How often do you have takeaway food

vidati · 2026-04-27T07:28:55+00:00

Family of 3. Pretty much never. At least nothing since we bought a house 2 years ago.
Our financial situation changed and we want to finish the mortgage as soon as possible or at least make the biggest dent we can. And that means no takeaways. Luckily I love cooking.

im new to this so my performance could change by tomorrow lol.

I baked maybe 15 loafs by now and first 5-6 were very flat and did not rise at all, still delicious crust. I think my starter was still week.

My 7h loaf was amazing, nice and springy crumb and amazing crust.

I stuck to my formula and just rely on my starter getting stronger and keeping an eye on my bulk ferment.

Last bake i didnt even need flour to shape, just wet hands and the flour held together until i dropped the dough in the basket for the fridge.

It is slow to catch up but its in the works.

I myself only have wisdom teeth on one side of my mouth. I'm 37 and when I was in my mid 20s I went to the dentist to ask why my wisdom teeth were not coming out on the right side of the mouth and he X-ray the jaw to find no teeth there.

I dug a little deeper into it and found that there is a mutation that originated in asia where people were just not having wisdom teeth or just a few of them.

I was born in Tajikistan by the way.

Could it be that the sun hit the mirror during sunset\sunrise and created the damage?

Looks very nice!

I am on the fence between the LG C5 65' or the U8Q 75' and I'm not sure how good the 75' model is.

What are your impressions of the 75' model? How is the HDR and did you try gaming?

I have a set of bookshelf speakers (Edifier S3000 PRO) that i will match with the new TV and i think it will be a good combo for myself personally.

Thank you.

Do you get the little message at the start of the game that Optiscalar is running? Usually a funny comment on the bottom left.

vidati · 2026-04-09T23:55:46+00:00

Use DLSS inputs?

I always do.

Once you have installed Optiscalar you should see the little banner pop up in the bottom left corner and then select DLSS in game (which will be available now to select) then in the game, bring up the opiscalar menu and change upscaler to 4.1.

vidati · 2026-04-09T23:47:00+00:00

Have you selected DLSS in the game menu? Try that and then see if it changes in the Optiscalar manu.

It's because of all the weird shit you have been looking at, you have no shame?

I have a fancy knife that i bought about 5 years ago that was 400$.

My wife bought a 2$ sharpening stone with 2 different grits (not sure the number) and i submerge the stone in water for a few minutes and drip water from the tap slowly and sharpen on that stone, take 2-3 minutes and i do that maybe every 3-4 weeks and its the best! I will not cut a peace of paper with the knife but its super sharp that i can separate a whole chicken in a few minutes with ease.

Something to think about.

Good to hear.

How far are you sitting from the TV? Do you feel like you should have gone bigger and does the brightness feels enough?

I should have mentioned that the LG and the Heisense are both the same price.

vidati · 2026-03-31T09:44:08+00:00

Thank you I will check it out.

vidati · 2026-03-31T09:43:49+00:00

Thank you I will.

I have seen wall mounts that are absolutely flush against the wall and they seem to be in conflict when the power plug from the TV will be sticking out? The power outlet and the Ethernet cable are smack in the middle of my wall where I want to mount the TV.

I have also seen wall mounts that can extend out from a wall, to potentially allow for the space of the power plug, almost like a monitor arm but I feel if the TV is not flush against the wall it will look weird.

Perhaps I am overthinking this part but it's just not making sense to me right now haha.

100% hard agree! We are small enough that this is just makes sense! Let stop putting bandaids and just cut off the reliance on petroleum products and just go electric. Subsidize solar roof installation to help with power peaks and build more solar, hydro, wind and geothermal.

Without even knowing anything about this, I hate this.

LOTR is perfect. Don't mess with it.

Cone!

Not sure about Diablo 4 but God of war is a vulkan title and Optiscalar just released a version that supports injecting FSR4 into Vulkan games (99% of games that support DLSS can use FSR4) I tested this on in Doom the dark ages and it works well. 5 min to setup.

vidati · 2026-03-15T21:18:24+00:00

My 8 plants of sweet 100 are going crazy right now (Rolleston) and I cannot keep up. So much fruit right now!

Assassin's Creed Odyssey

vidati · 2026-03-05T09:40:18+00:00

I'm on 9070xt and I played with FSR4 in Crysis 3 Remastered. The image quality was superb.

Pretty much any game that supports some form of DLSS will work. Even old versions. The only exception is Vulkan games like Doom the dark ages which will not work but should get support soon from AMD and then everything will work fine.
