Random thoughts that don't warrant a thread
dude is cashing off his name biggly. i was gifted some baby/kiddie books with his authorship on them... as dumb as baby books are, these are the absolute dumbest. https://www.barnesandnoble.com/b/contributor/jimmy-fallon/_/N-31j5

Homemade Pizza Tips...Just the Tips
batch #3 with new flour worked. this is the poolish preferment: 1:1 flour to water, a dash of yeast and little squirt of honey to give them an extra boost. they went wild and already formed this webbing. after mixing with final mixture, light kneading, and rest, the gluten allowed it to stretch into a smooth ball and the elasticity supported the rise to 2x the dough size. contrast it to this individual ball from batch #2 where the surface is rough because of lack of elasticity, and the yeast build up broke it into small pockets one stretch test final result: pie with some shallots, mozz, and nduja. now i dont have to buy the premade dough anymore.

While waiting for my focaccia dough to rise, I searched youtube to satisfy my curiosity about how commercial yeast is produced. This led to videos about microscopic yeast activity, and a science channel of other microscopic phenomena... ...and one thing after another, I discovered something I wish now I no longer know: the existence of fecal transplants.

NCAA FOOTBALL IS BACK MFers
BYU has a starting QB named Bear who will be throwing to his WR brother named Tiger. Both were committed/enrolled to Stanford and later transferred to BYU together. Disappointingly, their older brother, also NCAAFB athlete... is named just boring old Hank.

Trivial things that please the ever living shit out of you
the reason i was looking for it was to buy a replacement ipad for my kid. turns out, i had no idea amazon's price on this ipad literally just bounced from 399 to 489 from week to week? the fuck kind of strategy is this.

lmao... so i had $400 of apple giftcards i redeemed from amex points. turns out, once you close the amex account, you cant access redemption codes on their website. i printed out the codes once, but lost the paper. so in desperation i searched 'giftcards' in my googledrive to see if i saved a PDF copy. and in that process, i discovered i had a $500 hotels.com GC from 6 years ago (genuinely dont remember where it came from), and turns out its still active and valid. and for the apple card, amex was happy to issue a new physical ones sent to the mail. a $400 loss just turned into a net $500 gain.

nobody who designs this stuff has a fucking clue about user experience and flow. no quick button or shortcut to tag an email as spam or phish. right-click email --> scroll down to report --> select junk or phish --> pop-up confirms email has tag --> asks if i want to block sender --> get new email in inbox confirming and thanking me its been sent for quarantining. if you tag it as 'junk', it still gets sent to phish and the confirming email references 'phish'. also, both emails are moved to a 'junk' folder with an unread notification. what should happen is a 1-click action where the offending email disappears permanently off the face of the earth.- Trivial Things That Make You Surly
i understand if its rando external spam, with a clear incentive to keep you spammed. but this happened to me... with internal corporate mail!!!! asked the email authors: "how do i get off this list" --> "you have to ask IT to remove you" put in IT ticket for removal --> 1 week later: more spam from the same group.- Homemade Pizza Tips...Just the Tips
fucked up 2 batches of dough. it couldnt develop any gluten -- failed the windowpane stretch test. turns out, my flour was literally 2 years past expiration. apparently the protein loses its qualities and gluten cant form. we barely bake in this house and always assumed flour is long shelf stable. i was miffed because in all these youtube finfluencer videos, they can do no-knead preferment recipes where merely whisking together the preferment (poolish or biga) to flour mixture and letting it rest magically turns gives it balloon elasticity. will try again with batch #3.- Arch Manning: Scores every way possible

>hiring a bunch of hos claiming to be my sidepiece to piss my wife off for the last time.- What new UT gear are you looking to buy this year?
Its kinda ludicrous that UT is the most valuable collegiate brand in the world (measured in merchandise sales), which it rightfully protects through licensing, and yet ….buy 100 pieces of gear and it comes out in 100 different shades of orange. Shitty ass enforcement imo.- Random thoughts that don't warrant a thread
There's barely 1 or 2 companies making aftermarket stereo headunits retrostyled for a specific brand, typically Porsche. I always wondered, why doesnt one of these companies make a base head with interchangeable faceplace thats designed to look like BMW, Audis, Lexus, Honda, etc. Functionality remains identical. You can just change the colors and button shapes and fonts to match the broad aesthetics from those cars companies. Wouldnt that be a decent hit?- SEC Football : Any Given Saturday

I dont understand how that, instead of being a one-off occurence, it is now basically a permanent situation that Apple products are sold cheaper through 3rd party retail channels (best buy, amazon, costco, amazon, etc) than through the apple store itself. Also theres 4 different current lines of iPads and if you go through those stores theyre still selling new stock that are 2 or 3 generations old, so effectively there are like 8-12 different ipads.- 2021 UFC/MMA thread
Its a game of marginal positions. DDP was bridging and shrimping/bucking pretty well. Thats probably why Khamzat didnt want to posture up for bigger strikes and risk an escape. Dricus’ strength kept Khamzat from advancing further. It also likely explains Dricus’ gameplan: dont bite on level-change feints to preserve his own striking threat, out of the belief that he can escape from the ground and wear khamzat out. Problem was that came in the 5th instead of the 2nd or 3rd.- 2021 UFC/MMA thread
Dricus’ bull strength, cardio, and determination kept him from being submitted. You could see him start to turn the corner in the 5th but by then it was too late. That level of chain-grappling dominance we last saw in Khabib.- Formula 1 2025
His career earnings is roughly the same as the value of a mid pack team. That's excluding money from the wife. He probably would go in as minority owner and operator backed by wealthier partners. *** There are so many dimensions that define a good driver that can't be inferred from looking at race results alone. There's racecraft, tire management, driving in rain, etc, at which Hamilton has proved to be one of the all-time greats. A lot of results, even comparative team results, is skewed from luck and bad car-driver pairing. You can argue maybe that adaptation to different equipment is a requirement for talent, but there's countless examples in this and other sports that it can't just be the individual athlete alone. - Trivial Things That Make You Surly
