My dentist’s recommendation was to buy the cheapest Philips Sonicare I could find, but then get the fancy DiamondClean replacement heads. I actually bought the second-cheapest because the cheapest had half the vibration speed of the rest of the line at the time.

Both. In most tournaments, you play a two-game match each round. There’s an alternate format where you only play one side each round, and there’s a bidding mechanism for choosing which side, but it’s not that widely used.

The Android universe is the setting for the reboot. It’s named that because the setting was first used for the board game Android.

Bad publicity gives the Runner money during runs, as Cecilia said, rather than doing nothing until it hits a threshold and then making the Corp lose. Traces are not blind bidding, and Runners can contest them without having specific cards installed. Having an identity card that is active from the start of the game

Oh, that is such a good idea!

It definitely was not great.

I think they have enough sensors and processing power in there that they *could* do the sorts of things fuzzy logic rice cookers do. But they pretty clearly don’t. Maybe some future version will feature improved rice.

I’ve made yogurt in my Instant Pot a couple times. It’s pretty easy, the Team Yogurt people have just gone into a lot of detail and added some fancy extra steps that I think can be safely skipped. I use the milk I usually buy; I don’t really worry about condensation drips; I don’t hold the milk at 180 F for five

So in the terms of loyalty cards, [...] it makes perfect sense and provides not only secure transactional information across ALL your stores, but ensures that customer information and their habits are kept private.

I looked it up, and the wine box is supposed to stop the wine from going off quickly after you open it, by keeping air from it.

I don’t think they’re changing the billing dates now. They’ve just explained that they plan to change them in the future, and that’s why the fee is set as if each pledge is a separate transaction.

Treacly nut-and-custard pies...

Make a three-course dinner for yourself. Use your nicest dishes, tablecloth/placemat, etc. If you feel really fancy, add a candle. Maybe try to ignore your phone while you eat.

Carrot pie? It tastes a lot like pumpkin pie, but it might sidestep your aversion to eating the same type of plant twice in one meal.

The Simpsons lied to you. The coriolis effect is too weak to have a noticeable influence on which way toilets swirl. It works better on very large things, like hurricanes.

The nut section seems to be largely about gluten-free food rather than vegan food, for some reason? Vegan pie crust and bread are not that hard to make or buy.

Store-bought canned green beans are better than frozen. But home-canned green beans from the garden are better still. They’re so good they might even be worth the effort of growing and canning them.

Same! The turkey gets carved in the kitchen.

Traditional roasting leaves the breast more exposed than the legs, which are shielded by the sides of the pan[.]
