    Maybe, maybe not. Most agricultural crops (wheat, corn, soybeans, etc) are already mechanically harvested, but if the fruit is delicate (strawberries, lettuce, etc) or the plant needs to be left undamaged after harvesting (tree nuts, apples, etc), or both (cherries, raspberries, etc) then that...

    There was a big series in the SF Chronicle a few years back about a Korean girl and they made it sound like a good percentage of the girls working in Asian Massage parlors and various other fronts for prostitution aren't exactly there by choice. It's not slavery in the literal sense where...

    They aren't "faking" the burning faucets, they are just incorrectly attributing it to fracking instead of the fact that they have an improperly vented water well and they live in natural gas country. All About Fracking - Skeptoid

    If that's what your result is cooking a thick piece of meat on a grill then you are completely incompetent at grilling. People grill tri-tips all the time and they are much thicker than that steak.

    I think natural gas is a great option to bridge the gap to whatever will replace fossil fuels. We need to build more cars that run on it. Of course the hippies don't like it because it makes money for oil companies so they make shit up about the horrors of fracking. Personally I think what...

    The Animal Activism Crazy Thread

    Something to consider is that being shot by a hunter is literally the quickest and most painless way that a wild animal can die. It's way better than being torn apart alive by animal predators and/or starving to death in old age because they don't have enough teeth to eat anymore which are...

    Oh good, let's talk about fucking sous vide some more. That grilled steak is cooked way past medium rare so that picture is kind of bullshit BTW. I like my burgers at least medium well. I don't mind a bit of pink in the middle, but if they aren't pretty well cooked through they fall apart...

    You sound like someone who has no fucking clue what you're talking about here. I don't hunt, but you're doing some ass talking in this post. Hunting is not dangerous, but it is challenging, and the animals "win" (get away) all the time.

    Heating it up won't overcook it unless you take it past the medium rare temp. Put it in a low temp oven and watch the internal temp and it should be nearly as good as the first time. Steak salad is also good.

    Plus it would take like 3 bags of charcoal to get that thing going. Also each person in that pic is apparently having a porterhouse the size of their head and then following it up with a couple chicken breasts, 3 or 4 brats, and some veggie kabobs.

    I think for it to be a slur it has to be used as one. I just don't see any evidence of anyone using it as a slur. Certainly the team isn't. I would say that it's equally stupid to carry a flag for a cause where the bad guys aren't trying to be bad and the victims don't give a damn.

    It was right on the ground. He just lined up two rows of like 10 or 15 bricks probably 10 inches apart, poured some sand between them, and then put the hot charcoal on the sand so it's a long narrow pit that is just wide enough for the skewers to lay across.

    I think you're reading too much into what I said. I don't give a shit if they change the name. I just suspect that it has more to do with busybody liberals throwing their weight around than any real racism or offense being given. And of course the Oklahoma thing was obviously a joke.
