Would that help the larger city climate? Well sure, if it’s trees. A giant umbrella over the top of a skyscraper? Who knows
DempstersBox@lemmy.worldto News@lemmy.world•A man has been killed after opening fire at a U.S. Border Patrol Facility in Texas, authorities say.4·5 days agoModern, American, styrofoam doesn’t do that

DempstersBox@lemmy.worldto Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•What is a good example of a necessary evil?3·7 days agoHAHAHHAHA yeah
Yeah they are
I don’t even smoke, but fuck you.

DempstersBox@lemmy.worldtoMicroblog Memes@lemmy.world•So you don't have a doctor's note?English741·1 month agoI’m pissed on her behalf!
Need documentation over 28 weeks, kay, sure, that’s stupid bullshit on its own, but whatevs.
But she’s not. And then they fucking wheedle her.
Fuck off. 24 weeks. Conversation over. Shut the fuck up and do your job.
DempstersBox@lemmy.worldto Mildly Infuriating@lemmy.world•To join Facebook these days, one must record a video selfieEnglish26·2 months agoLiterally over ten years ago, they wanted a photo of my government ID.
Haven’t had an account since
DempstersBox@lemmy.worldto Technology@lemmy.world•Infrared contact lenses let you see in the darkEnglish1·2 months agoSo, the articles are old, but chlorin e6 mixed with insulin and DMSO in saline gives a temporary boost to nightvision.
Sounds fucking awesome, and the ingredients all seem fairly easy to acquire. No commercial product, but why would there be?
DempstersBox@lemmy.worldto Piracy@lemm.ee•Is there a good place to find Haynes manuals?English1·3 months agoHaynes honestly suck. Chiltons are better, but still aren’t what I suggest looking for: the manufacturers service manual.
Last time I bought a haynes manual was when I was searching for a vacuum leak. The diagrams for the lines in the haynes were pretty much “yeah, they’re in there. Black. Connect to things”
Threw the fucking thing in a puddle and did it the hard way. In the rain.

DempstersBox@lemmy.worldOPto Linux@lemmy.world•Hi, I need in-person help from a computer whiz-can travelEnglish71·3 months agoOh no, I called a place billing themselves as pc/linux/security specialists, the guy refused, and then tried to get me to buy his IP cameras. Which I’m not opposed to swapping the control box out, but I am not in the slightest interested in replacing the cameras. They’re good cams.
As for why not do it myself, I am not computer competent to the level of having any idea where to begin. But y’all motherfuckers get doom to run on microwaves and shit these days, so I was hoping someone would be like, ‘oh, probably not that hard’. Merp
DempstersBox@lemmy.worldOPto Linux@lemmy.world•Hi, I need in-person help from a computer whiz-can travelEnglish4·3 months agoAh, this is all above my pay grade. Which is why I’m looking for someone else to help.
I get that from searches on ddg, no vpn.
RDX still works, it the only way I can search reddit now
DempstersBox@lemmy.worldto Curated Tumblr@sh.itjust.works•Fabric softener is a scamEnglish2·4 months agoHE soap sounds like marketing bullshit.
When I was making my own detergent, I used regular baking soda, did not bake it at all, borax, and table salt. 50/50 borax and soda, and then like 10-20% portion of salt.
Absolutely neutral scent.
