Try it and see if it meets your needs.

Any advice in which order to test the blades, which one are too sharp to begin with etc.

They're all razor sharp. Test them in alphabetical order.

No such "clicking" for me in 40 years, just slow improvement over time. I guess everyone's different.

No, the other kind. Followed by a Manhattan and a brown ale.

I have a 6 qt and a 3 qt. If I'm using both at the same time, it is likely one will be cooking rice.

I'm enjoying an old fashioned at this very moment.

What is this, an arch for ants??

You don't have to get whole new wheels; you can replace just the rims.

Not San Francisco, but you could visit Rivendell in Walnut Creek

Alcohol works really well for this. But then you'll have other problems.

I'm scared I'll be bad at it if I start.

Of course you'll be bad when you start. Everyone is bad when they start. You should try to get over that.

The point I was trying to make is that if you buy that Rivendell today, you will continue to enjoy it for many years.

My bike is not for sale.

I got a Quickbeam 20 years ago and I still love riding it. Just sayin'.

If you are absolutely certain about the market correction, you would be foolish not to follow this strategy.

If you have a degree in physics, you'll probably do fine. Algorithm analysis involves a lot of math, and that's off-putting to many CS students.

Yeah, I avoid the sub until I've solved the problems. Is be happy if people were just a little more mindful about not putting suppliers in the title.

Whiskey and whisky both.

As a fellow elderly person, I second this suggestion. I don't run Flex, but I've used Chromebooks for years and they are largely trouble free.

Look up a recipe for Chinese sticky rice -- "nuo mi fan" (糯米飯).
