The article says the city built a water processing plant to help remove stuff including PCBs from the river flow in 2014, before the suit started in 2016.

It's not enough, but let's consider the $160 million as repaying the city for that initial capital expenditure.

Were they? What happened??

[โ€“] RubberElectrons 5 points 1 day ago

Yep. Does an economic system that rewards infinite growth make sense on a planet with finite resources?

I've got a co-worker who wrapped his in iridescent vinyl... Like it wasn't ostentatious enough ๐Ÿ™„

Are you sure? Think critically.

It's tough everywhere I guess. Countryside is quiet, but there's no shoulder in some curvy spots, and some drivers didn't want to wait to pass.

I ride almost everywhere, but that does sound quite risky. Plenty of spots like that in the US as well when you're in the countryside, unfortunately.

That's excellent!

The ones I met at my current job are both laid back, the journey(wo)man is a kind older church-going lady who likes pink work gloves while working on 3ph 480 lines, the apprentice is my age and speaks softly but has a lot of excellent tattoos and probably dirt bikes.

So iunno. Other than being good and reliable electricians, they may be crazy in different ways, but I like em both.

Yep, been working with the C6 for a bit, I quite like it.

Anyone have input here?

I'm trying to decide which I like, yammie noob had a cool vid comparing the two with the xsr seemingly on top, but spec-wise, the z900 should be wild. I'm aware there are tune and exhaust kits to wake the undertuned z900 up.

I like spirited riding, but mostly on straights as I roar off to a campsite in the mountains. What do you folks think?

Google Pay alternative?

Hey there, I'm looking for an alternative to Google pay that'll allow me to use NFC payments etc. Thoughts?

I don't have a Google account, nor am I interested in opening one.

E: Just to clarify, the payment part would be convenient, more annoying is how I don't get to use a single place for my subway/gym/ticketmaster passes.

 

What a way to start the day. Had a spare, so it added a few minutes to my morning. Carefully cleaned the dust from around the plug, swapped, started and rode.

NBD, but what the fuck?

Exploring the city, it feels both dark and somehow inviting. New experience for sure.

Wish I could figure out how to attach multiple photos in voyager.

Gluten free? (self.lemmybread)
submitted 6 months ago* (last edited 6 months ago) by RubberElectrons to c/lemmybread
 

Hey everyone, does anyone know how to make gluten free bread that might be as soft and fluffy as that previously posted Japanese milk bread appears to be?

 

So, after watching "Plagues and pleasures on the Salton sea" (available on YouTube for free), I decided to look into what was happening to it.

Looks like we actually may help with restoration. But what does that mean, where are we getting the water for it? Will that money actually get to us?

 

Hey there, Looking for some inspiration for guys getups. Lots of sites like dollskill etc have really limited options for dudes (but that's the case generally).

Thanks for any ideas you'd be kind enough to share!

 

Love this guy.
