I was informed by ChatGPT that the sous vide time would have been 35+ hours if I'd have done 130 rather than 134. It's too medium for me as well, but a good steak just the same. If I have a couple days maybe I'll give a 127 a try.

@Mik said in Rob Reiner dead???: Trump's comments are vile. I'd like to see how MAGA defends this. By posting fake tweets supposedly from Reiner. https://x.com/lauraloomer/status/2000671838632894808?s=46

@Mik Well if that’s the case…. Link to video

It's not legal and it won't happen. And most of Trump's pure idiocy will go away with him. I am not concerned by post-trump "Maga", whatever that will mean. I'm just not seeing the crazy in people like Vance or Rubio.

At least my mortgage, which I thought was super high at the time, is still lower than I could refinance for today.

Finally got the car back this morning, the warranty provider approved the repair at the dealership. That’s impressive, as the repair will cost 40% of the purchase price of the vehicle. I honestly wouldn’t have expected they would do so. So I took it to the dealership, and they are telling me it can take up to two weeks…Ugh, And that’s taking it past the guaranteed return date. So there’s a very real chance that I might be exchanging/returning the car.

@LuFins-Dad said in Made in America Gift Guide: Nothing says “I don’t love you as much as I pretend to” like buying shitty American made crap. Imagine getting a Trump fungible for Christmas. Looking on the bright side, no jury would convict.
