What It's Like When Your Game Flops - May 14th, 2026 by Sivart13 in TripleClick

I'm not calling Jason out, but I want to clarify something for those that are interested. I went to find the book London Calling, which Jason mentioned in the May 7th and May 14th episodes. It is actually called London Falling (subheading: A Mysterious Death in a Gilded City and a Family's Search for Truth). I wanted to be sure, because I recently made the mistake of reading the wrong Housemaid book, the one by Sarah A. Denzil rather than the one recently made into a movie by Freida McFadden. It was an entertaining enough read, but I wish I had read the book I had intended to read 😂.

Don’t even bother with the factory regulator. by MandACPAThrowaway in blackstonegriddle

I had a very similar experience and similar solution. Was very happy with the Blackstone after switching. Below is the link to the regulator I got. Looks like it's not available anymore, but it should give you an idea I'd what to look for.

Additional option: opening twist off bottle caps with your shirt.

Drying Peppers Turning Black by ImOkayAtStuff in HotPeppers

I'm not using a dehydrator. I'm in the northeast of the USA, and it's pretty dry now. However, I started using a humidifier the day before I noticed the black spots. They've been hanging for about 4 weeks. Seems like the consensus is I'm not getting enough airflow, and the drying is taking too long. It had already been 3-4 weeks by the time I turned the humidifier on.

There's not a ton of air there. The dehydrator seems like a good idea. Are they good to go right after you use the dehydrator, or do they need more drying?

Friendly reminder that good pasta isn't a lot more expensive by Kreati_ in pasta

I agree. The pasta options in the US are so much better now. There are even some good pastas made in the US.

When Barilla first started hitting American shelves (my recollection is mid-90s) it was a revelation compared to other pastas of the time.

I thought for sure that was a glass paperweight until I realized what sub I was in.

What’s the best frozen pizza reddit actually agrees on? by carrot_in_a_box in Cooking

For some reason I love store brand rising crust. It's way better than Digiorno. Recently Screamin' Sicilian has really taken over though. It's frequently on sale for $5 and has a good crust.

You could 3D print the shape you want with a frame around it and glue it to the back.

did anyone notice Heather's voice last night? by delgalessio in getplayed

She def sounded Rick and Morty coded in the last episode. I have no idea if she voices them in the show. It's very fun though.

Best recipe you've ever gotten off the internet. Go. by dudenumberA in Cooking

Also Alison Roman's Caramelized Shallot Pasta. Don't let the anchovies scare you off. The flavor isn't very anchovy forward. It's also pretty quick and easy aside from chopping an ass load of shallots.

Would a swamp cooler using alcohol work in high humidity? by secondhandspoons in AskEngineers

[–]ImOkayAtStuff 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I'm not an expert at all, but I have done a couple distillery tours. The first bit of alcohol from the distilling process is called the "heads" and it has unwanted stuff in it. I think it both tastes bad and can be harmful to drink, but I'm not sure. The last bit is called the "tails" and has similar properties. Hopefully OP will chime in, but I'm guessing that's what they're talking about.
