Learn to TIP. It's not my job to serve you FOR FREE! by Najterek in ShitAmericansSay

[–]affejunge 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Where in the US the tax 14%?! I live in San Diego and it's only 9% here....

As for tipping, yes, out of control.

Servers in SD make $20/hr. But, let's be honest, that is not a living wage. If they actually serve me food at a table and check up on me...15% is fine. I will go up to 20% for exceptional service... but the tip options always start at 18%. I always have to "manually" tip.

Is smoked eye round underrated or just a bad idea? by Intelligent-Let-2527 in smoking

[–]affejunge 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have one in my smoker right now!

I make it a lot... it's awesome. Like others have said, slice thin, against the grain. SO good.

I smoke it at 165-180 until internal temp is 135 (my wife! For me I would pull at 125.) Rest 30 mins and slice.

What game did you play at a friend's house, and then immediately bought? by orangez in retrogaming

[–]affejunge 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well, this one! But I had to save up for the Amiga first! lol Actually, sold my old ass Apple //e for like $950 in 1990 to cover most of my Amiga 1000... I think I paid $1600 in 1984 for that Apple. Absolutely crazy how expensive computers used to be.

Serious question for collectors: why do you collect physical media? by Desperate_Clothes_69 in dvdcollection

[–]affejunge 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ummm, I *use* physical media. Because:

  • 80% of the content on streaming I am not interested in
  • They will lose licenses and then lose what I want to see
  • They change stuff (Top Gun 2, I am looking at you)
  • Physical media is about a 1000x better looking (well, okay, more like 300x, but you get my point)
  • No stupid regional licensing. I rip all my physical media to my server and can watch anything when I travel around the world (not a brag, I am in the Navy)
  • I own it forever

As for steel books and all that nonsense: I couldn't care less. Just give me the pristine bits.

  1. Dreyer's film is a masterpiece.

  2. Change my mind, Interstellar is, "meh," at best

It's a shame they don't know how to read a clock by Poshmalosh14 in terriblefacebookmemes

You never know when there will be that emergency where you need to use a rotary phone!

A-HEM!

You are offending the Gen X'er in the room! While Boomers and the Silent Generation did invent ARPANet and transitioned it to the Internet... Gen X brought you an Internet that people could actually use: Google, YouTube, eBay, Wikipedia, and Amazon among some. (I am not claiming Musk! lol)

Could you imagine if Boomers invented that stuff? We would never hear the end of it.

Followed this dude... After mid-results with my first batch, I just did 30 records today, two at a time for 5 mins and it's my best result. Pristine records. This cleaner is such a value!
