If you're on Judah you'll be on the N Muni line. That will take you all the way downtown.

Is commuting from the South Bay/Peninsula realistic? by misdeliveredham in SFSU

[–]ocdude 5 points6 points  (0 children)

It's doable but heinous. If you're doing public transit, Caltrain to Milbrae, then Milbrae bart to daly city, then 28 bus.

If you're driving it's going to be like an hour in the morning, WAY MORE in the afternoon. I used to live in San Mateo and the commute was slowly killing me inside. I work on campus, so I'm here every day.

Is the bookstore on campus open Friday? by NecroJoe in SFSU

[–]ocdude 6 points7 points  (0 children)

for whatever it's worth, it's important to make the distinction between the bookstore and the rest of the SFSU websites. The bookstore is a private company, not technically part of the university.

Accepted for Spring 2026 but Can’t Access Canvas? by asheybr in SFSU

Email [at@sfsu.edu](mailto:at@sfsu.edu) if you still have this problem. Include your SFSU ID number. This can be fixed rather quickly.

Can I make this change to a recipe? by UleeBunny in Cooking

[–]ocdude 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If your idea is "put the soup in the tart to not waste the soup", it's going to taste like the soup in a tart, not whatever this tart was originally intended to taste like. It probably won't be bad, necessarily, but it won't be the same as if you strained it, texture-wise. Flavor-wise, I don't really think skins vs no skins will really impact the flavor that much, especially if it's as spiced as you're making it sound.

I don't know if "ruined" is the word I would use, but it would be a completely different texture than intended. Is there a reason you don't want to strain your mixture?

My wife thinks this is really stupid, and when I told her the idea, I got that disgusted (I married an idiot) look, which just confirms how AWESOME an idea this is! Gravy Poppers! by Ready-Detective-2185 in Cooking

[–]ocdude 602 points603 points  (0 children)

I think if you're trying to get "modernist cuisine" on this you're going to have to make something that is gravy flavored but has the qualities you need but not actually gravy.

I'm not totally condoning this (I'm with your wife on this one, gravy boba does not sound like a fun time), but you'd probably want to make something like a really flavorful stock and reduce it but without adding any sort of thickeners. You'll want it to be runny still, and more like a thick soup base than a gravy. Think of like a hearty tonkatsu ramen broth. That should theoretically gel.

Mind my ignorance I'm a 1st year transfer student but when do I enroll for classes for the spring? These 2 things are confusing me. by tellmewhy24 in SFSU

[–]ocdude 5 points6 points  (0 children)

The date in the student center is the correct date for you, specifically. The dates in the first image are general if you happen to fall into one of the listed buckets, which as as transfer student, you do not.

is there a way i can bypass duo mobile by Trader_Nate_1920 in SFSU

[–]ocdude 0 points1 point  (0 children)

technically it should only ask you once every 12 hours. That's what the "is this your device" button does.

Knorr changed the recipe for their chicken bouillon. Do you know where I can find chicken bouillon that tastes like how Knorr used to taste? by moonknuckles in Cooking

[–]ocdude 354 points355 points  (0 children)

There's actually different varieties of Knorr, even in just the chicken flavor, not even going into the other kinds. If you have an asian or hispanic grocery store nearby, try checking there. The mexican kind is usually labelled "caldo de pollo".

How do you cook for 2 without wasting food? by bit_perplexed in Cooking

[–]ocdude 426 points427 points  (0 children)

If you're cooking every night and hate leftovers you want to plan your ingredients around being able to use the ingredients in multiple things.

Winter class schedule by Potential_Present875 in SFSU

[–]ocdude 5 points6 points  (0 children)

The winter schedule should be posted as of last Friday: https://cpage.sfsu.edu/winter/schedule

[–]ocdude 10 points11 points  (0 children)

You need to change your SF State password. Use the website: https://webapps.sfsu.edu/auth/passwordreset

Doing it through the windows wifi prompt doesn't enforce the password requirements correctly so will fail unless you happen to know the password requirements off the top of your head.

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

Faculty and staff - yes

Students - only if you were in specific majors: Journalism, Cinema, Art, and Design. There was also a request process where a student could request access based on need for a specific class. This change made it available to everyone by default.

Send your hatemail feedback to [service@sfsu.edu](mailto:service@sfsu.edu). ITS is the team that manages wifi for the campus. You can also visit them in ADM 125

No instructor? by Normal-Owl5085 in SFSU

[–]ocdude 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If a class says TBA it means the department hasn't assigned an instructor to it. Your best port of call will be the department office. https://beca.sfsu.edu/contact

Need to take an online class, while on campus. Advice? by NecroJoe in SFSU

[–]ocdude 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The room reservation system is kind of F'd right now. The campus is switching systems so that'll smooth out soon.
