Hey now - Phoenix (and the surrounding area) is only uninhabitable for the 3 months a year that it doesn’t go below 100 degrees. I live in Chandler and I see the Waymo cars in my neighborhood all the time. Actually saw one of the Intel self driving cars the other day too. I applied for the program - figure I have…

Not quite as much as Big Bang Theory though, strangely.

These things are amazing. I have 4 of them that I’ve picked up over the years. They also work well if you pour out your bottle of beer into it to use as a cup.

Nothing I can say here that hasn’t been said 300 times already. I am firmly convinced that the pre-requisite to be TV executive must be a lobotomy. I’m trying to come up with the perfect analogy for this that encapsulates just how dumb this is, because to buy a show, and then remove the part of the show that makes…

It is incredibly uncommon to get salmonella poisoning from eggs. Not quite “One in a million” but the chances of you getting sick from an undercooked or raw egg in your lifetime is almost nil. The CDC recommendations from that link for the cooking of eggs are laughably bad: “Cook eggs until both the yolk and white…

When I do chicken breasts on the grill I take them to 150, measured with my Thermapen. Of course because they are varying thickness some parts are hotter than this. But if you take it any higher it becomes dry and tough. Additionally though if you cook it lower than this - say 145 - the texture is quite…

The problem was the “little water” - it needed to be covered by at least an inch of hot water and cooked on low for 2 hours or so and then switch to “keep warm” for another 3-4 hours. Basically trying to keep it below boiling, but the meat does need to be fully immersed.

Uhh... There are whole practices of midwives that deliver exclusively at hospitals.

Although, then I read about how Robert DeNiro is blathering on about vaccine safety along with Robert F. Kennedy Jr. and I wonder if maybe Celebrities should in fact keep their mouths shut...

This is the natural reaction to when a celebrity opens their mouth to voice an opinion though - “hur dur a celebrity dares to speak! Why don’t they just keep their mouths shut, why do they think we care what they have to say! Stick to acting! blah blah blah blah” - basically if you are outside what someone else…

Oh I’m no purist - I don’t really care one way or the other, and would be perfectly happy to own either - just that the 996 always seems to be the red-headed stepchild of Porsche-dom due to those headlights, regardless of which version.

Pretty sure the headlights in that picture are still exactly what everyone bitches about when it comes to 996 headlights - same on the 911, the boxster, etc. Sure they changed in 2002 from one ugly design to another - it doesn’t really make these better.

Nah, you definitely are not an ass for correcting me - I was an ass because I was correcting someone else and they were right! Well at least one of them was. Here I was basing my answers off of the 1985 Trivial Pursuit Genus edition and they went and changed stuff! How am I supposed to keep track of recent changes…

Yep, I’m a dumbass that didn’t fact check before posting (hangs head in shame).

Yep, I’m a dumbass - I didn’t check it again before I posted.

Treasury department - not FBI.

No to you and to C83nonstop - The Secret Service is an arm of the Treasury department. Their other big gig other than protection of the President is investigating and finding counterfeiters of US currency.

A friend of mine had a 1988 one of these - it was one of the most unreliable pieces of shit I’ve ever had the displeasure of being stranded by. The fact that they are restoring these to factory spec and not actually upgrading them so that they aren’t abysmal is truly sad. And then they cost more than a fully loaded…
