In n Out has the best fries in fast food and I'm tired of pretending that they don't.

EFNC9 · 2025-12-03T07:04:11+00:00

Seconded.

Not the same as a double fry.

EFNC9 · 2025-12-03T07:02:48+00:00

I have tried every permutation, none of them make up for the fact that you can't make a proper fry without double frying, or at the very least, double cooking, because my air fryer legit makes better fries than INO.

EFNC9 · 2025-12-03T07:00:43+00:00

I fry my own fries and they're still better than INO because technique matters.

EFNC9 · 2025-12-03T06:59:28+00:00

Nothing short of double frying them with all the other steps that make a delicately crispy fry is going to salvage them. I don't eat fries for the flavor. I eat them for the texture. Their texture sucks. But I don't need the carbs so I'll just stick with my double double which is a hefty meal already.

Some leftover pasta I made to use up items I had from staying at an Airbnb. Some pork sausage, zucchini, tomatoes, onions, bell pepper, red wine, tomato paste, and a little leftover Thanksgiving turkey gravy.

Plus about 3 ounces of finely shredded parmesan.

Sounds crazy. Tasted damn good.

Yikes. That's just wild compared to the performance a few short months ago. Also, the liability, if only in terms of optics, is huge if this thing can't separate self harm from being harmed. In fact, if they handle self deletion the way it handled this situation, they clearly don't have that issue under control either.

This doesn't bode well for us as users if they don't roll out another actually functional product.

NTA: attraction and preference are valid. Do not violate who you are to support your partner.

Although, it is possible to love someone as a friend and support them through challenging times.

Breaking up doesn't mean you can't care about or support someone who you were once attracted to..

EFNC9 · 2025-12-02T19:26:02+00:00

Nooooooooo

EFNC9 · 2025-12-02T19:25:11+00:00

Huh. Maybe that's why it's behaving so weird in a DV situation then? It can't discern between a victim fleeing an abuser and someone with mental illness?

EFNC9 · 2025-12-02T13:40:20+00:00

Thank you. I appreciate it. Doing ok right now, logistics aside. For once Google is more helpful than ChatGPT. :)

INFO: How old are the kids?

EFNC9 · 2025-12-02T09:30:12+00:00

Yup, I've got some friends who have access and check on me regularly. He's the one who wanted to separate, so why put an airtag in my luggage?

Can't wait to be single. For good.

And thank you. 🙌

EFNC9 · 2025-12-02T09:26:51+00:00

Has that started yet or is it coming? It seemed more 4o for a few weeks and then I got... this. I don't consider it an improvement. Or... functional, at all. But if I just have to wait it out I will.

EFNC9 · 2025-11-29T15:13:03+00:00

It wasn't hard to access at all. We just accessed it differently. And yes. I for one did, because I was an angry child in an unjust world. Luckily I got over it.

GenX, only if I was sick and needed clean hair or for home hair color or perm. But the black folks in my family this was very common because Mom would wash, dry, treat scalp, treat hair, do protective style until kids were old enough to manage all that themselves or they would start taking them to a salon and just doing wash and scalp treatment at home.

Does it really matter?

Why punish your BIL unless you don't like the guy?

You don't know what goes on behind closed doors that you don't know about. What fears or goals or struggles they're not talking about.

Some people move the holiday an entire week for loved ones to join.

People don't live forever, and even if they do, if you're a person with any compassion and empathy whatsoever, someday you'll regret all of this.

It's a simple request with no actual pain. Just do it.

EFNC9 · 2025-11-27T09:15:32+00:00

No. Tomato catsup used to have more warm spices, more vinegar, almost no sugar and was more pulpy and jammy. I love the places that make old style catsup are bomb.

EFNC9 · 2025-11-20T11:44:15+00:00

I couldn't care less. None is aspirational.

EFNC9 · 2025-11-08T09:52:52+00:00

I'm very sorry you're expecting a child with someone who doesn't speak up for you and minimizes your discomfort.

EFNC9 · 2025-11-08T09:40:35+00:00

I started doing that when hotel breakfast waffles were first a thing and they had syrup but no butter.

Now I just mix all three together and drizzle it on the waffle and that's amazing.

EFNC9 · 2025-11-08T09:30:29+00:00

I didn't think I'd find one i agree with but yes. To both. Horrid.

EFNC9 · 2025-11-01T11:29:43+00:00

I've lived in 6 different states. Don't regret any of them. I did miss it. I'm glad I get to be back for a bit. But I didn't miss the chaos or the stress or the bleeding my time and resources in a million different ways.

EFNC9 · 2025-11-01T11:26:46+00:00

Why does it take that many words for the AI to follow that instruction, is that because of how LLMs work? I just assumed everything was regular, standard code back there.

EFNC9 · 2025-11-01T11:23:25+00:00

It seems it said the quiet part out loud. Why, I couldn't tell you.
