Off Topic / Re: Rice part-II, Presoaking and Hydration
« Last post by tp4tissue on Sat, 05 September 2026, 07:58:21 »Reheating rice, shouldn't be a mystery.
Just take the old rice, all 1 block, don't need to break it, pour drinkable water straight down the middle, about a full cup, get the whole outside wet, but starting from the middle.
Now, put a plate over the bowl, pour out as much water as will drip out the side.
Leave covered, and Microwave for 3 minutes fullpower, if rice is 2cups or less, go 4 minutes if 3cups or more.

Or perhaps just not xposed enough, time will tell. But a mild stuffy nose after eating is the indicator.
LOTS of people are allergic to milk for example, they get stuffy nose or light/severe migraines, these are situations where what doesn't kill you does NOT in fact make you stronger, it's just voluntary migraines.

You can buy a soviet apartmnet for next to nothing. No bugs, it's cold 9 months of the year.
The 1 problem is the people eat alot of meat, high diabetes/cancer/heart disease place. So it's a tragic sort of lot healthwise.

Diesel and kerosene(jet fuel) comes from the same middle distillate of crude oil.
Jet fuel prices have nearly tripled already.
It's likely going to go 5x-6x soon. We're super low on it.
The reason ticket prices haven't skyrocketed is due to demand destruction from all other aspects of the economy.
It is correct that we shouldn't be flying around so much, which is why Tp4 recommend just staying in Thailand.

I want the world to get better governments, especially Russia, so that we can could take the train instead.
China has expanded its high-speed rail network immensely in the past decades. That is what the West should be competing with them with instead of who will build the biggest AI-powered surveillance network to keep the poor masses in check while the rich continue to pollute.

Gambling, Girls, Golf, they got everything. You can probably retire there on pension.Let me tell you... Thailand is a super-popular tourist destination for Swedish people and some people fly their whole families there every year despite the distance. That's crazy excessive amounts of CO₂ that I'm disgusted and ashamed for my country.
When the 2004 tsunami hit, more Swedish tourists got killed than any other single nationality. I once knew a guy who lost his parents. There's even a small but noticeable group of Thai in Sweden now. I think my previous neighbour married one. I've had a Thai coworker. There's been Thai restaurants, food stores and massage parlours (...) everywhere around here for years.
The amount of flying around the world needs to stop being so excessive if we're going to get something done against climate change. Taxation needs to be progressive: so people would pay higher prices the more they take off and land, but instead it is the opposite.
I've booked a connecting flight to Helsinki to fly from there to Tokyo because that was cheaper than to fly directly from Helsinki -- on the same plane. I'm not proud of that. I wouldn't have minded some time in Helsinki otherwise, but with the boat to/from Helsinki it would have cost me 50% more.
Global air travel will decrease naturally when there's no longer any rubber trees for making air plane tires, and winds are too strong to fly, but then it will be too late.
