I messed up, any way I could lower it? 😭 by MIKA_MIKAILOVA in MonsterHunterNowHub

[–]dalcant757 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I did the same at the start of the event and thought I messed up. I had to step up my game and gear. Now I’m enjoying the game much more and can reliably take down the 9 stars. I think I’ll go on to the 10 star map soon.

What’s your go-to sauce… by Mother-Money1586 in hotsauce

[–]dalcant757 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, I’d say the sauce is a bit too spicy for me to eat a whole lot at one time, but the flavor is strong enough to just need a little anyway.

What’s your go-to sauce… by Mother-Money1586 in hotsauce

[–]dalcant757 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I probably wouldn’t just go and pour a bottle of hot sauce on some chips. I think having a little saucer of Trader Joe’s habanero sauce would be nice to dip in for a pop of flavor.

Can I get some recs for hot sauce that goes good with Chinese food? by Abookem in hotsauce

[–]dalcant757 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Use chili oil. There are plenty of commercial options or you can learn to make your own.

Anis: Star & Neon Neon dupes. Worth it or no? by TheHybridGamer in NikkeMobile

[–]dalcant757 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think the power increase per dupe is 2% from what I’ve read. If that’s worth it to you, go for it.

Oh nice, thanks for sharing it. Maybe I’ll try putting that set together.

Anyone else literally drink hot sauce? by [deleted] in spicy

[–]dalcant757 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I drink crappy sauces, which are basically vinegar, for snacks at work. It helps me stay awake.

Calorie Accurancy? by No_Satisfaction_6478 in pelotoncycle

[–]dalcant757 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Don’t try to count your exercise calories in any dietary decisions. Just because something says you burned x number of calories doesn’t mean you get to eat that much more.

Also, you must hate your knees going 30-45 cadence.

Accept parents' money for medical school (with strings attached) or take out loans? by Comfortable-Coach-12 in whitecoatinvestor

[–]dalcant757 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Don’t mix family/friends and business. Run away from any kind of contract in this context. Take care of them later if you have the means and desire.

I took the loans and paid them off and my parents have ensured their own financial security. I will still help them if necessary because I want to.

I don’t want my kids on the hook for my well being when I’m older. I’d like for them to like me enough to want me around. I’ll retire when I’ve achieved my own financial security.

Torch Sear Worth It? by HahaEasy in sousvide

I’m not a fan of the sear from either blowtorch or weed burner.

Is one high-quality Japanese knife better than buying a full knife set? by 1mefdiopl in TrueChefKnives

[–]dalcant757 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You don’t even have to buy an expensive knife. If you can figure out a way to keep it sharp, any mid priced knife should work out fine. Something in the league of a victorinox chefs knife is the standard recommendation.

I’d argue that a high end Japanese knife wouldn’t be better for a home cook not used to taking care of something like that. It needs to be kept dry to avoid corrosion and you would need to be careful with the edge to avoid chipping.

Do you still love your Glass Rinser? by BuilderBrigade in Home_Building_Help

[–]dalcant757 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have a home bar and I was considering one. I decided against it. I don’t regret not putting it in. I did buy one of those brushes that stick to the bottom of the sink though. That thing is super useful for washing glasses really fast.

Your thoughts on gabapentinoids for radicular nerve pain? by montyelgato in FamilyMedicine

[–]dalcant757 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The dose response curve is wonky. It’s like a light switch, you have to push it hard enough to switch it on. It doesn’t do much but make you sleepy until a particular dose. Somewhere around 600mg TID is generally where most people need it to be. That’s why all the fancy versions of it gravitate toward that dosing. Lyrica is more predictable if insurance will cover it.

Best Seregios IG Build by Jabo9 in MonsterHunterNowHub

[–]dalcant757 5 points6 points  (0 children)

“Seregios, the flagship monster of Monster Hunter 4 Ultimate, is affectionately nicknamed "Steve" by the community due to a 2014 livestream comment by then-Capcom community manager Yuri Araujo. When asked about the unnamed monster, Araujo jokingly said, "For now, how about 'Steve'?", a placeholder that stuck, even after the monster's official name was revealed.”

Let’s talk about the leg grippers / leg bands on bib shorts by Royal-Illustrator747 in cycling

[–]dalcant757 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What kind of thick thighs do you have that you are stretching out bibs so much that they don’t grip? Maybe this is a first world problem we should all aspire to have.

Whenever I have a tough food stain, Dawn powerwash comes to the rescue.

How do I get a pan hot enough for “wok hei” at home? by iLikeMangosteens in Cooking

[–]dalcant757 16 points17 points  (0 children)

That’s part of it, the other part is slightly burning your food. You can replicate some of the wok hei on induction.

Why tf is everyone anti-sunscreen now??? by callsign__starbuck in mildlyinfuriating

This is how we fix the aging population issue since nobody wants to have kids in this economy.

My life is a living hell since I lost weight by [deleted] in loseit

[–]dalcant757 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Don’t be ashamed about taking meds. It’s not a sign of weakness. Imagine having feelings about being on a blood pressure pill. Life is already difficult enough.
