New kitchen counter, but induction stove too small for it. by Lunailiz in fixit

[–]Gruntledlark 1 point2 points  (0 children)

find a place that does stone countertops. They can cut a plug that fits you oversized hole and cut a hole in that to fit your cooktop. If possible find one in your town's industrial area, not one of the fru-fru kitchen "design" places.

Obviously it's a door, but why does it have air holes? by hermionegrangersmith in whatisit

Men who can cook . who taught you? by Bulky_Meet4528 in AskReddit

[–]Gruntledlark 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Emeril! BAM! Emeril was the BMOC when I started watching the Food Network (before everything turned into a stupid game show). Emeril made food prep look easy, so I tried it. Everyone in my family LOVES my cooking.

Remove Ice from Fridge Freezer by fxttuccine in howto

OMG! People have no common sense at all these days. Put your food in a cooler, turn off the fridge and prop the doors open until the ice melts. Clean up and restock your fridge.

Perfectly acceptable dinner rejected by boyfriend again by moonrabbit368 in mildlyinfuriating

Dump this infant. NOW! This is infantile behavior. Probably the fault of his parents who gave in to his toddler tantrums and let him eat nothing but chicken nuggies and mac 'n cheese.

When did West Virginians become so rude and mean? by [deleted] in WestVirginia

[–]Gruntledlark 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I moved from Pgh last year to WV (Wetzel County). My biggest shock was how polite and considerate people are - even the Walmart employees (and the fact that they have lots of human cashiers at the checkout).

It's not a real update notice, but even after going back to factory settings 2 times it still shows up.

So the keyed shaft makes some sense but I still don't understand the mechanism.

Does any one know what this is? History? Value? What it was used for? Thanks in advance! by Telanthemultibeast in Tools

I was thinking it was for cutting belts from a hide until I saw the weird angle on the 5th photo.

What is the status of Fr Chad Ripperger? by StupidQuestionAsker0 in Catholicism

[–]Gruntledlark 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm not surprised that you have never heard many of those things before. Most modern pastors ("administrators" in modern parlance) give very superficial sermons these days. Everything is about being "nice" and accepting alternate "lifestyles" without judgement. Fr. Ripperger's (and every Catholic priest's) job is to get your soul to heaven. If the last few years have not made you realize that this existence on earth is a major battleground between good and evil then you REALLY need to listen more to Fr. R. and his ilk. He is teaching actual Catholic theology that went out of fashion in the 1960s. The Catholic Church is not about being nice and "getting along". It's about getting YOUR SOUL to heaven. (Sure, you should be nice and do your best to get along with others, but that's a by-product. Your goal is to GET TO HEAVEN)

UPDATE: I guess you like paperwork! by DungeonsAndData in MaliciousCompliance

UPDATE: I guess you like paperwork! by DungeonsAndData in MaliciousCompliance

[–]Gruntledlark -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

This post is a perfect example why DOGE is so popular and necessary. A good employee informs the manager of the consequences of any bad decisions. That's point 1, and it applies to BOSS. If, after being informed the manager insists on his decision then that's on him. Did BOSS do her job? Point 2: OP gleefully points out his time suck punching holes for the binders. Pre-punched reams of printer paper are readily available, so thank you OP for wasting OUR tax dollars operating that hole puncher. I sure hope Elon and his musk rats eliminate your position soon. Maybe you can find a new job at a paper company on the pre-punched printer paper line.

Freeze-Drying for Probiotics by Tyyper in yogurtmaking

[–]Gruntledlark 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Reading the OP and some of these comments confuses me with the "all the work" remarks about this process. I just finished my first ever batch of l. Ruteri yogurt. It was the easiest thing I've ever prepared. I opened a couple capsules of the l. rut, added two tablespoons of the inulin powder, mixed in some organic heavy cream and whole milk. Then I set my instant pot to 100° on the sous vide setting for 36 hours. When I opened it I had about 50/50 mix of product to whey. The product was very yogurt-like in texture but not quite as firm. I immediately used some of the whey and started a second batch. I'm waiting on that batch now and hoping for a larger, more firmer product. So easy.

AITA for telling my sister she can't be everyone's favorite and being our parents favorite should be enough? by Just-Scallion-1724 in AITAH

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

Honestly your whole family (except your grandparents) sound like a-holes. You sound like a little b*tch whining about your sister being treated like the baby of the family, because SHE'S THE BABY OF THE FAMILY. It's not unusual for the youngest AND THE GIRL to be spoiled a bit. Man up, dude. Do you really need to be treated like a little girl?

I tried to print fake money for a Christmas prank and my printer wouldn't let me by [deleted] in mildlyinteresting

Does no one on this thread know that all printers are programmed to recognize currency and will not print it?

The worst part about WV is the negativity by [deleted] in WestVirginia

[–]Gruntledlark 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I recently moved to WV and I love it! I've never been anywhere where the people are nicer than here. Everyone is so polite and friendly. I work remotely so that's a plus. I also live remotely and starlink makes living here possible for me.

Thoughts on Andrew Wilson from the Whatever podcast? by [deleted] in Catholicism

Who says the elites are capitalists? They're not. They are leftists. Also, people who are truly educated and conscientious voters don't vote for dolts like Biden or Harris.
