I prefer left burner as a right handed person. Not too sure why. Maybe because I lift pans with my left hand typically, so the handle is over the counter instead of the rest of the stove.

Is midnight 0:00 as well? So two 0:00 on a 24 hour system?

You can get dog food for $1 a can? Please let me know where, best I can find is $3.
- Comment on Realistically, what do people plan to do on the Moon and Mars that requires a permanent, or long term human presence there? 3 weeks ago:
What better place to do all of the dirty work like mining and refining from asteroids that have a ton of metals and resources, then just send the finished product down to earth. No more mining our unique and delicate planet and polluting it.
- Comment on According to the New York Times, Game of Thrones is the 6th best TV show of the 21st century 3 weeks ago:
I’m curious how they made the list… It couldn’t have been just some intern / writer putting down their top 100? There had to be some sort of stats involved no? Like number of people watching? Number of weekly watchers? Impact on online discussions? I don’t see what state it could have been which would have ignored so many other shows.

And then sue the shit of them whenever they implement it without realizing its patented.
- Comment on Microsoft patent describes in-game advertising triggered by boss fights, loading screens, and cutscenes 4 weeks ago:
Wait, someone should make a gaming organization that just thinks of the most outlandish and ghoulish things to patent them so the big corpos can’t.
- Comment on Ubisoft begin removing Ubisoft Connect from Steam with the new Ubisoft Connect Services 5 weeks ago:
The videogame industry specifically is a bit unique I think I’m that most of the time the majority of the artists just get laid off after a large project gets released so there really isn’t any job stability, chance of bonuses, loyalty, etc.
I would never pirate an Indy game but Ubisoft, EA, rockstar, fuck em.
- Comment on Ubisoft begin removing Ubisoft Connect from Steam with the new Ubisoft Connect Services 5 weeks ago:
The artist still got paid for their work. They don’t get a bonus if more copies are sold. The only one not getting money is Ubisoft corporate executives and shareholders.
- Comment on Why are lemmings so touchy about downvotes? 1 month ago:
I hate Facebook and Instagram so much because you can’t really “dislike” a comment. It’s how these stupid echo chambers happen because people only see how many people like their point of view, they don’t see the thousands that think they are a fucking idiot.
- Comment on Min wage in most states is so sad 1 month ago:
As if they aren’t already bought. At least you’ll have one of your own elevated and not some already rich asshole trying to get richer.
- Comment on Tasty! 1 month ago:
I love how men just make fun of themselves and admit they are incompetent at surviving with any decent quality of life without a “woman” in the kitchen.
I consider myself fucking shit at cooking compared to my mum but God damn people it’s not that difficult.
- Comment on Minimum wage isn't survivable anymore 1 month ago:
Just bought my 30 year old home last year. Have made quite a few upgrades so far because it was necessary but as far as “general” maintenance goes it’s been pretty negligible. Of course replacing a roof is a shit ton of money but when you only need a new one every 30 years that $20,000 bill can be spread across 360 months for a total of $55 a month. You just need to be knowledgable enough to know what the maintenance costs and account for it ahead of time not last minute after you have already been greedy and spent all the money you collected the past 30 years.
- Comment on Minimum wage isn't survivable anymore 1 month ago:
I never understood landlords like that. Maintenance isn’t too difficult or too expensive barring pretty extraordinary circumstances.
Put in like $200-$300 a month worth of maintenance and you could eventually charge $400-$500 a month more in rent.

So wouldn’t you weigh the tomatoes after they have been boiled down?
- Comment on 1 month ago:
Wait, how do you have 148g of tomatoes for every 100g of sauce?
- Comment on It's never been about helping people 1 month ago:
Yes that is annually but post says “permanently” which I take to mean for multiple years not annually.
- Comment on It's never been about helping people 1 month ago:
Yeah $16k annually sounds about right. But they say “permanently” which I read as $16k total not annually.
- Comment on It's never been about helping people 1 month ago:
Permanently house and feed someone? $16,000 seems quite a bit too low. That might cover food alone I would imagine, depending on the person’s age. More so if it’s like a 30 year old less so if they are 60.
- Comment on The Woke Veggie Tale Leftists Won't Tell You About This One 1 month ago:
How do they determine the beginning of a river? Should it be the furthest point of something? Why isn’t the Missouri River the “Mississippi” and the remaining portion of the Mississippi north of that junction the Missouri instead?
- Comment on google's getting pissy about using their shit while logged out 2 months ago:
They probably don’t care if you use a different service if you don’t log in to use theirs. If you don’t log in they can’t easily monetize you by tracking your data and building a portfolio. Otherwise you use their resources at a cost and they don’t make money.
So threatening to leave for other services isn’t exactly a threat.
- Comment on An impossible choice 2 months ago:
I would have to put it away in some locked account that only pays interest each year and doesn’t let me have any access for like 20 years. Otherwise it would be gone in 4 months.

I don’t mind it as long as they do something like italics and little music notes or either end
- Comment on Sony doubles down. Only responds to their investors, not the consumers. I've never bought a digital console title. That will continue. 2 months ago:
I built my first PC 6 years ago, before PS5 was released.
My PC can still play new release AAA games at high quality graphics and probably will for a number of years still… when it starts to slack a couple hundred $ and it will be good as new.
Was pricey up front but in the end better quality, more choice, and longer lasting.
- Comment on Only boomers can use this bench. Meanwhile, they're trying to get rid of their own property taxes. 2 months ago:
In the area I live in there’s a lot of places 55+ so it limits the amount of housing in the city available to working class people and those trying to raise families, increasing their housing prices. The community has a lot of old folks.
- Comment on Only boomers can use this bench. Meanwhile, they're trying to get rid of their own property taxes. 2 months ago:
The 55+ areas where I live are generally little rancher communities or apartments, some are low income type apartments but many are also luxury type apartments.
I could understand if the apartments or ranchers were built with accessibility in mind like shower bars and taller toilets, etc.
But mostly it’s just because they don’t like screaming children playing in the neighbourhood.
- Comment on Only boomers can use this bench. Meanwhile, they're trying to get rid of their own property taxes. 2 months ago:
Where I live they also have housing exclusive to 55+ so it’s much cheaper since there’s a smaller market for them.
Ruins the housing economy and then holds some that’s only available for themselves for cheap while they downsize for a massive nestegg.
