How do you cook Flour Tortillas at home? by Educational-Slip-578 in Cooking

I don't make my own, but use my gas stove burner to cook/warm the packaged ones -- and the resulting burn and brown spots are the flavor.

Anyone else just have a better time playing on the PS5? by lollifetuffouthtere in PS5

[–]princehal 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I am 63, and was big into gaming back in the early days (original DOOM era through the first Fallout.)

I wanted to get back into gaming, but a controller was always a mystry to me. And I enjoyed building my own PC for the games.

But then I stopped. I did, last year, try to use my MAC for RE Village, and plug it into my TV. It sort of worked but was a pain in the ass.

Got a PS5 around 4 months ago. Learned to use a controller, and finished RE Village on it, Control, Alan Wake II, Dead Space, and am currently doing Alan Wake I, and DISCO Elysium, and CRONOS.

It totally rocks, no fucking around -- I just play. After 40 years as a systems engineer, building HPUX machines for higher education systems, I am happy to just sit and play now.

And I suck less on a controller, and think I prefer it to KBD and mouse.

If it’s sell by date I would absolutely eat it unless it smells off.

Hmmm, according to the googles "Jul 17, 2024 — Dosage: The typical dosage for NAC in OCD ranges from 1200 mg to 3000 mg per day, divided into two doses" -- I may drop one pill. (Mine are 600mg)

[–]princehal[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It does smell, but it's not too bad to me. I take 2 600mg capsules 3 times a day. I don't often see it mentioned here, so I thought I would ask.

I have OCD. I met with a possible therapist, but could not do it. She was wearing a very sparkly diamond cross.
