I found this spider in my room, I live in minnesota, and this spider is about half an inch in length, has slightly furry legs, and very hard exoskeleton. It's also not brown, its black, and those lines are white.

It is indeed one of those jumping spiders. Be careful when you are trying to get hold of it
