10:20 Got awakened by a huge commotion outside, after sleeping about 9 hours. They came to put bark dust around the building. Looks like again redwood. It is the third time sine i live here.
I am afraid they are going to put too much like they once did in 2016 i guess. I was positive i posted somewhere, maybe it was on g+, now gone. In some areas around the apartment there was up to one foot.
But even it if it's not too much, every week when they blow the parking lot (and the areas with red bark) they raise it up on the walls. Red on blue.
Redwood dust is special. It contains a lot of tannins which give it the red color which makes it very resistant to rotting. So it never turns into soil, it just gets washed away in time. In this post is shown what they did when they tested the hydrant. But stronger rains or even a leaking sprinkler did the same.
BTW the custom made aluminum tub i installed in the catch can got loose and was leaking oil and i got again some oil in the intake (i think). Got to vacuum it today.
Yeah i can feel the dust in my eyes and throat. The vibration from the huge blowing machine brings the finest particles inside.
2:23 I figure most people don't understand when i say google puts a cap on my searches. The way i do (searches), i go on the right side of my similarity blog (actually i have all those links in a favorites folder in the browser). I open one of the lists, in this case Japanese actors born after 50. I go at the year i am interested (usually target birthday -4). Then it starts the interesting part.
I have installed in my browser linkclump. This alows me to open simultaneously several links. That is if i have on the screen a text with several links in it, i can open them all in one move.
I go full screen (F11) to see as many as possible. With the keys Ctrl and Z pressed, i do a selection with the mouse. I see on the screen an orange rectangle that i move around to encompass my links. Then linkclump opens all those links each in a separate tab in the upper bar in the browser, the tab bar. Usually i open about 40 links at a time (a lot) in 40 tabs. Then i go from tab to tab with Ctrl/Tab and see the pictures, looking for resemblances.
It is ok for a while but lately. after 3 or 4 screens with 40 links open, google starts asking me if i'm a robot, which actually i am not, and then it gives me visual quizzes which are most annoying. Then it lets me open another 40. As if all was not annoying enough, i mean the searches themselves. If it wasn't for this procedure, i would have never been able to do any similarity. Google is now taking it away from me.
2:40 Anybody could remember me not to go again on I5 north of Portland, in the State of WaShinto? I went yesterday again after i done fixing the catch can. Like always, in the last part of my trip, a number of cars got in front me, though far enough so i can't see them because of the other cars and released all kinda toxic fumes.
If others got affected? They probably did, but they went somewhere to recuperate. Instead me, i went to Lucky Eagle casino, and after i ate, i fell asleep in the car (I also only had 5 and a half hours of sleep and worked all morning at the car).
3:30 Tricks getting more and more elaborate. I went to take the recyclables in the small bins near the west bin. There was a black sack next to it and wanted to throw it inside. However the sack was full of glass items so i just let it there, after i touched it.
They were numerous old items i did not have the time to pick last time the garbage truck driver let me for a very short time grab items from under the bin. They sit there and stink. There is not enough room for me to get in between the bin and the cage to get those as i planned.
I don't know what happened, last Thursday they did not pick the bin next to the office at all.
There are open bags in the other bins. It smells like garbage on the first day i remember this year with 75 degrees outside.
