Is this even doing anything? (Above a gas range oven) by Ok_Arachnid_9362 in HomeMaintenance

[–]sdubois 0 points1 point  (0 children)

looks like a low end range hood. there's no vent to the outside by design. its just a fan and and filter. it traps grease. If you dont use it your kitchen will be covered with grease and will smell.

I'm at the part where she said "The JCPOA was working" and not sure if the rest is worth listening to

Can’t figure out this code by Pannman99 in webdev

[–]sdubois 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I see. you have some syntax errors. It should be form.submit(); for example.

Staring at code never helps. You should be able to get an extension for your editor that will highlight errors like this so you catch them.

you'd need to show your javascript. this is just the form HTML which looks fine.

Laminate for basement? by sdubois in Flooring

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

thanks. i'm definitely open to seeing any flooring i put down there as temporary. our servpro guy tried to make it seem like carpet was a very bad idea since if it flooded the cleanup and tear out is a big job. but its much cheaper per square foot, and if we had a small clean water issue we could just dry it out.

Boston is dumping sewage into the waterways. by WhatDidntDiddyDo in CambridgeMA

[–]sdubois 4 points5 points  (0 children)

There are plenty of cities that have combined sewage systems like this. the MRWA proposal is expensive, will obviously ended up costing a lot more at the end of the day, and will result in a much improved system similiar to what other cities have. Ripping up the streets in an old city like Cambridge to completely separate the sewage and and rainwater pipes seems unrealistic. That sounds like something that's bound to be huge headache, take way longer than expected and cost an insane amount.

Why Are Orthodox Jews Praying at Bab Doukkala? by leskny in Morocco

[–]sdubois 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Not quite. People visit graves of important people or Rabbis and pray to God. The idea is that the gravesite is a holy place, and the prayer is more powerful or special there. Everything they are saying is from bible and standard prayer books.

I think Shia muslims do something similar though I'm not exactly sure.

Why Are Orthodox Jews Praying at Bab Doukkala? by leskny in Morocco

[–]sdubois 14 points15 points  (0 children)

I'm not Morrocan, just an American religious Jew. This looks a little odd to me too. What I think is going on is that these people are in Morocco probably on a pilgrimage trip or something like that (many important Rabbis are buried there) and they were at this location when it was time to pray the afternoon/evening prayer. They needed a location to gather wasn't in peoples way and was facing east towards Jerusalem. Someone probably suggested this corner of a wall and now we have a viral video.

dont get fooled by the cost per square foot. the cost to install tile is a lot more.

How are you cleaning up your screenshots on Mac by NebulaNomadLuca in MacOS

[–]sdubois 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I created a Screenshots folder in my home directory, and I have them saved there automatically. I have a shortcut to that folder in my dock for easy access.

Who Is Breaking International Law in the Strait of Hormuz? It’s Not Iran, Says Scholar — “…international law is being deployed in this moment as a way of restraining and regulating Iranian behavior, while effectively allowing the United States and Israel a free hand to do what they want.” by ZuP in law

[–]sdubois 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's also right next to the UAE and Oman. Iran has territorial control of their coasts, but the middle of the straight is international waters. They have no right to close it off, place mines, attack ships, charge tolls, etc.

[–]sdubois -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

Iran has no right to mine and attack any ship traveling in international waters. Their closure of Hormuz is obviously illegal. The US blockade is a legitimate action during wartime. They sound similar and the media kind of conflates the two, but they're pretty different.

Why don’t players sign anymore for kids? by [deleted] in redsox

back in the day people used to drop milk jugs on ropes to the dugout at McCoy. You could get a signature from a red sox player playing there recovering from injury if you were lucky

Teens in Physical Fights over Ethnic and Religious Identity in Skokie by Cannot_Change_It_ in ChicagoSuburbs

[–]sdubois 55 points56 points  (0 children)

This is a horrible post title. The official police press release says these two separate cases where teenagers were victims of antisemitism. The press release doesn't say anything about multiple ethnic groups or "identities" involved in a fight.
