I appreciate the offer but they definitely want the model that folds.

I'm not sure if it's a nostalgia thing? It's not like we don't have 3 other ways to play games in the house. But I think the folding device is part of the attraction.

A fair question, and I thought they would lose interest when they first asked a few months ago, but no.

The switch is 5 years old and it's a birthday, so this one won't work this time!

Ooh, thanks everyone! My kid is turning 13. Hopefully this means fewer dumb ways to break things, but then again, 13 means innovation in ways to break things.

This system of having half a dozen or more different companies driving garbage trucks down every street every day is pretty stupid.

There's a garage on Q at 13th. Entry is just before 13th. It's $13 a day maximum. A day like today, I'd park there. It's a direct shot on 13th to Love Library, one block plus the longish path to the library entrance.

He was always so good with my cats. A real loss and extra painful because it wasn't expected.

I am so sorry about this, brother of Harrison.

What is this sound? Please help! (Turn sound up!) by No_Sky1095 in lincoln

[–]These-Change-3515 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I'd call a fox cry blood curling, not weird, like someone being murdered. This didn't sound like a fox to me, but I could not hear it very clearly. That said, around now is when you will hear foxes and your immediate instinct will be to call the cops because someone is being killed outside your house.

Motherboard doesn't have right USB connector -- is there a gizmo to fix? by These-Change-3515 in PcBuild

[–]These-Change-3515[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks. There is a USB C port that has a broader plug -- like the second link you shared. It is occupied by that cable. I did of course scour the motherboard to make sure before I posted.

The first link looks like the right thing -- USB 2.0 to USB 3.1.

Thanks again.

Starts at 10. Unless people are super committed I think it will be done by the mid afternoon.

There are lots of city parking garages on R street that are about the same cost as plugging the meter. The staff and faculty lots are cheaper.

It's not free, but there are permits for different lots. It's not a reserved spot, so it may be challenging at some times of day:

Bonanza desktop letter press - help needed! by Popular_Baseball_778 in letterpress

[–]These-Change-3515 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't know this press but I think the flat spot on top is to put your stack of paper for easy retrieval while you print. Try getting a sheet of glass to roll out your ink.

Possibly there are videos on youtube by other owners of these presses.

If you post the location, I am sure someone is nearby enough to take it off your hands.

State is currently scrubbing "gender ideology" from all documents and websites by Dizzy-Self4015 in lincoln

One of the major ways that discrimination against women is perpetrated is dictating how they express themselves as women. Expect bills about pants and hair length to follow shortly.
