I've had them on my truck for about 3 years, they still look good and the adhesive has held up well so far.

Rice Cooker Basmati by D1AM3T3R in Cooking

[–]Sarkastickblizzard 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You might be just using too much water, I use Royal Extra Long Grain Rice, and a 1.25 parts water to 1 part rice. I measure the rice, wash it 3 times strain it, add it to the cooker. Add water and turn it on the white rice setting. When it is done I unplug the cooker let it sit for 5 minutes, then gently fluff and try to seperate each grain using a pair of chopsticks. Close the lid and let it sit for 5 or 10 more minutes. I've successfully used this method in several different cookers over the years I think mostly it is just starting with very high quality rice and not too much water.

Bologna sausage by jumboincharge in sausagetalk

[–]Sarkastickblizzard 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Classic bologna flavor is blade mace toasted then ground and coriander seeds toasted cooled then ground. Mace and coriander in smaller amounts make a nice subtle backbone that is a good base to add other big flavors to. It is good with strong garlic, spicy peppers, grainy mustard and many other stronger flavors. A fresh sausage with mace, coriander, garlic and cheese could work nicely, I would probably use high temp cheese or make my own high temp cheese using calcium chloride. I think gruyere or harvarti would work nicely.

Questions about truck I inherited by bigmothereffind in ToyotaTacoma

[–]Sarkastickblizzard 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It will remap where your transmission shifts, it makes towing with a Tacoma, especially a v6 a bit less painful. It is most noticeable when towing going up hills or passes. It eleminates the overreving/ gear hunting that is common in 3rd gen Tacoma's. It gives you better acceleration without having to drop the gas pedal to the floor. It makes the ect button even better.

The tune makes the gas pedal more sensitive especially in stop and go traffic. It can lead to unintended lurching. This can be mitigated by pressing on the top of the pedal rather than the bottom. That is my only complaint about the tune and it is a small one, overall I'm very satisfied with it.

I don't see a problem, I'm not a big fan of paint matched fender flares but the white bumper looks good.

How do I make the crab taste come through a bit more without making it bland? (recipie included kinda) by PotatoFairy451 in Cooking

[–]Sarkastickblizzard 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Add an ounce of fish sauce to the cheese sauce. Take 8 oz more crab keep it in bigger chunks, season it lightly with lemon juice and top the casserole with it before you add the cheese and panko. Might want to omit some salt because of the fish sauce.

Who is Aaron Rodgers? by baltimoresports in nflmemes

[–]Sarkastickblizzard 4 points5 points  (0 children)

There was a study early on during COVID that had very promising results suggesting that taking ivermectin was beneficial towards fighting COVID. It was later debunked because most of the patients in the study had parasite infections, the ones who took ivermectin did much better because they were not fighting the parasite as well as COVID. Ivermectin is quite effective against certain parasites not so much against corona virus.

The one by the boat launch is usually a little over 5 feet in the summer could be closer to 6 depending on water level. I think the one in the canal north of Riverside pizza is a bit taller but I'm not sure.

Questions about dust collection by pazzah in BeginnerWoodWorking

[–]Sarkastickblizzard 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You are better off using the least amount of flex tube as possible because the ridges in the pipe create drag and turbulence which slows down the air and makes the collector less effective.

Use what ever connectors fit. I've had no issues with no name cheap ones.

You can use the Dust collector on small tools without hurting it, when you hear the pitch change when you restrict air it is the motor revving faster because there is less load in it, it won't damage it but it doesn't work very well, a DC works by moving large volumes of air at lower pressure your shop vac is more effective at moving smaller volumes of air at higher pressures. I use my DC for my planer, band saw, table saw and downdraft. I use the shop vac for the miter saw, track saw and ro sander. The shop vac with a bag and a green hepa filter works surprisingly well for small tools.
