Reply to comment by [deleted] in LPT: boil rice until it’s almost fully cooked, drain, then return to pan, cover and steam on low heat for 10 mins. Tastes much better than boiling, draining and serving. by circumlocutious
Oh someone think of the poor and discriminated white boys!

who taught you to cook rice?
Don't add so much water.
​
Add about twice as much water as rice (volume). Cover, the pan, once it starts to boil, lower the temp to simmer for about 20 mins. This is on a stovetop.
You can get a decent rice cooker for about $40; and an excellent one for $100

You parboil it THEN continue steaming it with cooked meat etc in spices. It’s called a biryani… sigh

Its amazing the amount of things that happen like that. And then people get a case of the eversince's. "Eversince you changed my oil my back tire leaks." "Eversince you changed my door handle my mpg have dropped."
As I said to OP somewhere else, people typically go to a mechanic because they dont know how to do the repair themselves. Yet they always seem to know more than the mechanics do.

Reply to comment by PalourdeSousXanax in LPT: try not to be toxic or rude to anyone in online games or forums this week. As there are alot of people who have no family and want to distract themselves from this. Instead be kind and thoughtful. (This goes all year around aswell) by -TNY-
Exactly. I was a bit of a toxic ‘gamer bro’ in my teens and early twenties taking competitive online FPS way too seriously. I took a break (played puzzle and RPG games for a while) and made a resolution to be chill and be nice even if other players were being dicks. It actually made my gaming experience more enjoyable and relaxing and I wasn’t ending a session angry, covered in stress sweat and ready to delete the game.

Reply to LPT : How to get better teeth. by BigFatChungus1
I'm struggling to find how you don't have 2 minutes each day (1 in the morning and 1 in the evening).
Also, if you can't find 2 minutes out of 1440 total, what miracle cure do you think exists that uses LESS time than that?

Reply to comment by apicap in LPT Request What are some strategeies you all use to reduce work-related guilt when doing something fun? by Other_Account_6435
An option🤣I feel like that is a temporary numbing strategy. Effective, sure. Maybe good in combination with some cognitive behavior therapy (long-term) strategies. Thank you for sharing.

The people that are hostile actually bank on this. They feed on people feeling bad and will gladly attack them for this.

Preach.
I play Diablo 2 and the amount of toxicity is sad. Some people have been playing this game for decades and almost seemed offended when someone asks a question that they figure is easy to answer. They don't realize that most of us have lives and obligations outside of this game.
That being said, the vast majority of users are decent and willing to help others out. It's just the small amount of "dedicated" users can chase off newer users from a game that really is unique and special once you get the hang of it.

Once your car is running, typically, your alternator is charging your battery enough to keep it fully powered.
