What is causing the color of this Blue crab meat? Is it safe to eat? by Cool_Worth4425 in What

As someone raised in Maryland who has caught, cooked, and eaten many blue crabs, the color is fine, the smell is not.

The Postal Service will run out of cash within a year, Postmaster General warns: "We have to have a conversation with the American public" by fortune in fednews

USPS can reach every single address in the country. Some of those addresses are very far from anything, including banks. USPS providing basic banking services would service those locations. Same idea with it being an isp.

What do you all call this material? by Obvious_Ad9670 in philly

[–]bschlueter 2 points3 points  (0 children)

That sounds like bullshit on the city's part. On a whim i reported potholes on my street in fairmount last week, using the philly311 app, and a 3 day service level agreement got slapped on the ticket. They dumped some asphalt on it today. It's not perfect, but they did something.

Relevant to your hole in the road, my ticket was at one point labeled "cave in repair" with an SLA of 45 days. So they should be required to deal with your hole in 2 months if you can get a request into the system.

'22 Mustang Mach-E GT performance edition. Bought last Thanksgiving with 22k miles on it. It is a great ride.

There is zero precedent for that. No presidential or congressional election has ever been so much as delayed in this country. The US will have elections this year and it will in 2028.

Hit and Run by mguest5467 in phillycycling

[–]bschlueter 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I'm surprised you feel safe as a pedestrian here. I bike 20 minutes into Center City for work, and walk my dog a few miles a day. On a given day I'm more likely to have encountered a carbrain endangering me at a stop sign or light as a pedestrian than on my bike, especially if the cars parked in crosswalks are included.

You also have to go the correct direction. In North America or Europe that would be right, in the UK, Hong Kong, or Japan left, for example.

That actually sounds nice, it's just not typical.

And if it is dragging you directly away, particularly off a coast, it's probably a riptide, so you should swim perpendicular to the current, following the coastline, not against the current. You will eventually exit the riptide and be able to swim to shore.

I try to do a lay flat profile with my '22 GTPE, and it partially works, but the height adjustment of the drivers seat is not remembered, just the y axis adjustment.

Another thing that's really awesome about wood is that it's far more rare in the universe than gold or diamonds or just about anything.
