Uber’s support is an actual nightmare to deal with. I had an issue where they charged me significantly more for an order than the website said. Their support just wouldn’t do anything except go through their script and tell me I’m shit out of luck. They only had someone do something when I complained at them on Twitter.

I’d probably just say something non-pressuring but supportive like “I know with everything that is going on recently that things may be challenging for you right now. If you need anything please don’t hesitate to reach out to me and I’ll support you in any way I can.”

Yeah this is pretty much what I’m doing. My subscriptions are pretty much spaces about my interests that post positive content, and even then I filter out keywords for the bullshit that leaks in. Trying to spend more time reading books and unplugging from the internet. It still feels so hard to avoid the depressing bullshit though.

Hard to make a good recommendation right now. Prusa really didn’t impress with the core one because they are still using their old bed size (z height isn’t important at all for me) and the MMU just isn’t as good as the AMS. Creality still has OQC issues that enough people encounter even on their high end printers.

There aren’t really even sls printers in that price point yet despite there being somewhat cheaper ($20kish) options for awhile. I wouldn’t expect anything for at least 5-10 years.

You don’t become a billionaire by pure luck though, you need to seek out situations that could make you rich and then you need to get incredibly lucky (unless you are born into money of course).

Being the type of person that seeks out becoming that rich is going to have to do it at the expense of others.

Ideally we can use this strategy to our benefit, tell the North American automakers that there needs to be x readily available models of electric cars with minimum specs at a certain price by a specific date or they will open up the market to China who will eat their lunch.

If treating people with respect and standing up for the greater good of an inclusive society that doesn’t villainize people who aren’t harming others is virtue signalling then I wear the title proudly.

The weight of the meat is fairly inconsequential since it is just a bit denser than the water. Floating is purely due to trapped air in the sous bide bag so you just need enough weight to overcome the buoyancy force of the air.

That isn’t a paperweight, that is a board in need of minor repair. If you don’t have the skills to do it yourself then find an electronic repair shop, they should be able to fix it for you pretty easily. Soldering on a new connector is like the most basic repair to do.

Its amazing how quickly these assholes have dropped any sort of facade they were keeping up towards their public image. At best they are doing whatever they think will get them the most money, more realistically they actually support this regressive bullshit. As a non-American I am so pissed at what a good portion of that country has voted for and those that stayed home instead of preventing this.

Christy Clark is the worst possible replacement for Trudeau, she totally fucked over BC and isn’t even a Liberal. The BC Liberals were a conservative party.

Yeah her videos set off major alarm bells in my mind just because of the association of the type of content with this format being used to manipulate people. Even though when I’ve watched them it has been pretty sensible.

My lentils are super basic but still great. Just toss lentils, water, curry powder, salt, and cayenne into a pot and cook until the desired texture. Add some garam masala at the end and stir in. I’ve even got a local company that makes curry powders and such and they don’t include any garlic or onion in the spice mixes.

I didn’t even adapt the recipe, the friend I got it from makes it exactly like that.

Yeah, Indian food is unfortunately mostly a no go for me due to the onions and there is no real alternative. I make something along the lines of butter chicken at home with tomatoes, spices and whipping cream without onions that scratches the itch, but it isn’t the same.

As a flavouring there are a number of things you can use. Flavoured oils are the easiest to use/find but don’t give a ton of flavour. I also find a lot of them taste pretty bad, Colavita garlic olive oil is the only one I buy. FreeFod makes FODMAP free onion and garlic powders that work a treat. Otherwise I mostly use a lot of green onion tops when I want onion flavour.

I normally don’t have too many issues with the texture side, what kind of dishes does removing the onion cause problems? If you are blending the sauce and the onion is adding body, maybe look at different thickening options like xanthan gum.

Lastly, Fodzyme makes a enzyme powder that works against various FODMAPs including Garlic and Onion. Its expensive, but worth it for eating out or the dish doesn’t work without the onion/garlic base.

The recommendation is to only make as much onion or garlic oil as you can use at the time as they are a risk of botulism. The commercial products have additional processing (usually acidification) to make them shelf stable.

I don’t know what it is but I’ll read my posts before posting and then come back later and it will have an obvious autocorrect error I missed.

It pisses me right off how bad predictions have gotten on every keyboard. SwiftKey and Swype were damn near perfect at one point and now I swear it purposely chooses the wrong word.

As someone that uses the exact same comparison. I do try to make it clear that they are both valid hobbies but you need to be honest which your hobby is when picking a printer. For a lot of the Ender and similar printer owners they really do have a 3D Printer hobby specifically.

I don’t really have a good suggestion for a general recipe search engine, but for the recipe storage I moved away from Yummly ages ago because they didn’t import everything within the app (which most commercial apps don’t due to copyright issues). I moved to Paprika which I used successfully up until recently where I moved to a self-hosted solution called Tandoor. Both work great as recipe storage solution.
