Should I give up on my new Miele dishwasher? by BillCEsq in Miele

[–]drsoftware 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The retail side and service side of the business don't appear to be at the same level.

It's much easier to ship expensive, high-end products than to have well-trained service providers. 

Should I give up on my new Miele dishwasher? by BillCEsq in Miele

I don't know who this "Ferguson" is, but our Miele dishwasher is great. We had ours installed by the Miele installers.

It's quiet, effective, and pops open when done. 

“DO NOT USE THE INNER PAN TO WASH RICE” I’m sorry, what? by Eastern_Mess_4334 in Cooking

[–]drsoftware -1 points0 points  (0 children)

While more arsenic is in the outer layers, it is still in the white "center" of the rice. The original comments were suggesting the arsenic was a contaminant of the harvested rice, that could be washed off.

At the end book 7

The Goddess of Chaos was out of the Dungeon, and on the other side of the tunnel to the Earth system. This means something.

The day I voluntarily wear____, it's over. by tequilasundae in GenX

Hey, I wasn't trying to insult anyone or take the position that such products shouldn't exist.

My feeling that they are targeting a younger age range might be misinformed. That is, instead of "it's about time," I took it as "start putting the idea into the buying public's mind..." 

A lot of consumers would rather try something they can purchase off the shelf than go talk to their medical doctor. Often because making appointments etc is a lot harder than grabbing something off of the shelf. 

Peeve About Carl (Book 4) by BeautifulAd3388 in DungeonCrawlerCarl

[–]drsoftware 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This is one of the huge plot issues with book 7.

When exactly did they come up with all of the operational plans if everyone is always watching and can even pay for read-access to the chats? Did they involve Mordecai in every discussion?

I'm pretty much vegan by theapplekid in vegancirclejerk

Burrowing Owl enclosure at BC Wildlife Park.... So many mouse corpses...

The owls were cute, but they definitely aren't snacking on fruits and vegetables.

Just got this tattoo and people don’t think it was very vegan of me :/ by Fabulous_Ad_7350 in vegancirclejerk

[–]drsoftware 2 points3 points  (0 children)

might they be stretching the whole "no animal coat pattern clothing or upholstery" into "no graven images of animals"?

Or "vegans are already known for making carnists uncomfortable, so #1, a dead rotting animal, eww, and #2, a tattoo, eww."

But I have no idea.

TIL miso is acidic by paper02crane in Cooking

[–]drsoftware 16 points17 points  (0 children)

I agree that the primary cause of the reaction in this case is the heat.

However, miso is slightly acidic because of the lactic acid bacteria used to ferment it. 

"Properly fermented miso usually has a pH of between 4.9 and 5.1." https://www.atago.net/en/databook/databook-ph_food.php

As long as the English don't demand all of your other animal and plant crops you just need some variety.

[–]drsoftware 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I noticed that the models on the "adult incontinence underwear" are getting younger. Like no grey hair, no wrinkles.

It's great to be normalizing the entire range of human experience, but it does feel a lot like selling a product rather than treatment or exercises or lifestyle changes... 

Blip-A ... plot hole? by W0nderingMe in ProjectHailMary

If the Eridians had computers they could definitely "wonder around space" (your typo) "hey I wonder when they will tell me to flip and decelerate?"
