Is that a Vermin Supreme reference?

America's test kitchen has done that, although I can't find one that addresses all the bits of misinformation.

This one is pretty ok, but doesn't address all things, and doesn't specifically call out the myths: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZUComSZbZ7o

Notably missing is tomatoes/highly acidic foods. IIRC, it's fine if the duration is short (about 15 minutes). Shakshuka and quick tomato sauces should be fine, but don't make Grandma's all-day tomato sauce. Regardless, for these contexts I'd still grab stainless if that's an option, but mostly for ease of use/cleaning

I usually rinse them. The spines relax enough when wet.

Alternatively there's the golden kiwis which have skin that remind me of pears, just thicker. They don't have spines. I'd still to prefer to rinse them, but more because you should rinse fruits and veggies if you're going to eat the skin.

I hope you can find another bread product that's perfect for bushy eyebrows.

Ooh and maybe tiny bagels for eyes. That might be too silly or too small

Too many. I wish Lemmy had post tags, it would make things easier. There are communities I would be interested in, if I had any tools to help see the things I care about.

I'm left with more politics than I'd like, but that's still preferable to anything I block.

Broadly speaking:

Memes Anime, mostly due to all the anime girl communities Sports Foreign language communities if I really can't read anything, or I'm seeing too many posts in a row from them Communities that aren't for memes but that are overrun with them. Sometimes if this is driven by a particular user I might block them instead Communities with porn in the name

Even for non-niche interests, it was nice to have at least some spaces where memes were against the rules.

Here that's quite rare. It ends up being much more politics heavy, and still with more memes than I'd care to see even with heavy blocking of communities.

Support for tags would help. Or an option to auto collapse comments with inline images.

They also get more bitter the longer they're cooked. Even with the new variety, I suspect boiling Brussels sprouts might be off the table. Higher temps, or raw (shredded and put in a salad) may get you results you actually like.

Roasting at 230C (450F) for up to about 20 minutes should be good. You may be able to go as high as 260C (500F). If they look slightly burnt when they come out, that's good. The bitter flavors that develop from burning are related to sugars, so brussel sprouts are largely immune.

I didn't have brussel sprouts I liked until the 2010s, but now they're one of my favorites.

That's my understanding of the procedure as well. The other method requires more prep but is quite easy.

If they catch it early they can measure how fast each leg is growing at 6 month intervals (and other measurements). Then they can go in and tell the longer leg to stop.

That procedure can be close to painless. A month with a soft cast and crutches, another month with just crutches, and a third month with no physical activity.

I had a vegetarian sausage that had a close-ish flavor recently. It might have been Beyond? The texture was surprisingly awful though. Far from inedible, but I'd expect all parts of the texture to be closer, especially the casing.

Microwaves still cook from the outside in, but yes, mostly only excite water.

I believe this came up in another ATK thing, but can't track it down at the moment.

Do current versions typically get EOL announcements? I wouldn't expect it to make sense to announce EOL that early unless it's a product on some sort of cadenced release schedule

I don't have quite the same issues, but I am fairly regularly running into issues where software on the other device is asking to play audio, and stealing focus. Make sure to mute unpredictable sources of sound (like Windows sounds or phone notifications).

Bluetooth devices and/or software implementations of audio are incredibly buggy.

Examples:

  • Saying "OK Google" does this, and sometimes detects other sounds. I have to try to never say Google if I'm on Discord for example.

  • Google Photos: the memories have audio, and will steal focus even if the audio is off.

  • Spotify will sometimes get in a mode where it will constantly lose focus, even though nothing else appears to be demanding audio. When this is happening playback in other apps on my phone will continue to work as expected. This only appears to occur when my computer is on and connected to the headset via Bluetooth.

Other Bluetooth issues:

  • Old games may not reliably play audio over Bluetooth. Fallout New Vegas would regularly get into a state where sound effects & voice wouldn't play, but the radio might continue. Plugging in speakers and using those for New Vegas worked, but introduced other buggy behavior.

  • Calls may request exclusive access to the Bluetooth device. Like if you're on Discord, game audio may fail to play, rather than just playing in a degraded quality, or some other more graceful failover. This may be fixed, I've had it work at least once with other headphones, but haven't tested it further. I just have an external microphone now, and have disabled the "headset" functionality in Windows.

Multi-point may solve your issue, but be aware that what you're asking for may introduce a bunch of new problems. I still use Bluetooth headphones frequently, and in the way OP seems to want, but there are still significant growing pains, and I'm not sure I can recommend it.
