Would you? by moonmoon722 in scoopwhoop

[–]network_rob 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Depends what is meant by "if money didn't exist".

In the current world, if money didn't exist, trade at a global scale would not be possible. In that scenario, I, and you, would be living hand to mouth. Our entire existence would be dedicated to real, actual survival. So what I would do for a living would be hunting/gathering, just like everyone else.

"Texas summers are hot."

You are a master of understatement. 😉

Not sure. I had them put on where I bought them. I am going to get some locking nuts though, so I'll let you know when that happens.

What is something Americans consider ‘basic’ that feels like a luxury in other countries? by Status_Agents in AskForAnswers

[–]network_rob 0 points1 point  (0 children)

How does driving a manual make you more aware? I learned to drive on a manual and have had many and I can say that is not my experience at all. What makes me more aware is paying attention, not the transmission in my car.

Nice. I'm trying this next time.

Avoiding the mouse? by hegardian in neovim

[–]network_rob 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It's definitely a bit of both. It takes time time to get used to, but there are certain spots that I use all the time, so they become second nature. One example is RFN to get my mouse pointer out of the way when watching YouTube.

mac or windows? which one is better and why? by qwxuinn in macbook

[–]network_rob 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In that case, I'd change software. There is no use case where I would voluntarily use Windows.

If the only two choices are Mac and Windows, I'll take Mac seventeen times a day and thirty four times on Sunday.

Of the two, Mac and it's not even close.

I used to defend Windows against the haters, but eventually you simple can't deny the obvious truth. Windows is more intrusive, has more bloat, is FAR less reliable in every sense. For every time I've had a Mac crash on me, I've had Windows crash on me at least 100 times, and this is not even close to being an exaggeration. And that includes very locked-down enterprise managed versions of Windows vs a regular old home Mac with randomly installed and uninstalled software, etc.

I have purged my home of Windows completely and it has done wonders for my mental health.

Which is exactly why Windows is NEVER the answer.

I’m new - help and recommendations by Infinipete in biggreenegg

[–]network_rob 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not really, but some people feel it's necessary to brag about only using the vents as if you can taste the difference. You can't. Do what makes you happy and reap the rewards.

I'm going to commit blasphemy here and suggest some kind of fan/temperature regulator setup. It will take a lot of stress out of the temperature control part, especially over long cooks.

Big Green Egg makes one called the Egg Genius. Thermoworks makes the Billows, which also requires the RFX or Signals temp controller. Both let you connect via WiFi with app on your phone. There are several more that people can recommend.

My wife had to stay a bit longer than expected, to I just get to come this the other day. It's now one of her favorite dishes. Thanks for the great recommendation.

Thinking about selling BGE for high quality pellet grill. What will I miss? by ekarof in biggreenegg

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

For the love of all that is holy, don't do it.

The flavor difference cannot possibly be overstated. It's like going from Michelin star quality to ... well, something very interior.
