@snoproscott These temporary plugs are fine for the sidewall.
The package will tell you not to do that, but that’s just because they can’t legally recommend it.
Pop one of these string plugs in, drive to the tire shop, and you saved $150 on a tow

@pokerpimpmanual @snoproscott To get home so you can safely park, take off the wheel, transport it to a tire shop in a different vehicle and replace the tire
English
@Mvice89 @snoproscott You can do it to get home.
The main reason tire shops don’t do it is because their insurance won’t let them take on that liability. The second reason is the plugs they use have a flat disc that would separate from the flexing

@_midori_me_ @megievalist They only needed one rooster so the young males would get eaten unless they needed to replace the old rooster and hens would be butchered when they stopped yielding as many eggs
English
@megievalist Not a whole ass chicken though. Not unless peasant meant you were actually well-off but just not of noble birth. Most peasants ate little meat except on holidays. A whole chicken would be a huge waste of money to a family struggling to get by.
English
Meat was much more accessible in the Middle Ages than people realize, even for common folk!
The Notorious J.O.V.@whotfisjovana
imagine thinking peasants could afford rotisserie chicken

@Ghost_RC_ @megievalist White bread just required boulting of the flour.
Intensive relative to modern industrial processes and probably seen as a waste of time for most
English
@megievalist A sophisticated preparation like rotisserie chicken was not very accessible. And neither was white bread

@bilio_muydunuz Why do people do this to their floors?
Too much can go wrong with it down the line.

@grubbybroom @Craquerweit7 @AngelMD1103 @TeamTrump47 Power is transmitted on the residential in 3 phases, most residences have 2 of the phases fed in, 1 phase to neutral gives you ~110~120VAC power, you sway the neutral on the circuit in question for the other phase and you’re feeding 220~240VAC through that circuit

A woman shares a story about moving into a small rental just two months ago. Everything seemed normal—until her electric bill came in insanely high, almost matching what she used to pay in a much bigger home. On top of that, her water heater kept tripping. Something felt off, but she couldn’t figure out what.
While she was on vacation, the previous owner’s caregiver left a note on her door: “Check your power… the neighbor might be stealing it.”
When she got back, she called the police, the power company, and the new owners. After investigating, they discovered an underground cable running from her property straight into the neighbor’s house—powering their entire home.
Turns out, the same neighbor had been doing this even when the previous owner—a terminally ill elderly man—lived there and couldn’t afford his bills.
That’s not just theft—that’s calculated, long-term exploitation of someone vulnerable. It’s one thing to scam a system… it’s another to literally drain power from a sick old man and then continue doing it to the next person like nothing happened. That’s next-level cold.
What would you do if you found out your neighbor had been secretly using your electricity this whole time—press charges or just cut them off and move on?

@NickMills6987 @symplyDAPO What’s the purpose of standing in the alley with a gun and pointing the gun at the guy over the box-spring being placed in the communal dumpster?
A reasonable person is going to say there wasn’t a great reason to generate this conflict

@symplyDAPO Crazy he got 14 years for this. Apparently self defense doesn’t matter.

I haven't had a burger from Wendy's in forever wow lol

@SomaKazima2 I tried In-N-Out one time and it was disappointing. It was McDonald’s tier.
Wendy’s is the closest to burgers I make at home

@BetwayAnalysis @MadDuck68317982 We have dangerous areas but the difference is staggering. If you walk around SA the likelihood that an individual you come across is one that will kill your for a simple robbery is 20x greater or more than the same of an individual encountered in the US
English
@AuggieBeee @MadDuck68317982 Don’t lie, you have drug cartels in Miami and ICE killing people, gang problems, rap group fight, projects fighting, school shootings, mass shootings, bombings…
Now you want me to believe 12 murders a day… meanwhile you are also killing people elsewhere in the world.
English
This isn't a scene from a low budget movie, this is daily occurrence in South Africa....
English
@BetwayAnalysis @MadDuck68317982 In the United States about 12 murders happen every day.
In South Africa it’s 4-8 times this despite having 1/5 of the population and even a smaller fraction of the geographic area

@tlm202103 @KitchenBites_ For the yeast to ferment. Otherwise the dough will not rise. If you’re just using baking powder there’s no need to add sugar but it may taste funny.
Alternatively you can add amylase to the dough and this will allow some of the starches to break down into sugars for the yeast

@Giovannikv77 @abierkhatib @NimaTavRood He literally mentions religious society would not want their leaders to have a tainted marriage.
English
@abierkhatib @NimaTavRood Is it relevant to the topic though?
Why would he add “and his wife is cheating on him” as if he’s to blame for it?

@unlimited_ls Christmas with his son?
What about her Christmas with her family?

🚨BREAKING: FedEx driver who abducted and strangled 7-year-old Athena Strand told investigators, 'If you give me a month with my family, so I can have Christmas with my son, I'll tell you everything.'
Tanner Horner, 34, opened the interview saying, “I imagine that you have, basically, a list and bullet points that you want to know from me.”
Horner then said, “There’s only one thing in this world that I want. I want a month.”
He added, “You can’t do that, I understand. Even if y’all have to put an ankle monitor on me, GPS monitor, check-ups with you.”
Horner told investigators, “If you give me a month with my family, so I can have Christmas with my son, I’ll tell you everything.”
When told that was not possible while he was under arrest for murder, he replied, “Either way, that’s basically my price.”

🚨BREAKING: The FedEx driver who abducted and strangled 7-year-old girl in North Texas complained to police about missing out on watching his son grow up after being arrested for murder Detectives urged Tanner Horner, 34, to help locate 7-year-old Athena Strand’s body after he admitted, “I killed her” and said he “kind of tossed her” remains in bushes Horner begged officers to “shoot him” after confessing to the murder “I’m going to miss out on this part of my child’s f***ing life, OK? I can’t.” “This isn’t one of those probation things. This is one of those I’m going away for a long time things, and I’m going to miss out on all of my f***ing son’s life. I would rather die.” The detective told him, “This is a hard thing. It is a hard thing. But I tell you this, Tanner, you’re going to be OK.” Horner answered, “No. I’m not. I’m going to miss out on all my son’s Christmases, his birthdays, and growing up. I’m going to miss out on everything. All because I listened to some stupid voice that isn’t probably even there.”

Just take the money. Imagine being offered more than a million dollars for a house worth a third of that amount and saying no. In what world does that make sense

@matt19154 @SusieM414141 The point being? Drive somewhere else away from the police station where these people could have more easily killed her?

@AuggieBeee @SusieM414141 I mean your missing the point i guess 🤷🏻♂️
