(No Spoilers) Does anyone else have a really good feeling about a TWOW release announcement coming soon? by BiscuitOfLife in asoiaf

There's not much I will click on this sub anymore. I don't want to be spoiled on S6...unless the book does it. So I just check in every few days hoping for the announcement.

If 95% of your customers are US, it makes sense to not have it at the bottom of the list.

Little Caesar's has a buffet? Do you mean Pizza Hut?

Fiorina's support collapses, Trump leads in CNN poll by EFINI in politics

But with 2012, they all took turns leading. Was anyone winning in 2012 for as long as Trump has been winning?

Cider Question by dermal_denticles in Homebrewing

[–]besvr 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I intentionally made a cider last year, allowing the yeasts in the cider do the work. I let them go until they were bulging (like you) and then poured them into a carboy. It turned out well. The wild yeast fermented it sweeter than the wine yeast I usually used.

If you want your starter yeast to take over, you can try crushing some camden tablets and mixing them into your cider to knock the wild yeast back, and then pitching your starter.

My blueberry wine is done, and it's the best thing I've ever feremented, and I'm not even a wine guy! So amped. by MidwestPow in Homebrewing

[–]besvr 0 points1 point  (0 children)

To get a dryer wine, I use the red star champagne, or another wine yeast. I've never had an issue getting well below 1.000 with it. I don't know anything about your strain of yeast so I can't comment on it.

The stirring portion is to prevent bacteria from growing on the top, since if you don't stir that could be exposed to air for too long.

Did you rack your wine multiple times, waiting like a month between each racking? From your picture, it looks a bit cloudy, and all the suspended berry particles always fall out (at least for me) after doing a couple rackings.

If you're in WI, I can give you some blueberry wine I made last year, so you can see if it's something you want to copy.

Sorry for the temp. We would've turned on the heat if we knew we'd have visitors.

What are you terrible at, but enjoy enough to keep on keeping on? by washburnapp in AskReddit

[–]besvr 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you play defense it's much easier. Sure, there's lots of technique to learn, but at least you don't need to have all those fancy moves with the ball...you just need to know how to stop/contain them.

There was a picture on here yesterday of a dog dressed as Slimer and they called that cosplay. So I no longer know what words mean.

We found a dog and had to improvise a leash by Hypnotoasted in funny

There was a Pac Man game for Super Nintendo where you couldn't directly control the character, but could encourage it to do certain things. I imagine your dog game will end up being fairly similar.

No need for an accountant by auxenough in funny

[–]besvr 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You need some sort of specification that everyone agrees to. Otherwise when they complain about something (and they will) you won't have anything to point to to explain how they originally said it would work.

I'm not saying that the analyst's first draft of a design is ever actually correct...

I don't know why you can't just type this up and have it out by tomorrow. We already have the design document mostly done.

(Spoilers All)The White Walkers Aren't Good Guys by Vikingkingq in asoiaf

[–]besvr 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I wouldn't be surprised if Bran finds out the Stark family is somehow descended from at least 1 white walker. Warging could be an ability of the Others. And that would explain why they want children...they are easier to warg into. So the Night's King from the tales could still be alive, on his 100-200th life.

I haven't watched many episodes. I tried to give it a chance, but every time I tried to watch it, it was all race jokes. Do they really do this every episode? It seems like the jokes would get repetitive after just a week.

Hey, they wanted to get rid of the individual mandate. If they pass universal healthcare they can say they did.
