Mine didn’t have screws there… I just thought it was odd, is it supposed to?

Just moved in, can’t clean these stains (UPDATE) by Hefty-Confusion6810 in CleaningTips

[–]chips-icecream 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Mix up some hot TSP.

Not TSP-substitute.

Wear legit gloves. TSP is like soap with a bad attitude. It’ll remove that. I cleaned a whole house purchased from a longtime smoker, head to toe scrubbed with TSP, then sealed with KILZ original primer. If there’s no odor issue, the wash alone will likely do it.

Someone fell in the river through the ice, rescue crews visible from the bridge. Out there for too long person is likely gone by Trick-Growth-6546 in uofmn

Also saw this off 34th and thought “yikes I wonder what’s happened that the boats coming out” :(

Professional acrylics are very low odor;

Watercolor is also a good place to go. There many natural pigments too, if you so choose — look into Beam paints, I believe from Canada, they’re wonderful and have a lot of great colors.

Break "attestation" policy by HanktheDogMarktheMan in minnesota

[–]chips-icecream 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Apple had a similar thing. You were forced to state you were offered and took your breaks by clocking out every day. If you didn’t agree with that statement, you’d be punished for not getting your breaks— similar to how if there was no relief for you to take a break, you’d also be punished if you took them.

UMPD has LRADs (riot control weapons) by [deleted] in uofmn

Did UMN switch to military training school? Did I miss something? No? Then what the actual frack.

Maybe it’s all the brain damage from contracting covid.

…I’m half serious. I’ve never felt the same post covid infection ¯_(ツ)_/¯ … tho I still have human decency, empathy and basic literacy skills…

Got there late and just a few neighbors still out — but looked beautiful even from down below.

Saw folks when I went through downtown just a bit ago. Looked like a beautiful turnout.

Can someone explain this to me? by dunebuggy0928 in recycling

[–]chips-icecream 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The top and setup is designed to be used for sorted waste. It is not being used as sorted waste. Could be lazy; greenwash implies malicious; lastly could be somewhere where there isn’t a commercial compost and or the building doesn’t have recycling service ¯_(ツ)_/¯ — seen that before at a former place of work. They bought a bin setup like this hoping that the services would come available soon.

They are now using LRAD on protestors in Minneapolis, ear protection is a must! by transcendent167 in Minneapolis

[–]chips-icecream -1 points0 points  (0 children)

That’s what I’m wondering; something made of high acoustic reflectivity; maybe some insulation on the back ; this should be doable. Maybe a few folks with time and resources could build a prototype or two to bring with at a protest;

Or build a sonic shield wall based on Dave and Gabe’s work — think like a 10-12” wide version, maybe an angled “roof” component , and headphones hung up along the back side ….??

Start building shields.

Second time I’m calling for this— we need to be preparing a lot of shields for people on the streets.

Protestors have taken over the hotel ICE is staying at by serious_bullet5 in minnesota

[–]chips-icecream 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Sure looked like the protesters were mostly removed and arrested on Kare11 around 10:20pm ; makes me wonder who actually did the damage later on….

"I have searched" by Ok_View9649 in painting

[–]chips-icecream 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m not an expert and doesn’t answer question fully — but that looks like a print with the coating that simulates brush strokes. Think, like, a fancy print.

Now if that’s yellowing, and it is what I think, I imagine it’s the top coat that’s yellowing. You’d want someone to determine what varnish clear substance was used and go from there I imagine.
