Cooking

the availability of the internet and a young(er) brain has made learning to cook easier for me. Also I feel like diverse ingredients are easier to come by. They were cooking out of Betty Crocker and their parent’s index card collection.

Single ultrawide for everything. The ergonomics are superior.

I successfully made a checklist of work tasks, and checked several of them off

Oh dear, I didn’t know there was tomato for vacuums… depending on how it goes, this knowledge will make you either my new friend or my latest enemy…

Another that you didn’t mention: The wall meets the ceiling in different places on either side of her head

I was hoping for a “war never changes” moment, but it’s a slow thing, and this was short. In my mind they were right to leave it out. I’ll be surprised if it’s not included in the actual series somewhere.

I don’t have any reason to not trust OP, but the likelihood of this conversation happening at ALL seems incredibly unlikely. Never mind that it is described as successful.

If true, this is amazing.

I’m surprised that was enough - don’t underestimate a kids ability to make their own pixie dust out of whatever they have around. Now there’s plant soil and sugar on the floor too.

Apologies up front for being Nit picky … but you have your comparison backwards.

it doesn’t hold a candle to Colombia

Based on the rest of your statement, I believe you mean that Columbia doesn’t hold a candle to Rapture.

The idiom means “worse thing” isn’t as good as “better thing”.

You snapped the stirring paddle??

While that surprises me, I can’t speak to the durability of that part; I threw it away and use a regular spoon.

I’ve had 2 of these for about a decade now, using daily, and they are still working great.

“A bun”

I’m curious why you’d put so much effort into the rest of the ingredients, and not do something special with the bun. The bun looks grilled at least! Looks delicious!

I’m no one important, but I’m impressed!

Do you think it’s fair to say that one size does not fit all, so a giant list of self hosted options for people to choose from, is itself awesome?

The benefit of self hosting boils down to being able to make your own choices. Having a full list of options to choose from and make your own decision fits this community better (for better or worse) than someone else curating that thing for you.

Is the internet still kept in Big Ben?
