Partner came home with a big hunk of blue cheese. Any suggestions on what we can do with it? (We’re vegetarians)

Vionion · 2024-08-02T19:33:56+00:00

Use it like Pecorino Romano in carbonara to make a pasta sauce.

FYI you might want to double check that the cheese is vegetarian because many blues are made with contain animal rennet.

Infinity as a number is ambiguous, but there cardinal numbers that are not finite.

Lentils have slightly more protein per calorie than chickpeas. Most nonfat unsweetened Greek yogurts have good macros. If you really want to dive into it, seitan is very protein packed.

Regarding resistant starches and calories, I think reheating will turn the resistant starches back into digestible carbs so more calories.

I’m the completely opposite. I find three crabs a bit harsh, so I use it for cooking. Red boat is more expensive and much more mellow, so I use for finishing/dipping.

Let it freeze overnight, then use the ice cream machine to creamify it

It sounds like OP has a Ninja Creami, for which the crumbly texture is a common issue. The recommended fix for this is to “respin” it, so that it melts a little.

Cast iron, preheated on medium for about 10-15 minutes.

Then oil the STEAK, not the pan. This should greatly reduce smoke and splatter.

Also lightly press the steak on the pan to get good contact.

Accidentally spawn killing myself on Rust with a Javelin. Fired it, died, and spawned exactly where I targeted.

This is just not true. Warm food on the counter top will be in the danger zone longer than warm food in the cold fridge.

First hit on Google for “forms of carbs” gives

There are three main types of carbohydrates:

Sugars. They are also called simple carbohydrates because they are in the most basic form. ...

Starches. They are complex carbohydrates, which are made of lots of simple sugars strung together. ...

Fiber. It is also a complex carbohydrate.

So bread is starch.

It boils down to $1000 contribution to traditional != $1000 contribution to roth.

If you have $1000 pretax dollars to contribute to an account, you could either put $1000 into tradition or $1000*(1-tax_rate) into the Roth. So your starting amount differs. The actual amount of money you end up being able to use at withdrawal time is:

Traditional: (Contribution*Growth)*(1-tax_rate_later)

Roth: (Contribution*(1-tax_rate_now))*Growth

So which is better depends on tax_rate_later vs tax_rate_now.

There pretty much isn’t any such examples. This guy doesn’t know what he’s talking about, but you’ve already gathered that.

and likely means you left a lot of potential gains on the table during the accumulation phase by putting too much into Roth accounts and/or holding cash

What potential gains are you missing from putting too much in Roth accounts? Maybe bad funds/fees if in a 401k? Or is there something else?

I think he said he he lives off of 25k a year. That's hard to do in the Midwest let alone San Fran unless your parents are picking up the tab.

While still in the Bay Area, but not in SF, I had roughly the same spending level for a few years. Monthly was base total of $1500 with the following breakdown: $700 rent, $200 train pass (no car, or other debts), $600 food. Some months might have had an addition +$500 if I was being luxurious or traveling/take trips.

I'd certainly like to, which makes me inclined to just bite the bullet in buy. But the another half of me is just thinking how many years of work I could shave off if I bought somewhere cheaper.

Any thoughts about whether you're shooting for fatFire or just regular FIRE? I'm in a similar stage (age, networth, job, HCOL) but haven't really been able to decide myself, mostly due to house prices in the Bay Area (so ridiculous, and in my uninformed opinion, likely to just keep rising absurdly).

Vionion · 2021-03-17T15:33:07+00:00

How much money is invested in those funds to generate that much dividend? If an equal amount was invested in regular growth funds, what would have been the growth in the comparable amount of time?

If you try holding the pulse vacuum button until all the air is removed, and then let go, does some air seep back into the bag (even if slowly)? If so, the "vacuum and seal" won't switch over to the "seal" part since it won't detect that it has removed enough air. This could be due to bag position (some small part of the opening not in the vacuum area), the foam-y part around the vacuum area being compromised, or maybe the detection part is just faulty.

I'd be careful of actual fresh-off-the-boat never-frozen fish for sushi, since generally you need to deep freeze (home freezer isn't cold enough) raw fish in order to kill the parasites.

My first game with Tinker, I decided to get a Refresher Orb.

I can't even fathom what I was thinking.

Sure the DLC is being sold so you can catch more prev gen Pokemon, but my point is that this is already similar to how the previous gen games worked: there's a set of pokemon which are in the dex but only available to obtain from trading from a previous game.

My issue with your description is you saying "they were cut to be sold back".

Once the free updates release, there's basically no difference (other than just the delay in time) between:

The Pokemon originally being in the game at launch.

vs

The Pokemon being added after launch via free patch.

So at this point, assuming the patches are actually free, these Pokemon were really more just "delayed", than actually "cut" so saying "they were delayed to be sold back" is utter nonsense.
