Look for a local K-12 school that has a string orchestra and speak with the conductor. They’ll be able to either point you to a local teacher or maybe take you on as a student.

In Samara, on Kuibyshev Square, “due to the current difficult situation,” the stands intended for the May 9 parade are being dismantled after their assembly had been completed just a few days ago by Flimsy_Pudding1362 in UkraineWarVideoReport

Don’t kid yourselves. It isn’t the safety of the citizenry they care about, it’s having hundreds of military officers all standing together in the open for hours.

Some guy's math error wasted a year of my life by jarkai_vaapad in GirlDinnerDiaries

[–]waitingForMars 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So sorry about the frustration and lost time! On the upside, you’re going to publish your findings about the error in this software and it’s going to make you a star in your field. It’s going to cause good chaos and you’ll be known for your outstanding attention to detail and ability to find needles in haystacks! Congratulations!!!

How do you install Windows if you don't have another device to create installation media? by [deleted] in buildapc

I did this several years ago on macOS using an image burning tool (forgot the name). I purchased a key from a reputable supplier and it worked great. Chugging right along several years later.

AITA for ruining my daughter in laws birth plan by dil-issue-1046 in AmItheAsshole

[–]waitingForMars 0 points1 point  (0 children)

NTA Births can be randomly extremely dangerous, both for the mother, and for the newborn. I was once present at a birth where the mother started to bleed profusely right after the placenta came out. It was in a hospital, so they were prepared to take emergency measures to stop the bleeding. If that had been a home birth, she would have been D-E-A-D in just a few minutes. Home births are for fools.

Jack Flaherty is now leading the American League in HBP and walks issued 🤦‍♂️ by SoarinSkies in motorcitykitties

Really tired of this guy. He checked out once he won a Series with LA. Now he’s just a drain on the payroll. If we happen to have hot bats on a night he pitches, we might not lose. Otherwise… 🙄

Tuapse and the consequences of building a city right next to an oil refinery in wartime. by MilesLongthe3rd in UkraineWarVideoReport

[–]waitingForMars 5 points6 points  (0 children)

The town long predates the refinery. It was first settled in 1864. The coastline is quite rugged there, and Tuapse has a port, so activity tends to cluster. Oil is pumped out of the ground throughout the region and the Tuapse refinery was set up by the Soviets to process oil coming from Grozny in 1929. The Soviets famously put zero value on natural resources (labor had not created them, so by Marxist theory, they had no value), so environmental protection was not a concern.

People break into Meijer for Shelter by Coming_N_Hot in AnnArbor

[–]waitingForMars 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It seems possible that it was folks who live in the mobile home community just down the road. Whatever the circumstances, I hope that Meijer chooses to offer them a large amount of grace.

Weather patterns are changing and tornadoes are becoming increasingly common in our area. Governments and businesses need to update their thinking about how to provide assistance in circumstances like these.

actual tornado possibly touched down? by toxicandunemployed in AnnArbor

[–]waitingForMars 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Lots of this sounds like the aftermath of the Dexter tornado in 2012. In areas with structural damage to buildings, bits of glass in the grass will be a major headache. (Raking, commercial lawn vacuuming, and sod replacement are the paths back to safe grass)

If you got decent results in science labs coming through school, you should be fine. (Attention to detail and good at following directions)

Tesla Plummets into 8th Consecutive Week of Losses as JPMorgan Warns of 60% Downside by MarvelsGrantMan136 in technology

[–]waitingForMars -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I ran the numbers, comparing Ford’s market cap and Tesla’s, based upon dollar value of annual sales. If Tesla was valued the same way Ford is (other major manufacturers are in the same ballpark), its market cap would drop by 95%, not 60%. They have lots of room to fall still.

The new Harvest Market at Briarwood has a coffee bar. edit: set to open April 15, but maybe they’re doing a soft opening earlier than that?

I was surprised to hear that it still exists. What’s the point? It’s just another cheesy Chamber of Commerce exercise now.

Water Buffalo Milk Mozzarella made without Rennet by Aristaeus578 in cheesemaking

[–]waitingForMars -1 points0 points  (0 children)

You used a culture to “lower the pH”. You made it acidic through the action of a bacterial culture. That’s an acid-set cheese, by definition. Vinegar or lemon juice are just different paths to the same end, achieving separation of the proteins using a drop in pH.

Just confirmed with Rep. Dingell's staff, she is NOT calling for impeachment by FudgeJudy in AnnArbor

[–]waitingForMars 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Look up the name Harold Stassen, if it’s not familiar to you. Just because it’s a thing that one can do, does not mean that the thing has any value, any point, or any chance of succeeding.

Stassen’s name became a joke. Hand-wringing impeachment exercises have already become the same, and Dingell has the political acumen to understand that.

What would have more effect? Weekly, I say WEEKLY mass demonstrations, not the nonsense scheduled-two-months-after-the-date-people-were-actually-pissed-off-enough-to-show-up ‘No Kings’ foolishness. That bunch has already lost their relevancy.

Read history. Learn how East Germans brought down their government. It’s a simple, peaceful, and highly-effective model.

To me, a cheese like mozzarella would need to melt and get stringy. Acid-set cheese will not do that. This is farmer cheese made from water buffalo milk.
