  1. Tortilla press is worthless for the flour tortillas. You guys might be different than me but all of my “can’t get the thickness/texture I want” problems came from not working my dough enough. If you stick your finger into the ball, it should come out clean. I still am not good at rolling them round, but that’s just about applying even pressure and setting them down cleanly. Comal is much better than a skillet btw, the sides make it hard
  2. I suck at rolling them out still. They turn out round enough to use but rarely a perfect circle. That said, one thing I did that made me better was just light pressure with both palms on the rolling pin, not using the handles if you have one with handles. The handles are stupid.
  3. Yeah I’ve said a few times that they should have made a mini van but the idea of a Tesla sliding door for children is terrifying.
  4. oh shit it's for sale in Asheville. looks like it's dual speakers with each amp driving one speaker https://www.guitarcenter.com/Used/Matchless/2010s-DUAL-15-30-2010S-AMPLIFIER-Tube-Guitar-Combo-Amp.gc?cntry=us&source=4WWRWXGP&gad_source=1&gclid=CjwKCAjww_iwBhApEiwAuG6ccNcwWlmOI9M5DedZxc7RJn5IAoORLR05--si05rQ-bdJiuMQ7xYVaBoCFSIQAvD_BwE
  5. If you ordered directly from Matchless I'm certain they would do whatever you want. I think the whole operation is just Phil Jamison back there wiring up military grade amplifiers and then a couple of support and office folks. I can't find the picture right now but there's some monstrosity floating around that's like... two Matchless amps that were custom built into one cabinet. Super awesome, completely useless form factor that weighs 150 pounds.
  6. https://www.matchlessamplifiers.com/amp-visualizer man they dropped the orange, we could've been twinsies
  7. Fucking yes, knew I recognized this voice
  8. I hate to cite dunning kruger but if you’re very successful and have a cultish following of yes men you’re going to fall prey to that kind of thing bigly unless you are fairly wise and have strong character. Musk is deficient on both of those fronts, is way outside of his lane on everything, and thinks everyone else are the people who are wrong. It’s why he keeps doing stupid things but also why he keeps looking like an idiot in interviews or at the concert where he’s *not* surrounded by his people and he’s left hanging when he waits for approval of the stupid thing he just did. (say the line, Hayden)
  9. You can tell he’s a true engineer because he calls tweeting write actions.
  10. I was in fact still a burnt ends subscriber, was just having a hard time finding that on mobile while dealing with a 4 month old.
  11. Yeah I suppose he wouldn’t have VATS without a pip boy. Man I love the pip boy noises.
  12. I keep being afraid to open this thread because I'm enjoying this but it's slow going with my life these days. I think I'm up to the 4th episode now. Requesting that big spoilers or plot discussion gets spoilertagged for a bit longer at least. A nod to the videogames i enjoyed in the first shootout scene that i saw was the zoom/slow-mo effect. It took me a second to remember that that mirrors the VATS (vault-tec assisted targeting system) gameplay in the game. All this desert stuff, I hope I hear this song at some point
  13. caveat of I really didn't follow JTE's life and all the drama very closely so this is a general and not a specific comment but yeah, high maintenance drama is standard and there's a reason that al-anon and nar-anon (like AA or NA but for loved ones and codependents) exist
  14. good strategy for folks here as well
  15. I think the stupidest brand of stupid might be people who continue think that they are dunking on covid alarmism after over a million American deaths.
