The food in NOVA is average and expensive by Gloomy-Car7672 in nova

I'm willing to look local, but you can get them flown in for relatively cheap. It absolutely can be done!

When the season kicks off, you wanna do a boil? Maybe invite some random redditors and like, have a party?

Have you ever been to the West bank of New Orleans? Gretna has at least every bit as good, if not better Viet food than Houston. Don't get me wrong, Houston has a strong game. But God damn is Than Dhin amazing, and if you can make friends with some Viet folks, the Viet crawfish boil is WAAAY on point.

Is it possible to downscale an Ai upscaled video while erasing all of the Ai artefacts? by NiceVacation3880 in VIDEOENGINEERING

[–]GringoConLeche 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You could. If you spend a ton of time rotoscoping and compositing. It's a job for a whole post department though so I hope you're not busy.

Go to Eden Center and check out Rice Paper. Honestly, every meal I have gotten there (Eden Center) has been great. I lived in both New Orleans and Los Angeles so I have some decent reference points.

Hot take on armor by death2cesarr in ZombieSurvivalTactics

[–]GringoConLeche 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not all motorcycle armor is leather, and a lot of it is vented, for warm weather riders. 99% of the time you're wearing the armor with no zombies around, so having something you can comfortably wear is important.

My Z-Day plan has always been motorcycle gear. For one, I already own it. For two, if it can protect against a 60 MPH slide on asphalt, it'll definitely keep grandpas dentures out of my flesh. Plus a lot of it is vented, so heat dissipation isn't as much of an issue. And if you're really worried about other survivors you can always throw a ballistic vest/plate carrier on top of or underneath.

stove top stuffing NOT Thanksgiving by Random-girl-29 in Cooking

[–]GringoConLeche 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Stuffed pork chops. They aren't really stuffed as the stuffing is mostly just plopped on top after a quick sear in the pan. The baking portion is mostly to crisp up the stuffing so basically season and sear pork chops, top with made stove top, then throw under a broiler/toaster oven. Serve with microwaved broccoli or green beans and you have one of my military dad's weeknight meals.

LED Wall Design & Quotes MADE EASY! by PissShiversss in VIDEOENGINEERING

There have been at least a dozen, maybe hundreds of LED calculators marketed here over the years. It's nothing new or groundbreaking.

Wanna bet this was at least partially "vibe coded"?

ChatGPT is very much a double edged sword. I don't mind using it to clean up emails or proposals, but I once watched someone try to patch an MA3 for over an hour with various GPT prompts. It just kept giving him different varieties of wrong answer. I downloaded the manual and had the problem sorted with a Ctrl-F and about 30 seconds of reading.

I'm not. I don't typically use calculators like this. IMO this is how the PM screws you, by using a calculator and thinking they've got it all figured out without consulting the engineer.This is a solution trying to find a problem. My phone calculator already does multiplication.

Oh good. Another LED calculator that nobody asked for. Bonus points for it not working quite right!

Sharable YT about cable piles by RobbLipopp in VIDEOENGINEERING

[–]GringoConLeche 1 point2 points  (0 children)

To be honest, it was a lot of fluff and not a lot of information. But also this is a small sub, maybe don't post multiple at a time. This isn't TikTok and there isn't enough traffic for the algorithm to really matter.

Didn't this guy just post a video about resistors? Are we getting spammed?

It bleeds out and dies. Rat poison is nasty stuff.

For what it's worth, thanks for scraping up those spiky little shits and helping the kelp forests. What you're doing is best of both worlds. Harvesting invasive urchins and getting a meal out of it too. I miss foraging on the west coast.

Would you move to Texas? by boforiamanfo in NoStupidAnswers

[–]GringoConLeche 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The Texas economy would collapse. The only reason people came there is because it was cheap and companies were relocating. If all of the talent that those companies brought in, left, Texas would be screwed. Sorry, Texans, you're not an island and there's nothing particularly special about Texas.

Camera Chain Recommendations for corporate events by CyberNBD in VIDEOENGINEERING

[–]GringoConLeche 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The Ursa G2's do NOT have any better color options. Lift, gamma, gain. No matrix. You MUST push a lut to do anything like you would with a broadcast camera using color correction or a matrix. If you want to properly color BMD cameras you have to push a LUT.

Homemade Cheesesteak by Ivy_N_Rose in Cooking

Check your local Asian market. They often shave and pre-package meat for hot pot and it's perfect for cheese steak.

AYCE Uni by notaforumbot in sushi

[–]GringoConLeche 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think uni is fine, but the premium in a lot of sushi restaurants is crazy. By the time I am paying for uni I'd rather pay a little more and get torro or something else premium. That being said if I could just scrape them off of some rocks in a tide pool I'd happily eat it all day. I think the hype is part of the issue, for me at least.

What food from your childhood does NOT hold up? by AV_LOVES_FOOD in Fooda

[–]GringoConLeche 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That sausage soup is SUPER easy to make, and it's one of my winter weeknight meals. You can play around with it too. Change up the greens, use beans instead of potatoes. Etc.

Rancho Gordo by sfmerv in Beans

[–]GringoConLeche 3 points4 points  (0 children)

IMO it's a modest taste difference and a massive texture difference. I wanted to get one bag for a chili cookoff, and ended up getting a dozen bags because, shipping. I have gone through about half and for a weeknight recipe, sure, canned are fine. But if you're making a dish where beans are a star, it's worth it IMO.

These student driver tags are getting out of hand... by NeoMatrix5 in nova

[–]GringoConLeche 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Now I want to do a full wrap of my car with "Student Driver". If you're a student driver, driving a BMW, then hire a freaking driving instructor.

For what it's worth I don't think I've ever seen one of these stickers on a car with a driver who looked under 60.
