I own a Vitamix, a Zojirushi rice cooker, and a Zojirushi Home Bakery Supreme. I also own the instant pot max, and an air fryer by Sur la table. Between these appliances they help me make 90% of my food at home. The food is relatively easy, especially once you get the hang of the recipes, and they taste incredible!...
I have a good set of cast iron and steel pans, a dutch oven, and some decent knives. Those get me through a vast majority of my cooking. The rice cooker and blender see a decent amount of action, but the rest of the gadgets just take up space.
I also really enjoy all the parts of the process, from prep work to plating, so maybe this conversation is more about fulfillment. If someone doesn’t like cooking, then gadgets can let them spend less time doing it. If I want to make a beautiful roast or extravagant brunch, my time spent doing it is worthwhile to me.
The extra cost is directly from gadget companies knowing that the cheap version is perfect, and they add functions and flair to increase profit. Understandably, if you work in R&D and need some job security, making bluetooth work in a microwave may keep your department afloat for a little while.
Noble pursuit of elegant design and business? Nope, but if people are willing to buy it, then there’s nothing stopping them from doing it.
kid goes out for his 21st, and grandpa tells him that the secret to never getting too drunk is drinking some olive oil before a shot, so that the alcohol never enters the bloodstream, or something.
they follow through, and shit their pants after one round; ironically, the oil drinking did technically prevent them from getting drunk.

still using Jerboa since I joined up, and I’m so used to it now that other apps just feel off. I was a rif user in the before-times, and jerboa has the same kind of stripped-down vibe I’m comfortable with
I would just get NPR on, at the risk of hearing a really interesting segment of Radio Lab and having a driveway moment and sitting through the conclusion right as I get to the location.
This should be illegal, companies should be forced to open-source games (or at least provide the code to people who bought it) if they decide to discontinue it, so people can preserve it on their own....
wise words. I started just playing to my strengths a few years ago, instead of overachieving for the nebulous award of being “the best”, and my life has gotten immensely more fulfilling.
my current employer isn’t asking me to be the best in my field, just good at what I do, and that feels great. I get shit done, and don’t feel the need to constantly reinvent the wheel. or feel the stress of failure when something is over my head.
I found a ridiculous road closure last week, and GPS routed me through a ton of backroads I had never taken before. It was only marginally faster, but I’m glad I was constantly moving, and not on a highway-turned-parking-lot for those 2 hours. Also, we got to experience some new scenery that we may never have seen otherwise, which is at least interesting.
