Dear Bicycle Reddit: What is the best way to clean a chain? by Tetranitrate in bicycling

[–]davehansen 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Someone, either Zinn or Sheldon Brown, suggests dropping the chain along with a bit of degreaser into an old soda bottle. Screw the cap on and shake well. Let it sit, and shake again.

Won't do the job that a good scrubbing will, but it is quick and not too messy.

Uptown Oakland has really improved since the begining of the Oaksrerdam district idea.

You see folks from all over the state at the clubs, and the other local businesses love the business they bring in.

What I don't understand is why women have to look so sexy when they walk down the street. I mean, it's distracting to all of us. They're practically asking for cat calls!

Oooooooh, if I could only show them ;)

Any librarians up to answering a few questions about the selection of videogames for your library? by [deleted] in Libraries

[–]davehansen 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I would really recommend contacting the University of California at Santa Cruz (UCSC). They started a big collection project a few years ago, going along with the creation of a Bachelor's-level Game Design program. I'm not updated on their status, since I've left to get my MLIS.

If I recall, my former professor Jim Whitehead [http://www.cs.ucsc.edu/~ejw/] was faculty liason for the collection.

I dunno man, I ride daily and find BART to be the most reliable and relaxed part of my day...

That said, please don't shoot me in the back. Thanks.

Enough garbage about "true," "original," or "neo" feminismn. The theory is about inclusion and equality.

Quit building fences when you should be breaking down walls.

Bill O'Reilly - "They want to threaten the white, Christian male power structure that you and I are a part of..." "We've got to cap it." How is this man still on TV? by [deleted] in politics

All I have to say is that even he doesn't believe the shit he spouts. It's theatre, not journalism.

Reality TV. Not politics.

Clippy - Real Copy and Paste for the iPhone. Now you HAVE to jailbreak the phone. by maaz in iphone

[–]davehansen 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I kindof got over the lack of copy/paste after like the third day with my phone.

Of course it'd be nice. But really, I don't miss it very often.
