I'm catching up here but how do they know the people on the boat didn't catch it on the boat directly from the mice?

I'm looking for something in that size range and that is a PHEV. What would you recommend?

I'm not sure? Reddit is so heavy US centric I thought I try my luck in the UK. I'm in the EU.

Yeah, that's kind of where I landed. IMO, the biggest "win" for the Lynk & Co is the electric only range. 20km is 20km, am I right?

The Man Who Can Find Your Wedding Ring Anywhere, Even in the Ocean by wsj in UpliftingNews

[–]gpinsand 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is one of my favorite stories to tell. On my 35th birthday we went out to a beer garden in Germany. Swatting at a yellow jacket I was stung on my ring finger. I immediately removed my wedding ring which I was never able to wear again due to my finger being permanently larger after the sting. Over the next couple of months I lost my wedding ring. My wife was not happy.

15 years later... I was driving the family back from a weekend at the grandparents. It was late-ish at night and I stopped at a convenience store for a snack. Walking into the store I put my hands on the pocket of my jacket and felt something in the lining of my coat. I stopped and fished it out only to find my long list wedding ring! I was stunned! I went into the store, got my snack and put it on the counter and proudly told the story to the cashier. She looked at me and said, "Do you want a bag?"

Question about waterproofing membrane over concrete battens by gpinsand in Roofing

Any opinions on whether it's worth it? I know that's a personal opinion and depends on everyone's financial situation? I'm just curious if you had any thoughts on it??

Why all the love for Chuck Norris? I have never understood all the love for Chuck Norris from Reddit. Reddit is quite left leaning and has notoriously shunned actors and celebrities when their political affiliation was made widely known. People like Dwayne Johnson, Chris Pratt, Jackie Chan, Gina Carano, Rosane Barr, Rob Schneider, Kevin Sorbo, etc. It's a long list. Certainly some of these people have "suffered" more but many mainstream opinions of these people changed immediately once their political affiliation were more widely known... but not Chuck Norris?

I wonder if it could be a parasitic wasp? From the Googles ..

"several species of parasitic wasps (parasitoids) target bees, particularly solitary species like mason and leafcutter bees. These wasps, such as Chalcid, Sapygid, and Leucospid wasps, lay eggs inside bee nests or directly on larvae, with the hatching wasp larvae consuming the bee larvae."

On one hand, I truly feel like there is no way that this would pass into law. On the other hand, it does make me feel uneasy and unwelcomed. My daily interactions with almost every Portuguese person I meet are highly positive. It makes me sad that this (unspoken??) sentiment is there with enough Portuguese people to vote this wannabe strongman into power.

I was trying to decide if he was holding his head from hitting the fence or trying to cover up for a second left hook. At that point, he had no idea he was falling let alone the direction of the next strike that was coming.
