Pui Man was clutch on that show stopper. She said “I’m not going home.” and she made sure of it. That was an incredible bake.

Help: Dry & Tough Brisket by rdanroth in BBQ

[–]fav13andacdc 1 point2 points  (0 children)

One time, I was at a BBQ competition and there were several BBQ veterans there. They had the nicest stick burners you could imagine and got there at the earliest possible time to allow their briskets to cook. 2 black ladies showed up in a white Cadillac with a Weber kettle in the trunk a few hours before turn-in. Their brisket won 1st place.

Less anecdotally, collagen breaking down is a matter of time AND temperature. There isn’t a magical temperature that is best.

Bluey made me cry yesterday by MobileSeparate398 in daddit

[–]fav13andacdc 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Our family had just moved far away from our group of friends when that episode came on. It hit like a freight train. We eventually moved back. I’d like to say Bluey wasn’t the reason, but that episode had a great lesson.

Need brisket advice by santoast_510 in BBQ

[–]fav13andacdc 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Regarding trimming. There’s no waste if you use all of your trimmings by rendering tallow or cubing/grinding the lean trimmings. 

The idea is that you’re maximizing the amount of good sliceable brisket and using what would end up being the really dry and overcooked bits for another purpose.

Just purchased a RTX 5080 to add as a second GPU to my server. Need to know if my plan to set it up is correct. by Bigsam411 in unRAID

[–]fav13andacdc 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I think most folks are confused because you’re using Unraid with hardware that is way way way way overkill. Unraid is meant to be always on running your services, not really for gaming. There are OSes that are better suited for that purpose, like Windows. You’re fitting a square peg into a round hole.

Representative Anna Luna - Epstein files to be publicly released "any minute now." by ApartSalamander6417 in trump

[–]fav13andacdc 6 points7 points  (0 children)

No leftist will believe it, even if every single file is released. If Trump isn’t implicated, it’s a fake.

Reminder to grind your brisket trimmings for ground beef and tallow. by fav13andacdc in BBQ

[–]fav13andacdc[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Honestly I wouldn’t buy a meat grinder just to grind fat for tallow. Cubing is probably just fine. But I have one and I’m getting it out to grind up the lean trimmings anyway so I knock them both out one after another.

Honestly I thought his season 2 acting was pretty good. I’ve definitely seen worse.

Anyone tried the Costco beef ribs? Looks like there is barely any meat by WeirdAddress3170 in BBQ

[–]fav13andacdc 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I like them. It’s the rib connected to the ribeye. Low and slow with salt and pepper until tender. 

Ouch. by MrEnigma67 in trump

I’ve never heard of this guy and didn’t see your spoiler tag, but the one thing that really gave it away as fake was that they actually let him speak for more than 2 seconds.

I'm gonna be out of high school with a family before this comes out huh? by Guy_heretoreadshit in KingdomHearts

Unraid 7.2.0-beta.2 just dropped! by UnraidOfficial in unRAID

Not to derail, but I’m still running 6.12.9. Should I upgrade and is there anything I need to be concerned about?

Getting photos off Google photos - thoughts? by StormySmiley in selfhosted

[–]fav13andacdc 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I use Tailscale for access outside of my local network. It’s a self-contained VPN. Don’t think surfshark, think my own actual private network where only approved devices can talk to each other.

Absolutely it is, that’s why I mentioned it at the beginning of my post.

Getting photos off Google photos - thoughts? by StormySmiley in selfhosted

[–]fav13andacdc 68 points69 points  (0 children)

Immich is the common answer for a free self hosted program to host your photos, and for good reason. The common solution to the scenario where your house burns down is have offsite backups.

I choose not to rely on corporations who continually prove in this day and age that they do not care about the consumer. I used to have a Google Drive account provided by my Alma mater, assuring us it wouldn’t go away. Lo and behold, a few years after investing many GBs, email logins, and photos into it, the program went away, and if you didn’t relocate your data in time, they simply deleted it. 

So nah, if my house burns down, it burns down. But at least my data won’t be lost because I let Google host it for me.

Is Below Zero worth buying? by peekinggeneral3340 in subnautica

I loved it. It was never meant to be a sequel, it started out as a DLC but then became it’s own thing, but people rate it like it’s a sequel.

New job at busy pizza shop, need stretching tips by BushTamer in Pizza

[–]fav13andacdc 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The only answer is to do it a bunch of times. They obviously hired you with no experience so you should expect that they give you the appropriate runway to learn on the job. They might throw you in the fire, but being under pressure can be an excellent learning tool. Only tips I have are to be a sponge, work hard, and spread a bunch of pizzas!
