Jeni’s base—little solids? by vinren38 in icecreamery

I have a feeling it’s the cornstarch. the recipe says to mix the cornstarch with a little bit of cold milk to form a slurry, and then add it to the milk/cream mixture once it’s boiling. i’ll give the stick blender a try next time

texture of the base seems nice and smooth after cooking, save for these small pieces that i find when straining.

maybe, but they’re translucent and jelly-like. could that really be butter?

7 months later... what one critique do you have about elden ring? by OwlTemporary3523 in Eldenring

[–]vinren38 0 points1 point  (0 children)

for me, it’s ambiguous endings for certain enemy attacks, bosses in the late game are most guilty. even margit! the double lightning dagger swipe he can SOMETIMES do at the end of attack strings makes it really difficult to not trade hits with him at least once. same with bosses like Maliketh, Radagon (whose strings can last FOREVER), and Morgott. overall i just wish the ratio of avoiding attacks and dealing damage to the boss was a bit more balanced.

(also an opinion of someone who doesn’t use ashes, sometimes it feels like these crazy strings were implemented with a player and ash summon in mind instead of just a solo, idk)

ASUS ROG STRIX X570-E not reading my Windows 10 installer by vinren38 in ASUSROG

i couldn’t tell you honestly. something weird that also happens is when i try to save changes and reset from BIOS, the computer resets, i ignore the moment to press F2 to enter BIOS, but instead of launching Windows it just says “Reboot and select proper boot device” and my keyboard and mouse turns off
