  • I have a 99 Subaru. The clear coat is about 1/3 gone and continuing to peel off. Rust is not a big concern in my area.

    If I was to anything about I'd grab another hood in the same color from the junk yard. I know one of the local yards (https://www.picknpull.com) currently has a potential candidate I can pickup for $65. I've used the same yard to pickup various bits & pieces previously.

    Within a few years, fully self-driving cars have gone from science fiction to a very common reality for people in San Francisco with other places in the U.S. also testing the new technology. With innovations often come unintended consequences—one of which is the massive collection of data required.....

    Contra Costa Animal Services May Have to Euthanize Dogs Due to Lack of Space

    AN IMPORTANT MESSAGE FROM CCAS DIRECTOR BETH WARD

    We come to you with a heavy heart and a plea for help that we believe only a caring community like ours can answer. Our shelter is facing a critical situation – we are at full capacity, with more animals coming in each day, and space is running out faster than we can create it.

    Today, our animal care and medical staff have advised me that due to the high volume of dogs currently in our care and the number of new animals coming in each day outpacing those being adopted, rescued and returned to their families, we’re now faced with the impossible dilemma of having to make euthanasia decisions based on time and space. Sadly, this means that there is a potential that healthy/treatable animals may be euthanized to help make space for the other animals in our community needing help.

    We have been messaging over the last year that our shelter is experiencing overcrowding due to our adoption rate not being able to keep up with the incred

  • Clean paper and cardboard are easily recyclable and worth money. I first figured this out over 30 years ago while taking commuter trains into NYC.

    There were approximately one yard cubed wagons left on the platform to discard your already read newspapers for recycling. Local hustlers would often reassemble the papers and sell for half.

    At some point locking tops eere put on so it was difficult to remove the papers. This was because the agency collecting the old newspaper was making money from it.

    Fast forward. Some cities make it a crime to rummage through the recycling bins.

    There is money there.

    Many Mack NR stayed in NL once WW2 was over. This is one.

    American Brabant Mack history

    A beautiful Mack NR, a beautiful load of trees on a beautiful trailer, and a beautiful story. We came across it all at the Truckstar Festival.

    In principle, of course, the past is behind us. But not at the Truckstar Festival, where we encounter the beautiful yellow Mack NR Lanova Diesel of a very enthusiastic Willy Gaffert from Veghel between the classics and the Americans.

    Willy would like to tell you something about the truck and everything around it. In earlier years, the company – then still in the hands of Willy's father Theo – also had such a Mack. “The truck here is a restoration project,” says Willy. “But the great thing is that our driver Ties, who used to drive the original Mack, is here with us. We also named this Mack after him”, says Willy, who calls Ties to take a ph

    Oakland Animal Services Has Too Many Kittens!!

    cross-posted from: https://lemmy.world/post/1482233

    You guys, we have SO many kittens looking for loving homes right now. The adorable babies shown here are just a few of the dozens and dozens of wee ones currently available for adoption! They’re coming in faster than we can photograph and add them to our website, so to see all of our babycats and find the best fit for you, stop by the shelter this weekend to browse in person! We’re open for adoptions from noon to 3 p.m. Friday, Saturday, and Sunday, no appointment required, and adoption fees are still just $20 for a kitten or a pair* of kittens!

    Kittens do best with a buddy, so those 5 months or younger must be adopted with a littermate. Singletons and kittens in odd-numbered litters can be paired with another kitten at the shelter or adopted to a home with a young resident cat. Pairs are always two for the price of one!

    Is there like a Wikipedia of recipes?

    Not sure if I need to elaborate. I'm sick of having to scroll through an entire fucking novella just to find the recipe when I do a search for something.

    No Mow May and How I Learned I’m Allergic to Grass

    A couple of weeks ago I detailed how I was letting my grass do whatever it wanted until I found the foxtails were taking over.

    I took alergy pills for three days straight and was able to cut the grass and rake it without an allergy attack.

    I'm slowly adding natives in between my indoor projects.

    Oakland Animal Services has too many dogs and will be euthanizing several on 6/27. Please consider fostering or adopting one of these cuties.

    I have three rescues and cannot add another.
