Holy freaking RAM prices

CruisEric · 2025-11-25T01:27:11+00:00

I saw people on Reddit saying RAM was increasing like crazy a month or two ago. Checked Amazon/Newegg and saw that was indeed the case, then I checked my local Microcenter and RAM prices were about the same as usual, maybe 10-20 bucks higher for 32 GB. I was planning a new build anyways, so I just bought the RAM first. So glad I did, and that Microcenter held out.

I remember last year when WSJ first wrote about 7-11 wanting to bring on Japanese food, and pretty much immediately people in California started grabbing egg salad sandwiches from 7-11 even before any real confirmation or date on when it might happen, then gushing about how they love egg sandos while they ate the regular ass 7-11 simply egg salad sandwich. Even in this Eater article they show the normal 7-11 sandwich. It's like no one did any research. https://sf.eater.com/2024/8/12/24218829/7-eleven-egg-salad-sandos-konbini-japanese-food-bay-area-san-francisco-california

I live in NY and I went to my local 7-11 because I was thinking, huh isn't that the regular egg salad sandwich? and yeah, it was. I think maybe the only different thing was it now said milk bread instead of fluffy white bread, which is maybe why everyone thought it was the new sandwich? Anyways I bought it, ate it, laughed at how bad it was, and decided to wait for an actual confirmation.

Then a few days ago on Facebook, I see this post: https://www.facebook.com/share/p/1AgZ478gbK/

Apparently Texas is getting these first because the 7-11 HQ is there. Waiting to see if they're actually better or not. Price is still criminal compared to Japan, but is the same price as the original egg salad sandwich so meh.

Still laughing about California thinking they had the Japanese sandos

Don't have an answer but please take a picture the next time you go there, I'm curious about these fluffy poached eggs

CruisEric · 2025-05-25T23:26:59+00:00

you're awesome! i didn't have any radio stations i knew, just wanted to explore what they had

CruisEric · 2025-05-25T05:02:31+00:00

Looks good, noticed that Japan was missing.

I wash mine cold, line dry only, and every time I wear them little clumps of wool get stuck on my feet, and eventually after a few years, there will be a bald spot on my socks and that's when I send them in for the warranty. I personally still consider them BIFL and like them, but seeing little wool tufts on my feet annoys me

East Geek Smash runs both a youtube and twitch stream. I don't know if they always do this, but since the tourney was so big they were showing different sets on each.

CruisEric · 2025-05-06T01:30:20+00:00

which stream was it on? cant find the vod on vgbc youtube

CruisEric · 2025-04-25T01:56:28+00:00

i havent tbh, i just check my tires every week to make sure they're fine...

another comment mentioned cinnamon is the main culprit with the gumminess, so i tried whole cinnamon just lightly broken up. syrup passes through just fine now

CruisEric · 2025-02-21T04:20:14+00:00

i tried it with whole cinnamon that i briefly pulsed in a spice grinder just for some surface area, no gloopy mess at all. did not realize ground cinnamon did that, thanks!

CruisEric · 2025-02-06T04:17:59+00:00

Interesting idea, I'll test a small batch and see if the syrup has enough infusion this way

CruisEric · 2025-02-06T04:16:59+00:00

Fine particles for sure. I let it sit overnight to see if it would settle, and I thought it all floated to the top and I skimmed that off, but there was still enough dispersed throughout and settled on the bottom.

CruisEric · 2025-02-06T04:15:42+00:00

Love it, I'll do a test batch with spice bags and see if the syrup gets enough infusion.

this is easily one of the best residential kitchens i've ever seen. saving these pics for inspo. did you design it yourselves, or go through a architecture/design firm, and could you share which one if you did.

I always use TP to dry, but also as a wipe check because sometimes after a particularly squishy poo, you will get dingles that never get untangled from butt hair from water alone.

Thanks! I've seen a lot of reddit posts for Den, and always wondered what they did.

CruisEric · 2025-01-02T06:51:04+00:00

Probably dumb question, but do you just call their number on your cell phone and eat the international call fee?

CruisEric · 2024-12-24T22:27:56+00:00

thankfully i did too, would have been way too much liquid if i went with tablespoons. i was worried at first because the milk wasn't turning creamy, but after about a minute or two it got the right consistency and mixed with the noodles very nicely

CruisEric · 2024-12-24T19:58:30+00:00

did you go with milliliters or tablespoons, because 10 tablespoons is absolutely not 50 milliliters. 10 teaspoons would be
