I dunno. My gf and I tried a bowl with it and it was fine to us. Not as good as a bowl with the regular cilantro lime rice (someone else had a negative comment about this rice, which is blasphemy, because aside from the guac, the rice is the best thing they have at Chipotle) but we were both still happy with it. But…

Definitely the air fryer. My IP is verstaile enough to warranty permanent counter space. Plus, my immersion circulator is made by Instant Pot and clips nicely onto my IP, so it’s basically got even more functionality. My air fryer is nice, but it’s big and bulky and it’s not worth pulling out for a lot of things.

I’ll subscribe to most everything that was said in this review, except to say that Rogue One flies circles around Solo. In fact, to me, Rogue One may be the only piece of Star Wars media since the OT to actually “get” what Star Wars “is” in such a complete fashion. Solo was a mess of a movie that clearly had too many…

my car has its own buttons for ac, as well as for the front defogger. turn on both, make sure the recirculated air button isn’t engaged, and you have this exact setup. i do this all the time on winter days, it cuts down the defog time substantially for me.

I recently bought the Beats Solo Pro on sale at Best Buy. Also offers the H1 chip and decent enough ANC to suit my needs, for wayyyyy less money. The H1 chip keeps me in the Apple fold, even though when I answer my iPhone, it doesn’t always seamlessly switch me over to the headphones (why, Apple?!?). I thought about…

All I can think of is the 1985 Reliant that my best friend in high school had. His older brother had bought it for $500 and given it to to my friend when he (the brother) left for college. It was a gray sedan that they had nicknamed the “Gray Squirrel”. The two things I remember about this car, other than all the…

For better or worse, he will ALWAYS be Buggin’ Out to me.

It would make sense that the Mandalorians would have a material that is heavily resistant to lightsaber blades, as the Jedi are their biggest enemies and that is their weapon of choice. Being able to completely just block lightsaber blades is stupid. I do agree that it would be better if the beskar just deflected some…

Heaven forbid the fanboys let someone be powerful without being somehow tied to another character they care about, either a famous one, or even a small one. They just won’t allow it.

Give Dave Filoni a chance, and he’s gonna. Favreau and Kathleen Kennedy gave him a chance. This outcome should surprise no one. If they don’t become too central to the story here and last as fun cameos that help advance the overall plot, then I’m OK with it. If this turns into a vehicle for Filoni to continue telling…

My biggest wink and nod that I appreciated was the reference to HK droids. HK-47 is a main character in the two Knights of the Old Republic games (some of the best Star Wars games ever made, don’t ya know), so I definitely appreciate the nice clear throwback to that.

I like it because it tries to stay too far out of the fanboy weeds. I’m a little worried that Filoni is leaning a little too much into his “Clone Wars” and “Rebels” universes to feed his own vision of the Star Wars world, but I do at least feel like Favreau is keeping the ship steady metaphorically speaking for those…

Meanwhile, I’ll just hope that they continue to tell good stories and not let fanboyism destroy this show the way they let ROTJ get slaughtered because the fanboys couldn’t stand the idea that maybe they could try something a little bit different for once in TLJ. I’m not hopeful.

Apple’s view is that the iPad is the competitor to a device like the Surface Pro so I doubt that very much.

Sadly, they’re not on the new Chromecast with Google TV, which I just bought to replace my Roku, as I finally got fed up enough with the inability to get HBO Max on my Roku because they and AT&T are still having a pissing match about fees and, let’s face it, the new CCGTV is pretty great for $50. This whole game of…

The fun part about being from NJ is that you can pretty much throw a dart at a map and land on a good hot dog joint. I’ll allow Tommy’s. It’s an institution and Italian Hot Dogs are a whole different experience. I’m just glad they didn’t go with Hot Dog Johnny’s, which is a tourist trap that survives on little more…

Luckily for me, my local Wegmans sells a decent aji amarillo paste that isn’t as good as the real thing, but does the job for a quick lomo saltado or similar. I will have to try this green sauce recipe sometime.

I’m guessing this is why we haven’t heard anything about Big Sur at the iPhone event, even as part of the typical “here’s a quick update about other things happening” that usually start off these events. Going to bet that they’re going to tie the Big Sur release to these new Apple Silicon based Mac models, since…

Given all the latest nonsense that’s been happening with Roku not playing nicely with HBO Max, among other services, in an attempt to basically extort content providers in its best CableCo impression, I might have to seriously look into this. I never liked the original ChromeCast’s reliance on having your phone handy…

I’ve sometimes found that the 4K HDR experience on Netflix with my TV makes things harder to see, not easier. I don’t have the time or patience to sit there and completely redo calibration, and I’m not hiring someone to do it for my TV, as I didn’t spend 5 grand on a super high end model.
