Their name is Benjamin Netanyahu.

Resistive electric just requires a different technique. If you adapt to it, they work just fine.

Electric glass tops can be hard to clean at times. I'd still prefer it over gas in general.

Induction glass tops are sooooooo easy to clean. Nothing gets burned on because the heat is in the pan, not in or under the glass top.

This article was posted on another community yesterday. Most of the comments were about how awesome gas is and how crappy electric is.

In my adult life I'd always had electric stoves, and they were fine. Two years ago I bought a house with a gas stove and I was so excited because I love cooking and it's supposed to be the best.

I fucking hated it. There's so many cons to gas stoves that people never talk about and I don't get it.

The waste heat is insane. Your pan and pot handles get hot. You can't leave utensils in the pot or pan, they will burn. It directly heats and humidifies the air in your kitchen. It's finicky on low heat and you can sometimes have a burner go out.

And these are just ways that gas sucks to use. I'm not even talking about health impacts.

We switched to induction and it's definitely the best. But I'd rather have resistive electric than gas.

One benefit of electric and induction that's a bit subtler: you can smell what you're cooking better. With gas, there are all these hot gasses coming up around your pan that make smelling things hard.

That's not how those work. All of the exhaust gasses get vented outside.

I hope so, too. I am unbelievably hyped for this game. It really seems like they fixed everything that detracted from the first game. Mainly the awful traffic "AI".

I thought I was going to play this game day one. The performance issues are going to keep me away until they're fixed at least somewhat. I'm happy to hear that's the only complaint reviewers have.

Thanks for the nostalgia trip.

The lead singer has such a distinctive voice.

I accidentally saw them live at a bar in Memphis. I had never heard of them or any of their songs. I don't remember how good the show was, but I definitely remember it being very high energy.

I've never done it, but it's something I've seen people do to the heat spreader on the CPU. And yes it would just be mechanical sanding and polishing with paper and paste.

The aluminum has a rough looking finish. You could try giving it a mirror polish. Have you tried changing the thermal paste?
