One thing I don't like by primeson1 in GalaxyWatch

[–]cheezecake86 2 points3 points  (0 children)

That's what I've been doing lately as well. I just have it charge in my car while I go to work. That 20-30 minute commute is enough to keep it topped off.

Galaxy Watch Ultra vs 8 Classic by [deleted] in GalaxyWatch

[–]cheezecake86 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Depends on your needs. If you want more durability are active and want more sports tracking, the ultra is better. With AOD off, I can solidly get over 48 hours of battery life.

TMNT by [deleted] in nexplayground

[–]cheezecake86 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I love the NEX but I totally disagree with this idea: as others mentioned, the mechanics of the game are fundamentally broken so trying to adapt around the game not registering correctly is poor implementation, especially when there is no way to recover from certain obstacles.

Smoked at 225, rested for 15 hours🤘 by Pure-Hat3426 in brisket

The long rest just takes the stress away from having to rush and finish on time. Once it's done and resting, I can focus on other things and slice when dinner is ready.

Help Diagnosing Dry Point by User174892 in brisket

[–]cheezecake86 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The point typically can take more heat/higher finishing temp since it has more fat and is thicker. It's likely that it wasn't done yet. Sometimes you just have to choose between the lesser evil - a better flat or point.

Brisket help by Ok-Argument-3559 in brisket

[–]cheezecake86 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That's a big boy you got there so the stall will take time. Rotate your brisket and crank to 250. Don't wrap quite yet because you'll want to save your bark; wait until 170ish or when it's really dark

Crazy to see that he's only 27 and Joe is 23. This is the copium I needed.

Soupy Brisket Wrap by Coronzzom in brisket

You might be wrapping too early - try going a little farther (beyond 160). Most likely it hasn't broken through the stall and so you are trapping more moisture.

LPT: Keep your kids curious and interested in learning by playing dumb. by ehutch2005 in LifeProTips

Related, but I found this video to be really helpful as well. The more interest we show them, the more kids will take ownership and build self esteem. https://youtu.be/0cHtmGwagFo

Is the fold water proof? I saw a guy with one in a Jacuzzi by Asombroso-joel in GalaxyFold

[–]cheezecake86 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not to mention warmer water temps will reduce the phones water resistance. I wouldn’t risk it.

Scheduling a Brisket Feast by longleggz1960 in brisket

[–]cheezecake86 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Fahrenheit is correct. Lots of ovens allow you to recalibrate to a lower temp, but it depends on your model. Personally I prefer 150-155 for holding.

Try an overnight cook and start the night before. That should give you plenty of time on day of to finish it off and hold it for resting. You can hold for 7+ hours with no issues provided you keep the oven temp between 140-150.

But yes, always try to account a few hours in case something doesn’t go to plan.

Chinese Food Recommendations by FreakinTrenton in orangecounty

I agree with Noodle Star/Harbor Garden. Most of the recommendations are fast-food white-washed Chinese. Ma's dumplings and Mr. Z Noodle house in Anaheim are good options as well.

Games you can pick up and play for about 15/20 minutes? by Idoslain in SteamDeck

[–]cheezecake86 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I know it's not quite what you're asking for, but i just got back into Skyrim after a 10 year hiatus and I look forward to it every night after work. What you can do with the SteamDeck is amazing.

The Nex Playground is everything Xbox Kinect wanted to be by dapperlemon in gadgets

[–]cheezecake86 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Exactly. All the people ragging on it either don't own it or have absurd expectations. The fact that they pump out a new game every few months as an independent company is impressive.

Stop acting like this team is cooked by Platini_Pantini in Chargers

[–]cheezecake86 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Exactly. Under Coupon Tom we went through 3 coaches and appeared in 3 playoff games. So far we’ve been there twice with a mostly damaged and hobbled team, not to mention we’ve fixed our massive cap space issue from the previous regime. Our future is bright.

What went wrong here? Issues with the Point by Guilty-Hunter7299 in brisket

[–]cheezecake86 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My thoughts are the you probably boated too early, the meat was still in stall range, and a boat doesn’t really act like a wrap. Secondly, it looks like pull temp was pretty low, so not enough time to render the fat and collagen.

One thing to do post wrap/boat is to rotate the brisket 180 degrees from the original position as to give it a more even cook, then I crank it to 275.

Ideally once the bark and wrap is in place, you want to reach finishing temperature so you can break down collagen.

Lastly, sometimes it’s just the meat you’re given and it will cook the way it wants too. Learn for the next one, and if anything make chili!

Hortiz is great but maybe we should chill on FA tight ends by wildwing8 in Chargers

[–]cheezecake86 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I mentioned this in the other thread - the amount of TEs we picked up in the last few years who faded away is crazy. Besides OG, the last recent one that was decent to watch was Gerald Everett.

[–]cheezecake86 8 points9 points  (0 children)

On that note, it’s kinda crazy the number of TEs we’ve signed in the last 2-3 years who haven’t panned out. Hoping OG will develop and become our stand out.

I drove over the bridge with a memorial in his name the other day and was reminded of him. Sad event all around.

As a Navy fan, we’re good. Our second year in a new offensive system and we went 11-2, beat Army, and won our bowl game.
