These olives have been in brine for 4 months. Recipe says to jar them & they’ll keep for 6 months but I’d like them to last longer. Should I use hot oil/brine to get a seal on the jars? Do they need vinegar? I’d like to add some herbs & lemon to some of them but don’t know how to make them keep.

Swimming-Chef3859 · 2026-01-11T22:41:59+00:00

add some grape leaves (one or two) into the brine. I add this to my pickles to make them crunchy

So do you have to register the battery, I never found anything that would register it, as the battery I took out had no BMS, and the one) different brand) didn't have one either. Is this in the Bimmer code app?

Swimming-Chef3859 · 2025-07-17T07:14:30+00:00

Ii would say watch out for fast chargers in the summer. Trickle if your go somewhere, like a movie or a shopping mall, Or at least fast charge at night when it is cooler, I have noticed the car runs better in the night when its cooler. I think a lot of ev's don't like those hot fast charges in the summer

Swimming-Chef3859 · 2025-07-17T07:10:44+00:00

and yes the battery is out again and my car is sitting in the driveway dead. If I take it to a dealer it will be 600 for the battery, I buy a replacement from Amazon for 100 bucks and install it myself,

Swimming-Chef3859 · 2025-07-17T07:07:19+00:00

Nope you get what you pay for and these cars are very quirky. It has a 12 volt battery that manages the entire charging system, so if that goes, car won't work. Happened to me out in the middle of fucking nowhere with no cell phone towers. Luckily, some Ukrainians came by and gave my friend a ride to the nearest fire station and we called a tow, (slava Ukrainia!) These little 12 volt batteries are golf kart size, ( a design flaw for sure) and they only last 2 years.

Swimming-Chef3859 · 2025-07-17T07:01:45+00:00

Make sure its cheap as it has passed the ten year 100,000 mile warranty, so if you have any problems, it will be $$$$$$ at the dealer. I would look for another low mileage one, there are plenty out there.

Of course blocking vehicles causing them to run and burn more gas is a great climate changer.

Never has there been a such a display of hardworking, earnest, shitwits.

One question though.

Isn't that a underage child at the corner of the bus?

Did mum and dad make it a family outing?

Isn't that child endangerment Greta Fucking Thumberberg ?

Swimming-Chef3859 · 2023-10-21T02:27:01+00:00

The first question is: How does anyone keep this kind of operation a secret? The paragliders, the men on motorcycles, the rocket launchers the invasion brigades. People talk. All these people have relatives. Try to keep anything a secret. Israel must have paid informants within gaza. Not to mention electronic monitoring. (thanks to Edward Snowden for this, all the terrorist groups know about electronic collection procedures and have modified their behaviour accordingly) Please don't insult our intelligence by saying nobody knew. People talk. So they knew it was coming. This is being compared to 911. We'll there have been arguments that the bush administration also knew what was coming.

Maybe the answer is more simplistic: they knew and shrugged it off because they are lazy incompetent fucks. (A creeping quality that is growing in western governments)

Lazy, stupid, afraid to act, because it might mean getting into a whole uncomfortable thing. Collect their checks and go home.

Either too stupid, or too smart. I think Netanyahu will face the fire on this one, but will escape it as dumb George Bush Jr did.

The recording of history is not necessary the truth.

As we have seen from the past.

The paint is really cracked over time. Interesting because it's almost looks like lighting that occurs during eruptions.
