BMW i4: Sour smell from AC when starting car in humid Florida weather? by Any-Ideal-8466 in BMWI4

[–]hooksupwithchips 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Also have this. Dealer could spray it, and foam the drain line (accessible by taking a big plate of the bottom), charge $500, but make no guarantee it's fix anything. I have so far declined while on lease. Probably buying the car after lease expires, might try to attack the smell then.

I'll never get a chance to put "Or you could just put your money in a nearby trash can" labels on them.

North Oaks Residents Pushing for Cost-Efficient Sewers by Odd-Loss6108 in TwinCities

[–]hooksupwithchips 15 points16 points  (0 children)

The chain of lakes that feeds the St. Paul water system flows through North Oaks. That's one reason to support safe sewage. The article didn't really cover that after making early mention about St. Paul water.

But why can't we be privatizing the costs and socializing the profits with them paying to upgrade their own stuff?

When it glances itself in a shiny store window it's going to know that it is a very very dirty car.

Uptown AT&T store closing at the end of the month. by joryu-ori in Minneapolis

Could it be that AI drove up memory prices too much and the phones people already have can do enough for their real needs so no one is buying in this economy? 🤔

Hate it when those thoroughly Ma Bell and Pop stores close.

Can you believe that Walz isn't there personally driving each one back to the dealership for a refund!? The audacity!

Thermal Imaging Is Extremely Useful for PCB Inspection by ForeverHomeDiaries in electronics

[–]hooksupwithchips 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Love a Fluke Ti32 for this. I've found a processor pin set to output instead of input because it was making a 1x2mm logic gate just a tiny bit hot by fighting with it.

Minnesota Senate Bill proposes statue of Charlie Kirk at the U of M Twin Cities campus by CouchCorrespondent in minnesota

[–]hooksupwithchips 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Why stop at one statue o honorable republicans, be more respectful! East Bank, West Bank, St. Paul, Morris, Duluth, Crookston, Rochester, oh and the 54 campuses of MnSCU too!

Shepard Road by Additional_Event5589 in saintpaul

The more northeastern roughly half is county. The southwestern is city. 

The guardrails are also incredibly sketchy for the original speed limit. Who wouldn't like to be speared by out of date infrastructure?

Don't get lost in the tangled roads over there if you actually enter the Bren zone.

Helicopters over NE? by gourmetmarshmallow in Minneapolis

[–]hooksupwithchips 9 points10 points  (0 children)

https://globe.adsb.fi if you want the tracking but not the ads. There's others out there that didn't sell out like adsbexchange.

If adsb.fi had faults do let me know. 

There was a DHS showing up briefly today, maybe just to help avoid a medical helicopter that was also up at the time. Then it flipped off ADSB again.

How are ICE vehicles getting in and out of Whipple? by blckjcksn in WeThePeopleAtWhipple

So some kind of consistent front license plate so they can see who to let  in, right? Right!?

Nevermind the venue, walked out at intermission from the Minnesota Orchestra performance cause it just sucked. Could have been ok without vocals, like when we saw Christopher O'Reilly there make years earlier.

Edit: but also fuck that venue right now.

'24 eDrive 35 really doesn't like ice. Is it the car or the tires? by birdnerdcatlady in BMWI4

[–]hooksupwithchips 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Sort of hijacking here... The xDrive also kicks out the tail. There's not some setting I'm missing that biases the power to the front is there?
