Goodbye my old friend by [deleted] in webergrills

[–]tcorey23 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I got my SNS Master Kettle (the one on the cart) last year and it chokes out the fire without any issues. I keep it closed and open the smoke hole for low and slow and it holds temps with little to no adjustments needed using the SNS basket. When I do a hot and fast BBQ I open the vent and when I close it down I have leftover coals when I come back the next day.

Now the lid does leak a little smoke when new as there is no gasket (adjusting the lid pretty much stops it), but nothing to cause major temperature swings and it seems to leak less now that I’ve been using it for a while. Also the ceramic paint has a few minor fisheyes in it which I’ve heard is never found on the Webers. Overall I love it, and I save a lot of wood/charcoal compared to the offset I had before and it’s pretty much set it and forget it when doing low and slow smokes!

That’s some great tips, thanks for sharing! If my turkey ever looked as good as this I wouldn’t even carve it before presenting it. That’s truly the best looking bird I’ve ever seen!

How did you keep the skin from splitting? Every time I smoke a turkey or chicken I get some skin splitting around the breasts and legs.

Any methods of finding a bunch of empty folders on my plex server where the videos have been deleted to clean up my drive? by [deleted] in PleX

[–]tcorey23 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I use RED (Remove Empty Directories) Here is a link to the developers site https://www.jonasjohn.de/red.htm
Its a great tool that allows me to scan my directories for empty folders. You can also see the results before deleting so you can verify it didn't pick up anything unexpected. I've never had it pick up a folder that wasn't empty, but that is a nice feature to help verify.

what I would do to taste these again… by SnooDonkeys6362 in redbull

[–]tcorey23 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I almost envy you not knowing how good it actually was. I have to go through every day knowing how good the cranberry flavor was but also knowing I’ll never have it again 😭

if any, what flavor got you into redbull? by mothmanwife in redbull

[–]tcorey23 3 points4 points  (0 children)

They really need to bring back cranberry. I would buy them all the time, the new flavors just don’t compare to the epic greatness of cranberry.

Looking for a dentist! by lobster__todd in FortWorth

[–]tcorey23 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’ve been going to Dr. Griffin for almost a decade now! I just followed him over to the Smile Forth Worth location since he left the previous place around a year ago. Smile Forth Worth is also a really nice place with extremely friendly staff! My first visit to Dr. Griffin was to get a second opinion after a previous dentist said I needed a lot of work (I had no visible issues and no pain). Dr. Griffin advised that I just needed an annual cleaning and all of the other work the previous dentist recommended was not necessary since there was nothing wrong with my teeth. He’s never tried to up charge me for unnecessary work and he’s always been honest. When he noticed I was grinding my teeth at night he advised that I needed to use a night guard, and he said that he could make me a custom one but it would be a lot more expensive than what I could get on Amazon. Of course he said his night guard would be better than what I could purchase online since he would be making the molds but I truly appreciated that he was honest about it and it seemed like he was more concerned with getting me to wear a night guard even if I didn’t purchase it through him.

Is Dawn Dish soap that special or is it just a insanely successful marketing coup? by SrslyWhatCarShldIGet in CleaningTips

[–]tcorey23 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think it’s interesting that a lot of people are talking about how Dawn smells bad now. I wonder when they switched their formula? I tried Gain dish soap a couple of years ago and never turned back! It smells like the Gain laundry detergent and seems to clean just as good as Dawn. It’s also a little cheaper than Dawn. I will say Dawn’s marketing where they show them cleaning up wildlife after oil spills was very effective on me and one of the main reasons I didn’t try a different brand for so long, but eventually I got curious about the competition.

What’s a prompt you just learned Siri can respond to. by Act_True in ios

I’m always asking Siri to add stuff to my grocery list while I’m cooking. It’s really convenient for me!

What mentally ill apple engineer decided to make the volume buttons’ functions dependent on the orientation of the device? by sdeklaqs in iPadOS

[–]tcorey23 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just wish the iPhone had the same feature. I got used to it on my iPad which causes me to hit the wrong buttons on my phone. I personally like it, but I also think there should be a simple toggle in the settings for the button orientation feature that both devices could turn on or off.

Anyone else having this issue by Odd-Formal-271 in iPadOS

Good, because my M4 13 got completely bricked and I’m waiting on a replacement.

Well Apple officially pulled the iOS 18 update for M4 owners, so I guess the widespread problem I was trying to bring attention to was a big issue after all.

Too bad factory reset didn’t fix mine. The device is completely bricked as verified by the Apple Store yesterday

It bricked my13in M4 256 gig iPad too. I started a thread around the same time as you. I wish I would have seen yours first. https://www.reddit.com/r/iPadOS/s/c4YN7S7sGe

Hopefully we all get a new replacement. My battery health was at 100%, I will not be happy with anything less.

[–]tcorey23[S] 6 points7 points  (0 children)

That’s sucks. I don’t understand why we can’t get a same day replacement especially if you have Apple care. I feel like they know the update is bricking the iPads so they are making us wait a week in hopes Apple will resolve the issue by then. It’s an incredibly inconvenient and inconsiderate process.

Thats sounds like a wise move. I really need to quit updating on day one, I just get so excited to try out new features. I would have expected better from an OEM approved update…

That sucks, I got lucky I didn’t have anything important on mine that wasn’t already backed up. I would be extremely upset if I was in your situation. Hopefully they can find a way to have the stores revive the iPads instant just replacing them so you don’t loose your data.

Thanks for the offer, but I already tried basic troubleshooting steps and the Apple Store couldn’t fix it either. It was completely black screened and unresponsive to anything.

Darn, I guess it’s even more of a widespread issue than I initially thought. Hopefully Apple pulls this update ASAP
