  1. If you have a lidded pot that you don't mind getting dirty on outside, just put it in your smoker to render with your cook! Holding 250-300 for hours is going to render your tallow perfectly, and no need for any indoor cooking or smell.
  2. This is what mine looked like when done. I also used induction cooker overnight. Do this outside if you can, or leave your fume hood on, it can smell pretty bad for a while if the oil fumes permeate your house.
  3. Hublot x Nespresso. Yes you read that correctly.
  4. Just an FYI, Amex Platinum gives you Walmart+ free, and Walmart+ includes Paramount+ streaming.
  5. Three Body Problem was notable for being sci-fi with a hard grounding in science. Great books. The Expanse also wasn't bad - it wasn't trying to be hard sci-fi, but it avoided glaring issues.
  6. Mine just has photos of pulled pork.
  7. What did the fox say?
  8. I'd hope not, it's one of the only "OG SWA" things they have left.
  9. Actually never. It's sort of the whole reason I put a portion in funds, I don't want to know what it's doing, what it holds, what the value is. I check back maybe twice a year just to see total account value. I rebalance if it's out of balance. And then I forget it exists.
  10. Thanks Marvel. Not only do you ass up the movies, now you ass up watches also: https://www.audemarspiguet.com/com/en/watch/apxmarvel-spider-man.html

  12. I'll take you there. You're welcome.
  13. Sigh. We joke, but there is some systematic error in the English language education here in Thailand between the R and L sounds. We've tested with many of our Thai staff, if you write it the "other" way and ask them to pronounce it, they generally get the sound correct. Hence you write Rays and they pronounce Lays, you write Lays they pronounce Rays. We have not identified where the root cause is; one theory is that many teachers here are Filipino, and we suspect some systemic reversal of the two sounds in the way those teachers are being taught, so the teachers are learning wrong and then teaching wrong, continuing to propagate the issue.
  14. *in *a
  15. They're the perfect key fob for Hyundai! https://www.thedrive.com/news/how-thieves-are-stealing-hyundais-and-kias-with-just-a-usb-cable
  16. Cool story? Speaker is a ceiling penetration and certainly can have water leak around it.
  17. Holy fuck instant divorce right there.
  18. Meh, he only shot him in the buttocks, seems a reasonable trade for the last Hot Pocket.
  19. Long ago I told my wife to stop doing mine because she kept fucking it up. Too much soap, gave my skin itchy red patches, wrong temperature, damages colors, dries them too long, shrinking them, then leaves them in the dryer, wrinkling them. That said, I never understood doing laundry every day. Do it when you have enough for a full load, otherwise you just waste power and water and your own time.
  20. Just re-read All the Light We Cannot See. Jesus what a beautiful book.
  21. I'm with you here, and I've had some very good Wellingtons. Even a great one, I still think to myself "what a waste of a good steak and a good pastry crust."
  22. Narrator: she did not learn a life lesson.
  23. How are those Betabej Crujiente things in top right?
  24. You rang? I bring a variety for coworkers whenever I travel.
  25. Interstellar was marred by having the stupidest fucking robot design imaginable. Seeing this thing destroyed all suspension of disbelief; if you design a piece of key mission equipment like this you deserve for the mission to fail.
