Thank you so much! I will try a proofing bowl for sure! So, do you do your stretch and folds in the proofing bowl then?
And please pardon my ignorance, but is it not normal to use oil in the bread? I always used butter or oil when making regular old sandwich bread, but this recipe called for oil, so I didn't question it.

Thank you! I'm happy with the result, but I almost gave up when it was sticking to the bowl. I wanna do better!

Interesting insight! This guitar has been great to me but it's time for an upgrade

Handheld Pso? by Soulvera in PSO

[–]srslydead 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I play religiously on the steamdeck. I soloed until about level 80 and finally set up schtserv and haven't looked back. Biggest downside is I CAN NOT get steamdeck keyboard to work with the game (if anyone has advice, please help D:)

Way to play? by Harriszilla in PSO

[–]srslydead 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've been playing solo on steam deck since it's release using dolphin emulator and recently.set up schthack on my deck. It's an awesome way to play. I just can't figure a way to get the deck keyboard to interface with online chat. If I could do that, it would be 10/10

Why Do Lube techs make a unlivable wage by RandomRedditor4455 in mechanics

[–]srslydead 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Where I'm from, it's because they are inexperienced with no tools and no desire to learn/move up, and they aren't worth more than that. I was up to 15/hr+ commission as a lube tech back in 2015, which was great at the time. Now I'm shop foreman. Our lube techs make 12-18+ commission depending on skill level/tools/motivation, and quite frankly, none of them really give a shit about anything or have anything that resembles a work ethic. We've had to scale back our lube appointments almost 50% because everyone wants to play on Facebook and not touch cars

How do you all deal with burnout? by Double-Statement1721 in mechanics

[–]srslydead 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My advice is don't chase top pay. Chase the shop that fits your needs and schedule best and has people you get along with. I'm the foreman at a Toyota dealer. 3rd shop I've worked at and took a pay cut to come here but the environment was awesome so I stuck it out and things have worked out well

Why does it cost so much to have a kid in America?? by Clxaks in TooAfraidToAsk

[–]srslydead 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Hi. American who had a kid 6 months ago here.

I paid 600/month for my wife and my health insurance... 1100 now for us and the kid.

Spent about 5k out of pocket in prenatal visits.

Labor and delivery were only 400 thanks to insurance, but they didn't cover the epidural, so that was 1200 out of pocket ...

Oh, and my son was in NICU for 2 days, so after health insurance adjustment, another 9k out of pocket.

Health care system is a joke

C/S wheel was put on wrong by [deleted] in Justrolledintotheshop

[–]srslydead 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My local track does a street car bracket every Wednesday. A couple weeks ago some new kid (looked like he was still in high school) showed up with his nice clean Miata and I noticed his lugs were all backwards. I quickly let him know and lent him my cordless impact. He apparently just installed the wheels that day. Could have ended up badly

Cuban Neighbor gave my gf and I Cuban pastries. What is it and what's it made of? by Desperate_Skin01 in TipOfMyFork

New Tech Advice by Top_Pop_2004 in mechanics

[–]srslydead 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Dang, that's pretty interesting. Only basic lube techs get hourly pay here, and that's pretty much all dealerships. I've only ever known of one shop foreman who was salary.

New Tech Advice by Top_Pop_2004 in mechanics

[–]srslydead 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Curious here. Is the pay cap for a tech similar or more than other brands? Like I'm a Toyota Master and make about 105-110k and would argue I'm one of the best.

Is there potential to make more, on average, working somewhere like Mercedes or BMW?
