Ninja Master Prep Professional. It’s a good system and I enjoy it when I use it, but my cooking needs very rarely call for it. I usually end up slicing foods by hand or using my hand blender. It’s just too bulky and requires too much cleaning to justify my use. While buying for quality can help, you definitely want to…

Ugh, at some point when I have money, I’ll need to invest in a proper grinder. I miss having that level of control over my coffee.

Looks less like that, and more like they just need to update it. This is what I got when I went to try it

I would think it’d be cheaper and better to build a system with infrared LEDs? Positioned correctly, they can obfuscate the Plate #, and maybe look like just badly reflected sun?

I don’t know how I’ve never heard of this site, but I’m so happy I know now.

Not quite math quirk, but rather a nice coincidence. Reminded me of this https://xkcd.com/687/

I had friends from the north east post memes about Portland’s inability to deal with snow. I chuckled, since they’re my friends, but then I remembered I live in Arizona, and if snow fell here, we’d think it was the apocalypse.

Hell, we did pretty much that when it “snowed” in February about 4-5 years back.

Uuuuuugggghhh!!! And here Lastpass’ autofill was so convenient....

Richard Blumenthal is the hero 2017 needs.

Once again, Carl has the best answer. Have a sous-vide coffee party. I’ll go if I’m free (and happen to be in that part of the country).

Bird! Purely for the AD reference!

Woo! Start of a new year!

I needed this information in my life.

This was a great way to end the year. I’m pretty happy with this story.

This is probably one of the most entitled things one could imagine in this situation, but is anyone else excited that we get Russians back as our antagonists in our narratives again? Outside of Nazis (who we also get as villains again, though less intimidating this time around), these guys make the best enemies.

This was amazing. I’ve no words for this beyond “I’m sharing this with everyone I know.” I think everyone needs to read this.

Alternative: Give it to me and I will eat it unbelievably fast. Like, you don’t even know.

Oh you’d be surprised. My mother has gotten away with store bought masa before. If you can make the filling good enough, no one, not even the judgiest of judgey nanas will dislike it.

Oh wow. This is very different from what I was expecting. I was thinking it’d either be a massive success or abject failure. This middling result though is.... hmm....

It honestly might come down to the hand made masa. Something a bit more uniform might give more accurate results. Additionally, if we’re going to go…

Admittedly, the level of culture change necessary probably isn’t worth it, but I think it’s far from dumb. You basically don’t want it out of habit and fear of change despite the article outlining why it’s just as safe.
