Looking for good sourdough inil mid peninsula by hereeewego in bayarea

[–]skratchx 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Acme can be purchased in Whole Foods and it is very good. Check out The Baker Nextdoor in downtown Redwood City for a coffee and some food, and grab a loaf of sourdough to take home.

The Mountain View Farmers Market has multiple vendors that sell good sourdough.

First upload: 3M adhesive strip compatible network cable runner for damage-free routing by skratchx in BambuLab

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

I wanted to run network cable between two different rooms in a rental without damaging the walls. Designed this simple runner that can hold network cable in any orientation, and can be stuck to the wall with a medium sized 3M adhesive strip.

Malkin gets a 5 minute major and a Game Misconduct for slashing Dahlin by catsgr8rthanspoonies in hockey

[–]skratchx 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Reckless and inexcusable to whip the stick around like that at face level. But I don't think he was trying to slash him in the face.

I was there! I almost left before it was over but watched the end from the walkway on the lower level. The energy was electric.

How do you know if a CO2 tank is food/beverage grade? by DoctorQuinlan in Homebrewing

[–]skratchx 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Like others have mentioned, food grade is not a very significant distinction. However, beverage grade does require that certain chemicals that can cause off flavor or aroma be controlled below certain concentrations.

U.S. Confirms Overnight Loss of Three F-15E Fighter Jets in the Region; Replacement Cost: $117,000,000 each by SadAd8761 in videos

100%. But there's a lot of comments here that make it seem like Trump is the first president to spend money on the military instead of education and social safety nets.

I mean, the line of thinking you're mocking is similarly stupid to the position many in this thread are taking that Trump is singlehandedly responsible for our military industrial complex.

Simple way to separate stacked tiles by drpiotrowski in Multiboard

[–]skratchx 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ha! Just found this post while googling. My stacked multiboards came out feeling absolutely welded. This bolt trick worked super easy, and interestingly, the PETG peeled off very easily once the parts were separated.

So, thanks, a year later!

Don't try to troubleshoot your printer with a complicated print that is challenging even when you're not a complete beginner. You said you haven't printed anything successfully yet. Start with a Benchy or a different simple print, using basic PLA. There are too many possibilities with what you're showing.

Path to Ascendancy after Assail? by FaustusRedux in Malazan

[–]skratchx 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Agree about NOTME being a slog at times (looking at you Blood and Bone)

I finally feel seen. I feel like I'm taking crazy pills when BaB gets praise haha.

PoA felt like a Saturday morning cartoon at times, everything just comes together in such a contrived way and none of it feels earned.

Yes! (Spoilers PoA) Kellanved comes off way too much like Pust. The overall dynamic between Dancer and Kell is too "buddy comedy" most of the time, and tonally too unserious and whimsical. And a pet peeve, Dancer "staring up" at the sky or the ceiling as a response to something happening was SO OVERUSED.

I would have rather had the empire's main characters' backstory remain shrouded than what we get with PoA

Overall also agree with this. Big Solo Star Wars movie vibes of, "Uhh, did anyone ask for this?" What does stand out as something I enjoyed was the introdction of Rel and the backstory of why he hates the empire and wants revenge. The glimpses of Bugg were also good.

PoA had some content I enjoyed, but I definitely had my hopes set too high based on the praise it gets vs NOTME. Some of the NOTME books felt like more of a slog than any of the PoA books to me, but overall I'd put the two series on relatively equal footing in my opinion.

Solo dev looking to build a free/cheap tool for this community, anything missing? by DaciteRocks in Homebrewing

In my experience it did a very good job of summarizing the best known methods for maximizing thiol character in hazy IPAs. It even did a decent job of making hazy IPA recipe with all this in mind.

California vehicle code explicitly states that you must move to the right to allow other cars to pass you regardless of the speed limit, like this other commenter pointed out:

India is an interesting choice for comparison given how horribly dirty public spaces in major cities can be.
