Graphite is conductive, so galvanic corrosion would make sense. There's a funny problem with carbon bicycles. If you don't use carbon paste in the joints from CF to alloy, they can weld themselves to each other, or you may break the CF trying to tighten it enough to hold (before it welds itself). CF paste has a grit and a dielectric to solve both.

That's the branding. "The Actual Black Burger" and similar, there are 8 different ones I think. Most veggie burgers are highly processed with a bunch of added shit. So while it's obviously still nutritionally better than cow, it's not great. These are just real veggies, shredded and pressed. I've had two, one was great, and one I would never eat again. However, everyone else loved that one. It was the Actual Purple, which is beet based. I found that it tasted like dirt and nothing else, everyone else liked it. The other one I had is the black, and it is awesome. It has a slight Mexican-ish flavor but not so much that it's obvious. A great way to consume hot sauce and/or some good stone ground mustard. I found it at Fry's (Kroger) in the frozen foods, in between the breakfast stuff and some of the other meat alternative products. A pack of six was $11 with their loyalty card discount, so a pretty good value. I think non-loyalty price was $13. https://actualveggies.com/products/the-actual-black-burger-4-pack

Javelina eggs in AZ. Sold in most Fry's/Kroger stores ready to grill.

Yeah, retained moisture is my assumption here. Like leaving a piece of wood, or even heavy sawdust, on a cast iron machine table when it rains.

This reads like it's from The Onion. I feel really retarded that I seriously considered that CA might be looking after an actual meaningful problem.

You're going hogging? Feral hog bacon should be fine, and is free outside the ammo and travel. I haven't read the law so I don't know what it addresses, but considering the amount of neurotoxins and metals being found in animals recently, this could actually be one they accidentally got right. Also, lead in lipstick, well beyond any reasonable limits. I've cut back on the packing materials, bacon, and cosmetics so I can keep the beer. Not sure what the plan is on air and water. INTRODUCTION N-nitrosamines have been found in air, water, foods, cosmetics, tobacco, and packing materials (1). N-nitrosamines have been an issue due to nitrite which was added to prevent the growth of Clostridium botulinum in processed meats. For this reason, high concentrations of nitrosamines have been reported in bacon, sausage, and ham in high rate (2), while meats that did not go through processing showed low, if any, amount of nitrosamines. N-nitrosamines were also reported in salted fish, beer, and water (3).

Hockey Stick bag for Discrete Rifle Carry

What ever happened to a good old traditional violin case?? -
No, Samsung. It's a Samsung problem, AGAIN. The Pixels are over half Samsung made, as are those car and wearable chips. Check for an update for your phone before disabling a useful feature though. This attack can conceivably be carried out on the VoLTE connection too, but that's far harder. There's also a problem with Pixel phones and their built-in markup tool. This is retarded, so when I say this, you may think I'm exaggerating. Until recently, any screenshots you took and covered info you didn't want seen, could be "unedited" and the info visible. LOL.

Instant Pot - healthy recipes
SwampNut replied to Nova Scotia Mike's topic in Diet & health exchange
There's a 15-bean blend available at Kroger and probably other stores, that is about 1.4 pounds. Two onions is perfect for this, and then whatever mild spices you'd like. It's really tasty. -
Instant Pot - healthy recipes
SwampNut replied to Nova Scotia Mike's topic in Diet & health exchange
Any sort of bean stew is an obvious thing. I don't work from recipes really, but a go-to process: Pre-soak beans of course. Put it on sauté and put in 1-2 onions. Get them nicely browned and soft. Add garlic for one minute. Add spices and mix in. Add in beans and enough broth to cover them, plus a little more. Well soaked beans don't need a lot more. Do 25-ish minutes on high pressure, natural release, then switch to slow cook and simmer them for a few hours. You will have very tender beans with very little gassiness. Spices? Go wild. Mexican pinto beans or Colombian small red beans. Love the red beans. Epazote, if you have it, is key for South American beans. White beans and Italian spices are great. You can also add potatoes to this for a good stew. Serve any of the above over rice. Also these will keep for over a week easily, in the fridge. -

10:00 breakfast was a papa rellena, croqueta, and some pastry thing with an unknown savory filling. I'll go home 8 pounds heavier and feeling like shit with all the salt and crap. At least with everyone being on Cuban time, I don't have to change time zones. -
That's a great point.

In AZ, a boat is not a vehicle and it all goes via Game and Fish, so no idea how you deal with that here. The trailer is MVD (vehicle) though. I think in CA boats are done at DMV? -

I've done it before, you are correct. Though I don't know if it's two years, or not, but the rest is accurate. Level 1 inspection, bond, registered letters to last known address, etc. -

Oh great, another top quality tool brand to lust over! Thanks!

You'd think, but most "trainers" and fitness "experts" do recommend combining them. I'd say the majority of advice to lose weight is to do both. There's also the fact that athletes in ketosis can perform ok. But intermittent fasting probably isn't enough to be ketogenic. Today we have our semi-monthly whisky tasting, so I'll eat around 1, and possibly a few bites of something after the tasting, about 4pm.

Absolutely complete failure. Not compatible with exercise, even a bit. Now, we did go on a harder than usual single-track, but my brain ran out of thinking juice three miles in and I crashed. Could have been worse, I landed in an Ocotillo instead of a Saguaro or jumping cactus. Or the other option, continuing off the cliff. It fucked the ride completely and we turned back. On the other hand, it was an off day for all of us. We don't know why. One of my usual riding partners kept getting stuck on hill climbs and she's usually just powering up everything, at 120 pounds. Another kept sticking on technical rocky shit he's good at. Dunno. Mars in retrograde? But I am WIPED the fuck out, feel terrible. Got dizzy and nauseous. One of the nutritionists I follow says that weight loss/calorie restriction are one thing, and exercise should never be mixed with it.

SwampNut replied to SwampNut's topic in Diet & health exchange
One easy option is simply canned low-salt beans and hot sauce. Also canned low salt corn, bagged microwave rice, and things like that are tools I rely on for travel. The really hard travel for me is with people, who often want to go out to eat, and it's usually junk. I think I ate more grease and salt during NeXXt than I do all year. Spice it up with a tortilla, guac/avocado, some beans, and some hot sauce. Quick nutrition, not terrible. -
A bunch of anecdotal emails is not "over 1000 case studies" nor is it "data." This should not be used as medical advice or guidance. And the Vitaspace web site looks like it was made on Myspace in 1998. Also, a paper form you can mail or FAX --FAX-- to order? WTF. Credibility 0. I would urge caution.

Using your phone's microphone to measure belt tension

SwampNut replied to SwampNut's topic in Diet & health exchange
Hahahaha, now she's proactively bringing me recipe ideas. There's nothing quite as motivating as making your body work better through real nutrition, and then having it taken away. This happens to me every time I travel, and reminds me to do better. -
In October is all we have right now. Will probably nail down some dates in the next month or so. Also I learned that Southwest won't let you book or even view flights more than six months in advance. The place is actually in Hayesville, which I think is just a couple hours from you. Believe me, you'll get a PM and address when I know the details.

Using your phone's microphone to measure belt tension
SwampNut replied to SwampNut's topic in The Garage
Pretty sure it would be one of those 0.01% tolerance kind of things. At some level of accuracy, absolutely everything needs to be accounted for including the phase of the moon, which would pull the belt in different directions. Entropy at its extremes is a real bitch.
