I edited my reply to Lee to make it clear which "//" I was referring to. I appreciate the suggestion but I really don't want to know more about URL's. Been there, done that, now it's someone else's...

After logging in or failing to a bunch of times I find that it's the "www." in my bookmark causing the problem. The password manager, cookies, "http" vs "https" and the single or double "/" don't...

I had no idea there was so much to consider in pencil sharpeners. Personally, I'm looking for one that's big and bulky and clips on my belt, to make up for some perceived inadequacies in my measuring...

I use KeepPassXC password manager and I always see this behavior if I'm trying to log in from https://www.sawmillcreek.org/forum.php. If I go to any sub-forum I can log in successfully. It's a quirk...

According to the BBC website tonight: "A hiker in the US has recorded two men pushing rocks from an ancient formation in Nevada...."

That video is getting some play. It was on ABC News with David...

Warren - That's not practical here but I can believe it worked.

The closet as framed will be 24 1/4" deep with 1/2" drywall, so not much depth available to lose. The back of the closet is the...

We're doing some remodeling to create a new master bedroom. We're carving a closet 6 feet wide by 2 feet deep out of the end of an unrelated bathroom and I want good sound insulation between the back...

I have a picture of the last inch of a neighbor's thumb which he removed almost exactly that way.

And some places require them, which can be a real surprise if you show up without one like you could just a few years ago.

Seems to depend on whom you ask. I got new tires from a tire shop a while back and they said I needed brakes, which they'd be happy to take care of at the same time. I declined.

A few months later...

I want a car you can slap on the rump and tell it to go get the groceries.

Ordered the glasses from Amazon Thursday morning and had them Friday morning. Also have a sextant which has a low-power telescope with sun filters. Sun is about 25% covered here right now and the...

You can be sure that when the time comes someone will be there to relieve your daughters of your collection, if you don't do it first.

BTW, I don't see a lot of women shooting at the range but...

I think a lot of things will work - vinegar is another one - but it can take months or a year for a toenail to grow out and you need to keep applying.

Borax AFAIK is close as close to non-toxic to humans as you can get, as long as you don't breathe it in powder form. It works by getting in the exterior skeletal parts of critters like ants and...

Looks like the CKS info is only available in the UK. Here are a couple of reputable sources for the rest of us:

When I first became aware of Coors, a lot more than 20 years ago, it was the closest thing there was to a craft beer, compared to the 3 or 4 beers widely available at the time. Not that anybody knew...

I had lunch with a guy a while back whose hobby was brewing beer. He told me he collected yeast by taking the tour of whichever brewery he was interested in and wiping a tissue on the floor.

And...

I wouldn't count on that.

Speaking as someone who was once a kid, I also wouldn't count on a gun being safe just because there is no ammo handy.

Assuming it's a bolt-action rifle, the bolt is easily removed without tools by holding the trigger back while moving the bolt to the rear. The bolt is easily hidden away somewhere else and without...

I agree with Chuck and FWIW, I've lived major parts of my life in 3 different parts of the country (NW, SE and E) and none are where Chuck lives.

Happy with our Brother HL-2270 B&W laser printer. It was passed down to us several years ago when wife's son upgraded. We're now on about our third no-name-brand cartridge from Amazon at a small...

I have both a USB microscope and a jeweler's loupe (14x) and agree that the microscope is overkill for sharpening while the magnifier is very useful. Also a lot more convenient. I haven't used the...

The white tape is sold as "Artist Tape". It sticks well and removes cleanly. Some of these have the tape folded and stuck to itself and both sides of the drive. I used it a lot for labels but I'm...

Yep. New carb still in the Amazon package waiting for me to install it. That's when I'll find out if the -1 version of the carb was the right one or I should have ordered -2, -3, or -4. No clue in...
