evobatman posted:The shittiest Technics SL-1210 Mk2 in the world. *Shines Bat Signal in the sky* Resident audiophile goon, I need your help! Picked this up at the swap meet today...   I plugged it in and to my amazement the lights came on. I put in a tape, and tested it and was shocked to see that everything is actually working. I buy old tape players all the time and their belts are always broken and they never work.  Wondering if I should replace my Teac double deck cassette player. It's 90's, has a shitload of features I don't know how to use. But this Sharp one here is so cool looking, simple, made in Japan. Only major downside is my component system is one stack, and the turntable has to go on top, and the Sharp is top loading. And I dont have much room.

strangemusic posted:These are cool and good! I bought one a while ago for wandering around and doing field recordings or other random projects involving sound where I couldn't tow my rack rig. Great little unit. My only real complaint is the ease with which the WAV/MP3 switch gets bumped and may try electric taping it to WAV. Really happy with everything else about it, so far.

ChocNitty posted:*Shines Bat Signal in the sky* That is an awesome looking tapedeck! Wish I could give you some tangible advice, but all I do is buy cool broken stuff, fix it up, play with it and then flip it because I don't have any room to keep it long-term either. What do you do with all the broken tape players you buy? I hope you fix them up and sell them on (with a profit) to someone who will give them a good home!

After almost a decade of being in a relationship with an Asian woman, we finally own an actual wok and the really long spoon that you typically use to stir stuff in a wok. No idea why it took us so long, my wife has been lamenting it for a couple years now.

I do the same thing, but probably to a much lesser degree. I can't do any real repairs. The best I can do is clean the battery acid and corrosion off the battery leads, which fixes a lot of them. I like finding them, cleaning them up, and if its better than what I have, I keep it, if its not, I sell it to someone who's using it to rediscover their tape or CD collection. I got a bunch of walkman and discmans i'm about to go through today. But I rarely find the crazy enthusiast audiophile stuff that you post. That stuff gets snatched up by people who are able to wake up at 6am on the weekend.

I use my wok to make curries. The shape aids in evaporation so it gets good and thick.

I bought these ramekins. I wasn't going to because they're "Pioneer Woman" brand and Ree Drummond is a creepy weirdo. But they're oven safe and a nice small size and look how cute

My Chinese in laws use a wok for everything that isn't a giant pot of soup (the ingredients for which are usually first cooked in a wok). There are lots of foods with special "wok flavor" you don't really do at home though.

I'd never heard of her before googling her just now, but apparently she made some headlines a few days ago. quote:In the middle of Season 2, Episode 3 of The Pioneer Woman, star Ree Drummond pulls a batch of "Asian hot wings" out of the oven, but her kith and kin wrinkle their noses at the sight of this game-day snack. One member of her crew asks, "Where are the real wings?" Another dude says, "I don’t trust 'em." Drummond laughs and says, "I'm just kidding guys, I wouldn’t do that to you."

I'd winkle my nose at bullshit game time wings made with anything but Luisiana style hot sauce and butter, too. loving commies, probably serving some bullshit varietal beer rather than a proper icy American adjunct lager, to boot. I just hate her writing, format, voice, familial ramblings, and another lovely celebrity product line. But those custard cups own and I want them.

Like <1min start to finish and aeropress totally cleaned with no grounds in the drain. I picked one up when they came out seven or eight years ago and honestly never really much cared for it over the french press.

Butch Cassidy posted:I just hate her writing, format, voice, familial ramblings, and another lovely celebrity product line. I had no idea about the wings-related story but her "cowgirl" schtick is annoying. Her website even has recipes sub-categorized into "cowgirl food" (dishes with vegetables) and "cowboy food" (MEAT). If you ever watch her show, the sheer awkwardness of supporting cast is pretty awesome though.

One of my former co-workers and I would watch her show over lunch since Food Network was always on in our break room, and anything involving her kids was so forced and awkward that it was laughable. Some of the food on that show looked pretty good though, but that might be my Midwest upbringing coming out.

If you're not making enough pizza to need a pizza stone, I don't want to be friends. Also, why would you put away a pizza stone? I have one in each of my ovens that stay there. They help regulate heat in the oven even if you're not using them.

My company makes pizza stones and accessories. The best thing to do is get a pizza stone and a metal screen. You put the pizza on the stone directly, then after a few minutes you slide the screen under to stop the bottom from cooking while the toppings still cook.
