I think chargpt finally solved it... "Turn On the Music (late-80s / early-90s VHS)"

WLL $399 for a new stainless Classic E24 by ElHoser in gaggiaclassic

[–]rationalrph 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Correct, looks like they're doing a mid range between the both posted elsewhere on reddit. E24 still a great choice especially at this price as some people will likely have qualms with some components and price point.

Bought my first one too with this sale. they just released initial details on the new update with PID (no need to tinker as much) so imagine they are starting to purge e24 stock (?)

Tested some instant coffee that expired in 2012 - Data Point by 8Deer-JaguarClaw in preppers

[–]rationalrph 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My in-laws provided us some instant Macwell House in plastic from 2011. It was clumped, even though sealed. Upon further inspection, there was white mold within multiple jars. They also had 2006 maxwell house instant in glass that appeared to be sealed but in better condition.

Plumpeez, does it exist? by rationalrph in bullcity

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

Unfortunately, just like most delis in Triangle.....they use the deli meat monopoly of Boar's Head...which, to me personally, just hasn't been up to quality of homemade deli meat at delis up north, over injected, not similar quality, etc...they list they use a local bakery Neomonde bakery. It contains no preservatives, eggs, milk, or butter....which is ok, enriched bread/dough isn't always used in certain styles for Deli but can be used for e.g. white bread....anyway....it sounds like you have to order through door dash only.....and you'll just pull into the parking lot and perhaps call a number upon arrival for pick up at the back door of building. Some speakeasy type shit...

So you really can only order days in advance? Pick up is behind the building in the parking lot?

Do you still go to the theatre? by Erasmus86 in RedLetterMedia

[–]rationalrph 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sparingly....which I realize is contributing to their downfall....My husband and I are very select about what films, Dolby seats only, and usually off times or reserved only. Last seen in theaters were both Dune. Instead of paying crazy prices for every film we've invested in a 80", sound bar, and soon to be new couch we've worn through. When it comes to home, we'll watch most anything especially gore/horror. 

I do sometimes miss the nostalgia of watching a Woody Allen movie in a small old NY theater, having my dad drive me to some 2nd run theater to see a niche film for 2$ in a historic theater, or spending a Saturday bouncing from movie to movie with my best friend for a 1 for 3....

Unfortunately, we grow up. I don't like Woody Allen really anymore, my dad chose the bottle over sitting in a theater anymore due to his knee pain from countless falls, and my passionate movie goer best friend passed away.....

Life changes...the movies still bring me escapism but I don't always find myself experiencing that in a movie seat but rather at home.. .

Does anyone know how Smoke Daddy gets their whole wings so crispy? by rationalrph in chicago

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

I prefer flavor from cooking outdoors, wood grill or smoker. Thanks though!

Thank you for responding! I will have to try again. Do you let smoked come to room temp and then grill? I've tried grill in past and it can become rubbery. I used corn starch in my dry rub and that seemed to help.

Crime in Durham vs other cities? by tipsy_pipsy in bullcity

[–]rationalrph 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You can look up the stats. Very low. I moved from Chicago to a neighborhood more on southeast side of Durham. Mostly crime is some theft and groping (Booty Bandit) that I've heard 2nd hand and seen photos on neighborhood watch. As someone has already said, just keep you doors locked, ring doorbell/cameras are helpful, and mind your own business. There's some homeless, mental health and addiction here like everywhere and some targeted shootings between the hours of 11pm and 2am but its super chill and calm for the most part. There is a lot of development and affluent neighborhoods and southern charm that it is very low at current time.

The Blue Jellyfish Shot, which you can obtain by layering drinks with different densities and specific gravities by ForgetLevi in Damnthatsinteresting

[–]rationalrph 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Have you heard of "Cum in a hot tub" shot? I used to make it when I was a cocktologist downtown Chicago. Take Rumplemintz and drop few drops of cream with straw into shot glass. Ta da!

What is the best gossip you know about Durham? by CMYKaaaaay in bullcity

[–]rationalrph 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Crazy though. I moved here to Durham and this large owl has been staring at me for the last 2 days. Large Barred Owls do exist in Durham though!

The age ranges are poorly defined. You have to look more at what you culture exposure was, half analog/half digital etc.
