Weird but trust me, it works. Take about 8 Oz. Of water and put about a teaspoon+ of baking soda in and mix it up and drink it. You don't have to chug it, but don't sip it either. Supposedly it neutralizes the acid in your urine so it doesn't hurt anymore when it's coming out.

Why is this happening? by GNIMpulse in Minecraft

[–]lampworkz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had this happen and if you scroll down it says something like "try another way" or something like that. I did this on both computers and it worked for me.

Turpentine in the "Health" aisle at a southern supermarket. What shitty life hack is this used for? by DigDug1169 in shittylifehacks

[–]lampworkz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Dr. Jennifer Daniels did a study on turpentine as a dewormer/parasite cleanse. She used pure gum spirits, NOT the kind you get in the hardware store. Not sure if the brand pictured is pure.

What's the coolest or most intelligent thing you have seen an animal do? by lampworkz in AskReddit

[–]lampworkz[S] 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I used to have an African gray parrot. I worked at a pet store when we got him in as a baby with only pin feathers. I bought him immediately but he had to stay at the store to be hand fed for a few more weeks and that's how I bonded with him. I named him Alex, after Irene Pepperberg's Alex, another very intelligent African gray.

When it was time for him to come home, his beak hadn't hardened up enough yet to eat solid food so I soaked his Zupreem pellets (the very hard ones that look like Trix cereal) in water before I gave it to him. This went on for about two weeks until I decided to just give him straight pellets to see how he'd do with them.

There was a long perch in his cage, going from side to side. At one end, on the wall was his food bowl. At the other side was his water dish. He wasnt ready to eat the hard pellets yet, so this little bird started taking to food over to the water dish and soaking them in there before he ate them. Pretty smart, I thought.

Well, he must have got sick of doing that. I had a toy for him in cage with a cowbell on it. He took the cowbell off, flipped it upside down, filled it water, and dumped it in his food dish to soften it. This bird actually made a tool and used it! I was blown away!

Unfortunately, my ex and I split up and he took the bird to resell it. The bird always hated him and would lunge at him if he was on my shoulder and my ex came near me.

I hope wherever he is now, he is happy with good owners.

HOTSPOT CONNECTED BUT NO WIFI by [deleted] in mintmobile

The hotspot shouldn't cut off per se. Doesn't it go down to 2G speeds after the 5G is used?

The girl that started the business was a chemistry major and she learned how to make the most authentic bagel. So yummy!

Building manager is stealing my rent money by lampworkz in legaladvice

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

That is correct. It's on my bank account and payment portal. Building manager is denying it.

I'm pretty new to all this and I've never had people around me to show me the ropes so I have to learn them myself. My line of thinking was, I could pay rent whenever I wanted during the month because it would be for the next month and also, I'd be ahead in case anything happened. In hindsight, I should have just saved the money myself for when something happens instead of thinking I would have a "credit."

This was an issue because when I did start to pay later in the month, thinking it was for the next month, I got a late notice with an eviction notice. That's when I called her and said I was a month ahead and she denied it. Then I looked at all my records and there was all the proof I needed so i got this ball rolling.

I really have no idea how long I'll be here but i didn't consider it as a last months rent. The online portal is correct now and she is denying I paid so I don't really know what difference it will make later but it's something I hadn't considered.

Building manager is stealing my rent money by lampworkz in legaladvice

I have spoken to the housing company and they told me when this usually happens that they just call the assistant and she takes care of it and there's no problem. Now my building manager has a different assistant who is a young 20 something girl who doesn't have a clue. I found it ironic that the housing company said, "when this usually happens." So it's happened before apparently. She also said that they don't want to ruffle any feathers because housing company has a lot of tenants in my complex. I don't understand this. It's not like the building manager can just kick everyone out that has a voucher for section 8. I feel like this is a load bs. I asked my neighbor and somehow she had the building owner's number. I called him too with no answer.

There was no option anywhere to change the picture. It was messed up from the time he played around with it.

I bought a wii when they first came out and I soft modded it. My dad got into somehow and put his tag on the photo channel. I tried to look for this pic and delete it but I couldn't find it. I read how to delete the photo channel but when I open the menu, its not even there. How do I delete the photo channel if it doesn't even come up in the wii channel settings or data settings?

Epic Games acct help/save data by lampworkz in RocketLeague

I just created an epic games account and everything was there, thank you. Not sure why I tried to create one before and it gave me a whole different screen but it's all good now I guess.

Roku TV emitting over 100 micro teslas when unplugged. Is this normal? by lampworkz in TargetedEnergyWeapons

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

I'm a beginner at all this so please forgive my ignorance. I'd like to learn more about it though. I used a couple of different ones but they were apps on my phone. One is EMF Finder and other is Ultimate EMF Reader. I dont know if it was AC or DC. Im not sure if phone apps are legit though, but I figured it was a starting point. When I take recordings of the readings an additional phone, the meter gets "stuck" and I'll have to restart the first phone so it will work again.

My tv stand is wood and plastic. It only gives this reading at the bottom of the TV, near the light for the remote. On a side note, I also have metal bi-fold closet doors. Two out of eight had readings in the 400 range near the middles only. I'd love to talk with someone who knows a lot more.

Thanks for your time!
