America’s Test Kitchen is one of the only apps I pay a subscription for. It’s pretty phenomenal. I usually try to find something from Kenji Lopez-Alt, Binging with Babish, or Claire Saffitz first but I ALWAYS know I will find something good on ATK.

YouTube recipes have gotten hit or miss for me and I blame TikTok. They have become super short without lots of relevant information. If you’re lucky they will display the ingredient quantity on screen for a second before moving on.

I recently was looking for a new recipe to try and found so many YouTube “recipes” that read like a Great British Bake Off Challenge.

Step 1: Gather ingredients Step 2: Make dough Step 3: Cook. Enjoy! Like and subscribe, check out my Patreon, TikTok, Instagram, tumbler, Etsy, Nebula, floatplane, and OnlyPans!

Oh man Muse and Walk the Moon are some of my regulars. Haven’t heard of St. Lucia or Passion Pit, I’ll have to give those a listen.

Man, that kind of switch really rubs me the wrong way.

Out of curiosity what bands did it use for your example?

Also do yourself a favor and listen to Sleep Token and Jacob Collier.

Specifically:

For Sleep Token: https://youtu.be/uU5vVT_Cp7c?si=8BQSDhNCxGOAHjsr or https://youtu.be/44gbx5VEYPY?si=XNASMTOMohopmIhf

Jacob Collier: https://youtu.be/IQvzX0Z3HE4?si=s_C9g57JH69gaKYj and https://youtu.be/nspqYGz-Z1s?si=yleeBaKox1Cxm8yW

It’s kind of interesting to see all the weird correlations Spotify has pulled out of thin air. Apparently Fort Collins listens to a lot of Sleep Token, Brandi Carlile, and Jacob Collier.

Fort Collins, Colorado for me

Aftermarket hard top that locked into the top of the tailgate. You could unlock the tailgate but wouldn’t be able to pull it down.

If memory serves me the hardtop keys were given to someone to get a tool and never returned to the driver.

I have been in that exact position before. The hard cover was locked and the keys for it disappeared somewhere on the job site. We needed the piece of crown moulding to finish a job we were working on so we did exactly what you see in the photo.

I will copy my response to another poster:

Can’t speak for the US as a whole but everywhere I’ve lived Domino’s is the cheapest. I can get a medium 2 topping pizza at dominoes for $6.99. We have 3 family run traditional pizza places within driving distance of where I live, for a 2 topping medium pizza they cost: $14.75, $15.99, or $18.99.

I love when people like the guy you responded to show up, it’s so easy to block them on Lemmy.

Sorry, definitely touched a nerve.

I am really enjoying Lemmy but the vast amount of users that are proponents of piracy/ad blocking without being open to ANY discourse is really frustrating and gets super annoying.

There is a post about Blockbuster phasing out DVD’s. One commenter said since the enshittification of streaming services they and their friends have been buying more physical media so not being able to go to Blockbuster kind of sucks. Some users immediate reaction was to call them out for “being stupid” and providing a link for free streaming (aka piracy) and that “as long as you have ublock then you’re good to go”.

There are people here on Lemmy that will one second scream " work reform! Unionize! Pay me a living wage!" And then immediately turn around and say “Yea, I’m going to do everything in my power to prevent these creators of media from making money. Adblock + PiHole + VPN + Piracy is the only way to use the internet. They don’t deserve my money”

I frequently pirate movies, AFTER I have purchased a physical copy of said movie. Someday I hope that we can use something like the blockchain to tie ownership to digital files regardless of platform but at the moment that’s a pipe dream.

So in the mean time, I will have my ads or I will pay my monthly fee’s, because I want people to be paid for what they created. Even if it’s Disney or Marvel or insert giant company here they created something that didn’t exist before that I enjoy. They deserve to make money off that.

Some people don’t base their entire personality around hating the existence of ads and jumping through outrageous amounts of steps to avoid them.

So yeah, count me in for a TV that always works how I want it to but had a background ad that I can completely ignore and has no actual bearing on my life.

There are so many more important things for me to spend my time and energy worrying about.

Man this guy needs some better sized monitors. He’s going to have some serious eye strain trying to get work done on those tiny things at that distance.

Oh man, if you have a Lego store anywhere near you then you are in for a treat! Every store I’ve been to has a literal tower of bins that are filled to the top with Lego mini fig parts. You can custom build you’re own mini figs exactly as you want with one caveat: They may not have the EXACT piece that you are looking for but coming up with your character with some limitations is half the fun.

My personal favorite that I have created is Minifig Richard Hammond:

If you are artistically inclined at all you could look into Titancraft, Hero Forge, or Eldritch Foundry. They have online custom miniature creators, some will print them for, and some will even paint them for you.

It’s a phrase some people use. Specifically prevalent in California. “Parking their Ass in the left lane” Means somebody driving in the left lane at 10mph below the speed limit.

I can’t even begin to count how many times I have come acrossa slew of 5 star reviews for something COMPLETELY unrelated to the listed item at the very top of search results. Product: Wood Headphone Stand. Review: This kitchen whisk is so amazing, it saved my marriage, 23 out of 5 stars.

OH and don’t forget the reviewer that when you access their profile you see that they have posted 76 reviews in a single day and every single one of them is 5 stars with the title "Great ‘X’! " where x is the product title.

Don’t get me wrong, I used Amazon back when it only sold books and I’ve been using Prime since it came out non-stop but the quality of the items, the search results, and the trust I have in the platform has gone waaaaaaaaaay down.

Seriously, I average 3.5 hours of watch time a day so I am paying roughly 10 cents per hour. That is a phenomenal deal. I can’t think of any other form of entertainment anywhere remotely near that cheap.
