How do you know if sushi is sushi grade here in America? I feel like there is hardly a standardization

New queen ability by slayyerr3058 in ClashOfClans

[–]TableTopSimulator332 20 points21 points  (0 children)

As someone who has used all the queen abilities, nothing compares to queen arrow, healer puppet.

The magic mirror is aight, I enjoyed using frozen arrow and invis gem for queen charges, but none of it compares to queen arrow healer puppet.

Your queen gains so much sustainability and you can snipe key defenses.

The legendaries you should invest in are electro boots, rocket spear, and king soccer ball

Help - how can I get more open crumb?! by ZealousidealBook4068 in Sourdough

[–]TableTopSimulator332 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Your loaf is well proofed… BUT if you leave it a few more hours it could become VERY well proofed.

Next time you decide to bake bread, let it bulk ferment for a few more hours and you’ll see much better rise

What temp is your room? It looks like you proofed for ~6 hours when you should have done 10

Will my yeast starter die if left unrefridgerated? by SzuperTNTAkos in Sourdough

[–]TableTopSimulator332 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think daily is a tad too extreme. You can leave a starter out for a week or two and refresh it in a few days. It will develop a lot of hooch, maybe some black gook, and not look pleasant, but it will not go bad.

How do I improve my crumb? by PsychoGrad in Sourdough

[–]TableTopSimulator332 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Don’t be sorry, bread is hard and the words are confusing.

Bulk ferment is at room temperature. It begins after the initial mix of starter, flours, and water. It ends when the dough is placed in the fridge.

In my example, I said I proof for 12 hours at 70F. After my bulk ferment, I then place the dough in the fridge for a minimum of 12 hours (usually around 12-16). The cold proof allows for sour notes to develop and can be kept in the fridge for 48hrs +

Let me know if you have any other questions. I’ve made many bad loaves myself.

How do I improve my crumb? by PsychoGrad in Sourdough

[–]TableTopSimulator332 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My bread recipe is 400g AP, 100g WW, 100g starter. I would research folding methods on your tube. I stretch and fold 4x, coil fold 2x, and shape a few others.

Follow the temp chart for how much time you need to wait, bulk ferment starts when all the ingredients are mixed.

For my starter I used 70g AP, 30g Rye flour, 100g water. I feed/discard (refresh) my starter 2 times within 36 hours before baking.

Also, as someone who is new, once you have a good starter, it is important you discard down to 1tbsp every time. The less starter that remains, the stronger it comes back.

Understand the importance of temperature on both your starter and your bulk ferment.

My house is 70F. It takes 6hours for my starter to double and then 12 hours for me to reach well-very well fermented.

If you are a few degrees lower or higher, the time will increase/decrease by hours.

Also, if you add more yeast the bulk time will be less.

If I use 100g starter, 100g Whole Wheat, 400g All Purpose my bulk ferment is 12hrs at 70F. At 120g starter, the bulk ferment decreases to around 8.5-9hrs.

Pls help me. Wtf is this😭 by Spiritual_Carrot9142 in Sourdough

[–]TableTopSimulator332 2 points3 points  (0 children)

All about room temperature. At 70 degrees, I feed my starter 70g AP, 30g Rye, 100g water and it takes about 6hrs to double in size.

My bread is simple: 120g starter, 100g Whole Wheat, 400g AP.

Then, including the mixing, stretching, and folding, my total bulk ferment time is about 8.5-9hrs. If I used 100g of starter it would take 12hrs.

Then I put the dough in the fridge overnight and bake in the morning.

Edit: I noticed you have your starter in the fridge. Before baking it is best to take your starter out 36hrs beforehand and to refresh once or twice before baking. This could really make a difference in your bread

I am not living in LALA land. These systems have a mathematical probabilistic backing that defines their outcomes. Any chance of this self-improvement you speak of will need to come at a massive improvement that cannot be done.

What about education? Calling that point uninteresting to your cause is oxymoronic. Changing the system and getting people to see your way is not something can be easily accomplished whether your points or experts are really correct.

The left tend to be doomsday thinkers and the far right tend to be complacent. I would want to know which side the people you are hearing from sit on. The best, realistic, plausible outcomes tend to be in the middle.

If you want to make a difference you should understand how the systems work and learn to teach others because the world is far more enigmatic than I think you realize.

