When I was serving, group dinners were the worst. You always had the one person who ordered nothing because they were broke, the one who ordered a lot but didn’t tip, and the one who insisted that their appetizer’s cost be split across a few other people.

People who give gifts are the worst, amirite?

Exceeding the rated carry is a great way to break your things.

My wife and I do this each year, except she does cookies and I do candy. Having company while you’re grinding em out is great stuff, and there are many times when having an extra set of hands is useful, but not always needed. I am on the stovetop and she’s in the oven.

Modern multi-compressor refrigerators are likely going to be too heavy for this thing.

White Sauce + Anything over toast is good news.

Overheated chocolate won’t really stick together like seized chocolate, you’re gonna have a crummy mess. If the chocolate didn’t temper right, and you didn’t overheat it, you can just try again.

Failing to temper chocolate and having your chocolate seize are not the same thing. Tempering chocolate is about temperature control.

This isn’t a deal.. You can find the TV for the exact same price on Amazon, and for a dollar more on Best Buy’s website. These products have inflated retail prices so that everyone can sell it for 20-30% off. Also Best Buy and Amazon say list is $3800. Walmart has a habit of inflating retail price to make their sales

There is a benefit from putting oil in your cooking pasta. It reduces the amount of foam produced, and can help prevent boil-over. (Also, if you pressure cook things like pasta or beans, tossing a bit of oil in there will help foaming as well, helping keep the valve clear). A tablespoon is more than enough for a

The whole “Elf on the Shelf” thing sounds like terrorism and bad parenting. I’ve got a 7 year old and I don’t think it would be appropriate to gaslight him to believe he was under constant surveillance and failure to demonstrate good behavior would result in not getting gifts at christmas.

The best way to end a pay-it-forward chain is to appreciate the person’s generosity and take your drink.

I have a G502. When I first got it, the resistance of the click wheel made my finger tired. I eventually got used to it. I wish they made a version with a rubberized wheel. I rarely use the free wheeling mode because I spend most of my time reading stuff. It does have good balance and a comfortable grip.

The first year I spatchcocked a bird in a convection oven, the turkey was done 2 hours early. It really messed up the schedule. But every year after, it made life much better.

As someone who has served in the past. Hoarding dirty dishes on your table is in my top 3 most annoying things customers do. Nothing worse than having to bus 20 plates at once after you politely decline the after dinner mint.

Canola oil WILL dry. It takes longer than a “drying oil”, but it will eventually dry.

Twisted Metal 2 was soo much better than Twisted Metal.

It is not difficult to make hardware that is technically superior to the Nintendo Switch. It uses a last generation mobile chip (a generation ago). The difficult part is selling it at a profit and delivering sufficient content to drive sales.

A general purpose processor can be programmed to be indistinguishable from the equivalent chip logic. When you program hardware to behave like other hardware, that is called emulation. FPGA emulation is not fundamentally different from other forms of emulation.
