Give CopyQ a try. Open source, cross platform clipboard manager with tons of features.

One example option is being able to only ever paste plain text. It also has lots of programming hooks, I have a few for doing things like converting a line-feed delimited list into one delimited by commas and quoting the values.

I'd tip out the pot and gently separate the saplings. Hopefully they're not too entangled. Go ahead and replant in the ground with the same potting soil, taking care to make the holes deep enough for the tap roots. They're long!

We have the Brother HL-L3230CDW and are happy with it. Works fine with inexpensive toner cartridges from Amazon.

What was your project?

[–] DavidP@midwest.social 3 points 1 year ago

There's a groove on the insides of the walls that the plywood fits into.

Plain wood glue for the corners but the bottom is not glued in order to let the sides move with humidity changes.

Our toddler messing with this glass scale was the inspiration! I bet an off the shelf letter holder would work.

Router table but yeah a table saw would do it too.

Yep FB is the way to go for local sales. I'm in a large metro area and exclusively use it.

He still does Red Meat?? That was my favorite part of the reading the (paper issues of) Onion way back in the day.

What was it for you as a kid?

 

I know this isn't strictly about birding but who doesn't like Eastern Bluebirds?

So this spring I put up two bluebird nest boxes (X-Box design on EMT posts) only to have the bluebirds repeatedly evicted by house sparrows.

A few times I ready about using fishing line to deter the house sparrows, and it has actually worked! I attached two horizontal beams to the tops of the houses and then hung monofilament weighted with large hex nuts.

That was about six weeks ago and now we have a bluebird family in one and house wrens in the other.

Edit - on my lappy so I'll post some links
