Successfully got an eyeroll from the missus, two thumbs up.

Russian dressing > thousand island

Really put the BS in “Bachelors of Scientology”

Maybe Girls Last Tour?

I think it’s some type of MLCC. If you look up variations of this inverter board, some have two MLCCs in the same location labeled C7 and C8. I know that some MLCCs can fail catastrophically if they crack and short circuit, may be what happened to yours.

If it’s part of an LC circuit the capacity and ESR will be important to match, but if it’s only a filter capacitor, you can typically drop in a high value cap to replace it without worrying too much about matching the values. Of course you’ll want it to be rated for the voltage and temp.

I try to upvote important news, but I’m having trouble assigning any sort of positivity to this one. Ugh we’re turbo doomed

That’s an amusing article, but I wonder why is the link to an American small-town newspaper site covering a German hobby?

I feel like we’re close to an event similar to the times Russia has shot at civilian airliners.

I thought the pencil had the lead.

I know someone who went through an abusive childhood and suffers from complex ptsd. They recently started anti anxiety medication and that has helped temper their fawn/freeze fear response, but it they still live with it.

The biggest surprise for them was that everyone else wasn’t plagued with the same constant fear and anxiety, always trying to placate everyone to avoid confrontation.

This sounds more like PTSD to me, relating to familial abuse.

Mieruko-chan was pretty good, funny and spooky. A little bit hornier than I was looking for, but not too ecchi.

Mushishi isn’t outright horror, but some of the plotlines are so unnerving they live with me rent-free.

I just poked around YouTube and it seems pretty common. This short has two guys saying it the way I do: https://youtube.com/shorts/hbU9NOvOUik

I’ve never paid mind to it, but I think I pronounce it like you do. If I focus on not hitting the sh sound it sounds English, my normal accent is West-coast American.

Straw, strength, strip, all of those words I place a blending sh sound before the tr sound. If anything it might sound closest to ‘schrawberry’.

Interesting! I’ll pay attention to how others say it going forward.

I now know to read this comic in a British accent. YesIknowtherearemanyaccentsintheUK

Wet before with cold water. The missus uses warm water because she has sensitive teeth, but she wets after the paste.

Also, just spit after, no rinsing the mouth.

It looks like they swapped columns and rows for the bar/psi ratings. I would like to see tires inflated to 29 bar haha

The can of tomatoes has chunks of garlic. We were out of garlic when we made it, but turned out fine.

I’m a garlic fiend too, don’t get me wrong.

I’ve been on a bean kick since I found bags of 15 bean soup mix for less than $3. The creamy large Lima beans are my fave. I toss the ham flavor in the trash and make a batch with whatever I have on hand. The following batch was my favorite so far:

• 20 oz 15 bean soup - soaked overnight
• Two small white onions - diced and browned with a pinch of salt and sesame oil
• Eighth red cabbage chopped and browned in a skillet
• 2 celery stalks diced
• 6oz crimini mushrooms coarsely diced and browned - finely dice stems
• 6oz white button mushrooms coarsely diced and browned
• 1/4 cup textured veggie protein
• 1 heaping tbsp chili powder
• 1 can fire roasted diced tomatoes with garlic
• 1 tsp salt
• 2 tsp potassium salt
• 1 tbsp MSG
• Half tsp cracked black pepper
• Half tsp garlic powder
• Half tsp paprika

The biggest thing to remember is to make sure that you get the rehydrated beans in a good boil for at least 10 minutes to denature the toxic proteins, otherwise you’ll have an upset stomach.
