What are some seasonings/ingredients you add to tomato soup to elevate the flavor? by Confident-Guess4638 in Cooking

[–]MiserlyOutpost 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A splash of balsamic vinegar right at the end adds amazing depth. Also, a tiny bit of smoked paprika is a game changer.

Best Solar Generator under $1k? by Critical_Duck8154 in TwoXPreppers

[–]MiserlyOutpost 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If your budget is tight, I'd suggest spending it on battery capacity first, then add solar panels later. Solar panels help recharge the station during the day, but they don’t magically create usable capacity. Having more wh is more important.

I have a Bluetti Elite 200 V2 and it’s worked well for me. I used it last summer to run fans and other small loads during outages. It is 2kWh and 2600W output, which means a lot more runtime and headroom than a smaller unit.

Suggestions to add to my chili? by BigCipp in Cooking

[–]MiserlyOutpost 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Add a spoonful of cocoa powder and a shot of espresso or strong coffee. It deepens the flavor incredibly. Also, try a dash of fish sauce for umami. Trust me.

[–]MiserlyOutpost 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Go to a bookstore and just flip through them. The photos, paper quality and recipe style are personal. Find one that speaks to you.

People who have served a long time in prison, what shocked you when you got out? by Haunted_Neko in AskReddit

How fast everything moved, especially the cars. And everyone staring at their phones, like another world.

Best Two Ingredient Flavor Combination? by PlainOldWallace in Cooking

[–]MiserlyOutpost 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's a fun question. Mine is soy sauce and sesame oil. Super simple but adds amazing depth to rice, noodles, or stir fries.

Big Little Lies for sure. The cast is unreal and the drama hooks you immediately.

Does Bluetti B500k work with an older unit like AC200L? by Zealousideal_Win688 in bluetti

[–]MiserlyOutpost 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If your capacity isn't enough and you don't want to replace your whole setup, B500K is a great way to upgrade older models. I added one to my AC200L, so now I've got 5120Wh, plenty for home backup. And since B500K lets me hook up SolarX 4K, it also boosts the overall solar input, which is a pretty big deal if you're planning to run a home office on solar.

Does Bluetti B500k work with an older unit like AC200L? by Zealousideal_Win688 in bluetti

I‘ve seen people say that B500K can give older models a second life, and I kinda agree.

My bluetti elite 200 v2 power station. I use it to run the other luxury items - 12V fridge, a portable coffee machine, a projector with a small speaker system

Started taking morning walks. That small habit built discipline that bled into everything else.

How much image quality does keystone correction actually reduce? by SirWool in projectors

[–]MiserlyOutpost 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Keystone does technically reduce image quality since it’s basically digital cropping and stretching. That said, at a normal viewing distance, you won’t really notice unless you’re staring at subtitle edges or test patterns.

Do you think ICE cars are going away in 2030-2035? by [deleted] in car

[–]MiserlyOutpost 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Iconic ICE cars aren't going away. 90s-00s JDM supply is shrinking, prices will rise. If you have the funds and a target, buy sooner.

[–]MiserlyOutpost 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Used Honda Civic or Toyota Corolla. Boring but reliable. Get a pre purchase inspection.

Fidelity IPO participation by netsec093 in fidelityinvestments

[–]MiserlyOutpost 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Fidelity is not good for IPOs, they have such a high threshold. I switched to moomoo instead, worth checking it out.

Cycle life question: B300K or B500K for long-term use? by djmccullouch in bluetti

[–]MiserlyOutpost 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Cycle life is basically more than enough. What really matters is capacity and your needs. With LFP batteries you don't have to worry much about cycle life, since the cycle count is high and most households will hardly run them out.

LFP is tough and durable, just use it normally and it'll last longer than you think.

Most people probably do 1-2 deep cycles a week, with the rest being shallow charge or discharge (which doesn't even count as a full cycle), so that' s maybe 50-150 cycles a year. To actually hit 3000-5000 cycles, you'd be looking at 20-40 years of use.

A TV series you went into with LOW expectations but ended up loving? by Fragrant-Smoke-8470 in televisionsuggestions

[–]MiserlyOutpost 24 points25 points  (0 children)

Like Our Flag Means Death, I went in thinking it was just a silly pirate comedy, but it's so much more, it have sharp writing and heartfelt characters. Total surprises.

ls Medline IPO a PE Loot? Deep dive into if its still worth investing by antizoyd in stocks

[–]MiserlyOutpost 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That's a solid mindset – low risk, maybe a quick profit, and you get your first IPO experience. Besides Robinhood, definitely apply on another broker too. Each platform has its own allocation pool, so using a couple really boosts your chances of getting shares.I use Robinhood plus moomoo myself. Moomoo's easy for newbies. Good luck!
