  • Traveling this summer? Maybe don’t let the airport scan your face.

  • Actually no, they look at your face and your ID, make sure the information matches, and move you along. No secondary inspection, no difference except you didn't get scanned with facial recognition. It's the same process as before facial recognition was implemented.

    Why even write that comment?

  • My guy they (formerly I) know. After you're hooked it feels out of your control. It becomes a mechanism your brain uses to alleviate stress or to relax. For me, for a long time, it helped me socialize, as I was alone in a new city, working a serving job. After it became a part of who I was, stopping wasn't just ceasing buying and smoking cigarettes, it was now changing my identity and my personality.

    I've quit now but I'm here to tell you its big ask of someone, and you shouldn't judge folks who try and fail, but treat it as a vallient effort, and encourage them to try again.

    I hear you though, having been a non smoker for a few years now I can smell it and I know what you mean. Just try to remember those are real people behind the addiction, and that for those of us old farts, some of us thought it made us look cool, and were led into it, despite the warnings.

  • Hey I've been there, and after reflecting on it, the truth is, (at least from my perspective), you don't really, truely want it yet. Don't take that as judgement, I'm certainly not in a place to judge, but I've kicked severeral multi-year addictions, and weed was one I had the pleasure of just "deciding to quit". For me quitting weed came with breaking a friendship of the longtime smoking buddy I had, though after getting off of it and reflecting, I realize he was just using me as a convenient spot to store his weed. YMMV, but I think you got this, and hopefully my experience lends some light onto your difficulties with quitting.

  • Oh I thought that was an April fools joke! I'm pretty sure I saw something about it on April 1st on the homepage. Had no idea it was a real thing.

  • Thanks for this! I think this is exactly what I need. I'm very early in my breadmaking journey and making pan de cristal will, I hope, teach me a few things with regard to gluten development and folding. I'm going to make an attempt this weekend, thanks again!

  • These are good notes. Just what I was hoping for. I'm using a dutch oven with a splash of water added just before the dough to get it steamy.

    Next time I'll

    • nix the sugar completely
    • use at least 50g of starter
    • use my hand to mix
    • try to resist the urge to add flour

    The last point will be the hardest. Every time I've attempted sourdough before this it's been extremely wet, no matter what I do. Like, so wet that the scoring cuts just immediately heal.

  • It doesn't have to be a compromise

    You keep using that word. I don't think it means what you think it means.

    Any change to appease you would be a compromise, you understand this, yes?
