The gravy is the easy part. Making good biscuits is an art, although once you drown them in gravy the importance of biscuit quality is somewhat diminished.

I bought some of those adapters for my old micro USB chargers at first but they suck because those chargers don't put out as much current as a full powered type c charger so they don't charge as fast. Just bite the bullet and get new chargers IMO. Type C is definitely going to be the future...

It's a new era of positivity!

It seems to me that everyone should register over there but continue posting here until it starts to suck just so a_skeleton_03 or whoever is paying the bills doesn't rack up unnecessary bandwidth costs. Nothing wrong with MMORPG paying the bills for their site.

Wasn't Emucide a Public Enemy album from 1997?

I really like this car charger. I have 3 of them now. Fast charges my 6P and according to the amazon reviews it can deliver full power to a micro-USB device at the same time. $15.99 Amazon.com: USB Type C Car charger, Nekteck 5.4A USB-C Car Charger Adapter with Integrated Built-in Type-C...

That's cool. Certainly easier than dedicating half your shop to a table saw with enough room around it to rip sheets of plywood.

How does the guide rail work? You just clamp it onto your plywood somehow?

When farmers talk about Roundup they mean glyphosate. Yeah there are a bunch of gardening products that say Roundup on the label and have who knows what in them but that's not what anyone's talking about when they discuss the merits of Roundup.

You're going to put a cast iron skillet on your grill? Why not just sear them directly on the grill?

Oh and this one always gets me too.

Fucking sad song thread with almost no country music in it. This needs to be remedied. And some newer stuff....

The cordless ones are nice if you want to use it far from an outlet or are going to be crawling around in the rafters with it but if you're going to be in the shop using saw horses I'd go corded for more power.

Get some sawhorses and you can do it, even the major cuts. You can cut pretty straight with a circular saw with a little practice but if it really has to be straight you can use a saw guide as Borzak said. You can also buy a rip fence for that saw for like $16 if you aren't cutting things real...

I think your choice is between worm drive (hypoid) or sidewinder. The worm drive is tougher, sidewinder is lighter. This one seems like it's right on your price range at least, and as we said earlier, Makita is pretty bulletproof. Makita 5377MG Magnesium 7-1/4-Inch Hypoid Saw - Power...

Perhaps the idea behind 2,4-D ready plants is that if you could make plants that are immune to both chemicals and then spray crops with both at once and reduce the chances that weeds that are developing resistance to one or the other will survive to pass on their DNA.

This argument is just as dumb as the others. ROUNDUP IS MAKING TEH SUPARWEEDS!!!!" The only negative consequence of these so-called superweeds is that we would lose roundup as a herbicide. If you ban roundup because plants might become resistant to it, you're throwing the baby out with the...

If you're just going to put up a few pictures it doesn't matter, just get some POS from Harbor Freight for $20. If you think you might actually use it regularly in the future it seems like most construction guys are saying that Makita is the best right now but they are also the most expensive...

Honda small engines are totally bulletproof. I have 5 or 6 of them and they all start every time even though I'm not too careful on maintenance. That said, I have 3 or 4 Briggs and Strattons as well and they are also very reliable.

If you sprayed a field with roundup and some of the plants didn't die, you didn't use enough roundup. Obviously, so why do you keep posting "facts" about it?

My relationship with religion is a bit complicated, but i think it would be most accurate to call me an agnostic. I don't personally waste much of god's time. I tend to defend Christians in this thread because it gets to be a bit of an atheist echo chamber and I don't think they deserve as much...

The Real Reason Wheat is Toxic : snopes.com

Based on your post it's a small bit. Uh, I don't know who told you this but it's not just wrong it's complete nonsense. 2,4-D is older than roundup, and unlike roundup that kills anything it is sprayed on, 2,4-D is a broadleaf herbicide that doesn't effect grass or grains. Since it came out...

In my engineering days everything the mechanical guys did was in inches and decimals of that. My brother is an electrician and always complains about standard units but the real problem with it is 1) feet and inches and 2) fractions. If we just switched to using just feet or just inches and...

This never happened. They tested the guy's field and the crop was like 98% GMO. He was lying and the "it just blew in" was a half assed attempt to save himself but that doesn't keep hippies from bringing up the case as if it had some merit.

Nobody has a HP48G? I have a TI-81 too but once you use an RPN calculator you can't go back.

Is there no "bang for your buck" brand? I have been unhappy lately with Hanes just because they don't last but it seems like the choices go from 5 pairs of hanes for $15 directly to the $25-$35 a pair shit. I see that MeUndies start at $24 a pair but you can buy a 10 pack for $150. Maybe I...

I know that kind of thing can happen, but I'm not going to put any effort into worrying about it.

From what I've read the WSM is a great smoker but if you're going to use charcoal you are going to have to babysit it to keep the temp constant at least some. If you don't mind that it's probably a great option. If you want a more set it and forget it option you might think about a propane or...

I have also heard that one California dairy cow produces as much milk as 6 cows in Mexico or like 10 in India.

Yeah, fuck NiCad. A lithium one will be *much* better both with regard to power and to charge time/run time. Do you have any other cordless power tools? Makita at least makes some nice trimmers that work with their lithium batteries that go with their cordless drills and shit. I have the 18V...

This isn't a place to educate yourself but this short podcast addresses a lot of common concerns about GMOs from a scientific perspective. GMO Facts and Fiction

On short notice tonight I found out that I had 5 big rib eyes to cook at my Mom's house and she has the world's shittiest gas grill that varies from lukewarm to medium heat depending on what part you use. I have cooked steaks on it before and it was a total shit show so I didn't want to do...

I toured an organic vegetable farm a few months ago and it's a terrible way to farm. Those poor bastards had to work so fucking hard to fight weeds that I just felt sorry for them. My beef with organic is that it rules out common sense. There are situations where using less pesticide or doing...

That's part of the problem. All you have to do to send dumb people into a panic is say "They're putting the chemicals in our foods!!!!!" and who cares whether or not it's true. "They're being mean to the animals!" works just as well.

With regard to Monsanto "abusing" farmers, if you don't want to agree to their terms, all you have to do is not use their seed. It's not like non-patented seed isn't available and you can do whatever the hell you want with it. Farmers buy fancy seed because it makes them money and it's only...

Keep in mind that the alternative to betting the farm on Luck is to let him be a free agent. I don't think any GM would consider that a reasonable thing to do. I wonder what it would have been if he didn't have a bad season last year.

Well to date no court has ever wanted to look at my phone nor is there anything on my phone that I would want to hide from a court so I'm not too concerned about it. Before the fingerprint reader my phone wasn't locked at all.

They should really just show Dany and her army slowly sailing across the sea for the first six episodes. It will be super realistic.