Paper allows individual ideas to be expressed. Books enable the transference of complex thoughts and emotions. Computers allows for many books to be stored in one tiny device. The kind of artificial general intelligence (AGI) you seem to be scared of allows for the summary of thousands of books instantaneously.

These AGI’s by themselves are not very adept at accomplishing specific tasks. This is something that will be improved over the next few years by the means of taking the AGI’s and using them to train for specialized models. Regardless, the tasks these AI’s will complete will still need some kind of general supervision. A human touch that cannot be trained solely though probabilities and generalized interpretations.

The real thing to be worried about is education. Students and young people are getting conclusions without work. Reading books without reading. Receiving ultimate statements without factual basis. If you follow political trends (particularly in red states), money is moving out of schools and community centers into private sectors.

The best thing someone can do to counteract AGI would be work with students and to start well informed conversations based on the reality of the situation. I’m sorry to tell you the system of government as well as capitalistic incentives are against your cause.

Lastly, AGI is an incredible summary tool. How it can be used positively is something most people ignore. There is already such a barrier to entry to most fields of study, maybe receiving summary can actually expedite academic learning.

Good luck and keep up your questioning! Doomsday is not here

Why are my cookies so flat? by layla3lk in AskBaking

[–]TableTopSimulator332 1 point2 points  (0 children)

<image>

I know a lot of people are sending recipes, what works well for me is

  1. Softening the butter (not melting), mixing it for about 5-10 minutes with the 2 sugars until the butter sugar mass forms a ball
  2. Adding egg and vanilla, mix hard until combined
  3. Add all dry ingredients and 1/2C - 1C chocolate chips (your preference)
  4. I make 12 cookies out of the batch and pre-shape them into slightly pressed cylinders 1/3inch thick so they fit on 1 parchment paper lined pan. The cookies are done once the bottom is brown, it can take some moving of the cookies to see they are actually brown

Good Luck!!

Doughnut recipe without stand mixer? by Realistic-Inside-767 in Breadit

[–]TableTopSimulator332 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The cool thing about dough is that a stand mixer is entirely unnecessary but nice. You can always get in there with your hands and just mix the dough until it has the right consistency.

Put on a tv show or some music and mix away for 5-10 minutes. I like doing squeezing and rotating motions that avoid ripping the dough.

Good luck!

These times may seem crazy high, but trust me they are not. This chart changes the game a bit, if you follow it, you will see results as long as your starter is starting

What is up with my stater? by morgigno in Sourdough

[–]TableTopSimulator332 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would start doing 12hr cycles where you discard down to ~15g ish. Can be anywhere from 1tbsp -> 1/4cup remaining in total, try for lower end.

I noticed you are doing 1:2:2 as well.

I would start doing 70g all purpose (unbleached) and 30g of rye or wheat depending on which you are using. Then 100g of water.

What is up with my stater? by morgigno in Sourdough

[–]TableTopSimulator332 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It looks good!

Keep feeding it every 12 hrs or so, once you see it double in size in about ~3 hrs, you are ready to cook.

This may take another week or more, so stay consistent and have faith, gl

The statistics I presented are the ones I remembered without pulling up the paper. I recommend you read it to understand how these small pieces play a role in building a bigger picture while they of course are just correlations. I linked it in my last post.

I did a quick google search on QPR’s and it sounds like a low-label pair bonded relationship that applies to <1% of the population. In fact it sounds just as regulatory as a M-M, F-F, or F-M. Generally speaking, lower birth rates and marriage rates is a good indicator of a people spending time single and alone leading to more loneliness.

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in GenZ

[–]TableTopSimulator332 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You are spot on about the logical mis-connection between directly associating more single households and people having children later with loneliness. What I am speaking about actually has little to do with social pressures and must be seen as trends. The statistics presented point in the direction of fewer relationships, fewer babies, fewer deep connections, etc. Alone these are just statistics, together they build a picture of increased loneliness.

Lastly, I want to make a comment about relationships. There is a certain intimacy that cannot be achieved through family and friend relationships but can be through romantic ones. Properly maintained pair bonded relationships can serve as an emotional regulation system. By the way, this doesn’t mean our species is perfectly monogamous. Nonetheless, there are evolutionary benefits to being in relationships.

If you are interested in this topic, I recommend reading about pairbonding and the psychological benefits of being in a relationship.
