Got the game already and I am glad I ordered it when I did, sold out immediately after. Distribution center must have been close because it was ready for pick by noon the next day.

I don't have the game yet and, no offense, I keep FoH cut off from the rest of my online presence as much as possible so I won't be posting it here. It wouldn't be hard to find me elsewhere if you looked but that doesn't mean I will be friending anyone.

I think it is one island per console? The multiplayer seems to have a few different modes, for example you can have multiple characters on a single console and they all share the same island. You can also visit other people's islands, but I am not certain if you share it in the same way you do...

I do, but on the PC, she watched me play it a couple years ago but didn't seem super interested in playing herself. I ended up ordering the cart, hopefully it will be here in a couple of days.

Wife was just complaining about how she hates what rip offs phone games are and that she misses regular sims. I told her to look for something on my Switch and this just came out. Do you guys think this would appeal to someone that liked the sims? It looks more RPG/Gamey than the Sims but...

It is really easy, just takes some time. I used the perfect loaf method for a couple of weeks then went to once a week feedings from the fridge. The King Arthur method looks fine as well. I made a few different ones, the one I am most happy with I use 100% stone ground untreated rye flour. I...

Later in the report they modeled a strategy where you cycle the closures and social distancing measures so as not to fatigue people, but you still end up on more than off However, as posted in the other thread, Bill Gates in the Reddit AMA commented that the numbers used in that report turned...

Imperial College COVID-19 Report Looks pretty grim no matter what we do. I pulled out some charts.

Sounds like it was, thankfully, just something run of the mill. Glad you are feeling better and good luck to working at home :)

It looks like all the closures and cancellations have worked: Total cases have flat-lined and the number of new cases has fallen off a cliff. Now the only question is how long we need to maintain it.

It looks like the number of new cases dropped yesterday here in Norway. If so, shutting everything down does seem to help. Hopefully the trend continues.

Do you mean Pemmican?

I am fairly certain that is actually the Mooserboden hydroelectric plant in Austria near Kaprun, not Norway. (Oblig Picture) Vemork Hydroelectric Power Plant in Rjukan Norway; target of Operations Grouse, Freshman, and Gunnerside during WW2

Fair enough, I didn't go through the recipe. I usually eat bell peppers even when I am doing low carb and haven't found them to be much of a problem in general, but you are right in that it matter more in the context of the rest of the day.

I mean, "high carb" it is pretty relative. 1 bell pepper has about 5 grams of sugar, so while it wouldn't fit in a zero carb diet as long as you don't gorge on them without without fat or protein it probably won't kick you out of keto which depending on genetics let's you have up to 50 grams...

I eat a lot of lamb and sheep, especially in the fall, since it is raised locally. I wouldn't call it gamey, it just tastes like sheep, with mutton tasting more like sheep and needing longer cooking preparations due to toughness. It is a bit like the difference between a broiler and a laying...

Wife ran up to me the other day with her phone, turned it around, and said "Look! I found it for 20% off!" That was when I knew it was a lost cause. The exact one she wanted was on sale, which they almost never are as it seemed like they were trying to shift stock or something (even though it...

Tolkien never says exactly what Tom Bombadil is, but given a few clues such as him being immune to the ring's effects (while even Maiar can be corrupted by it) and his statement about just existing (similar to the old testament biblical god saying, "I am") most people think that he is Ilúvatar...

Depends on what you mean by "Gandalf" I suppose. If referring only to that particular incarnation as an Istari then you'd be right. However, if referring to the Maia spirit Olórin as an entity, then he was created by Ilúvatar before the Music of the Ainur; the song that created the Universe...

Being crazy cheap was the reason I even started making bread in the first place, the becoming obsessed with it came later. How is the recovery time on the oven? Can you just shovel them in one after the other or do you need to slap the door on in between? Did you use the recipe I gave you or...

The "best" (that is fastest and most reliable) game servers don't go anywhere windows. They are written in a functional language (like Erlang), run on apache, use a document database (i.e. JSON, BSON), and are totally client independent. There are downsides to that approach, such as...

I bought this on sale, but I am very much trying to wait until it officially releases. I am a Super Giant fanboy (although Pyre dropped the ball), so I think I will get the most out of it by being as patient as possible

I never use low moisture mozzarella, like you said it tastes like nothing. For a normal oven the regular stuff works just fine as long as you press the excess moisture out first. I think I picked this tip up from Alton Brown.

I know you don't understand words, so maybe a picture will help. These are aroma champignon mushrooms: Notice the darker pigment. While inside they are lighter, they are still quite dark, and when you cook them they become much darker due to those pigments. I've explained this to you...

Perfectly fine, I use normal bread flour with 13% protein, just up the hydration percentage a little. Try 65% at first and adjust if the bread is dry or if it is flat (too much water). I use a home oven so my hydration is super high (near 80%), I am not entirely sure how it will work with a...

There are lots of variations, but a simple one would be something like this: Caputo Cuoco Water for a 60% Hydration (filtered or bottled if you have shitty water) Instant Yeast - (about a teaspoon (4 grams) for every ~280 grams of flour Salt - 2% (this is how much I use) Mix water and yeast...

Just in my oven with the convection setting. I put the meat in at 160C laid out on wire racks and shut the door. I left it like that for about 8 minutes until all the pieces I measured at or above 71C (used a thermopop). This is a precaution to make sure any bacteria in the meat were dead...

From the picture that looks a bit rickety to put a dangerously hot piece of cooking equipment on, especially if you have kids running around. I don't know how much that costs but maybe a steel wheeled catering table would be better? Something like this? If it is wheeled then you can move it...

For eggs you probably want a small, 8 inch pan. Giving a specific recommendation is tough though, that is such a basic piece of equipment you can spend almost nothing or a shit ton of money. America's Test Kitchen recommends the OXO Good Grips Non-Stick Pro Dishwasher safe 8" Open Frypan...

That sounds awesome. I'd much prefer to go the dried/cured route, but with the wife being pregnant I made sure this batch was cooked to 70C. I find the texture just dried and not cooked better personally.

Made a bunch of beef jerky to vacuum seal. Used the Food Wishes recipe and it came out nice, I plan on trying some other recipes as well. Color is nicer than in the picture, I don't have proper color balanced lights so anything I take a picture of in the kitchen looks quite yellow.

Woops

Ah, yes, the Swedish line is Carbon Steel. I've been eyeballing a Carbon Steel knife because I am stupid and apparently want another pet to take care of :D I think I will hold off though, have a few other big purchases coming up soon. If you don't want to spend a lot then the Fibrox are...

I think the Misono is Stainless Steel, no? Besides that sharpening every 3 months for a knife you abuse means it is made from good steel to last even that long. If you don't want to maintain a knife then the go to move is to buy cheap stamped knives and run them through the sharpeners that...

Victorinox Fibrox is maximum bang for your buck IMO.

I would like to do this. At these prices it would be cheaper to fly to the US, go buy it, and fly it back as checked luggage. More realistically having someone in my family ship it to us, even with shipping and VAT (25%) is a way better option that paying such a ridiculous price.

I am Googling it now, thank you for the tip.

That's more or less the problem with everything here. Usually lower end stuff is to capture consumers that can't afford your high margin stuff, but if almost the entire country can afford those high margins you are only costing yourself money. I had the same experience the first time I bought...

Median income is about $60k per person I think, and almost all families have 2 working parents. Up until now about 2/3 of my take home has been going straight into the bank, so it isn't like we can't afford it. It is just absurd how much they cost. That $1500 one you order like a car, with...
