Cheap car wash in BCS? by MrExtremer in aggies

Finfeather and Yegua is the self-service I go to. $0.25 per minute, 3-minute minimum.

When I'm feeling lazier and need some gas I go to the new HEB on Wellborn, $2 discount with gas making it I think $7-11 depending on the bells and whistles you want.

35th is more blatant to me--the gall of putting San Antonio and Austin in the same district is nuts. 2nd is obviously bad too but at least it's all Houston and suburbs.

Shocked nobody else mentioned it--you should give the other Mild High Club albums a listen if you haven't. Sketches was my first exposure to them and now I can't stop.

Well we can never know what it's heating until OP sends us an inside pic.

Edit: OP is literally the next post. I am not a patient man.

You're right, the current income inequality skews the average up, the median income is even worse. (Though I'm not sure the numbers above poster is using--census bureau has them more around $55k for 2015.)

I got a second gasket and now only use my old gasket for strongly aromatic dishes.

The giant dent appearing not where they are pounding is pretty weird physics.

You can fill a pool with anything you want (money, gold, coins, anything valuable really), but you must jump into it from 10 meters (~33 feet) and survive in order to keep what you filled it in with. What would you fill the pool up with? by tugnuggetss in AskReddit

They're wrong. Argon's just 25% heavier than oxygen, it's lighter than CO2, and there's a lot of mixing in your lungs so it's not gonna settle and stay put or anything. If you're inhaling enough argon that you're light-headed you probably need more ventilation in your shop.

You clicked on a link to "hentai2read.com" in a comment thread discussing a hentai, what did you expect?

I’m trying to install and build Geant4 on the most recent version of CentOS7, but when I get to the step when I run [make -jN] I get an error saying I have unsupported protocol for https. I’m very new to Geant4 and Linux overall, any help is greatly appreciated! by cperez12_ in Geant4

[–]bschroe 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If you curl --version, is https in the list of protocols? E.g., my output for curl --version is:

curl 7.58.0 (x86_64-pc-linux-gnu) libcurl/7.58.0 OpenSSL/1.1.0g zlib/1.2.11 libidn2/2.0.4 libpsl/0.19.1 (+libidn2/2.0.4) nghttp2/1.30.0 librtmp/2.3
Release-Date: 2018-01-24

Note the "Protocols: [...] https [...]".
A Stack Overflow answer suggests this was actually an issue with their configuration of curl.

If that doesn't do it, some of the other answers note a pickiness requiring double quotes rather than single for the URL to be parsed properly.

In the modern world brazing and soldering are rather interchangable. There isn't a really good delineation between them, just that brazing is hotter--the MAP-pro (and the hard stick solder) tells us this was in fact a braze.

But not for people whose bread and butter is brazing and/or soldering.
