I do. Usually I’m cooking rice as a component of a meal. So I’m already at the range cooking other things and I can’t leave to do something else anyway. Since I’m already there, I may as well set a timer for 20 minutes to let the rice cook.

Actually, paying with cash is a great way to avoid tipflation. Tip if you like, whatever amount you feel is an appropriate employment subsidy for the service rendered, but you won’t be awkwardly forced into it by an iPad.

Are you saying that US homes “rarely, if ever” have grounded receptacles? That’s not correct. All construction since the late 50s or early 60s require grounded receptacles.

The first point you’ve extracted is too narrowly focused. I’m not OP but I believe they were making a general point about increasing automation, not a specific point about driverless cars. I agree with everything the OP has written. I had a

SQLAlchemy is one of my favorite libraries of all time. I actively choose Python for projects because I get to use it. If you’ve never used this ORM you don’t know what you’re missing. And I say this as someone who for years actively campai

Parents of one of the victims of the recent elementary school shooting in Uvalde, Texas are attempting, or preparing, to sue the gun manufacturer of the semiautomatic rifle that was used in that event. Will they sue, will they win? I don&#x

On of the best "third place" locations I've had was a gym as well. This was about 15 years ago, before iPhones and Airpods, etc. existed, or were as prevalent, so it was easy and common for gym regulars to strike up conversat

It’s a common talking point in the US that the second amendment was written in a time when the most powerful guns were rifles that shot balls which took tens of seconds, at best, to reload. That the authors of the right to bear arms weren’t

Check out “The Tiger Hunter.” I watched it on Netflix a while back. It’s a comedy but it fits some of what you’re looking for. And it’s a great movie.
