    I really like silicon sheets for baking cookies, we just have some silicon rolls that you put on top of a normal cookie sheet. They look like a giant placemat made of plastic. The cookies always bake perfectly, the bottom never, ever gets any browner than the top. The cookies always stay chewy.

    Laptop Computers

    That's kind of a tough question. They kind of have already, the next round of GPUs from Nvidia will be based on their "Maxwell" architecture, and we've already had the first card released, the 750/750ti, a low/mid-range card, still numbered in the 700s like the previous generation. No one...

    That tablet is pretty...meh. It'll be slow. Its likely fine for web browsing and book reading, but don't plan on downloading too many high-end games, that thing will be pretty slow trying to do anything graphic-intensive. I've never heard of that site, but the fact that there is no mention of...

    Yeah, Brahma has more money invested into headphones than most people have invested in their car.

    Chromecast - the new Google TV

    Yup, gave my mom my old Samsung 42" LED when I upgraded, took it to her house, set it up, went to the cable store and got her an HD box, set that up, and she still watches her standard def channels. Reason being that on her cable service where NBC is 4 and CBS is 5, etc, the HD channels are...

    New toilet installed. Only a small amount of blood was shed in the process. Soon I will be posting here from my new throne. Only bad part was removing the old toilet, all the bolts were rusted to shit so I just took a hammer to the toilet base and broke the porcelain to get it loose. I also...

    Motherfuck. We went out last night with some friends for dinner and drinks, get home at about 11pm(we were gone maybe 4 hours) and when I pull the car in the garage, theres water running onto the windshield. Running, not dripping. I back the car back out, and the entire garage floor is wet...

    Car Insurance

    Don't have to have any if your credit is terrible. At my company, your credit score gives you anywhere from a 30% discount to a 200% surcharge. That typical, $50 a month auto insurance could go down to $35 if you have great credit, or up to $150 if you have bad credit. And unfortunately, most...

    Intel i5 4670k processor and an Nvidia 780/780ti will run everything on ultra at 1080p for the next year or two. The processor will probably be fine for 5+ years, the video card will have to be replaced in 2-ish, to stay up with modern games on ultra settings. And AMD 290x video card is also a...

    Don't be surprised if and when those checks arrive that they have your mortgage company on them, you may have to send them off to be co-signed before you can deposit them if your mortgage company doesn't have any local offices/banks. And they may require proof that the repairs are done or at...

    My main issue with Sous-Vide is the time commitment. It's also why I don't have a smoker, even though I love BBQ. I don't want to have to plan my meal out 12+ hours ahead of time, and monitor the cooking process during that time frame for proper temperatures. Crock pot cooking is alright...

    NFL 2014 Off-Season Thread

    He fits right in here in KC. I mean, if you are going to be fat and like food that is horrible for you, there aren't many NFL cities better suited for that than KC. His previous home of Philly might be the only one that tops us.

    Speaking of pics, anyone ever have any luck talking your wife into letting you take some quality pics of her in the bedroom? I joke about it with my wife and she laughs, but the couple of times I've seriously asked she's shot the idea down immediately. Even when we were dating, she was never...

    It seems to me that part of this GC vs plumber/electrician disconnect is the scope of the comparable jobs. It's hard to compare the profit margin on a multi-day, multi-thousand dollar job vs the profit margin on a 90-minute quick fix at someones home. Yeah, your labor $ per hour over the...

    Watch Dogs

    I have Watch Dogs loaded into my 16GB RAMDrive(I have 32GB of 1866 DDR3), and I still get texture pop-in with SLi'd 3GB 660Tis. Has to be an optimization/driver issue. My RAMDisk transfers data about 20X faster than my Samsung Evo SSD.

    Sweet potato cakes are awesome. Make mashed sweet potatoes, form into patties(easiest if you refrigerate overnight), fry in skillet. Potato cakes with left over mashed potatoes are awesome for breakfast, but sweet potato cakes are even better.

    I've never heard of an insurance company doing that with a deductible(and I work for one). It's always the deductible off the top of whatever they are ultimately paying, not what the damages are(if they are more). You might want to ask them for a clarification on that, because it would be...

    That sounds very much like a 2-part payment. Coverage cap is $10K, you have a $1000 deductible, so the most you can get is $9000. You basically just got half up front, I'd be inquiring into the certainty of the 2nd half at this point.

    Are you positive that you aren't in a cash value/replacement cost situation with the repair where they give you a partial payment up front, and then the rest of the damage payment after the work has actually been completed? That's pretty common on a lot of homeowners claims, on both personal...

    Well, between my highschool sweetheart dying of ovarian cancer at the age of 22 before we were able to get done with college and get married, which took me several years to get over and start dating again, and then this being the next long relationship I had after that, I didn't even think about...

    that's why I keep showing up to their family events. Watching the balut massacre is worth it, because her mom makes the goddamn best homemade eggrolls and steamed dumplings on Earth. Along with her homemade sweet chili sauce for dipping. So, so good.
