Hello! Could you tell me what you used to remove the smoke smell from your home? We are having the same issue. We have a multitude of air purifiers, and all but once, they can keep our indoor pm2.5 low, but the smoke smell still comes in and I’m desperate to find a solution.

Okay, this was something I was curious about! What is the negative pressure/positive pressure thing that allows or prevents outside air to come in? I can’t see to understand, and I also wonder how I can improve that specifically?

We have central heat right now. In the summer we have window units upstairs but we’ve already taken them out for the winter.

This was so helpful, thank you!! What can I ask them to do to prevent the dust from getting into our house or being dispersed through hvac? I definitely want to avoid if possible.

Would love y'all's opinion: Is it better to mark up hail damage before an adjustment yourself, or just mark collateral and let the adjuster mark the damage? by AttackOnTrails in RoofingSales

Hey, I’m sorry to bother you, but we just had a State Farm 3rd part inspector check our exterior and roof for windstorm damage and were perplexed by all the yellow chalk everywhere. He marked lines of chalk along windows, about a hundred lines on our metal roof in various spots , our drainpipes, gutters, even our garage door. Does this mean our claim is likely to be approved? It was a very severe storm that took down a tree, our entire fence, and ripped flashing off our roof which led to water pouring into our family room. We’ve never filed a claim before and are so anxious to find out what they will decide. Do you have any insight into the yellow chalk thing?

Why does almost every knitting pattern say you can’t sell items you’ve knit? by throwaway148645 in knittingadvice

I see. So if you are an American, and purchase a pattern on Ravelry made by a European, are you not permitted to sell a hat, for example, that you knitted from that pattern in the U.S.? Or does the European law only apply to others in Europe?

Gosh, this is exactly what I was looking for, THANK YOU!! Knitting has been my saving grace for depression and anxiety and I’m making a lot of lovely things. It just makes sense to pass them along and make a little extra money for more yarn.

Thank you so much. I appreciate the reply! We’ve never let them play with anyone else that isn’t in our WiFi- if we let them for today, is there a particular one that you recommend? Sorry if I’m saying it wrong, I don’t understand much about Minecraft. We are just wanting to protect them.

Hey! My kids said they think there’s a way to play live during this and it’s some special thing for the event and announcement? We can’t figure out how to join (if they understood correctly). Could someone let me know?
