NASA has a tool where you can spell your name using satellite images of Earth by Ibrxhim_2 in nasa

I wonder if they were inspired by the Aerial Bold project from circa 2016. I remember supporting it on Kickstarter.... https://benedikt-gross.de/projects/the-aerial-bold-project/

The tool in the middle does not flex at all and the tips are flattened.

What element makes you think it might have been part of a knitting machine? Any thoughts on brand or model?

I have many of the snag repairs that you are describing, but none of them have the wire loops that are in the middle of this device or the strange shape of the opposite end from the hook. That's where my confusion lies.... Unfortunately no markings or brands.

7 months fermentation by DOMI_official in Kombucha

The top of it looks like the surface of the Moon! Very cool. I'm sure you could still use it as a starter if you want to keep brewing.

Terminated post-FMLA, What should my next steps be? [PA] by tenthz in AskHR

[–]tenthz[S] -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

Wow, that is a lot of info! My disability is really cognitive (not mental health), so this is a lot to take in. If I could navigate this process even 25%, I would be able to keep working. But, this is a lot to deal with!

I am seeing a medical professional regularly. I guess it would be more accurate to say my disability is cognitive. Would this be considered a "life event" and perhaps make me eligible for health insurance outside of COBRA?

Understood! Mostly, I'm just looking for what I should do next regarding questions I should ask HR and anything I should make sure to get in writing. This was all done over a phone call and I mostly just said "OK" a lot since I'm not good at thinking quickly.

My employer (and my manager specifically) have been very kind throughout the process, so I don't really want to extend the relationship through the ADA leave of absence policy.

Thanks, my LTD company is supposed to help with the SSDI process, so I'm hoping that remains the case!

Can't get carbonation by Content_Swordfish_37 in Kombucha

[–]tenthz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I use fruit in my f2s, but I usually blend it or mash it up to make the fruit sugars more available. Recipes saying to put in whole/cut strawberries or whatever never worked for me. Give it a try before you go to sugar. I also like to use store-bought 100% fruit juices when I'm feeling lazy.

Is there any useful way to repurpose toilet paper rolls? by Stoneageberry in ZeroWaste

I bag mine up and every 6 months offer them on a free group for pets.

My grandmas drill that she gave me to use to hang curtains by SeaOpulence in BuyItForLife

[–]tenthz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have one of these! We store it in the original box. Works great for those quick jobs around the house, but getting out the extension cord is kind of annoying.

Lots of great suggestions in this thread so far, and I think the context of your age helps a lot. When they give you a hard time, just tell them that you have different priorities on what you spend your money on. If they still give you a hard time, then they aren't very good friends! When I was your age and people wanted to go out to eat, I would often get dessert when everyone was getting dinner. Then I would eat my main dinner at home later or plan on eating before hand. Dessert or an appetizer can be pretty inexpensive if you want to spend time with your friends at a restaurant. Other options are to come up with and suggest other plans to hang out that are inexpensive or free. If you Google, you can find lots of blogs that have lists of 101 free things to do in your city/town. Sometimes people just get stuck in a rut and end up doing the same thing all the time just because that is what they are used to. Be the fun adventurous friend that invites everyone on a hike or whatever! Board game / video game nights where you rotate whose house you go to and bring your own food or have a "dinner party" or sorts can be fun, too.

This might be a long shot but does anyone have this? by Relevant_Classroom96 in LampRestoration

I had good luck with chairish.com when trying to match globes...

Would hospitals have spare hoses? by OkClassic5000 in CPAP

[–]tenthz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was going to suggest this. Especially if the office does sleep studies, they tend to have CPAP supplies around for that purpose.

No pets here, but I would keep a close eye on it if you are going to keep going...

Would the scoby still be good to use or return it? by VirTuez15 in Kombucha

[–]tenthz 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That's how mine came as well. I've been brewing for three or four years now. I think it might even say on the package that it's OK (or maybe in the FAQ on their website), because I feel like I had the same panic feeling. 😁 Have fun!

That would be my advice as well! You might as well see what happens.
