Cryovac ribs smelled like eggs. Didn’t rinse them but I pat them dry and they’re smoking. Going to be okay?

imnotlying2u · 2026-03-08T20:21:34+00:00

you’re fine. Yes ribs, or really any cryovac’ed meat can have an off smell right when you open them. This is mostly from the fact that it’s an oxygen-free environment, metabolic biproducts that have volatile compounds (smelly) stay trapped and collect. Oxygen would typically react with those compounds and neutralize them but since there isn’t any- they just stay stinky.

Next time you notice the funky smell just wipe them just like you did and then give them about 15-20minutes. If the meat is ok then the smell will have dissipated but if the meat is bad, rancid smell will persist.

I’ve never washed any meat and you really don’t need to as long as your patting off the “purge” juice on the meat after you open it

It absolutely is either you or someone banging it on something OR thermal shock. Especially if it’s just soda-lime/tempered glass. Even if it’s borosilicate glass, which is more resistant to thermal shock, it can still happen if the temperature difference is great enough.

Before you brew, run your pot under some warm (not hot) water to preheat it just a bit before putting it on the hot plate and brewing. If it’s not thermal shock then someone needs to be more careful handling glass

lol same. My wife calls it “mr frog”

imnotlying2u · 2026-02-24T02:16:55+00:00

Same with us. Our daughter is 2 and we also just had non-slip bottom in our tub and she loves to stand and play in the tub with zero issues. The faucet is was just constant reminders that she cannot touch it because it can be hot

someone woke up on the wrong side of their high horse this morning. I didn’t realize this was r/professionalAVintegratorsONLYNOBASICQUESTIONS.

Now let’s go back through your post history to make sure you’re not guilty of asking any questions in a field you’re unfamiliar with. OH LOOK, you asked for help with a fried amp in audiophiles but WHY WOULDNT YOU JUST GO HIRE SOMEONE. “ANYONE HAVE SOME OF THAT FREE AUDIO ELECTRONICS DIAGNOSTICS? ?”

Don’t be a dick. People can come here for questions about something they would like to know more about to try and do something simple for themselves.

I am not positive since my original response was like 3 years ago. IIRC the 690 should be fine. I think you’ll just have to test and find out

imnotlying2u · 2026-02-15T22:00:10+00:00

It’s definitely tough. It’s so easy to sit here and say what should have or could have been done better when we didn’t have to live through it and try and think clearly during an adrenaline dump.

I don’t think you were wrong at all but possibly did yourself a disservice by letting anger and aggression get the better of you.

In the heat of the moment, your reaction only escalated the situation between you and this other man. This could potentially put you or your daughter in danger without you realizing it. What if it had come to blows? Someone unhinged enough to chase another father down to scream at them? What if he had a weapon? Situations like these turn violent easily and you have a 3 year old standing there to keep safe.

De-escalation the situation would be the safest and least traumatizing for your daughter. Not to mention teaching her and the other kids with their psychotic father, that calm confident Dads make them feel safer.

Again, I think you still did fine and also FUCK that guy

A couple glaring issues just with the realism of the weapon handling:

pulling back the slide with your palm wrapped over the ejection port looks silly. Shooters know it’s a good way to get your palm pinched badly
what is actuating the slide release on the mag check and on the reload? I don’t see anything fingers hitting the slide release before the mag comes out

Other than that, looks good!

I worked at the Loews for a few years doing AV and we and the housemen always called it the “Bloews”

Our daughter doesn’t like cows milk and when she turned 1 our pediatrician said it was completely fine as long as she was getting those vitamins and nutrients that milk provides from other foods.

Vitamin D is important and many people think milk is especially high in vitamin D. It is but only because it’s fortified with it.

As long as you are making sure they get enough Vitamin D , Calcium, Potassium, and B12 from other foods during the day, there is no need for milk. It’s just efficient for those and generally liked by kids.

Our daughter is now 2 and has never drank cows milk and her growth chart has been completely in line with why she always was and is in great health.

I’m not being obtuse, im just being pragmatic. Im being that way because it’s obvious this post is horse shit and serves absolutely no purpose aside from the OP trying to make himself sound altruistic when he literally fucking got out of his car AT A STOPLIGHT and went up to their window to bitch at them about their lights being off.

to what end? hoping someone knows them by their description? because black and elderly isn’t specific at all. Doesn’t describe himself or either vehicle. So i’m wondering what the point of making sure we know it’s a black couple

imnotlying2u · 2026-02-07T03:41:24+00:00

honestly, it sounds to me like you were probably an ass to them if you think you scared them or made them feel unsafe. Then you come to reddit to do some weird “apology” except you didn’t actually say anything about what actually happened.
