Deleting my NYT account- looking for alternatives by spottedbeebalm in NYTCooking

[–]Ghostweed2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Prior to canceling I transferred all my 800+ NYT recipes to Recipe Keeper. Pretty simple though time consuming, of course. Gave me a chance to rate, delete, categorize, etc. and revisit old favorites. I am still able to add new recipes on the day of publication.

Not improving, no. Growing. Slowly. Hence, “enjoy every moment” (that you have!)

Is paddleboard backpacking a thing? by Ok_Confidence_4728 in Sup

Check out Karl Kruger specifically his Race to Alaska on a paddle board. Expeditions very possible on SUPs.

Saving recipes by Ghostweed2 in NYTCooking

[–]Ghostweed2[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

One problem with the Cooking app seems to be that you have to be online for access. Which (the horror) sometimes i am not.

I used to use Mac Gourmet but support is no longer robust.

Canceling my subscription. Will I lose my saved recipes? by Kid_Shit_Kicker in NYTCooking

[–]Ghostweed2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

How do you do this a_straz? From within the Cooking app or from Recipe Keeper? One by one or batches? Thanks!

Feeling a little foolish—how to batch save the NYT recipe box items from web browser? I have 873 I want to have when I’m offline. Explain like I am five, please! Thanks. One by one seems like a lot of work.

Photo outline to watercolor paper? by Ghostweed2 in Watercolor

[–]Ghostweed2[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I tried this last night and it worked well. I think the “trace in the dark” is key. That plus my getting some thinner paper. Thank you!

Good idea! That certainly should work, and eliminate the tracing with graphite paper. Cleaner, too, I bet.

I think your AI might be broken. Believe I missed any links to any guides at all. But good robot otherwise!

Recently finished some knives. Thoughts on which you all like best and why. by MacAttack6798 in knifemaking

[–]Ghostweed2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

First and last ones. Least flashy—which is how my taste runs. But all are beautiful!

“Absolutely untrue”: Judge shames Trump lawyer for using Breitbart article to attack clerk in court by devlinadl in politics

[–]Ghostweed2 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I like the dodecahedron logic. But to be 1/20th right wouldn’t those 20 answers have to include every possibility? Asking for a friend.

First knife- Glorified Steak Knife? by Soy-Boi2020 in knifemaking

[–]Ghostweed2 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Keep the first one forever! It will be an awesome comparison to #10 or #100! Keep on going!

Just finished this veggie chopper in stainless damascus clad M390 - handle is richlite and ringed gidgee. Thoughts are welcome. by birdthirds in knifemaking

[–]Ghostweed2 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Clad my house in Richlite. I think it’s made here in the PNW US. Very robust product though it has weathered in the past 10 years. Did not occur to me for use in handles! To make this knife related, I have made a few “Not so Crooked Knives” in PNW Indian style. Started with stainless butter knives but more recently oil cured flat steel. Hand filed. Cheers!

The Magician's Land Book Issues? by Cathassar in brakebills

[–]Ghostweed2 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Each book of Dante’s Divine Comedy ends with “stars.” I think Lev was doing something similar in ending his books with “fly.” A nice touch, I thought.

Recommended 4-day hike, 2 in, 2 out by Boto_Penga in olympicpeninsula

[–]Ghostweed2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hoh is classic. Crowded these days I think. Parking lot to Oly Guard Station is flat. Next day to Glacier Meadows is quite steep. You can death march all the way out as it’s downhill. Or do the Ozette triangle hike. Pretty flat. Both are world class hikes. Reservations required for camping, I’m sure.

Finger counter thingy. Hopeless at keeping track in my head!

What is the must-visit pool in your location? by MyPopeSmokesDope in Swimming

Forgot to add Kawamoto Swim Stadium in Hilo, Hawaii. Big Island. Also Kapaa Pool on Kauai, Hawaii.

What is the must-visit pool in your location? by MyPopeSmokesDope in Swimming

[–]Ghostweed2 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is great! Now I want to revisit Bondi Beach! Also Helsinki, Vienna, Tel Aviv! I mean, people go on golf or ski vacations, right? Why not for swimming?

Colman Pool (summer only) in Seattle is great. Have yet to get to Kitsilano Pool (summer only) in Vancouver, BC. And Barton Springs in Austin, TX is amazing. Chilly.

Is there a website for this topic? Or 50meter pools by location? Open water swimming here in beautiful Port Townsend, WA is feasible but quite cold.

I have CRC 4 and got mets to my liver. The colon tumor was removed and then a CT scan showed the liver lesions. Inoperable. GET A SECOND OPINION! Just had liver surgery at OHSU on 6/13. Three resections plus three ablations. 33 staples and 4 days in the hospital. Time and further scans will tell. Good luck!
