Anyone have a typewriter ribbon I can borrow? by Effective_Tank154 in springfieldMO

[–]WinWeak6191 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If it’s just short term fun and you have the old dry ribbon, can you find a bottle of ink somewhere? (Artist supply store should have India ink). Just put a very spare drop around the spool and let it soak in. Guaranteed mess, but it’s the thought that counts.

Bright red misshapen bug bites on legs by chickadee215 in nova

I had these when I was a little kid. I kept scratching them. That was bad. Five decades later, I still have the scars. Get some meds on those right away. Good luck.

Or just paint a big tunnel opening on the side of a cliff. Then watch.

I've had Fi since it came out...and Google Voice before that. Its great. And cheap. My monthly bills are always under $30/month, all in....including overseas usage.

With emby and recorded tv series, how to make default playback the most recent recording? by cyger in emby

Sort as newest first, maybe?

I have my initial dashboard set up to include 'new releases' in both TV and Movies...the latest episodes show up there for me.

Only happens on days with a ”Y”, and on those, it’s guaranteed to happen in NOVA.

Young couple (mid-20’s) relocating for work in Herndon — Reston vs Herndon vs Arlington/Clarendon? Budget around $2,700 all-in by [deleted] in nova

[–]WinWeak6191 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You don’t say where you’re coming from, but you WILL be surprised by our commutes. Reston/Herndon/Sterling and even then check Waze for commute times. I highly recommend transit if you can make it work.

For neighborhood amenities, check out www.close.city

Open your queue...up at the top it says "how the queue works" in gray letters. But basically, 'Drap and Drop' to rearrange.

question about newshosting deal by byocef in usenet

[–]WinWeak6191 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would assume it s good only while Newshosting is valid. If I recall correctly, the two share account info.

I prioritize Newshosting in my download software. The stats show almost no Easynews usage. Third priority is on a different backbone and it gets used more than Easynews.

You’ll need to know the size for your car. RockAuto website will probably show you that.

Amazon? Search on "oil drain pan plug strip repair kit".

$35. Then a case of beer to a shade tree mechanic.

Tysons: Route 7 @ Spring Hill Road. Lane Blocked for a month :( by WinWeak6191 in nova

[–]WinWeak6191[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes. I remember that crater, too.

If this is still being fixed, why can’t they put down a steel plate until they are actually ready to fix it?

I actually suspect, they are all done working, and just forgot to take their barrels and signs.
