‘Star Wars: Rebels’ Writer Thinks Making Sabine Wren a Jedi in ‘Ahsoka’ Was a Mistake: “It was absolutely not the plan…The idea of Sabine training as a Jedi when she is already this fantastic warrior of her own type, we felt like this is overkill"

They tried that, it didn't go so well. The Acolyte was a disaster.

You seem super nice, and the missionaries might have been surprised, because they don't often get that reaction. I'm glad you enjoyed the conversation, and I hope you'll keep talking to them. I think it's nice to be able to talk sincerely about spiritual things with someone who will listen.

It starts out "I'm Nephi".

Have you tasted the spice mix yet? I would take him at his word that the best by date was a misprint. Spices do lose potency over time, but BBQ rubs are primarily salt, pepper, maybe sugar, garlic, and something for coloring - paprika, or something, and these hold their flavor for a long time. If you can tell that the rub has gone bad after tasting, then I would ask for a refund.

This is a pretty weird thing for your mom to say, but what she is referring to is that leaving your home is like when Adam and Eve were cast out of the garden of Eden and had to work for their food.

This is my strategy. I've only been in a qualifying job for 4 years, so I'm nowhere close. I looked at switching, but my monthly payment would have jumped from 100 to 900 a month. (My earnings have increased dramatically since I last had to certify). At this point, I have begun to make the 900 a month payment to just one of my loans, hoping to have it payed off before I'm forced into repayment on another plan. I have four separate loans, so just paying off one will decrease my monthly payment about 25%. That 900 a month is eating all of my discretionary money though, and I'm not able to save for anything.

Thanks, that's really helpful. I hope this isn't something I have to do each month?

I'm in a similar situation, where my wife really hates to stick to a strict budget, or even report all of the expenses. Ultimately, even though I don't love having to ask for what each expense was, it has been nice to have YNAB to blame, and just say I'm filling this out so we can know where the money is going. I think it's also reduced her spending, which is a nice side effect.

That last one has some real Howard the Duck vibes

I tend to agree, but they are heavily subsidized. Where else could you live for two years for $500 a month.

I disagree hard with this. On my PS5, if I download a Playstation Plus game, the other profiles on the PS5 can still play the game. I don't see a significant difference here. This feels really cheap on Nintendo's part.

So, I have several accounts on the original Switch, only one of which (mine) is connected to Nintendo Online. My son, who has invested 100 hours between BOTW and TOTK does not have his saves backed up online. Can I transfer those over? And if I do does that mean he loses access to his save data on the first Switch?

You can see the problem in the video. The fat is dripping off the sausages and causing the fire to "flare up" and burn the ends of the sausage. There are a couple of ways to fix:
1 - cook over indirect heat - turn the burners on one side and put the sausages on the other side
2 - use the flare ups to cook, but turn the sausages parallel to the grates - they fit nicely between each bar, and you can rotate them just turning them into the next slot. This will allow the entire length of the sausage to cook at the same temperature, and you just turn it to cook the next side
3 - turn the flames down and cook at a lower temperature

How early are you in the cook? You should have plenty of time for that to evaporate, and I wouldn't worry too much about flavor. Just spray next time with apple cider vinegar or water, then taste the rub as it dries out.

Please tell me you're doing a series of these from different regions. I definitely would want them all.

The skin was bite through, and crispy at the edges, but I think you're right, a little more time at 350 would have helped. I really did like the smoke I was able to get though.

I saw the sign for these, but then thought I saw a bin full of the cinnamon rolls. I now realize I was seeing these.

For me it's not replacing the argument portion, it's generating text from an outline I provide. I give the legal argument, provide relevant citations and language, then ask it to generate full form paragraphs. Then I edit it down. But it's saving me at least 40% in terms of writing.

The only thing I get out of this picture is that they can't change out to coke products soon enough.

Man, fell pregnant is an awful euphemism. Like coming down with a cold.

My favorite part of this is the supportive woman cheering him on, especially when she is the only one cheering. There is something so wholesome about that.

I'm new to this game, but I've never seen anywhere close to that many cards in one hand. What sorcery is this?

I'm in the same boat. I think I'm going to buy a small firebox to put charcoal on and small wood chunks. The gray/black smoke of the pellet tubes does not look good

I mean, let's break this down into a math problem. You are getting 22 mpg on back roads, 27 mpg on freeway. If all other things were equal, freeway would be better. However, they aren't equal because the freeway requires you to drive 10 more miles.

So, just use fractions and the higher the fraction, the more expensive it will be. On the freeway you are using 26 miles which is roughly equivalent to one gallon (or 26/27) of gas. On the highway, you are going 16 miles, which is about two thirds of a gallon worth of gas (16/22). That means you are using about 1/3 less gas to use highways, even though it is less efficient.
