6% or better white vinegar in the rinse cycle removes exercise smell from synthetic clothes too. IME it’s cheaper and better than the sanitizer. I just put a cup of it in the bleach cup in the washer. It vaporizes in the dryer. I wash everything in cold water with mild detergent and vinegar.

You can also soak clothes in it to remove concrete/cement.


PSA for everyone reading this: don't mix vinegar with bleach. Hypochlorite decomposes at pH < 11 and releases chlorine gas.

Unfortunately vinegar was unsuccessful for me. I tried that, borax, and baking powder - all on different washes of course without any change. The laundry sanitizer immediately fixed the problem.

Yeah the writing tastes like processed food. There’s no substance just “here’s some stuff people do” but nothing about why it works or where you could learn more.

Just ask "More James Burke Connections".

Frequently you have to mention specific laws and describe how your situation matches the law or your complaints get ignored. At least this is how it works when you call your insurance company and make similar complaints.

Is there a way to get kids books on Kobo? Every time we fly we carry like 10 pounds of board books to keep my son entertained. It would be awesome to have an ebook reader with his board books and other stuff on it.

Aren't those designed fit the page, in other words, to keep it looking the same, it would have to be squished (and unreadable) to fit on the screen?

Or it could just be a series of images. I’m looking for a way of not taking 10 pounds of books on a trip not perfect fidelity.

Which might be easier since the surface is larger

Might as well just go whole hog and change the entire computer architecture, then. A lot of the arguments against this change boil down to computers and software code don’t work well with this today.

I think you’ll find that words have definitions that can be changed.

USB-HID is standardized. But you still have to represent the device model somehow. You can never get away from that.

The government controls imports by tariffs and inspections and so on.

This is pretty contrived. Politics is as simple as “Janey and I really want to swim in the ocean” vs “I wanted to go to the lake by my house.” The politics are how that conflict gets resolved peacefully.
