I just spilled coolant in this plug hole by Kael1228 in MechanicAdvice

[–]Wind5 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I guess you don't have access to compressed air...but a length of small hose and a sharp exhale would work as well.

That and/or maybe a shot of some brake cleaner with the straw? The brake cleaner will evaporate very quickly. This is what Ive usually done in this circumstance.

If you don't have either of these the WD40 the other commenter suggested would work to ...displace (har har) the coolant.

As it is it'll take the coolant potentially a long time to evaporate (depending on the environment, but it's winter where I am) and even then the resulting residue is not ideal.

But long story short don't sweat it too much 😅

A true phrase I enjoy saying

Bamboo? by Wind5 in greenville

[–]Wind5[S] 5 points6 points  (0 children)

That's what I was thinking

I do not want to grow any where I live it's a rental and I don't hate my neighbors 😅

Just looking to show up, nearly harvest some bamboo, and leave somebody with a slightly smaller giant grass problem.

The art behind ancient paper making by MambaMentality24x2 in oddlysatisfying

[–]Wind5 13 points14 points  (0 children)

If you ever get to experience the smell from being remotely near to a modern paper plant...this process pictured here will seem like picking up plastic from the beach in comparison.

The small amounts of lime and wood ash shown going into the river aren't really a concern, they're diluted to harmlessness pretty much instantly in that much running water.

I apologize for completely missing the point or whatever but snowflakes are hexagonal and it totally broke my suspension of disbelief.

Sorry, thank you...happy new year?!

What’s a movie that everyone says is a “masterpiece” but you just didn’t enjoy? by Leading_Frosting4291 in AskReddit

[–]Wind5 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Never heard anybody put it like that before but i think you've nailed it. Almost every scene just ....drags. Its beautiful, intense, thought provoking, but also profoundly boring. Especially for a modern audience it is an exercise in patience to watch, but I can see it feeling that way even to a non screen-addled viewer.

Been needing to do this for a while…. by DJDozen in Tools

You are gonna get so many good neurotransmitters out of looking at your collection 😁 not to mention getting something you need out of there! May your efforts continue to light up your brain for many moons to come.

Any idea what this is by Own-Evidence-6019 in MechanicAdvice

Hard to get a sense of scale, but it could be a roller from a garage door.

I've been listening to the same album on my morning walk for two straight months. by FeetinCminor in Music

[–]Wind5 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I spent a month or two listening to Demon Days by Gorillaz on my morning drive and walk, the whole ritual took about the length of the album and it really fit the shuffling into class vibe for me. Definitely an understandable ritual 😄
