what kind of bourgeoisie lifestyle do you live in where anything over $15 is an acceptable price for a meal? I eat bread and water and live with my parents and I save all the money to buy PLEX so I can sell it for ISK, working on my third titan right now AMA.

Has anyone here experimented with Kiwi? My grandmother uses it to tenderize beef very very quickly, perhaps 2 minutes. Any longer and it doesn't hold together. I'm wondering if there could be a way to apply it to steak, despite cuts usually being much thicker than Korean beef (Bulgogi)

Yep! It's awesome for that. Kiwi is a lot like pineapple and papaya in that it has an enzyme that breaks down proteins. (That's why people on pineapple farms have hosed up hands.) But like any other marinade, it only really hits the outside of it, unless you're using syringes to inject it inside the meat.

Lots of good lessons learned over the past month of bridging. I like to do it proper and provide the ride home, basically a blops at both ends of the trip. I lurk on comms and mostly post itt during ops. Another issue was Blops vs cyno balance and I think I have that figured out too. Not pictured is another main (and account) with a cloaky hauler to ferry topes, though I haven't run into a fleet so big that I didn't have enough in cargo.

The last time I've put all my mains to work at full clip was 2012, for C5 cap escalations.

I have half a mind to try blitzing DED sites with the Panthers when nothing's going on. They're not Sins but they have the 125 bandwidth for sentries.

You really shouldn't have to tenderize steak (unless maybe you're talking about flank steak)

on another note, I'm thinking space truckers must all be loving insane. I'm about 8 jumps into a 26 jump route in a 2 AU/s battleship and I'm ready to start punching myself in the balls. Do people actually have the patience to two box a freighter and a web alt for hours on end doing nothing more than align > web > jump ad nauseum?

According to my grandmother, sometimes Korean restaurants will use kiwi to soften tough, lower grade meat. So I was just curious, I mean I forget the going rates for beef, but if you could take a cheap cut and turn it into something incredibly melty tender for the price of a kiwi :shrug:

Just curious.

I feel like safe destructing takes too long for no reason. Just undock and warp/cyno where you shouldn't go.

Unless you're the kind of person who doesn't want to give others a killmail. :lol: if that's the case.

Your goal is to have the ship blown up for insurance isn't it? Then does it really matter who opens the cyno for you, as long as they're waiting with a fleet to blow you up?

IMO the best would be a series of one-off storyline missions that reward you with levels of certain skills or something, so a new player could roll around, learn mechanics, and come out being able to fly cruisers decently

That's what career missions are for. HAHAHA DISREGARD THAT, I SUCK COCKS

We could have something similar to epic arcs but with a more skill-focused bent, or perhaps the devs could add skill training components to faction warfare missions?

edit to add: My corp could soon have a cadet program to help fresh-faced noobs (who don't meet the entry requirements but want to join us) skill up and prepare themselves for the big bad universe of EVE. I've already taken one noob under my wing, getting him to polish off the Gallente career missions before he can start on learning how to rat, how to mine, do PI, survive, evade, all the skills a noob needs to scale the learning cliff. If CCP doesn't introduce more learning-type missions beyond the careers and opportunities, that responsibility will fall into the hands of player corps.

Introduce skill point losses to all capital and larger skills. Perhaps 20% of a skill level's SP is lost upon death, rather than a whole skill point level, just because the training time compared to T3 subsystems i much longer and then introduce a skill point harvest system for the killer where 90% is distributed, and the other 10% is burned.


So somebody getting popped in a Naglfar who has Minmatar Dreadnought V goes down to 4.8, the killers then get 0.18 of the SP divided amongst them.


gently caress caps, is what I'm saying.

Ugh, coffee talk, my weakness. Now I'm gonna have to read a Dephyrine post.

So, first off, cinnamon is extremely hydrophobic; it doesn't absorb water. (After all, it's the dried-out bark of a tree. Its entire purpose is to repel excess water.) So that's not your problem.

As for why you're just noticing this -- there are different grades of cinnamon. Not only are there different grades of quality, but there's also six different species of tree commonly referred to as cinnamon, and they have significantly different textures and flavors. Chances are, your original jar of cinnamon was Ceylon cinnamon (C. verum), and your new jar is Chinese cinnamon (C. cassia). I keep both in the house -- Ceylon is better for coffee and cold desserts, Chinese is better for baking.

Please don't put cinnamon in your coffee grinder. I'm assuming you've got a proper conical burr coffee grinder; it'll gently caress that poo poo right up. (If you're talking about some sort of whirly blade grinder, then it won't damage it, but please don't use whirly grinders for coffee. They produce really insistent grind which means inconsistent extraction which means terrible coffee.) Use a dedicated spice grinder, or just hand chop it with a knife.

Great, you shamed me into grinding my french press beans with my burr grinder this morning. OF COURSE there were scads of web sites with helpful suggestions of which precise setting is perfect on my Baratza :psyduck: Coffee nerds...

But yes, its good
