My bank did that, until a few years ago. And not just 8 characters exactly, it had to be 8 DIGITS long. This bank actually told its customers to create a password exactly eight digits long.

It was, yes. I almost always buy thick cut, so I’m pretty certain it was. I picked up a package of bacon this morning - I’m inspired to try again.

I am 99% certain it was Private Selection bacon from Kroger, which is basically their store brand in nice packaging. But this was a month ago, so that may not be correct.

Can’t wait to see the comments people pick to post here.

Most things, I find, need a final sear after being sous vide’d. I have a little torch, but I rarely use it. I find that just getting a pan up to a screaming hot temp and rolling the chicken breast around in it for a half a minute (for example) is easier. Steaks, too. Pork.

I tried the bacon, just like they said to do it at ChefSteps.

Yeah... that’s not what we were complaining about. He was welcome to stay in Washington as long as he opened up a sizable amount of Federal aid in a timely manner.

I see socks listed here for $15 a pair and I start to think you’re insane, but then I remember I paid $15 for ExOfficio underwear on this site’s recommendation and oh my god you were so right.

I hated the florets as a kid and preferred the stems diced, but it’s just the opposite as an adult. And I came to realize it’s because my mom used to shave most of the skin off the stems before dicing - the tough, fibrous part is the outer skin, not the core of the stems.

Tell me about it. Earlier this month I was in NYC on business and stayed at the Marriott in Times Square. The GPS drift had me accessing stops 4-5 blocks away, and there’s so many of them in that area, that I was able to hit a dozen of them without leaving my room. I could even hit the gym at Times Square, but the…

It might be against the TOS, but if ever there’s a time to create a second account, I’d think this would be it, no?

There’s a town park near me that has a lot of PokeStops in it (I want to say there’s... 20... in all?) and many nights you’ll find people just like you described - selling Pokemon stickers and snacks and bottles of water out of the backs of their cars. One person I saw even had a three-foot diameter round PokeStop…

What utter bullshit. When the game starts off with a level playing field and then someone gets good enough at the game to amass enough power to change the rules and alter the playing field so nobody at the bottom has a chance at significant upward mobility, that’s a problem.

You’re talking about applications, I’m talking about tasks. I don’t care about not being able to run a Windows-specific piece of software if I can use a piece of Mac software to accomplish the same task.

Seriously, I don’t even need to run an emulator.

So I make a statement about their sales over the past decade, and you counter with the fact that sales in the last couple of quarters are a little bit down but they’re still turning in billions in profit? Cool.

No, you’re right. Expensive Windows-based laptops are unheard of.

I’ve been hearing that complaint for literally, not figuratively, a decade now. And year after year, Apple continues to have fantastic sales figures. People love the Mac.

Being a Libertarian doesn’t make you better. Makes you worse, in fact. The most selfish popular ideology on the planet; that’s nothing to be proud of. You guys love your guns, you want to smoke pot, but you want to hoard your money and screw society. Fucking assholes.
