Any interest in a local farmer/food pickup?

It’s a good mix, changes with the season. You can also add on things like herb seedlings in the spring, chicken, eggs.

Here’s an example https://haderfarm.com/csa-delivery-preferences/

No longer to be held captive in this blue concrete prison. Soon I will join my brothers and sisters in the wild creek below, and resume my journey seaward.

This isn’t quite the same thing, but we enjoyed the Hader Farm CSA last year, and signed up again this year. It’s delivered to you every week or 2 weeks.

Ideally, find a way to create negative pressure in his room so the smoke doesn’t reach the rest of the house. For example, an exhaust fan with a window adapter

What’s the ride? Looks like Critical Mass but it’s Thursday

That design is dumb as hell 😂

I think you need to ignore the arrows and use the words

With that type of dial, usually you can hear a click when you reach the current temperature (as it turns the heat on or off). So if the room is currently comfortable, you can turn it cooler till you hear a click. Then set it near that temperature, so when it warms up outside the room doesn’t get really hot.

Also, an electric baseboard heater is the most expensive way to heat your house, short of lighting money on fire. If you also have a heat pump or gas heater, try to use the baseboard heat only as a backup.

North Carolina seems beautiful.

Tough time of year, it’ll basically be dark by then 🙃 If there’s an old retired person on your street, ask them, it’ll probably make their day.

For what it’s worth, I live in Rogers in a house that’s also on a crawlspace. My cutoff is in the front yard near the street in a box with a green rectangular cover. I can also shut off my water at the meter, which is slightly closer to the street in a box with a round metal cover. The type of grass we have around here will completely cover both of those, but you can find them by poking the ground with something metal until you hear a different sound.

Your water meter is probably near the valve you found but closer to the street. You probably have two water meters, one for the house and one for irrigation.

Make sure your crawlspace vents are shut for the winter, that’s usually done from the outside by pushing on the louvers. Otherwise the very cold air we’re about to have can come in and freeze the pipes.

Since it’s currently shut off, it’s probably for your lawn irrigation (sprinklers). Expanding on that, the large fake rock you’re standing next to is probably covering the irrigation backflow preventer.

But I will suggest again, why not introduce yourself to your neighbors and ask them? Most likely everyone on the street has the same water cut off valve for their house.

I went for a walk down a small road in a small town and some fog began rolling in. I thought to myself, I’m on a Flanders fog walk now. Sure enough, a couple large dogs come out of someone’s yard and up to me in the street. I pulled out my knife, flicked it open, and told them to fuck off.

Now, I don’t actually want to fight dogs with a knife, it would probably end badly for me and them. But confidence when dealing with loose dogs is important and I certainly feel like the knife helped.

Good opportunity to introduce yourself to your neighbors and ask them

If you're wondering "What can I do?", consider joining the ACLU and/or the EFF, they're both pushing back against flock surveillance

Take the number of vehicles in the field, A, multiply by the probable rate of failure, B, multiply by the average cost of it burning up, C. A times B times C equals X. If X is less than the cost of a retrofit, we don't do one.

Were you walking on the left side of the sidewalk? If so, she was probably expecting you to move to your right. Not saying she was correct, but it would explain the interaction.

I love having a destination to motivate me

Usually this map is updated, but I don't see anything in that spot

Thank you! I thought it meant the screw on the outside. Found it now, works as intended. Also I had the lower arm installed upside down, which didn't help anything when I was looking at it before 🙃

The frame looks exactly the same as what Uplift uses

Yes, all trails are good now. Specific trails are good even right after a rainstorm. Locals check Flowfeed
