Ramen of the Day
I kicked off a very special ramen project today. It's got a lot of components, and the final result won't happen until thursday.
But it all starts with this here beef stock I made (just shy of 4 litres). It's got roasted oxtail, charred leek, charred onion, garlic, and ginger.
And it's fucking delicious. I'm off to a good start.

- Good lord, pups, look at that wide open crumb.
I can smell all this.Continuity - Look at those holes!
<3palimpsest - That's some damn fine looking bread!Nairn

- Does that need any specialised crap?maikel
- O.o Allez ! J'apporte le vin et le fromage ...OBBTKN
- How was the crust, pups?Continuity
- @maikel specialised crap makes it easier, but I think not necessary. I bought some stuff in preparation cos I had a memetic response to it.skinny_puppy
- @continuity could be better. It was a thin shell that cracked - not the thick tough scrapping yr palate that artisanal breads sometimes have...skinny_puppy
- ...which pleased me, but also now made me annoyed with local bakers. But it wasn't crackly like I think it should be. Need to fine tune the baking process.skinny_puppy
- Frankly, I prefer a thinner crust. Call me crazy, but I kind of object to getting my mouth lacerated by a jambon beurre sandwich.Continuity

I bought a subwoofer. Why have I never had a subwoofer? I recommend this purchase to everyone with a stereo.
- Can’t do movies without one. I rocked a Polk sub for many years, but got an SVS for my new home and couldn’t be happier.monospaced
- Yeah, why did you never have a subwoofer? I'd rather have nothing else.

Felt of the Day
Meet Stomper
A one-of-a-kind plush mutant One-Footed Do-Bounder. Hand-felted & ready to cuddle. Stomper's natural habitat is the psychedelic forests of Brinkton Seven. Her fav food is peanuts, as long as they are not shelled... mostly because she's terrified of naked peanuts.
- woah howd those images look like plastic wtfmantrakid
- And just like that within an hour of posting... i sold my second felted creature! : )mantrakid

Some dude ignored my 'visits by appointment only' notice on my site, turning up unnanounced for an enquiry that could have as easily been resolved with an email. Turns out I'm not quite what he's after, so I guided him in the right direction and got him out as soon as possible because a) I don't like people turning up unannounced, but mainly b) HOW MUCH FUCKING AFTERSHAVE ARE YOU WEARING, MAN?! This was 15 minutes ago and I've opened the windows and stolen a 20" fan which has been on full-power exchanging the air in here and it still fucking reeks.
- An hour and a half later and.. I returned the fan and closed the windows, and now.. I can still smell the lingering odour.

UFO of the day
In ufology and alternative history lore, "P-47" and "P-52" refer to theories claiming that extraterrestrial "Grey Aliens" are actually humanity's descendants traveling back from 47,000 and 52,000 years in the future to observe our timeline.

Building a good After Effects desktop
I have no idea what I'm talking about but for €4k you. can get the most tricked out MacBook Pro
m5 max chip
18‑core CPU,
40 core GPU
128GB unified memorysurely this is better than any Temu build?
- Laptop GPU's are inferior
Check this link, you'll see the RTX 5080 is waaay better thann th Laptop versionProjectile - https://www.videocar…Projectile
- ah sorry I thought
you were looking at a laptop_niko - this is a mac. m5 is great, could imagine AE faster on a m5 MBP than a 5k PC with a 5080 for most things.kingsteven
- not comparable to even a desktop 4060 for anything 3d though.kingsteven
- Yeah I just tried to create in AE a simple shape with 4 parts, using Cinema 4D renderer... and it completely crashedProjectile
- was blown away with my 2024 m4 mac mini.. and the recently got a new macbook pro m5 pro.. and its obscene .. like cant imagine needing this much power.autoflavour

Ramen of the Day
Dinner last evening.
Aburasoba.
Generally considered to be originally from Musashino in the west of Tokyo. Strictly speaking a sort of mazesoba, but with a lot more oil (abura).
Mine has a shoyu tare that I use for Hachiōji ramen, with a combination of rendered bacon fat and roasted sesame oil as the abura.
A bit of rice vinegar.
Julienne chashu.
Menma (not the homemade fermented stuff, I ate it all already).
Spring onions.
Egg yolk.
A drizzle of my homemade chipotle-based chilli oil.Mix it all together and weep with joy.

Get better quickly!Continuity - Ha thanks. When I'm better, I'll have requests for your simplest ramen. I'm no slouch in the kitchen, but your stuff is ridiculous.garbage
- Furthest successful venture of mine was a shoyu nin'niku pork. Do not ask about my disasterbroths.garbage
- Any time, I'm happy to share.
The simplest ramen is really easy to make. It just takes time, is all. Patience.Continuity

Romania calling
I once worked with this Romanian Design Engineer that brought some kind of clear liquor in a clear water bottle to an office holiday party.
I only had a few sips, on top of my normal few beers, and had to call my wife with baby in tow to come pick me up.
