    Diesel in a gas engine isn't so bad, it just gums things up. Gas in the diesel is what ruins the engine. The will probably just have to drain the tank and clean the injectors, shouldn't be horribly expensive. That said, he must have been pretty determined to get that diesel in there because the...

    Why would you want to get out an instant pot to cook one chicken breast? Put some oil in a frying pan, get the pan hot, and just saute it. It will take less than 12 minutes and taste way better than it would from an instant pot. Also, the "cooking times" that instant pot people list are kind...

    Getting rained on once isn't going to hurt your OSB. It's not good for it to be out in the weather long term, but one rain isn't going to hurt it. If it was MDF I might be worried but OSB will be fine. My neighbor has had exposed OSB on the end of his shed for like 10 years and it looks...

    I actually bought one of those too. No idea if they're any good, but for $30 for a 6 quart I figured it was worth a shot.

    I think you have to have them as a child. I don't think rocky mountain oysters are that good, but I eat them every year just out of nostalgia.

    I ordered the 32" Toshiba TV with the built in Fire Stick for $99 to replace my bedroom TV that was taken out by a lightning storm last week.

    My girlfriend has a dog that's deaf. I babysat him last week and it was really nerve wracking knowing I couldn't call him. I live in the country and don't have a fenced yard and he would go outdoors and just wander off and I would be like "Well, I hope he comes back".

    Whiskey

    One time I took a swig off of a bottle of fireball that someone was passing around and thought it was great. Then I went to the liquor store and bought a pint of it and thought it was horrendous. I don't know what I tasted the first time but that stuff is not good.

    Blown in insulation is easy and won't take more than a couple of hours. If you want to do any kind of wiring in the attic though, do it first.

    You should try living 50 miles from town. We have to practically beg people to even look at a job and then half the time they just give us a ridiculously high bid because they don't want the job unless you are desperate enough to seriously overpay for it. A local plumber bid us $15k to rough...

    IMO if your breasts are dry you're cooking them too long or at too low a temperature. That said though, thighs taste better.

    When I've done pot roast in the instant pot it turned out terrible. Some things need to be low and slow. I have had pretty good beans from the pressure cooker though.

    I think what they're talking about is that the instant pot has a "slow cooker" button so even if you want your pot roast slow cooked (and in my experience you do) you can still do it in the instant pot. I still use my crock pot to take to potlucks though. It's nice to be able to look through...

    Yeah, although it sounds like you are supposed to order multiple courses at $20 a piece if they are only 5 bites each. $20 isn't a lot for a steak but maybe it's a lot for 2 ounces of steak when you can get a 20 oz ribeye at most restaurants for under $35.

    Nope. Even the S10 has it. They did make it so you could like double tap it to use a different ap or something but fuck that. Mine is supposedly "turned off" but there is always still a pop-up when you hit it accidentally.

    Google got me with their latest email deal. Sent me a code for $300 off of a Pixel 3. $72 trade-in for my busted ass Galaxy S8 gets it down to $427 total. Still seems like quite a bit to pay for a phone but I'm really looking forward to no more of Bixby begging me to use it when I hit the...

    I don't think I could eat half that sandwich but even if I could, I wouldn't do it in my friend's house with people watching. He can't have been that hungry. Dude has emotional problems. His friends sound like dicks too, but that guy needs to seek help.

    This house was built in 1979 so I'm hoping stuff is a little more square. It was built by professionals at least. The house I'm in now was built by a farmer in 1943 and it shows. There wasn't electricity here until the late 50's so the wiring is an added-on shit show with almost every outlet...

    Okay bros, Our renters just moved out of one of the ranch houses and I'm planning to move into it. Before I do though, I want to do some work on it. The #1 issue is the flooring upstairs is all shot. The house is 40 years old and the flooring is all original. The house sat empty for a few...

    Yeah, but they clearly insinuated that they ran into the chain because the pilot was being barbecued by radiation, not that it was just a routine crash due to pilot error.

    My Mom's refrigerator has ice/water in the door with a bottom freezer and I wouldn't want it personally. The ice gets melty from people opening the door and then either gets all hairy or turns into one huge chunk. My fridge has the ice down in the freezer drawer and the ice is much nicer.

    People love to talk about the technology behind bitcoin as if that's relevant to its value somehow. You're not buying the tech, you're buying a currency that no one uses and only has value because other people are willing to buy it in hopes that it might become useful at some point. Until that...

    I'm at $33k since 1/1/2010. For some reason I can't get the report to go back to 2006. Fails every time I try. The pace is accelerating in recent years though. I spent $4685 in 2018 and I'm at $2867 YTD this year.

    That's what people do though. It's an emotional response. They see it skyrocketing and think "I have to get in on this" even though they have already missed it and then when it crashes they're like "Fuck this, I'm out." Exact opposite of what you're supposed to do but people do it all the...
