    With a Windows computer, open up the Character Map under Windows Accessories. Then you find, select, copy and paste. It's generally more of a PITA than it's worth, because there are so many characters there that are not on a standard keyboard. Examples: ә ® ¼ ¢

    That reminds me, vaguely, of a tape splicing tool I had back in the days of open reel-to-reel machines.

    I've told you how much I like this headband magnifier: https://smile.amazon.com/gp/product/B0716ZCYXZ/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o03_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 Here's my evaluation of the twin LED lights, which are powered by 3 AAA batteries that you must supply yourself: they supply what I'd call a good...

    Also, with my big hands, it makes chord playing easier. Even though 1.75" is only 10 to 15 hundredths of an inch wider than off-the-shelf models, it reduces the number of times a finger touches more strings than are intended. The reduction is from "all the time" to "almost all the time".

    Here's the video of my guitar-in-progress, on YouTube which doesn't have the audio problem that FB has. The audio problems that you DO hear are due to the somewhat malfunctioning guitar amp that Andrew is using.

    Ajwain seed: a spice new to me (and I'll bet it's new to you also) that I just used for the first time. All I did was sprinkle a bunch on top of a Marie Callender Beef and Broccoli dinner. The spice is an instant hit with me. It's like hot pepper combined with more hot pepper combined with...

    Here's what ya gotta do to get sound: Hit the "full screen" icon. Then enable the sound, lower right corner of the screen. Knowing that it required multiple steps to enable the sound, I asked Andrew to upload the video to YouTube instead of Facebook. He hasn't had the chance to do that yet.

    My baby bro Andrew has assembled and is tweaking a fine electric guitar for me. I wonder if I'll be inspired to learn how to play. :thumb: The most unusual feature is the wide neck, 1.75" at the nut, that I had custom-built by Warmoth.

    Hopefully Diver was asking whether the magnifiers could physically be worn with glasses rather than whether the magnifiers coordinate well with Rx glasses. Since I don't wear glasses, I can only answer the former, and the answer is that I can put a pair of sunglasses on my head, then put the...

    Raindrops on roses and whiskers on kittens. Here are some of my favorite things about the Steam Crave Aromamizer Plus: The 10 ml capacity. The air intake, which keeps the tank from whistling while you vape due to the multiple small holes in the plate behind the air slot. I don't much care...

    I counted how many rectangles you get with 4 folds. I had to take both my shoes off to finish the count after using all 10 fingers. :lol::w00t: (Unless you're not folding all the layers with a couple of those folds.)

    After I swore off rayon wicks, I swore back on to rayon wicks. This left me with hundreds of squares of organic cotton. A square lasts a long time as a mini vape towel. I also use small washable towels made of either cloth or microfiber.

    YIHI SX550J G Class

    I believe that the charge state doesn't update until you remove the cable. You might even have to tap the fire button after removing the cable, not sure. At any rate, although I almost never charge my Mini G Class using the USB cable, I just now did so and it worked correctly. I'm using firmware...

    YIHI SX550J G Class

    I was wrong about that anyway. Those settings only change by pushing the joystick to the right. When you push it to the left it cycles through the modes, M1 through M5. I only use the "Standard" setting, so the only time I have to cycle through the soft, powerful and SQI settings is if I...

    Good luck with your SS 316L build. That's all I'm using these days. My coils aren't pretty but they work. I use the same TVF8 mod, but recently bought a 10 ml capacity Steam Vape Aromamizer Plus that I really like. The humongous build deck makes it easier than the smaller deck of the TVF8. What...

    After checking out the links for the recommended magnifiers I went looking for a bargain. These have a light built in, multiple lenses in different strengths, and pretty good Amazon reviews, for $13. I ordered one. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0716ZCYXZ
