FishBulbia posted:steak, in most cases, is not worth the fuss people make over it The only bad steak-likers are the ones who think your manliness hinges on how low of a temperature you eat it at. I don't like well done steak that much either but I also don't like chewy raw cold meat. Medium rare (when you're at a place that can do it well) or medium (for when you're getting steak at applebees or something) is the sweet spot.

That steak should not be well done is the WASPiest of WASP idiocies.

I admittedly like blue steak, but the problem is that eating steak blue really reveals the quality of the meat, so a poo poo steak tastes extra poo poo. A poo poo cut of meat is better served by being cooked longer. 3D Megadoodoo posted:That steak should not be well done is the WASPiest of WASP idiocies. You would not believe how much I put the WAS in WASP. Irish, Scottish and English, plus the 1-in-3 chance that I've got Viking genetics that all English have, and I'd be incredibly surprised if there isn't some Dutch or German in there. I am faintly lumenescent in the dark.

phuo: It's not possible to conduct a civil conversation about steak. I have to wonder what the raw crowd will do with the next wave of fake meat. I'm not sure blue texture is their primary goal.

The problem with steakchat is that it gets caught up with how it's cooked, when the real insufferability is people who view steak as the apex of the culinary arts. Steak's good but I can't say I crave it like Hainese chicken rice or a good burger.

Oh god it just depends on the cut. Some cuts are generally at their best when well done*. If you don't like well done then don't get that cut. *Does NOT mean cooked to dryness.

I remember years and years ago, when they were first trying to figure out how to make money on the internet, there was this idea of micropayments. Like, if you wanted to read a magazine article online you'd pay like ten cents for it. Or if there was a popular blog, you'd pay like five cents to unlock each blog post. The basic idea being it would be all tiny little amounts of money you wouldn't mind paying, but it would add up for the provider. there are obvious drawbacks to that scheme, mainly how easy it would be to spend a ton of money without realizing it. But I gotta think it would be better than the current scheme, where every loving newspaper and website wants you to make an account and pay a loving monthly fee if you want to read a single article.

Other than WSJ and NYT, I don't recall many news sites charging before 2020. Many had started down the path of registration requirements above 3 per month or whatever, but it feels like the mad rush to full registration happened in the last two years. Maybe that was just chronological coincidence. I don't know if individual paywall sites are really gonna last. With advertising you have a hook to draw in a future customer; I still ignore most of that noise (if YouTube won't let me skip, and sometimes even when it does, I just check the commercial time and go do something else). Since ads turn me off, what does a news site have? A headline... "well I guess you don't want me to know your opinions since I can't read it", which isn't going to turn me into a customer. Unless they're winning Pulitzers, how is a potential customer going to know they "want" to be reading it?

I think most micropayment schemes evolved into in-app payments based around consumables and currency obfuscation, along with framework support of more traditional subscription models.

Steak is the most boring meat, worse than baked chicken breast, since it does worse with actual flavourings and summons far more assholes, and non-meats are almost universally better. Seafood is the only class of animal bits that are actually better than the equivalent with beans, tofu, pure veg, etc. Edgar Allen Ho has a new favorite as of 01:51 on Feb 18, 2022 |

I mostly eat veggies on account of my vegetarian wife, tofu is one of my favorite foods to cook with, and seitan is okay too with the right recipe But tempeh is straight up nasty There is no way to cook it that unnastifies it. The best you can hope for is to cover it up with other tastes and textures enough to not notice it

Tempeh used to be my favorite, it tastes like cardboard, but you can just go hard on sauce which made it tolerable. Once I hosed around with Tofu and Seitan enough to learn how to do em up well then they became the superior option.

Tempeh has a nice mushroomy dimension due to the rhizopus. Funnily enough, the fungus that ruins strawberries (and durian) is also a rhizopus. Great in one context, not great in another. But decay is also a bit of an acquired taste. I normally can't stand stinky tofu and rauchbiers but when I was functionally vegan because I was dating a vegan they absolutley hit that "good gamey meat more like horse or deer than lamb but on that spectrum" and "bacon!" respectively. I know stinky tofu isn't vegan but my partner at the time had no idea and no interest in eating it so it was a victimless crime.

I don't know a lot about tempeh other than how good it is and I'd certainly never heard of rhizopus (lol what a name for something edible). So, I like eating this creepy looking stuff? Anyway yeah, it is gamey! No wonder I like it so much.

Hipster_Doofus posted:Holy poo poo. I don't know a lot about tempeh other than how good it is and I'd certainly never heard of rhizopus (lol what a name for something edible). Well, that is the latin binomial. It has much more pleasant sounding names in places like Indonesia and southern China. Colonialism and Orientalism are a bitch and language and science are loving riddled with them like fleas. I really like mixed-fermentation products. You can buy Peuyeum started on Amazon. Chop up some cassava (purists say frozen pre-chopped cassava isn't as good and ... maybe? I can't really tell a difference) or put it on cooked rice. If you let it go for a little bit it is sweet and with juuust enough tartness to take the edge off. Like a pre-modern sweet-tart. If you let it go longer it becomes a complex, sour, slightly boozy drink. Great stuff.

What's more dogs are hyper-focused on their human friends*, and they really love training. Teaching a dog commands doesn't feel mean to them as long as treats and love come at the end. You owe it to your dog to give them all they need. Part of that is commands and praise. Semi-related: my partner fosters service puppies and one just graduated to go be a dog hero. I know you all love cute dog pics. Our baby just graduated and went to dog college to help people. So here's dog pics. I miss her.
