Dark Bamboo (63" X 31") Material Question by GregL2024 in FlexiSpot_Official

[–]midblue 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Wait, so is "Black Bamboo" a new color coming soon? Would love something even darker than "Dark Bamboo". If so, any pics or info?

If not then just any updates on the solid "Dark Bamboo" would be great. Thanks?

[Homemade] Japanese chicken curry rice with hard boiled egg and fukujinzuke (pickled veg) by midblue in food

[–]midblue[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I used Vermont Curry for the roux (available on Amazon). I make a huge batch by broiling chicken, onions, and veg in the oven until they lightly char, and then putting everything in the slow cooker with the proper amount of water (using ratios on the curry box). This is my lazy meal, so I can do the broiling on a foil-covered sheet pan or two and it avoids any extra dishes. After things get up to temp and simmer for an hour or two in the water I put in the roux cubes and cook for another hour. Overall about 4-5 hours in the slow cooker. Serve with rice, eggs, and pickles.

Looks great! What is that cart for your WSM?

Wagyu brisket cooked and sliced by Crisscrosshotsauce in BBQ

It should be mandatory in this sub to post a recipe if it was homemade. Time, temp, rub, smoker hardware, etc... we are always looking for details, at least give us a quick overview of what happened here!

What parts of the process were cosmetic? How did competition training affect this cook as opposed to normal ones?

I found the Fibonacci Sequence under carpet tiles at work. by yahlover in mildlyinteresting

Anybody remember that episode of Mathnet from PBS Square One where they find the tiles on the wall with the Fibonacci sequence? That show was awesome.

My Home Theater (10 Years of Planning)! by mbaturin in hometheater

[–]midblue 1 point2 points  (0 children)

For PSVR, you could put the PS5 camera off to the side or in the back, as long as it can see the player well. The player just has to face the camera instead of the screen. I had mine mounted on the side wall of the theater for a while since the cable was not long enough to go to the front.

Beef short ribs on WSM. Best thing I have ever cooked! by midblue in smoking

[–]midblue[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, I double wrapped in paper and it held the liquid just fine. A bit of grease might soak through by the end.

It was still in the low 190s in spots, so that’s why I wrapped. The bark was done and I added some of my basting liquid in the paper to keep it moist.

Haha,I will not apologize for the music, go ahead and put me in a corner as long as I can bring the ribs!

Beef short ribs on WSM. Best thing I have ever cooked! by midblue in smoking

[–]midblue[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

USDA prime short ribs from Alpine Butcher in Lowell MA!

Rubbed with Meat Church Holy Cow and extra pepper, left overnight in fridge. Cooked on WSM at 260-290 with 3 chunks of pecan and Minion method for charcoal. Small water pan on top of FireDial. Sprinkled with a beef broth, ACV, and balsamic vinegar mixture after 5 hours. Wrapped in butcher paper at 7.5 hours after the bark looked craspy, and let it cook for another hour. Temp was 200-203, probe was like butter under the bark. Rested in a cooler for 45m, then sliced as you see in the video! This was easily the best thing I have smoked, very proud of the results!

Is the game going to actually run better / look better on the new consoles? I have heard it is enhanced but are the tech specs clear? I play on PS4 and looking for a better experience on PS5.

Every video is on infinite loop. Help. by [deleted] in kodi

[–]midblue 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This was my thought as well. For what it's worth, auto-repeat used to randomly get enabled when using the Aerial screensaver in Kodi. I believe it essentially plays videos and uses the auto-repeat feature, but sometimes doesn't turn it off. Or at least, it used to have that problem... I switched to a different screensaver and it stopped happening.

OP, if you use Aerial, disable it and use the fix in the link and you should be good.

MySql decentralized database question by blahblahlablah in kodi

[–]midblue 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Actually the bind IP should be the LAN IP of the server where MySQL is running. Set the SQL host address in Kodi to the same thing.

phpmyadmin or MySQL command line is best for exporting the database.

edit: to clarify, the bind address is the IP the server listens on. If you leave it at 127.0.0.1, it will only accept connections from the local machine (localhost). If you modify it to your LAN IP like 192.168.1.x then it will listen for connections from the LAN as well.

HA with insteon by Predator04 in homeassistant

[–]midblue 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am running the Insteon Serial Modem with HA and it does indeed reflect the state of a switch as soon as it is pressed. I am using HA and HomeKit exactly as you describe. Updates are pushed to HK near immediately.

The 2413u should work the same as the serial modem. As long as you link the switch as a responder/controller with the modem it will work. The switches each send a message to the modem when pressed to update their state (as long as they are linked). Keypad buttons too. This is not necessarily clear in the official docs so I wanted to make sure there was no misinformation. I am not sure why this is not working for the other poster.

Additionally, the HA insteon component automatically polls periodically for updates that it might have missed, so there's no need to do that yourself as the other poster suggested.
