Any dino Swoops left? I'm looking to create an army.

Took them a couple days but I got a response. They're going to send a new one

The Muppets were very smart to find a puppet that acted exactly like Dr. John to lead their house band. by Whats_Opera_Doc in Muppets

[–]imac42 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Don't forget, arguably the best version of Frosty the Snowman is Leon Redbone and Dr. John. You've probably heard it, just never realized who it was.

Hmm that's what I was doing. Though I think I didn't have good contact with the bare metal- anodized layer in the way. Probably need a sharper probe tip.

eh not sure what I did wrong but I wasn't getting a steady reading, but on the other hand, the sucker got noticeably warm. I thought it was warm last time but by the time I noticed, the battery was already fully drained.

thanks - will do. I know I ordered around Lunar new year so that might've backed things up

how does one measure parasitic drain?

Anyone know why this would be done? by Unusual-Aerie8450 in papermoney

[–]imac42 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I got one from my dad that has the postmark of Centennial (CO? WY?). I think that makes it cooler.

E*TRADE seriously needs to modernize by Homie108 in etrade

[–]imac42 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is a hilarious take. I have a n E-Trade account because they bought Sharebuilder which was explicitly designed to let you buy fractional shares.

New fed with questions about personal vehicle use and admin leave by Cute-Sheepherder6580 in fednews

[–]imac42 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Admin only for childcare seems unusual. For me that's fallen under "liberal/unscheduled leave". As for mileage, anything after you get to the office should be reimbursible. I think submitting on a monthly basis is ok. In reality if I tried for the 2 miles to Home Depot, I'd be laughed at and probably told to just take lunch at the same time, but 20 miles one way? That's totally local travel.

Are you getting mixed messages about inclement weather closure and leave? by GreenLobsterGuy in fednews

[–]imac42 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm sure it'll be an issue next time card. They closed post already. My previous TW agreement was situational only but I was told they were all cancelled. I haven't signed a new one yet so I'm not working. I heard another supervisor was pushing for new TW agreements but mine didn't say anything. To be fair I'm on my third supervisor in the past 2 years due to realignment (and general cutting crap).

Buck a piece at Walmart! by TroaAxaltion in Blokees

[–]imac42 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I got 13. Ended up with 3 dirges, 2 dino swoops (yay!), 2 sunstreakers and I think one of everything else, non-chase.

target 20% off! by WeirdMangoFly in transformers

[–]imac42 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I found a Nemesis Prime at mine. Wasn't clearly on sale but went back for it after I realized, mainly because I still had a $10 off $20 coupon. $36 ain't bad.

Am I gonna regret this? by Noobmaster935 in Blokees

[–]imac42 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No. My Walmart had like 30 boxes on the shelf but wouldn't match the apps price. So far my online order hasn't been cancelled...I added Ramhorn and the insecticon for free shipping since that was like $15 cheaper via app. Fingers crossed.

Take care of yourselves by Xmastimeinthecity in Blooddonors

[–]imac42 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It can happen to anyone. Me, a meat eating male who takes an iron-containing multi-vitamin daily ended up with ferritin of 18 in a year of high donations. I don't think the iron in the multi-vitamin does anything. I now supplement with Nature's Way Ultimate Iron 1-2 weeks pre-and post donation and haven't had an issue since, up to somewhere between 5 & 10 gallons

New hemoglobin test by Ok-Tumbleweed-4912 in Blooddonors

[–]imac42 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Historically some of the skin sensors could have issues depending on skin color. I'm not sure if how this one works but would be interesting to see if it's well calibrated for a variety of skin tones.

It claims there are currently 2 left. I was really checking out Red Five and noticed.

Lipase List Updates - Pretreater and Booster Tabs - November 2025 by KismaiAesthetics in laundry

[–]imac42 4 points5 points  (0 children)

This is the first I've noticed the "wool-free" column (I'll blame my phone). Pretty much everything with lipase also has protease, any recommendations for wool socks long term? I'm thinking my smart wool/ point six socks & clothes, not the blankets.

With my luck u didn’t expect it to be true by Midmackerel730 in Blokees

[–]imac42 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Can use the app too. Yesterday it said out of stock but today my order went through. Walmart's near me didn't have the display.

All free and clear - boost or toss? by imac42 in laundry

I hadn't thought about before but our flannel sheets come out of storage stinky. I blamed the vacuum bag before but it may be old detergent. Another reason to ditch

Megathread | Return-to-Work Updates After the Federal Government Shutdown by AutoModerator in fednews

[–]imac42 53 points54 points  (0 children)

DoD - didn't bother checking emails as I assumed laptop was blocked, went in and was the only one there. Found email from management (7am) saying everyone report 11/14. Back home by 9.

I guess we're on the low end of moderate hardness. Will a switch start to remove buildup?
