Every year once it gets too cold to use the grill I forget what using the grill is like. Christ, it's just *better* at cooking than a stove.
We got a new one and I've grilled everything since we got it. It's fast, it cooks evenly, it's much harder to burn things. I love steamed zucchini normally but I grilled some the other day and it was like a completely new food
The prep is simpler. We just cut them once lengthwise and lay them on the grill and that's it. You don't have to baby it, everything is tastier. It's criminal that this isn't available to everyone.
This should be the default way to cook food.
Not like a bourgeouise "everyone should have a bugatti, it's the only way to drive," no, I mean, as a person who is sad and anxious and time-pressed, it is very hard for me to make time to cook. The grill is so much faster and easier that my brain lets me do it.
It's harder to fuck up. You don't have to wash pans afterwards. Christ.

I now receive multiple shill offers daily. Most are "from" electronics "manufacturer" storefronts on amazon that likely do not exist as anything more than a sheet of paper in a government office in China and one of hundreds of rollstamps at a factory in Shenzhen.
I can't figure out the scam, honestly. I'm positive these "businesses" don't exist in any meaningful way - all the six-letter names you see on Amazon and Aliexpress cannot have staff and offices. There have to be millions of them, it's unthinkable.
so it turns out that the rubberized coating on the Latitude E6420 is not the only thing that high-test isopropyl dissolves. it strips the paint right off the plastic.
well, nothing to do but to do it
the upper 2" of paint are absolutely nuclear-grade. must be baked on there from years of heat, took as long to remove 1/3 of that part as it took to strip the whole rest of the thing
One of the folks on my patron discord was looking for someone to rip some Betacam tapes, and I have a deck just gathering dust, so they sent them over. Neither of us had any idea what was on them.

There are periodic title cards, so I know it's from 1991. If anyone recognizes the characters, lmk.
a thing that rocks about minidisc is that it was sold for long enough, and at enough different price points, that you can have whichever electronics aesthetic you want
