Nope, it's a pressure cooker, the cooking vessel is air-tight. My favourite recipe is to use 1:1 rice to water ratio and the adjust the time depending on the rice. For example, white rice takes 5 minutes, basmati 6, brown 30(!). When i

Yeah, I demand more info about the mop from the OP. What model do you have and are you completely satisfied? I was under the impressionthat most of wet mop models just smear dirt everywhere instead of really cleaning a dirty floor.

I get your point, but what I am saying is that if you are not careful, you can easily overheat empty teflon-coated pan on an induction stove and create toxic fumes, no oil required. And you don't even have to forget about the pan. Just

The Ubuntu ad is mostly about emotions. The main message is `sudo apt install btop`. But most people who use Linux already have this htop replacement installed.

I believe including diagrams for the ease of repair was actually quite common back then before all production was heavily automated and moved overseas.

Yeah, my 2011 Kindle 3G needed a new battery, but otherwise, it's still as good as new. Were the quality standards just different back then?

How's the battery life after so many years? I recently found my old e-reader (Kindle Keyboard) from 2011 and the first thing I had to do was swap a new battery in, the old one would not hold a charge for too long.
