That was my thought, until I went to their web site and read the product description.

Ideally, I would like to have appliances that excelled at something. And room for the variety this would require.

Most people that can be allowed to cook without parental supervision know they don’t actually “fry”. However, a light spray with a baking spray or mist of cooking oil allows for a really good substitute.

A brief look at that AI generated ad indicates they’ve probably stolen the aggregate global kitchen appliances market number from someplace else and used it as the ‘market’ for air fryers.

If you are paying more than $50 for an air fryer, hopefully it is because you are getting a device that is not a one trick pony. I paid a bit more than that for a device that, among other things, will let me bake chicken at one temp and air fry french fries at a different temp and time - and have them both finish at…

technically true if the seal is failing. It’s one way they create cataracts in pig eyes so opthamologists can learn how to do the surgery.

I don’t think parchment paper slows down air frying much. I slice a few x’s into parchment paper, put it on the crisping tray, and cook things for an extra minute or two.

The high end electric oven I have in my condo takes forever to heat up, and gets half the unit warm. The countertop convection oven/air fryer takes no time to heat up, doesn’t heat up several hundred square feet for a couple of hours, and does a better job doing small lot baking and making things like french frys and…

Given enough time, it will fire stuff up. :)

Conservatives only want less government when it is something that involves social welfare. Telling people how to live their lives? The GOP seems to have no problem with embracing this philosophy. From our wrist exercise routines to women’s uteruses to having no issue with telling kids “too many of you are fat, so go…

I specified because if I didn’t there is a decent chance someone would complain because the City of Angels isn’t banning pornhub.

I am shocked they didn’t include MTG’s statement about this being an act of terrorism. Or the idiot who said it was a result of out of control DEI in Baltimore. 

Worse. This is akin to saying “rental car in car accident was in an accident X months ago”. Completely different drivers and circumstances.

Agreed. The real reason Lego is probably annoyed by this is more likely to do with Trademark’s than “someone will think Lego toys committed crimes”.

Why? I use both Apple and HP stuff. If I am looking up how to do something on a specific device the search looks like “How to power reset Ipad/Iphone/Mac/HP model#”.

You are lucky. I actually had mine freeze up this morning. Absolutely non-responsive to anything AFTER the freaking morning alarm went off.

Might have something to do with the recent sale prices on tablets and Macs. I know my mother bought some new electronics this year (including her first laptop in 12 years) because the prices became super affordable, and she liked how I can do almost everything (including program her lights and shopping) from a tablet.

How is this a surprise or “new” information?

I got this. And I was really suspicious when the caller asked for me by the name I go by - not my legal name, which is what I register my devices under. But this isn’t unique to Apple.

Was wondering what happened to The Takeout. Comments and discussions about food topics were most of the reason for reading there. Without them, why bother? If I just want stories, I can just read sites like Eater, which has a better writing staff.
