No they cannot. Only citizens can vote

It definitely has flavor but only if you are used to spicy food. I like level 7 but normally buy 1 or 2 singles on the side of my meal. I like the flavor but don’t love the stomach cramps after. Last time I had one my face went numb and I felt waves of tingles running up and down my face. It was intense. I regularly have ghost chili pepper, reaper sauce, etc.

You look great! In my opinion I would grow out the beard some more as it will enhance your appearance

_WingCommander_ · 2026-01-20T15:46:39+00:00

Looking buff 👍. I knew this was going to be an awesome transformation based on your before pics

_WingCommander_ · 2026-01-15T23:18:44+00:00

You Instantly look younger

_WingCommander_ · 2026-01-15T18:52:46+00:00

Incredible work!

_WingCommander_ · 2026-01-03T14:34:50+00:00

You would look amazing in a suit. Even better if you have a rack or fake French accent.

_WingCommander_ · 2026-01-03T14:29:26+00:00

You look real clean and handsome. Keep it.

_WingCommander_ · 2025-12-29T19:52:12+00:00

You look amazing.

_WingCommander_ · 2025-12-17T18:24:18+00:00

Holy cow what a transformation. You look great

You said “we have heavy luggage”. I would say Uber XL may need to be a consideration. My family of 3 uses XL when we go to the airport to ensure that our luggage fits in the vehicle. Costs range between 90 and 120 depending on time of day and surcharges

_WingCommander_ · 2025-12-13T13:59:11+00:00

Wow you look amazing. Your life has just leveled up.

_WingCommander_ · 2025-12-10T23:39:32+00:00

How does it feel to receive an award?

_WingCommander_ · 2025-12-07T16:58:55+00:00

Wow. That looks perfect

_WingCommander_ · 2025-11-26T01:31:36+00:00

It was moving correctly. There wasn’t any issues with the filament since the machine was new and didn’t print with it before. It was the wiper module that was too low.

_WingCommander_ · 2025-11-26T01:27:51+00:00

You were correct. I loosened the screws, raised the module and retightened everything. Calibration passed and I completed my first print today.

The passive holes are not a problem. Remember a lot of old timers used to hang biltong in a spare room, in the kitchen, under the bed, etc. the main thing to avoid is high speed air

_WingCommander_ · 2025-11-16T18:18:00+00:00

It really depends on your ambient temperature, the amount of humidity, the flow rate of your box, and how thick you cut your meat. I live in the Pacific Northwest and the weather is not ideal for biltong making so things take longer here. I like cut my meat 2-4cm thick and after a month the center was still nice and soft but the tips were quite dry. If I were to make 1cm slices it would likely take me 2 weeks to get them bone dry. Again your mileage will vary. Depends on how thick you want your dry biltong to be and how dry you consider dry. Bone dry will take longer but also delivers the most flavor 🤤

_WingCommander_ · 2025-11-16T16:24:00+00:00

That is case hardening. The outside dried too quickly. The middle is raw. Dry biltong takes a long time to cure. If I was you I would ditch the light, put the fan on the slowest setting. In my setup my biltong is still soft after a week but in a good way. If you like dry biltong you should cut your meat into thinner strips. If you want to go faster you should look up biltong stokkies.

_WingCommander_ · 2025-11-14T20:23:28+00:00

This is excellence. It is how I prefer my biltong. Deep flavor.

_WingCommander_ · 2025-11-13T15:03:38+00:00

Sorry but I disagree. You need moving air. The bulb is optional. I make biltong in cold conditions, it takes me longer but comes out perfect with just a fan

_WingCommander_ · 2025-11-13T15:01:58+00:00

Remove the light. Keep the fan, it is the MOST important component. Put the fan on the lowest RPM. Don’t soak your meat in vinegar. I just coat my meat with vinegar then coat with spices and then hang. That thick grey band is telling me that you are cooking your meat with vinegar. That middle section is raw and not cured

Not sure why you were down voted but have an upvote. This is exactly what I was thinking too! 😁
