- Comment on I didn't realize masala, was spicy 1 day ago:
Garam in garam masala is a bit more like warming hot. It’s meant to stoke the digestive fire. So it’s more the hot of ginger or black pepper. When something is hot like capsicum, you’d hear it was teekhu. Garam masala isn’t one recipe of course, but you start to see the same herbs and spices being considered.
You can easily have a garam masala that has no capsicum in it.

High quality pasta tastes good without salt.
- Comment on Its all about bonding 3 days ago:
You’re mostly salting the surface when you salt at the table. If you salt the pot, the salt will dissolve in the water meaning it has an even distribution when it penetrate the pasta. Salting at the table means it will have saltier spots than others unless well tossed and tasted until even. But this only solves the distriution issue and not the penetration issue.
If you’re worried about wasting the salted water, you might get some milage with adding the pasta water to your sauce. In this case, using a smaller amount of water increases the starch to water ratio and reduces the total amount of water used. Carbonara used this approach while keeping it all in one pan.
Lightly salted pasta water, I feel, preserves the sweetness of the durum while still hiding the bitterness of the flour. Just my two cents.

So the material issue here is the picture must be taken of the physical check and the physical check must be producible for several months after the deposit. You can’t take a picture using the app of a picture of the check.

I’m going to outline this so everyone knows how this works in detail. There’s a number of comments talking about metadata, but this is remote check fraud.
The key dialogue is here:
"Okay the check will be written here then I’ll take picture of the check front and back then send it to you and you preview it on your laptop or iPad then you log in your bank app and take the snapshot to the provided space and you get the money"
Phase 1
- Fraudster sends an image of a check through e-mail
- You use your computer to view the check
- You then use your phone’s bank app to deposit the check
- Your bank is required by US Law to make up to $500 available immediately
Phase 2
- The fraudster makes an excuse of why they can’t do it any more or mentions that they over paid
- They ask you to send money through an untracable manner (Bitcoin, gift cards, etc)
- They may say something like you keep some for your effort or just lean on your kindness
- Your bank realizes that this check is fake or been used already
- You bank withdraws that amount from your account
This isn’t an unusual scam, but it’s technically illegal for you to deposit a picture of a check. You need the original.
Best to block and report them.

I tried to follow a link someone provided, but they wanted me to log in. Good for him doing the satire. Odd that he flaunts being a founder.
- Comment on No room for romance when there's rising and grinding to be had! 4 weeks ago:
Satire or not?
At first, I thought it was seething with satire. Rich wife having an affair with trainer while her husband is married to his work.
And then you see something like 3x founder. WTF is that. So I go to the website think it’ll be a joke website like Passive Income guy. Nope!
This shit is real. And this dude is the CEO.

“She pushed on my hips, an order that thrust me in. I entered her. Not only my prick, but the whole of me entered her, into her guts, into her darkness, eyes wide open, seeing nothing. My whole body had gone inside her. I went in with her thrusts and stayed still. While I got used to the quiet and the pulsing of my blood in my ears and nose, she pushed me out a little, then in again. She did it again and again, holding me with force and moving me to the rhythm of the surf. She wiggled her breasts beneath my hands and intensified the pushing. I went in up to my groin and came out almost entirely. My body was her gearstick.”

“Mr. Peanut was described by Michiko Kakutani in The New York Times as “a dark, dazzling and deeply flawed novel that announces the debut of an enormously talented writer”. It was named one of the best books of the year by The New Yorker, The Philadelphia Inquirer, The New Republic, and The Economist.”

I think in this case it’s colorism which predates racism and may go back to the caste system in the case of India. In many cases, colorism can be how internal racism is expressed, but Modi is hyper patriotic and loves a particularly conservative form of being Indian.
