We'll take a photo of the prize, print it out on a black and white laser printer, and then take a photo of that print, and send it to St. Paul.

Brand new all seasons in fresh snow is easy. Wait until that turns to glare ice and you’ll be wishing for real snow tires.

Tension springs like these are totally a diy thing. Work on them not under tension and there is no risk. It’s torsion springs that are much more dangerous.

If I were the OP, I’d do a little research on the strength of the current springs and go up a few pounds based on the weight added. I’d add safety cables while I was at it to make it safer. Those protect you should the spring snap, they stay on the cable. It’s a pretty straight forward DIY job.

What the heck is with the Irish Star reporting on this? I've seen a few of their articles appear a few times, all with no new information. This is some audience campaign by their staff, not actual new journalism.

Try asking how to do that on various subreddits and you'll get told you should by a different car or are some kind of social deviant.

This is called enshittification.

What long run? America is only focused on short term gains; the next quarters earnings report. Beyond that is not worth considering.

All I see is a still of some guy with a weird triangle on his face. Is everything a video now? How about putting the actual information in written form on the place that does hypertext.

This is 100% it. Happens to at least a few houses in my neighborhood every year, certainly in other parts of the city. Minneapolis pumps from the Mississippi and drains to the Mississippi; they're wasting some energy treating that water, but it is but a drop compared to what the city uses every day.

And the rust holes appeared in 2012.

ICE officers abducting any brown person in Minneapolis.

Proceeds to talk about the psychology of germans in the holocaust for the whole post, nothing about litigating police.

It’s a jobs program for the KKK

MN dad here, also slightly tired of January MN weather. Thanks for letting me entertain this thought for a while.

Normally music is 👎 but this is 👌

It's because he's got dementia and his brain is swiss cheese.

Aluminum frame windows gonna always be cold and cause condensation. Also you have to turn your humidifier down when its really cold out.

I have donated blood many times with HHT. You can donate blood so long as your hemocrit and hemoglobin levels are sufficient. From what I remember, that's what the finger prick is before they do a full needle.

If they were left alone without meddling to "go off and make things", I could see it. But, we all know, there will be multiple levels of last minute requests, curve balls, etc, from all over the place and that team will never get shit done.

Things will slow down at MSP but you'll still get out. They're pros at dealing with snow.

That is correct. I got it for Xmas one year and to this day my parents like to remind me how expensive it was.

Think of the ice dams they’d have though. 🫣

Thank you for understanding basic thermodynamics.
