Damn, that’s a pretty good idea I never thought of cutting up the meat and then browning the ends.

I’ve marinated meat and due to allergies I don’t use much dry spices due to cross contamination. The more I’ve seen and thought about the whole slow cooking large cuts of meat the more appealing it is. I want so bad to get a small smoker but I just haven’t found one yet. Funny enough I cooked a Chuck roast yesterday. Pressure cooker though with carrots and green beans. Black berries for fruit.

Keep it up! I dig the meals and ideas I gain from seeing what all you put in it. I am more amateur chef than anything so any and all ideas help me learn versatility.

Geez that’s insane. That’s food for a few people for days maybe. You have so much more room to do activities too. Kabobs or veggies. Throw some corn or something to fill in a little more space. Maximize potential. I love pork shoulder. Brisket too. Looks good. Almost as if you marinated the shoulder.

This 1000 times… This. People are so careless it’s disgusting.

How long do HDDs last though? I’ve got some from 2015 to 2018 manufacture date. Seems dated and old.

There’s always this guy. Lol

Makes you feel tidy, visually less cluttered, it’s a great small action to do to warm up your mind in the morning that won’t aggravate you to stir your brain awake. It just feels good to have a nice made and good looking bed when looking at the room and coming home for the day. It’s one little aspect of feeling like your better organized. For me it works.

Make my bed every morning.

Brush my teeth no matter how tired or sad I get.

8TB reporting for duty. 🫡😂

Seriously though. What’s the best help to lend out say 2tb?

Edit:This is a serious question.

I think it was annas archive that has a page for what data they need mirrored the most based on your storage space available. After looking into it.

I guess I’m shallow minded. I never thought if what use it could really have. The room it is capable of holding. Item types, quantities. Neat.

So that really makes sense longevity. Of all the thoughts I didn’t consider that lol. I do see even 2k stainless grills they do eventually rust, break down, fall apart at all the joints eventually. So the fact this behemoth is simple I can see it going the long haul, pair that with the insulation and yeah cooking/grilling all year round is a good advantage. Your foods looks dialed in! So while to me its wildly expensive for a grill. I do see the points you mention and how they factor into the cost average over time. Plus I have a better understanding of why one would need a 2.5k or 3k egg grill. Interesting…

Is there a cleaner method besides charcoal? I love smoked meat but don’t own a smoker. I have an autoimmune condition so I’m very ingredient sensitive which is what worries me about the charring and cleanliness of the heat source. The only smoked meats I usually consume are hickory smoked bacon in small amounts.

Very very heavy. I always considered then over priced and not worth it. The good plus is they hold temp like a champ! The thermal mass being what it is and all. Do you think these types of grills have advantages over say a stainless gas, or charcoal, or any other fuel type? I honestly fail to see why their so expensive. Any ideas now that you have owned them? What’s the consensus from your view.

Is that a red egg grill? Those are wildly expensive.

All the high school girls I’ve seen have gotten fat, more ugly, still thirsty and dressing slutty, partying but have fallen off the wagon of beauty or so it seems. Some still got it so to say but it’s definitely not the same. Health is wealth people. The younger you start or just avoid bad shit the better off life isn’t linear. Alcohol is poison. Smoking is poison. Edibles are safer but again nothing is good.

This is atrocious for tire consumption and wear. Which tires are one of the top major contributors to pollution.

You can get them now days up to 360hz refresh rate. Gaming projectors and projectors in general have came a long way from the faded blurry shit they were 10 to 15 plus years ago.

I find it weird that they are developing a personality to chat. It’s been saying things like that’s a whole vibe, or something similar. It’s off putting and not how I would expect an AI to respond.

It is and its not. You just have to know the limitations, some of which I mentioned. Try it for yourself and to a restore then report back you’ll understand it’s very cumbersome in some ways.

Don’t expect to be able to wipe a phone and restore from backup like you never left it’ll get you closeish. So you need to ask yourself is that good enough for you with your opsec and threat model? To only have part of your data back…

In its current form its just a hassle right now to create backups on seperate drives (not even partitions on one drive I tried, as seedvault and the OS only identifies the drive you don’t get to choose) for each profile plugging them into your phone individually, backing up each one, and keeping them up to date often, it’s a lot! I have swapped several pixels and profiles I hate doing it everytime it really is a subpar process. I AM ALL EARS FOR A BETTER SOLUTION. Having to piece your data back together for it to be complete again doesn’t sit right with me to be considered backed up correctly. It leaves you vulnerable and some of us don’t like being locked into any specific device or situation like having your life on a device and being at the mercy of it for any reason you might encounter. I’m actually moving away from graphene due to these issues. It’s just not there yet.

Its one thing to read the documentation and another to have experience in using the software first hand which is why I got downvotes, over time, daily those are the ones who have experienced what I mean. I just wanted people to be aware that it’s not the saving grace yet.

Imagine the real world use case of backups and maintenance which should be done as often as possible as to lose as little data as possible. Phone gets broken, stolen, confiscated, what have you. Having reliable backups is the difference between starting over and continuing with what could be your entire life in this digital age.

The project has sort of silo’d itself into security which is only one part of the equation. Rather than overall completeness, functionality, maintainability. It’s lacking major fundamental feature sets. Thus its more of a tails meets whonix/Qubes right now not a all in one bow wrapped package to save the day for its consumer base. Many many other issues/bugs I didnt list. Perhaps I’ll add more tomorrow. If everyone wants.

I agree. Seedvault works but if you really use the project and its features as intended you’ll see problems I listed above which is not complete I’m just tired there are plenty more.

You’ll start to see the problems and the lack of value add from graphene. I’d feel much safer on a Linux machine and correct backups, under most threat models and opsecs, even without all the advanced security features than stuck locked into graphene as a half baked project. Which is saying something, and why I said it depends on your opsec and threat model I wasn’t bashing the project it just is not the end all be all right now.

The year of Linux is upon us. Soonish*

Its had more dev time across the board which is why I would choose it first and foremost. What it lacks in certain features its fundamentally more complete. Regardless of distro mostly.

Seedvault works, I’ve restored from backups multiple times.

However there are still many parts of overall data that aren’t fully backed up.

Certain app data doesn’t get saved.

Settings are but not in entirety requiring manual rechecks of all settings and reconfiguration if needed. Which saves no time because then you cannot trust it fully for what was and was not altered meaning you then must asses everything which took away the total value, and adds a layer of distrust.

Profiles must be backed up individually which creates a giant hassle to restore/maintain consistent backups, which also requires different drives for each profile to be recognized correctly.

App lists are impartial requiring a wrote down list or some form of rememberance that’s not reliant on the backup list of installed apps.

I can go on with more its late in my time zone and I have to sleep so. It’s a good project and has merit. It is just not where it should be to really be useful at scale. I am aware of the experimental setting to create a more comprehensive backup. Even with it checked on the backups are not complete. Thus the use of Graphene while a great project has definite major flaws. If they implement device to device backups it would be a game changer. Not high up on their list of to dos though.
