[QUESTION] What are you favorite preps/hacks/tricks/recipes involving a freezer? in c/cooking@lemmy.world
[–] berryjam@lemmy.world 3 points 3 days ago

The freezer lets you ✨freeze time✨

You can freeze bread. Put it in the toaster when you need it.

You can chop up and freeze most veg, this is a great alternative to letting it go bad because you didn't get around to using it. Bell peppers, for example, freeze well.

You can freeze tofu.

You can cook entire meals and freeze them.

Personally I want the hoodie! It's too pricey though.

The nice thing about lifting every day is that you don't get as sore.

You use a training max that's not your 1RM

I'm annoyed by it too, but you can see the posts without logging in. You think I have an instagram account?

Squatober has you pick a training max that's not your 1RM, so you won't die :)

TDF for house down payment (lemmy.world)
 

cross-posted from: https://lemmy.world/post/20168637

Is a TDF a good choice for growing my money, in this case? I plan to use it for a house down payment and withdraw it in 5-7 years. I've been thinking of putting it in a 2030 or 2035 TDF. Should I go this route or just VTSAX and chill?

Looking for a gentle daily shampoo (lemmy.world)
 

cross-posted from: https://lemmy.world/post/16609017

Please recommend me a shampoo! I have 2b/2c wavy hair. I currently use tresemme flawless curls shampoo+conditioner 2x/week. I'm looking to start using a gentle shampoo more often now that it's summer and I'm working out 6 days a week.

US drugstore brands preferred but I wouldn't mind driving to a cosmetics store to stock up. :)

(I hope it's okay to post here - the hair communities I could find are all inactive.)

I have 2 dozen eggs to use up (lemmy.world)
 

The best by date is in 2 days. I know about the water test for egg freshness so I'm not super concerned, but please give me ideas for using them up within a week or so 🥺 I've boiled a few and am planning to make some cookie dough, but that only counts for half a dozen.

Can I use the HDD from my laptop in a self-built PC? (lemmy.world)
 

Laptop battery recently died, and I'm planning a new PC build anyway, so I'm wondering: can I just remove the HDD from my laptop and connect it to the motherboard? Would I need any extra parts or hardware? I'm guessing no, but it's hard to research on my phone. Any guidance is appreciated :) thanks!

First build, looking for feedback (lemmy.world)

Hi, I am looking to build my first PC. It will be for general use (web browsing, programming, office work; no gaming).

Here is my part list: PCPartPicker

I based it on the Logical Increments minimum tier. I will be using Arch Linux for the OS.

Some questions...

  1. How painful is it to update the motherboard BIOS?
  2. Am I missing anything obvious? I'm unsure if I need a sound card, for example. Newegg says this motherboard has a wifi and bluetooth module. Is there anything else I should consider getting?
  3. Is there a way to check if any of the parts will not work/be incompatible with my chosen OS? I've never had a problem with Linux drivers on any of my laptops, so I'm fairly confident it will be fine, but I still want to make sure.

Thanks :)

Edit: ~~I made an updated list based on your suggestions~~ New updated link

Looking for a specific turtle turnover (lemmy.world)
 

In this technique, you reach between uke's legs, grab their belt, and pull it straight up to turn them over. Does anyone recognize this, and if so, do you know if it has a name or if there's a video of it floating around?

Recommend me an affordable fragrance or fragrance house (lemmy.world)
 

Let's say, less than 100USD for 50ml. Oils or clone houses also okay!
