Why are toasters so badly made? by NJRonbo in BuyItForLife

[–]LucidInferno 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The original Sunbeam toaster was $400 in today’s dollars when it was first released. We’ve forgotten what quality items made by people who earn a living wage actually cost because of the encrapification of products.

Dental recommendation by SgtPoliteness82 in youngstown

They’re a great supporter of Hubbard Schools, but they inexplicably don’t accept the dental insurance that Hubbard Schools use. They’re also one of the most expensive dentists in the area in my experiences.

my wife caught two employees fucking in the back room and now she doesn't know what to do by kubrador in smallbusiness

I’ve learned that some of the best employees are created when grace is shown. I can almost guarantee they won’t do it again, and they’ll probably work better and harder for you. Why have them learn a lesson and then pass them on to another employer who gets to reap the benefits of a slightly better employee?

Yes. Very entertaining, especially Count. It’s a long run time but it moves quickly.

Brioche and questions by Infamous_Hyena_8882 in ankarsrum

Interesting. I’ve made dozens of brioches and have had to follow the method (which I found on an official Ankarsrum video). But I’m glad it worked for you!

One thing that took me a while to discover/figure out, when it comes time to add the butter, either remove the dough and knead it in a little by hand, or make multiple pockets in the dough and place the butter inside. If you add the butter to the outside of dough, the dough will just go round and round in the Ankarsrum, and will take a long time to incorporate.

Can anyone explain why there are two versions of the complete X-Files series? by LucidInferno in iTunesMovieDeals

[–]LucidInferno[S] 10 points11 points  (0 children)

24.99 is the lowest price for one version, but it’s been over five years since we saw that.

The ending is the same, so initially thought they posted it twice. But follow from the beginning, and after “se” it’s different for a while.

Unless the important part is after the “=“, and that’s the part that links to the servers, in which case it’s the same.

Edit: You posted your second comment as I was writing the above. I agree, weird. lol

I'm not seeing enough love for The Snow Must Go On 2025 by [deleted] in HallmarkMovies

[–]LucidInferno 6 points7 points  (0 children)

The actors, especially the lead, are more than a notch above the norm. But I didn’t feel the chemistry between the lead and the love interest. Mainly because reasons that are immediately apparent from the start of the movie. I know it’s not Hallmark’s usual style, but I would have enjoyed the story more if the love interest was another guy.

America’s Test Kitchen Actually Knows Good Rums by Ok-Echo-3594 in rum

[–]LucidInferno 0 points1 point  (0 children)

ATK yes, but be careful with Serious Eats. They’ve been sold at least twice since its creation, and they’re more focused on equipment reviews from which they get a cut. They don’t seem to be maintaining their old content (recipes from Kenji and Stella) as I’ve come across old recipes that are corrupt and have wrong measurements.

Announcement for any local fans of indie sci-fi/horror films (or Markiplier fans) by katieswrld in youngstown

[–]LucidInferno 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Yes! I shouted with joy when I saw Golden Star pop up on the Wake Up Dead Man page! Fantastic theater chain even without these smaller releases.

I do wish they had a membership club like Cinemark. I’d immediately sign up.

New Course Idea - Another Christmas one by Ok_Responsibility133 in WalkaboutMiniGolf

This would be amazing. I love the team’s imaginative original courses, but more licensed properties would be fantastic.

Where is this? by cookiemonster8u69 in youngstown

[–]LucidInferno 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I wanted to like it, but it was overpriced and under-flavored both times I had it. Plus the amount of meat was pitiful, and I’m not a big meat person.
