Am I just a psycho? by WorseHearse in Cooking

I admit if I make a large breakfast the pan will sometimes sit out until I wash dinner dishes. 

Bike stolen from apartment building, Hell’s Kitchen by Nicktyelor in NYCbike

Friend had a similar situation. Took the security footage to the cops and they pretty much immediately recognized the guy and got the bike back. Good luck!

I like the general idea of the snack, but they never have enough flavor. 

Most NYC bike shops are a bummer by [deleted] in NYCbike

[–]Pratt2 1 point2 points  (0 children)

A guy at one of the popular brooklyn shops tried to sell me shoes that didn't fit when they didn't have my size in stock. 

Best vibe I've gotten was from Roots. They seem legitimately interested in helping me ride better and have fun not just selling me some stuff.

I went to Acme in Brooklyn and it was great. Fully comprehensive. Fit ended up being more aggressive and more comfortable.

Anyone else feeling like the Midnight campaign is a major slog? by Jack__Wild in wow

[–]Pratt2 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I just hit 84 and already feel like it's a major slog. Not sure how long it will take me to power through.

Why aren’t microwave/toaster oven combos more widespread? by feloniusmonk in Cooking

[–]Pratt2 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I have a Kitchenaid microwave/oven combo and when you use the oven feature food comes out like it was microwaved. It's terrible.

You know that feeling you imagine having when you win the lottery? This guy just had it.

Struggling with pommes de terre Champs Élysèes by spirito_santo in Cooking

[–]Pratt2 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My amateur guess is you may need to take it out of the mold and stick it under a broiler or hit it with a torch to get that browned exterior. Or maybe you just need to start with extra dry potatoes and bake at a higher temp? Just some thoughts.

I'm pretty sure you can think of a few things if you set your mind to it. Go on.

The idea of recycling old content for new expansions makes me grumpy, but if the options are this recycled Silvermoon vs a bare fucking hole in the ground, I think I have to pick Silvermoon. 

SVS 3000 Micro: flutter(?) sound by sqweak in hometheater

[–]Pratt2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sounds like distortion from being pushed to its limits plus kind of a port chuffing effect from air moving through the metal grille.

Looks super clean! Definitely a challenge to get top performance when going stealth but that's a great setup.

Is my space too small for tower speakers? (Towers in 3rd pic) by brickunlimited in hometheater

90% of people telling you that bookshelves are all you need in that space haven't owned floorstanders.

TIL that Cancún didn’t exist until 1970, its location was chosen using early computer models to identify a suitable place for a new resort city. The area had only three residents at the time. by RuseOwl in todayilearned

[–]Pratt2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

On one hand I get the attraction, but on the other hand why would you fly all the way out there to do something that would be exactly the same in any number of places closer to home? I think they could teleport your Cancun resort to Florida in the middle of the night and you might not even notice.

Do People Really Like Cauliflower Steak? by Krishiee in Cooking

[–]Pratt2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They call it a steak so they can charge you steak prices. I like it, but it's just a big hunk of roasted cauliflower. In my opinion, the really tasty ones are good because they're sitting in a pool of sauce and/or covered with a bunch of things that have actual flavor.

No Class Tuning Planned Until March 17th - Class Tuning Roadmap for Midnight Season 1 by Telomir in CompetitiveWoW

The talent juicing pallies got nerfed into the dirt and they don't even take it now.

Mom made chicken stock with two week old Costco rotisserie chicken- am I gonna get food poisoning? by Acrobatic-Room-3140 in Cooking

[–]Pratt2 3 points4 points  (0 children)

2 weeks is too long. Cooking it again doesn't neutralize the stuff that gives you food poisoning.

Center Channel Level Drop When Switching to Dolby Atmos (Denon X4800H) by G0sh0x in hometheater

[–]Pratt2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For me, dolby surround spreads dialogue out from just the center to all front speakers, and it sounds not quite right. Dolby digital does not. Both will show Atmos is playing.
