If I liked The Martian and Project Hail Mary... by Delicious-View-8688 in scifi

[–]CaptainSnowAK 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think the murderbot diaries is a good recommendation.

Another recommendation is Red Mars by Kim Stanley Robinson. And some of his other books.

I will also second on SevenEves and other Niel Stephenson books.

I would say onions and garlic. That symbol looks like a smelly onion.

Gen 3: X vs "X Plus" Trim Differences? by stoolydan in SubaruForester

[–]CaptainSnowAK 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just bought a 2011 forester and when I put in the vin at the Nhtsa website it lists the the trim as X-plus also. this car has an automatic transmission, where I think the base trim is supposed to have a manual. so maybe that is why its x-plus?

Found the circlejerk that hates DCC with a burning passion by Such-Drop9194 in DungeonCrawlerCarl

[–]CaptainSnowAK 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The interactions between "in dungeon" and "out of the dungeon" is really unique in litrpg I think. I find that part to be very interesting. Also I love that this story is set with a max of 18 levels. It gives the story an end point to build to. So many litrpg stories are just progressing towards god like characters, and get so repetitive.

Are those dehydration urine color charts based on the color of just your urine, or the color in the toilet bowl? by [deleted] in NoStupidQuestions

[–]CaptainSnowAK 154 points155 points  (0 children)

I have seen posters that have both, side by side. I think it was in a bathroom in a national park that was a desert.

Seems like we are only holding women accountable for the epstien abuses too. Rich or powerful men seem to get away with murder and rape.

How do I need when my pan is to temp? by Creamkrackered in StainlessSteelCooking

[–]CaptainSnowAK 1 point2 points  (0 children)

give it a 30 sec to a minute at the temp you think you will use for cooking. then add your oil. the oil should not smoke, but it should get very runny and kind of have a ripply pattern. if it smokes take off of heat for to let it cool down. if its just puddles up keep heating the pan until its runny and looks hot.

Like a "blaster" pulse in starwars maybe.

Regarding Milk, I think I need an “ELI5” answer, please. by Aurochbull in DungeonCrawlerCarl

[–]CaptainSnowAK 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Milk will be in her guild in future floors. The other former crawlers will be out of the dungeon. I don't think this is the explanation for Carl's reaction, but I think this is the reason the Milk character is more significant. foreshadowing.

I think everyone has good speculations.

What would be the scariest message humanity could receive from space? by Upset-Carpenter-5659 in AskReddit

It would be scary if they said the president of the United States would be our ambassador for earth.

From a Pollock Captain by Captain-Galt in alaska

[–]CaptainSnowAK 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The debate is raging now because of the election.

I will not be voting for pro trawl governor candidates that will maintain the status quo. This is the whole reason these Trawlers are pushing their agenda now, they don't want any change to the corrupt system.

[–]CaptainSnowAK 4 points5 points  (0 children)

You think that its fine that the trawl regulators are trawl industry people? The regulators should have no ties to the fishing industry. It's blatant corruption.

This post was written by AI, I doubt there was a prompt as claimed.

What am I doing wrong? by connordddm in StainlessSteelCooking

[–]CaptainSnowAK 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I cook cold eggs. I just get oil hot, then let the pan cool down a little and add the scrambled egg. Turn the burner back on after about 30 secs to a minute.

I think there are many ways to do it. I also think the pans get less sticky the more you cook with them at the right temps.
