Reply to Giant Eagle sold food almost 4 months out of date at a big discount. Is this weird or nah? by puddinteeth
I’m about to give up on Giant Eagle. It’s convenient to me, but the amount of bad food they sell makes it increasingly difficult to shop there.

my family (from Brookline) uses Heinz chili sauce in place of the ketchup+dry mustard in their recipe, which is my favorite way to make it. naturally, I’m biased of course.

Boyce Mayview park into Fairview park in the south hills. It’s not on any maps but it’s a great hike.

I had a really dumb recipe that I used to make a lot when I live alone that was basically open pit barbecue sauce because it was so cheap and then I would add some extra soy sauce because I wanted to feel fancy. This recipe is a lot better than that but the way that I used to do it was a great mindless bachelor way to whip up some chipped ham that wasn't just straight from store-bought.

Go to Islays. They sell everything you need. Just get a crock pot

Buy a lb of Islay’s chipped ham and a jar of islays bbq sauce. Combine and heat. Put on a bun with some American cheese. Viola.

Replace the water with Coca-Cola and you pretty much have the recipe I grew up with.

Reply to Is Xfinity internet bad in Pittsburgh? by jayx468
FiOS is going to be the most consistent from building to building. If you have fiber optic all the way to the apartment, then you know it's going to be solid.
Comcast has upgraded some buildings so that the data is fiber optic all the way to the main distribution in the building. So it's like 99% fiber optic. It still uses coax in each apartment, but a majority of that has been upgraded to RG6 which generally doesn't cause any issues.
In some buildings, however, the Comcast has not been upgraded to "mostly fiber" and the internal coax wiring could still have some RG59u, which is absolute garbage. A Comcast installer will 99% of the time rerun any coax that is not RG6 because they won't get good signal strength.
To your original question though, my GF and I both WFH and we have xfinity. We run simultaneous audio and video calls for work (Teams and whatever she uses), I stream music to a smart soeaker and I have over 20 wifi smart devices on the Xfinity router. No issues with either of our calls. When COVID first hit, there were some minor video issues as EVERYONE was instantly WFH, but those issues seem to have been resolved. Note that both of our PCs are hardwired to the routers, which I'd recommend for work calling.

But don't you also use "official" Isaly's chipped ham? A lot of grocery stores in the area still have it.

Never have used cola. This is from a family cookbook. My uncle worked at an isaly's location, but I'm not sure if it originated from his experience or somewhere else.

Make sure the ham is chipped (sliced extremely thin).

I used to do a loop around Washington's Landing then head down to Heinz Field and back. Really good, scenic run.
