They should all be 165° for food safety’s sake when it comes to ground beef. You can play around with a steak’s temperature becuause any bacteria are on the surface and not ground into the meat, though that’s becoming less true with tenderizers being used on steaks.
YMMV, of course.
They want their cake and eat it too. Selfish pricks.
Sure bud. I’m not here to drive 9 hours and two states over to pick up something I need, if that’s even an option, just to satisfy whatever BS arbitrary metric you have in your head.
Because Amazon wiped out what Walmart and other big box stores didn’t kill in the first round. Sometimes there’s literally no place else to get what I need, not even order it in to a local store. On top of that, Google search for products is so wrecked that the choices it returns are amazon links, or links to websites that also provide amazon links to the same products. It’s fucked up.
(FWIW I do buy local or direct from businesses other than Amazon when possible, but it’s simply not possible all the time)
Yes, this is ridiculous. My last iphone lasted 6 years, I bought one of those kits to DIY replace the battery at about year 4 to get more time out of it before I traded it in. 2-3 years means you’ve likely just paid it off for only a year before buying again.
I’d argue that the Millennials did have it bad. They got told they’d have the traditional path, then got shat on by boomers constantly telling them it was their fault for not succeeding because “avocado toast” and “Starbuck’s coffee”. Meanwhile the boomers kept yanking the rug out from under eveyone with boom-bust recessions while saying “oh, that just happens every “x” years” while pillaging the economy by deregulating and consolidating. The milennials got lied to, hard. Generations after them had the “benefit” of knowing they were already fucked.
100%
I’m Gen X and starting to see a lot of the boomer “uphill both ways to school in the snow with no shoes” bullshit from Gen X. STFU you asshats. My generation simultaneously says it had the greatest time and then turns around and whines about whatever manufactured hardship they come up with when talking about outher gens.
Yeah, we DID and DO have the best of both pre- and post-tech worlds, we arguably had the last shot at the traditional school, college, walk-in-your-resumee career, then buy a home, and the generational motto is “fuck you” if anyone even remembers us, but siddown. Don’t turn into our parents, you assholes.
Like an executive will be driving himself anywhere.
Lol.
Arctus = “Bear”, Anti = “against” in ancient Greek, or “opposite” in modern meaning.
Arctic = bears are here
Anti-arctic = opposite bears, or “no bears”.

Back when you could write your own savefile names i‘d cadge together some shorthand for the filename to help: sdqstswordgetthing.sav or some such. “Side quest to get sword get the [item] next on the list.”
They’ve been saying the “bubble is going to burst” for a while now. If they keep saying it eventually they might be right. Then everyone will jump up and down trying to claim they were the ones who rightly predicted it. A quick search by date shows plenty of articles discussing the AI bubble from 2025, 2024, and even a rare few from 2023. Three years of doomsayers waters it down to meaninglessnes even if they‘re eventually right.
My friend, we’re all wired a little differently. Sometimes that wiring shifts by the day, or if our social battery is used up, or if we’ve been burned a lot. Also, of you’ve got AuDHD it can potentially make you suspicious because you have a hard time picking up any cues regarding the praise to tell if someone is bullshitting you or not. And yeah, praise can be awesome, as long as it’s from a trusted source.
They’re conveneint to charge you with.
Damon looked like he had a blast.
Hard to believe the letters associated with numbers on a phone numeric keypad is becoming uncommon.
