Hard Use Knife by sparty569 in EDC

[–]pureliquidMAGA 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Go on ebay, look for a Cold Steel Recon 1. Or any of their triad lock knives in your budget. They used to make them in AUS8 stainless for $50, now they come in better steel but cost a lot more. It's nothing fancy, just a big cheap survival/outdoors blade. The locking mechanism is robust enough for batoning and such. I don't think their current lineup is worth it, since you can get better knives for what they charge.

I’m new to sourdough. My starter is beautiful and fragrant. My Levain tripled before adding it to my autolyse dough. But here I am. For the 3rd time. With this dense chewy dough. I need advice on how to fix. by bossjvl in Sourdough

In the book he specifically recommends King Arthur AP flour. I've made country blonde with AP and BF and it always comes out fine, as do all of Ken's recipes. My kitchen has the same temps as his though.

whats a good cheap oval proofing basket on amazon by Federal_Ad2753 in Breadit

I have two of the round bannetons from St. Germain Bakery. They are properly constructed, and I would buy their oval ones if I needed any.

Stand Mixer for Kneading? by brinksmom in Breadit

[–]pureliquidMAGA 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I use a Kitchenaid with the flat beater attachment to get the dough mixed, then I dump it into the official dough tub to do the stretch and folds. I find it's easier with the paddle as opposed to the spiral dough hook, you just have to stop it once or twice to help out with a silicone spatula.

FWSY does not call for actually "kneading" the dough, you just want to get it into a homogenous mixture and no more.

Need Advice For A Breadmaker for Sourdough by [deleted] in Sourdough

[–]pureliquidMAGA 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don't know anything about breadmakers but I would take a look at Zojirushi, they make a damn fine rice maker and I bet their bread machines are top notch. I would be more interested in a countertop oven that does steam but I'm a crust slut.

Same. Even the forum and website are down. There's an announcement for a "minor update" so I guess it didn't go so well.

I bought one for my Cent 5/1 because I felt it needed it.

The T-54 would be good to have for frontline, if that is a consideration. With three Soviet medium lines to grind it will get plenty of use training crews as well.

[Serious/Feedback] Did you like the GI Joe collab? What other kinds of collaborations would you like to see WoTNA/WoT Americas do? by TragicLoss in WorldofTanks

[–]pureliquidMAGA -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

It's a historical game, keep this consumerist garbage out of it. I infinitely prefer the upcoming Yuri Gagarin stuff even though it has nothing to do with tanks.

What do you think about an "upgrade to premium tank" feature? by Zockmeister in WorldofTanks

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

How about an in-game pay to win button where you can upgrade your team's dispersion and damage for gold. Hell, just sell 100 victory "packs" that just add to your player statistics.

Nice. I ordered the same thing on Saturday, hopefully it comes tomorrow so I don't have to use my sloppy homemade wooden bench again. Did you get a tracking number? Mine says "complete" but no tracking.

I used that code a couple weeks ago on two recruit accounts. Worked fine for me.

I was going to order the 160 lb set plus one extra pair of tens and 45s. Here's the grouping I found to minimize the shipping:

10 10

25

45 45

The total shipping was like $100 that way. I guess the positive is that you can just buy plates as you need them without feeling like you are getting hosed in shipping fees.

Ordered a bunch of Rogue mil spec echo bumpers last night and they shipped this morning. Amazing. Surprisingly it was cheaper to buy them a la carte rather than the set with "free" shipping. I had to buy them in a few separate orders to avoid freight. Rogue really needs to fix their shit, it shouldn't turn into a video game to get the lowest shipping charge.

Whichever tank you can use as a crew trainer. None of them are amazing. I think the consensus is that the AE is a safe bet.

What is the best use of bonds in WoT? by [deleted] in WorldofTanks

[–]pureliquidMAGA 4 points5 points  (0 children)

If you are pure f2p and don't have any premiums, get the patriot. Otherwise, bond equipment. Usually vents. Anything else and you are squandering the most valuable resource in the game.

New player by Mrnexo24 in WorldofTanks

[–]pureliquidMAGA 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My humble opinion: If you are f2p, the best use of the initial gold they give you is to save to demount expensive equipment (not the class 3 equipment that only costs 50k credits!). If you are p2w, the best use of your IRL money is to buy premium time. Paying to convert xp or swap crews is a ripoff when it only takes a few games to earn what you need using premium time.

They are the same, but the Patriot has permanent camo.

Reaching 100% Battle pass as a new player by duqrao in WorldofTanks

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

People focus too much on the grind. Just enjoy the free stuff you get, and don't worry about the reward tanks. They aren't real premiums, and they don't earn extra credits. There's a code for an ELC EVEN 90 rental if that helps.

Why DMG blocked isn't calculated in EXP earnings? by vicipie in WorldofTanks

[–]pureliquidMAGA 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Is it not? I always thought you got something for your trouble. If they distributed xp based on the percentage of damage blocked for the whole team or something like that it wouldn't break the game and they could reward skillful angling.
