    Gravy's Cooking Thread

    I mean, USDA guidelines warn about eating fried eggs too. Pork loin isnt to be cooked well done. When we cooked pork loin in the restaurant it was a heavy sear then a fairly short roasting time, served at medium unless ordered otherwise. To be honest its something I've almost never cooked at...

    Gravy's Cooking Thread

    I havent noticed this stated yet in this discussion of pork loin, but almost all pork loin I've ever been served that was cooked by someone else shared the same flaw: it was cooked well done. Pork loin is a cut you don't cook well done, its gonna be dry as shit if you do.

    They've got red hair, is that part even a question? Of course they're gonna be black The ONLY problem is that of course they have to black Hermione too, which would mean a non-interracial hetero couple and that kind of racist backwards shit is obviously not permitted. So most like Ron Weasley...

    Eh, thats fair. I agree with all three points. I'm just saying, I think its success depended on the novely of its gimmick.

    The Netflix Thread

    squid game was neat, and I might watcha second season if they made one, but it is a gimmick show that relied 100% on its gimmick for its success. I doubt lightening can strike twice with that one. Calling it one of the greatest shows is ridiculous. Neat gimmick based show is the best I can do.

    Havent seen Chupa linked here yet. Netflix kids movie. Set in Mexico. Kids find a baby chupacabra, have adventures. Features a mexican kid raised in the US who reconnects with his Mexican heritage while visiting his family. Nothing groundbreaking about the story. But holy shit if this isnt...

    Well, if they were gonna fire anybody, the whole multiverse thing in principle would give them a good out. Shame they already showed that all versions of Kang look like Majors, or they could just handwave away his replacement in universe as some multiverse thing.

    Youve got to hand it to them. Even though the viewer knew all along that was gonna be part of the story, they somehow manage to make it even more disturbing the way they handle it.

    Well, I suppose if the question had been "can people find things to put on multiple monitors at once?" your post would have sure showed me all of that. and you're only ever looking at one of them at a time, or interacting with one of them at a time. One. ever. Its alright man, we all own shit...

    Two monitors is a frivolous luxury. It has literally no actual benefit for a person competent to operate a computer (alt-tab makes this pointless). But at least a person could argue, (and they do, retardedly), that it "makes things easier" because they can read things off one screen then type...

    A question because I want to understand how bankrupt stocks work. Not because I want to buy AVYA. (I don't do half measures -- when I want to light money on fire I just invest in natgas) AVYA is up 1350% again today. Fidelity hasnt allowed trades in AVYA since they declared bankruptcy the most...

    This was awsome, I had no idea there were names for those people. I just called everyone who didnt do Whitesmith style "fucking mongoloids". Now I know there are specific names for each group.

    Moral compass, hell -- I'd settle for Asimovs Three Laws as a starting point. I wonder if in Asimovs fictional universe the guy who originally proposed the Three Laws was mercilessly mocked for the rest of his life as a nut case and conspiracy theorist.

    Amen on the table part. I'm setting up a taller table next time. We cut off the head then immediately hold the flapping carcass by the legs in a 5 gallon bucket. It does its nonsense for a minute, then I hang it to drain the rest of the way. No real problems this way, as long as I don't fumble...

    Process yourself. If you pay to have chickens processed you pay more than it would cost to just go buy a chicken from the grocery store by the time its all done. Plucking is much, much less work than advertised IMO. The hardest part is removing the intestines without breaking them. I highly...

    I like your analogy, but feel it needs a tweak. We're driving into a blind corner at full speed while the driver is telling us that his one and only rule on this drive is that nobody's allowed to say hurty words in the car. This is reminding me a lot of the early debates over destroying human...

    "expanded demographics"? What, you're saying the tranny video game and sci-fi TV fan demographics are bigger than the normal people demographic? You can't really believe that.

    UNO rules question

    If they say it after your hand is off the penultimate card and before you say Uno, they are correct j00t is wrong because he's trying to call last card while still holding his penultimate card. Holding two cards, he would call out "last card". No, you have two cards. everyone complaining...

    UNO rules question

    That rules wording isnt ambiguous at all. Not even a little. "One card left". You can't call UNO while youre holding one card in your left hand and one in your right; you still have two cards left at that point. When your hand leaves the penultimate card you may call UNO and no earlier.
