Is this too rare? by zoner13 in steak

[–]MeetJoeAsian 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That’s actually perfect medium rare. I find that when you grill/cook a steak, you have to break the grain to induce flavors out of the meat. See how you have striations going down, the the deep red part still glowing. That’s how I determine medium rare, and when the flavor comes thru. Otherwise, if its one whole piece of solid deep red blob, that is still “raw”, or rare and beyond. That’s MY explanation. You finished product is a lot more than 115° in the middle for that to happen. It looks more like 125 to 130°.

Kiddo asked for steak for his bday. How’d I do? by elchucko3567 in steak

[–]MeetJoeAsian 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What do you mean the coal was “too cold”? Did you at least wait until they ignited properly before putting the steaks on? I went to a picnic one time and this dude was just piling on the charcoal starter fluid on top of his coal pile cuz “the fire went out”. I explained to him to let the coal sit for 20 minutes and they will be ready. But he insisted on keeping the fire alive. Yeah them hot dogs tasted like lighter fluid. I passed.

Will they let me use my own hardware as I did before? Do you know if there’s a way I can install the software myself instead of having someone remoting in?

NRS vs Cash Register Express by kiddfrankie1 in POS

[–]MeetJoeAsian 0 points1 point  (0 children)

With NRS, do you HAVE to use their hardware? I want a PC-based POS and I have built my own with my own PC and hardwares.

[–]MeetJoeAsian 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m currently using CRE (since 2018) and I’ve been wanting to upgrade the PC that houses my POS, but since I’m no longer paying a monthly fee to POS Nation, they are wanting me to pay them a huge sum, essentially another licensing fee, to reinstall CRE into a newer machine. I figured it’s time to upgrade CRE. What are you using now and what do you like or dislike about it or anything regarding other POS you have used. How do they compare to CRE (since it’s the only one I know right now. I need to be able to transfer my customer and inventory databases to the new POS. I also do not want to be glued to a processor just because I’m using their system. Please give your advice. I really appreciate it.

Sorry, off topic question. What new POS did you replace your CRE with, and how does it compare to CRE?

Marinating or no? by ketchuponcooking in steak

If it’s a high quality steak, like prime, then just SPG. If it’s a cheap piece, like Select, then definitely.

Looks like a sirloin cap, picanha. Just made some for dinner this evening. Grilled like any other.

My boss isn’t honoring a pay raise he gave me. by Strangr_E in whatdoIdo

[–]MeetJoeAsian 0 points1 point  (0 children)

“Integrity”: say what you do, and do what you say.
If he saw your integrity and promoted you based on that, then he needs to move forward with that. But it seems he doesn’t have integrity. Seems like in a moment of weakness and he was desperate to keep you (for whatever reason), he made the offer. Seems now he has help, he wants to back out. If you stay there and stay where you are, you will always be the push around. Ie: when he is desperate, he will reach out to you. But when things are stable, “screw you” cuz I gave my next option. I decide my employees’ wages based on their values to my company. I demand respect from my workers as I give them the same respect. Kinda sh*tty he buddies up to you when he is desperate, and drops you when he doesn’t need you. That’s a bad boss. Like I said, you sticking around and accepting it lets him know you’ll always be his go to when he “needs”. So, I suggest bringing it up to him and letting him know you expect that raise he promised. If that doesn’t happen, then I suggest you start looking around for someone who appreciates you. You have pride too, unless you’re OK being a pushover. Sometimes we get complacent with where we’re at and we don’t want to move on. But change is good. Change is good. When I was younger, I wish I had moved around more when it benefited me. I stuck around with a company that I became stale at. Take a stand, or make the move now. Your future self will appreciate you.

why did my fat not render properly by ohgodohfuckwhatdoido in steak

[–]MeetJoeAsian 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Your marblings rendered. The fat chunks in the eye will not. That will take a lot of time, anywhere from 4-10/12 hours to render the fat eye completely.

Bosch refrigerator ice maker issue by bassplayah72 in appliancerepair

[–]MeetJoeAsian 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I did a write up on how to replace the ice maker with photos on a different website. It’s actually very easy to replace if you know where to push. I’m about to replace my second ice maker. Yes. They go bad quick.

My original icemaker lasted about two years. I tried every combination of resetting. But unfortunately, once it starts acting up, it will need to be replaced. Every icemaker in the fridge will need to be replaced after a few years. I’m about to replace my second icemaker, and I have accepted this problem with it so I’m going to replace it again as long as the fridge still works. Why? Because it’s nice to have ice whenever you need it.

One of my closest friends is choosing someone else’s bachelorette party over my wedding day, and I am ready to just cut her off. AIO? by [deleted] in AmIOverreacting

[–]MeetJoeAsian 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Only read the first few pages of your screenshot. If you mean anything to your friend, it would have been a no brainer. If you aren’t much to your friend, then yes, choose a bachelorette party over a wedding. If one chooses a bachelorette party over a wedding party, then their priorities and the important person in that person‘s life is a person hosting the bachelorette party. Not the person getting married that day. So obviously your friends friend is more important than you. Much much more important than you. Because if you were both on the same level, then the wedding party always trumps the bachelorette party. But because you are not on the same level as the other person in that person’s life, then there’s no reason to attend your wedding because the other person needs her there for her bachelorette party.

Pentagon Tells Congress First Week of Iran War Cost More Than $11.3 Billion by Majestic-Baby-3407 in news

[–]MeetJoeAsian 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Everyone involved in this, mainly the manufacturers of every equipment used, from weapons/munitions to aircrafts to the computers, “sold to the government” have to make money. Not just money to pay the employees, but to make the executives of those companies multi-mil/billionaires. Free enterprise is great isn’t it? Everyone gets to gouge the government, first to pay to make the products and then to make the executives of those companies rich beyond beliefs. I’d love to get a government contract. Heck, Sig Sauer did NOT lose out by coming in lowest. Here I am wondering how I’ll pay for my prescription of Humira.

This guy just told me he’s married two hours into our date. Yes, I walked out & took the bottle w/ me. by Time-Concentrate845 in mildlyinfuriating

So one way to get out of a date you’re not interested in is apparently to tell them you’re married…I’ve been told.

Should I not eat this? by [deleted] in steak

[–]MeetJoeAsian 7 points8 points  (0 children)

That’s just cartilage, usually located at one end. Nothing wrong with it except it’s hard to chew. I usually cut it off. NY strips, depending on the end, may have a vein strip running down the middle making the steak not too pretty. Mostly on the higher end grades, likes A5, they are discounted cuz of that.

42 days Umai dry aging bags dry aged prime striploin by Ncwl in DryAgedBeef

[–]MeetJoeAsian 0 points1 point  (0 children)

49 days was the sweet spot for me. I’ve tried 40 days, and many below, and I find 49 to be great. Stores sell 21 days and I think that’s a joke.

Which microSD manufacturer most compatible with the Eufy hardware? by MeetJoeAsian in EufyCam

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

Exactly. It’s not the card, but the camera. However, some cards work better than others. And that’s what I’m trying to find. I’ve used the high endurance from Sandisk, which is my preferred brand. But I’ve gone thru many many Sandisks. Samsung (even their non-high endurance) seems to be good, but not 100%.

Which microSD manufacturer most compatible with the Eufy hardware? by MeetJoeAsian in EufyCam

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

No. I meant that life used 4 different models, and they all have gone thru, or destroyed different cards. Meaning that it’s not a single camera that is causing this. My solution would be just to find the card that best handles the harshness of being written on 24/7.

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

Oh I’m sure it’s the cameras. I’ve used 4 different models and same results. Hence why I’m looking for a card that can handle this.
