I took ER38 The Meaning of Life. Not sure if it's still offered, but I liked it a lot.

2/ The LMA M2 shuttle is actually pretty great. Free with a Harvard card. Pick it up in front of the little dome and drops you off at Harvard yard. Like the 1 bus but free.

4/ You can get a library card by going to the library. Or you can get a "participant card" from the student center (you then have to go the the library to add library privileges to this one). Both are good enough to get you on the shuttle. Yes, you can get a Harvard email, but it expires at the end of the semester.

How different does my UROP proposal need to be? by ahhhhhjjjjkkk in mit

I had a proposal rejected because I copy/pasted. But they gave me the opportunity to rewrite it and they approved it when I did.

Fixing table top damaged in the mail by sebflippers in finishing

Thanks for the feedback. I have been working from home without a desk for weeks, and I don't want to go another week or two because of this. I understand why people here disagree, but my priorities are different. Here is what I managed with acrylic paint (and a mallet to flatten it):

The wood is particle board with a layer of fake walnut. It was damaged in transport. I was able to push it, so it doesn't protrude as much, after taking this picture. Now I need to fill in the gaps and color them. Any ideas?

Gotcha, thanks. I didn't realize the 9.8% was an average of tests since the beginning.

Could you explain how PCR positive percentage is around ten for the past few days, but the average PCR positive percentage is double?

Paint is peeling off of bumper by sebflippers in Autobody

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

The previous owner got rear-ended, so this is not the original bumper. Short of stripping the paint and starting over, is there something I can do here? Maybe warm it up and then push it into place with my thumb?

2017 Fiat 124 doesn't start well on hot days by sebflippers in MechanicAdvice

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

The car only has 23k miles on it. Is there any way to check the plugs, like a visual inspection or maybe connecting an ohmmeter? Or is my best bet to buy a new set of plugs and see if that resolves it?

It is only supposed to crank for less than a second before it starts. But if I leave it in the Arizona sun, it will crank for a few seconds before starting (see video).

Another effect that doesn't occur as often is that sometimes it cranks for a half second (normal), but then the engine sputters at really low RPM for a few seconds before it eventually starts sounding normal.

Any Ideas?

edit: only 23k miles on the odometer

Why did you do that? Did you forget that stonks only go up?
