I'm not saying we shouldn't have safe drinking water provided to us by our municipal water supply.

What I am saying is that between the choice of purchasing expensive bottled water which this article and others say is effectively contaminated, is horrible for the environment, and largely comes from the same supply as municipal water does, vs purchasing a point of use filter system which can remove most harmful thinks in tap water, you will largely come out with better water for less money in the long run, with a point of use filter.

You are also doing better for the environment by doing that and getting a reusable bottle to take it with you. If you are worried about water on the go, look at something like a grayle travel filter or one of the other options out there already.

A large number of inexpensive and effective filters exist already. This is a problem you can already solve for yourself.

What is your rotisserie setup? Do you like it? The food looks money, nice work!

The smell never goes away

If it was setup properly, you just us an if statement like, "if communication lost to control for t>5 seconds, release balast" or something like that. I had 0 issue with the controller being an ots consumer good. The rest was an idiotic design, I won't even say it was engineered.

I always knew Blackstone was up to something, that's why I bought a camp chef griddle.

Same. Its so nice for consistency. I also keep a basic knife sharpener in my cooking bag.

Not the review I was hoping for. I loved the original and was getting excited about this one being released.

Buy a proper instant read meat thermometer and learn about carryover heat. Seriously, just cooking meat to where it needs to be and no more makes such a difference when cooking.

Along with that, learning when things need to be cooked to higher temps for structural reasons.

Finally, learning how to get good browning or crust formation. Its all prep and heat control but damn a steak with a good crust is life changing.

Its got some older fiberglass in the attic but it needs to be replaced as well since it is mildly compacted. Trees are in the plan too but that is waiting on the soil to recover a bit and the temps to drop off. Solar is a long term goal for cost and backup power but that may be a next house thing depending on how long we stay here.

I know where the losses are, the house and windows are from 1980 and there is a sunroom on the house that are just huge heat sinks. We are just waiting on funds to correct that stuff. We had some awesome shade trees but they were Ash trees and fell victim to beetles and disease so we had to have them removed so they didn't fall on the house.

We added a radiant barrier when the roof was redone in 2016. The ceiling penetrations were all sealed and all the can lights were replaced with sealed LED fixtures.

The ac is a newer variable speed high efficiency one with new ducting that was installed 3 years ago and other than needing a minor room rebalance made a big different in our electric bill.

Between 14.7 and 15.4c / kwh. Gexa in Texas. My last bill was $285. We have a gas stove, water heater, furnace, and dryer. Our gas bill is about $50/mo. The lowest our electricity goes is about $90 in the winter.

I have been with my wife since 2009 and I have still never been able to convince her to learn how to a drive manual transmission.

Drive failure in the 00s was really common. I lost 2 or 3 separate drives from different mfg over the course of a couple years. Newer drives are better but even in modern nas setups, I planned on losing at least 1 drive per year on a 4 drive nas even fresh out of the box.

Always keep data your care about in at least 3 places and in at least 2 different mediums with one preferably offsite. I like to have one drive in use, one backup that sync's daily, and one that I keep in cold storage unplugged. Then swap the sync drve and cold storage drive every so often.

Hell, I'm a cishetwhite guy and I feel like they are trying to drive me out too.

Part of it is because our congressional districts are drawn like a bowl of spaghetti. In statewide elections it matters less but congressional districs were specifically drawn to pack and crack votes here.

It would be funnier if there wasn't a sizeable percentage of people who support the cheetoh. There is still a real chance of that demented racist pos winning come november.

I picked up a 5 v a couple months back because nothing else fit in that niche. Its a damn good phone. Only thing missing for me is a removable battery. I'd like a slightly smaller size overally but compared to everything else in the market, its small already.

Boss makes a thousand, you make a buck.

Go steal the catalytic converters off the company truck.
