They make smaller dishwashers for 1 bedroom apartments. They’re very narrow so you can fill them up quickly.

I’m a retro gamer. Old games are not dead games unless it’s no longer possible to play them.

Look at Nintendo. They’re still selling the VS arcade version of SMB1 from 1986!

It doesn’t really screw them over much. They made lots of money before they started doing this BS. They’ll make lots of money after they start complying with it. It’s just them being dumb.

An older game may not sell as well as a new one but a dead game doesn’t sell anything.

Potentially suffering from extreme heat too. Not a whole lot to be done about that if you’re growing outdoors. Lettuce does not like heat.

Yes, though then we’ll have to test your blood to make sure.

Dunno how you get that. MSG has nothing to do with opium.

Hey it could be nichrome wire for all we know!

Yes, it’s just hard to do, especially for people without a car. Hauling a large number of heavy glass bottles to the grocery store on public transit is quite a burden!

Glass bottles aren’t a free win. Glass is very heavy to transport and extremely energy-intensive to manufacture. It made sense back when people hardly drank any soda. It still makes sense for things like condiments (soy sauce, vinegar, etc) and alcoholic drinks but it doesn’t make any sense for everyday drinks like water or soda.

We should be investing in better municipal water treatment facilities so that tap water doesn’t taste awful. Where I live the tap water is horrible but I’ve visited places where the tap water tastes perfectly clean and pleasant. If we had universally tasty tap water then people would stop buying plastic water bottles.

As for soda, I could see glass bottles being excellent if we could bring consumption down to a reasonable level. Many people guzzle soda as if it were water which is both terrible for their health and the environment.

On the one hand I agree with them because having a Q&A site full of repetitive beginner questions will ruin its usefulness as a resource. On the other hand they handle it in the worst possible way. Instead of leaving around a bunch of “corpses” of closed questions they should just merge the beginner’s question into the original, already answered question. Just n Move it to the bottom of that question’s discussion thread and redirect the beginner to the answer at the top.

The way they decided to do it essentially codifies all the things people hated about asking for help on IRC and later Discord.

I have used the water drop trick occasionally. Usually I cook an egg at higher temperature though. I wait until the oil smokes and fry it to get a golden brown crispy bottom. My favourite egg to throw on a noodle or rice bowl.

I have that same wok. You need a lot more oil for a flat bottom wok than a round bottom because the flat bottom doesn’t let the oil pool to the middle.

You absolutely can get nonstick eggs with a stainless steel frying pan and a small amount of oil but you need to actually practice heat control and cooking technique. It’s actually much easier with butter because the water in it will begin to fizz and you just need to wait for the fizzing to stop and the pan will be just about hot enough.

You still need to use the right heat setting which is specific to your stove and pan, so practice is needed but you can get a good feel for it by how quickly the butter melts. If it melts rapidly and gives off a lot of steam and begins browning then the pan is too hot (unless you want to do a crispy egg, but that should be done with oil instead of butter which has milk solids that burn and turn bitter).

Fun fact: you don’t need a uterus to get pregnant. An embryo can implant outside the uterus anyway. This is known as ectopic pregnancy.

Nice! All my exams in university included an announcement that all water bottles must be clear and free of labels. No other food or drinks permitted.

Well the regions are much coarser than the radiation measurements. Plus the regions don’t show where the populations are concentrated. You can have a vast region with radiation varying all over the place but if the population is concentrated in the high radiation area then that’s all that matters.

Look closer. That island has more radiation than the mainland west of it. It has a whole strip of yellow on its western shore.

Hopefully your Valentine is this guy:

I take it you’re not a tennis fan. You absolutely can win not only a point but a game (4 points) just by standing there. It’s called a double fault and they happen all the time.

In 2014 Serena Williams lost a match after double faulting 4 times in a row to lose a game. She is not immune to double faults!

Personal pan pizzas are by far the best size! The small size means they get ultra crispy and don’t get soggy in the middle like larger pizzas do!

I think in practice almost no one uses the second definition. If your office has a “biweekly meeting” then it’s definitely a meeting every 2 weeks, occurring on the same day (usually a Monday).

Two meetings in one week is just two different meetings, not a biweekly meeting.
