  • You can tell OP does not believe any person outside of America is human.

    You did a lot more than conclude they have either been tuned out or need to re-think some things, and you know it.

    Get out of here with that "If you're not vocally against every evil at all times... " bullshit. It's got the same energy as injecting "but what about men?" into every conversation about women's problems.

  • Did you make sure to don some black nitrile gloves and give it a good squeeze to get rid of all those pesky flavor juices?

    Kidding of course... Looks good! I've done 3 or 4 full packers and struggle to get both the point and flat to come out the way I want. Wrapping helps, but it's definitely not trivial!

    If I have parts that come out tough/dry, I like to vacuum seal and freeze them for next time I make chili.

    Fattier bits can be good chopped up and fried quickly in a cast iron skillet for tacos (fry just long enough to let some of the fat render and crisp up kinda like carnitas)

  • Not to single you out, but I have noticed a lot of people having a hard time picking up sarcasm lately, and obvious satire/sarcasm getting downvoted to oblivion.

    Like I get that hackles are raised as fuck right now, but I don't quite get the connection...?

  • They do sell stuff in larger packages than most stores, but very little of it is actually in such an absurd quantity that a household of 1 or 2 couldn't reasonably use it. Another thing I appreciate is that since they typically only carry 2 or 3 options for any given product, I feel reasonably confident that their buyers have vetted those products well, and the non-staple things we do buy generally seem to be pretty solid quality.

    It's also one of my first shopping stops for electronics and appliances, since they usually offer include and extra year or 3 of warranty coverage.

  • For me anyways, it's less "what was I doing?" and more "how do I not be an incompetent combat derp?"

    I recently fired up God of War after a few months on a different game and promptly got slaughtered for the next 90 minutes straight until I could re-learn all the combos, special abilities, and enemy attack patterns.

  • I was thinking the same thing, but here's my guess:

    -Cold, foggy night/morning = frost forming

    -Cloudy until early-morning so the sun doesn't warm the shingles

    -Clouds clear up a bit by mid-morning, and the sun rapidly warms up the shingles, leading to the frost evaporating quickly relative to the shadow's motion

  • Same here. I normally have qbittorrent running 24/7, but typically shut it down and grab a different VPN server once or twice a week. It seems to affect uploads more than downloads though.

    Stuck torrents aren't really a huge deal for me, because I've usually got at least a couple weeks worth of backlog. But it is frustrating when I pop open the client and see like 3Gb of upload activity that day, when I have hundreds of things seeding.

  • M:tG cards back in the late 90s.

    There was a local comic book store called (no shit) The Funk Pit, which kept the mid tier cards stored in 3 ring binders full of those plastic card sleeves, and common cards stored in an "Inch Box" where they just charged you by the height of your stack. My friend and I would occasionally sneak a more expensive card out of the binder and slip it into our stack from the Inch Deck that cost $1.25.

    There's no way we were the first or last to do it, but I felt kinda shitty about it for years after.

  • Do you think that someone sits down and makes a list of all items that need to be labeled as containing X, which is then updated each time a new food or recipe hits the store shelves?

    Or is it more likely that regulators simply state that all foods for human consumption containing more than some percent by weight of X must be labeled as containing X?

    If your goal is to ensure that consumers are alerted to certain ingredients for allergy or other purposes, you care very much about a product not getting labeled properly, and you don't really care if something obvious gets the label.

    I'm not really sure why this is so hard to grasp...

  • I hate to be "that guy" but in theee cases, it just makes more sense to have some extraneous labeling rather than have special clauses in the regulation dictating when it's obvious enough that the label can be omitted.

    Keeping the rules as simple as possible reduces the chances of loopholes and ambiguity, at the expense of sometimes resulting in things like a jar of peanut butter stating "contains peanuts" on the label.

  • Thanks for the rec. I've been using the BP60NB10 for about a year now since I didn't have a PC with 5.25" slots at the time, but seeing as how the WH16NS40 is currently 68 bucks on Amazon, it's tempting to grab a couple as backups.
