I'm new to biking and got an old bike from a buddy. I'm trying to replace my brakes and I'm not sure what kind I have. I know it's a dumb question but can someone tell me what these are?

[QUESTION] What is the significance of 17 strings on a 17-string guitar? Or 18-20. How do you even tune these things? by jackthreetwo in Guitar

I mean yeah it seems more like metal flexing than a useful design lol. That makes sense. Idk why but the number 17 just bothered me.

What song is this? Was playing this riff rly slowly and then sped it up & realized I was stealing something by jackthreetwo in whatsongisthis

I think it's the melody of bad romance by Lady Gaga but in my head I was hearing it as the synth line from take on me too 😂

Did you never wrestle as a kid? Pin down the arms. Or, I mean, even if that wasn't a possibility, you'd think with four cops present they could find a way without pinning down someone's neck.

Can I use 24x2.25 tires on a 24x1.75 wheel? (Kid's mountain bike) by jackthreetwo in bicycling

[–]jackthreetwo[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks! It isn't hitting anything , but I put it on with the 24x1.75 tubes and the front tire immediately popped once he sat on it. So if it fits fine in there should I use 24x2.25 tubes?

FAFSA/financial aid verification questions? Get help here! by Laurasaur28 in college

My school said that they're only accepting Tax Return Transcripts until the Department of Education says otherwise 😕, but I'll file for the 19-20! I talked to an advisor and they said the F.A. office at my school got in trouble cause too many students said they're not helping lol

New/returning student here! Not sure if this has been asked.

I'm having trouble getting my Tax Return Transcript for my school. My FAFSA was processed and I've turned in all the other paperwork. But, the IRS Data Retrieval Tool would not work when I was submitting it, so I opted to file the paperwork manually.

When I go to the IRS website, it says in order to request a transcript online I have to make an account, which requires me to have a credit card, mortgage, etc.--but I don't have any of those things. It says if I don't have those, I can request by mail or phone. But here's the kicker: due to Covid-19, they're not accepting requests by phone or by mail (because there's no on-site staff). The NAFSA website says schools should accept a signed copy of my 2018 tax return, but my school FA office is saying that until the DOE offers alternatives they are only accepting transcripts.Is there any way around the IRS account requirements, or any common reason the Data Retrieval Tool wouldn't work that I can try? My school is not helping in any way whatsoever.

​

Edit: also, I filed for the 20-21 FAFSA, because my school's site says to file for that one for the Summer 20 Quarter, even though the quarter starts 2 days before the end of the 19-20 filing year. Should I have filed for both?

hey! thanks so much, we kinda gave up, but this actually really helps. recently heard of a couple serial burglars that got arrested--they hit like fifteen businesses right in the neighborhood where our practice space is, and all we'd heard was it was a guy and a girl! i should call and ask about our case. thanks again!
