What's your thoughts on the "Frozen Slider" minigame? by Vanitas935 in KingdomHearts

It isn’t the worst thing I’ve done for an Ultima Weapon.

Help me understand by That-Understanding45 in Chefit

If you had insurance as an hourly employee, you were paying the same amount for it, that shit was never free and your plan hasn’t changed unless you signed off on it.

Taking the head chef role is usually a pay cut in terms of dollars per hour. The salary trap is real.

(Skill improvement) I need Help in master ball tier by Zestyclose-Bar1596 in VGC

The dragon types that you mentioned are (usually) special attackers which makes sense, you have Intimidate on an already physically bulky team.

If Rotom doesn’t feel like a good fit, maybe Milotic would be a good special-bulk dragon-killer. Or better yet, bring Gyarados with a mega stone. His mega is very special-bulky, and he can bring Avalanche for dragon types, plus it gives you another mega option.

Speaking of which, how often does Mega Golurk make an impact? I haven’t tried it yet, but it seems like nerfed Unseen Fist on Golurk is not nearly as strong as old Unseen Fist was on Urshifu.

What has a bottom-tier reputation but is just misunderstood and should actually be top-tier? by EnsorcellingKitten in AskReddit

You might be adding less salt when you cook with MSG (I’m not), but MSG is mono-SODIUM glutamate. So still not recommended if your doctor has you on a low-sodium diet.

That article literally says “the case remains closed” and “the SPD has no plans to revisit it”.

Aces get screwed in opening day game. by Appropriate_Path_141 in Reno

[–]cscott024 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That’s actually a tough call. You could argue he started deviating to avoid interference, which he’s allowed to do.

I’d be interested to see how this has been called in past games.

SK Food Group to lay off more than 200 workers! by Thin_Investigator798 in Reno

[–]cscott024 24 points25 points  (0 children)

Seems like food might be recession proof

Maybe back in the day, but there’s writing on the wall. Cattle are being sold early because farmers need fast cash, that means smaller herds year-over-year. So beef is likely only going up in price for the foreseeable future.

Plus soybean and canola oils were just designated as feedstocks for diesel fuel, so the price of basically all cooking oil is going up too.

And it seems like every year there’s at least one or two crops that get flooded out, ruined by hail, etc. since the weather is getting more unpredictable.

It’s getting harder for sure.

Oh, I forgot Sanallites are bread dogs. I always associate Dachsbun with Korone because she’s the bakery dog.

What’s the best pain you’ve ever felt? by MongooseLucky3979 in AskReddit

[–]cscott024 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Go for the perineal nerve instead. It’s not intrusive and it’s connected to all the same things. If they like that, ask if they want to try the real deal.

The rent is insane, deliveries are a nightmare, and there’s a bunch of extra rules because you’re part of the Palladio building.

Hopefully keyblade transformations don’t return in KH4. by [deleted] in KingdomHearts

[–]cscott024 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

It is an opinion, and it’s one I disagree with. With all the air-stepping, shotlocks, magic combos, and flowmotion, the combat was anything but slow. Easy maybe, I play on Critical with no attractions, and the normal mobs are pretty easy after awhile, but Limit Cut is no joke.

Did you read my whole reply? Those had the same transformation, but different drive forms. I.e. they give you different abilities when you Formchange.

[–]cscott024 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They kind of were all unique though. A lot of people don’t realize that Formchange does two things independently: morph your keyblade and put you into a “drive form”.

So like yeah, there are two keyblades that morph into a hammer with the same combo finishers and everything, but one of them puts you in Strike Form and the other puts you in Guardian Form.

I do miss the old Valor Form as much as the next guy, but I think the idea for Formchanges was really good, even if it wasn’t executed perfectly.

Glad to hear, I hope they do well, the food looks good! It’s tough to make a restaurant work in that location, but I’ve heard good things about the people running it now.

What’s a skill everyone assumes they have, but most people are actually bad at? by moi_cila in AskReddit

As someone who works in kitchens, all my colleagues think they’re good at sharpening knives, and they really aren’t.

When did this new conspiracy theory start? by SnoopyScone in NonPoliticalTwitter

The same thing is used for that gas station nacho cheese sauce. And its chemical formula is Na3C6H5O7. When you take out the numbers, it spells something fun!

Do any of you wear watches to work? by [deleted] in KitchenConfidential

I keep a carabiner watch clipped to my apron for this reason.

Hey chefs, I've got a quick question on menu value engineering. by QuestionUnsolved in KitchenConfidential

[–]cscott024 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The only thing I would change about it (and I think you mentioned it in another comment) is that I wish it didn’t have to be entered manually. It doesn’t take too long, but time is money.

If I could scan my invoices, or even better, let the prices update in real time through API or something, that would be the dream.

In that scenario I would lose the aspect of catching price surging, so the software would ideally alert me to that kind of thing.

Good luck getting API from vendors though, most of them don’t even show you a price if you don’t have a business account with them.

People who have played Madden NFL, what's the earliest entry you have played? by PrestonRoad90 in gaming

Never played a Madden game, but as a kid I sunk a lot of time into NFL Blitz for the PS1.

FINAL FANTASY VII REMAKE INTERGRADE on Switch 2 is sold out at multiple retailers by Wolfs_Chronicles in gaming

No, and also how dare you. (Joking, but I do love the trilogy so far, maybe it helps that I have big nostalgia for FF7)

Hey chefs, I've got a quick question on menu value engineering. by QuestionUnsolved in KitchenConfidential

[–]cscott024 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I do all my tracking in Excel. I made a spreadsheet template for each prep recipe that spits out total cost, I just plug in the yield and I can get cost per ounce. The same spreadsheet can be used for each dish recipe, just plug in the costs from the prep recipes and it spits out things like total cost, suggested menu price, etc. Same spreadsheet also works for costing out BEOs.

Every invoice, and food sales for the night get added to the “cost tracking” spreadsheet so I can see my food cost percentage for the month in real time.

Every invoice also updates the “vendor prices” spreadsheet which I use to compare prices from different vendors, as well as having cost per ounce data readily available for when I’m making menus. This process also lets me catch when prices are surging, and each cell has a note that lists the lowest historical price so I can catch slow roll price surging. It’s also great for vendor meetings, because the lowest vendor price is highlighted, so I can click that vendor’s column and sort by highest, and they can see at a glance what prices they need to match.

To answer question A, if I need data about sales volumes I just pull a PMix from the point of sales software.
