    Gravy's Cooking Thread

    Man, the reasoning behind it is almost worse than the fact that they weren't there. I actually announced at dinner this year that I would be okay with it if I came to Thanksgiving and all they had was stuffing, mashed potatoes, and gravy. Also I've had reheated mashed potatoes twice since...

    Turkey tops out at mediocre. Smoked and fried are the best ways to make it but it still is just okay. If you dry it out then it's borderline inedible. Cover it in gravy and cranberries and choke it down.

    Every meat is better than turkey. We just have to do this once a year to keep the turkey farmers in business.

    I never wet brine anymore. Just salt it liberally 24 hours before you want to start cooking and leave it uncovered in the refrigerator to dry out the skin. Then if you're roasting or smoking put a bunch of butter on and under the skin. If you're frying it the butter is not needed. This is...

    That's a simple algebra problem but it seems pretty hard for 4th grade. I thought they were barely getting into long division at that age?

    Juliette Lewis and Christina Ricci are both actresses that aren't especially good looking but there's something very sexy about them. They both have starred in movies where they played half retarded rednecks whom you still want to bone for some reason. (Lewis in Kalifornia and Ricci in Black...

    The Boring company was never going to build a Hyperloop. Elon wrote about the possibility of it and suggested that someone should build one but never said that he was going to. The Boring company was always just a tunnel company.

    The sequence where Bosa drew a holding penalty and then on the next play made a sack with the dude's arm around his neck was also pretty good.

    I really hope he doesn't let the republicans turn him into some kind of poster boy. The kid was obviously traumatized by all of this. It would be nice if the political ghouls from both sides would just leave him alone to deal with it but obviously that's not going to happen.

    Okay, "never happened" is an exaggeration. It's not going to happen to you unless you're a drug dealer or you live in the ghetto. I'm 100% for totally unabridged gun rights BTW, and if you want to keep a loaded gun in your bedroom that's between you and your family. I just think most people...

    The John Wick fantasy is thinking that 4 armed men are going to come into your house at night and you're going to have a gunfight with them. Unless you're a drug dealer or something, that shit has never happened.

    This was as obvious a case of self defense as you can get. Prosecutors were stupid to even take it to trial and whatever blow back occurs should be placed at the feet of the media exclusively. I hope the kid and the jurors don't have to go into hiding over this. If I was Kyle I would...

    That thing looks like a knock-off of the June oven which is the original outrageously priced toaster oven at $999. https://juneoven.com/pages/smart-oven

    I have that thing. It's great. I hardly ever use my big oven anymore. I didn't bother to buy a microwave either when I moved (old place had a built in microwave) and after a year and a half I have only missed it a few times. Use the toaster oven almost daily.

    What vehicle do you drive?

    The price on it is pretty amazing. As a commuter car with some extra utility it seems like a pretty great option. I don't know why nobody makes little pickups anymore. They used to be really popular.

    I was an electrical engineer, not mechanical, but shocks are different than sustained accelerations but both have issues. You have to think about resonant frequencies, PCBs paint canning etc. Also, your phone might survive a drop from 4 feet onto tile or it might not. Most of us wouldn't...

    You can survive a 4 foot fall onto tile. Could you survive a ride on that thing? All I'm saying is it's a lot more complicated than you're making it out to be and whatever payloads they are going to send on that thing surviving the initial acceleration is going to have to be a major design...

    I'm not saying it's impossible, I was just correcting you for saying that those sort of g's would be no problem for "properly mounted" electronics or that your cell phone would be fine being fired from a gun.

    You probably didn't know this, but before I came back to the ranch I spent 10 years designing telemetry systems for bombs and missiles. I never personally did one for an artillery shell but I know people who did and dealing with the acceleration was a nightmare and dictated the entire design...

    My stove has an "air fry" mode on it. I haven't used it though. I don't know what the difference is between air fry and just regular convection or if there is one.

    There are electronics in artillery shells but I wouldn't say it's not a problem for them. The G forces are probably the primary design consideration and there are a LOT of downsides to it.
