u/yishan · 1554 pointsr/TheoryOfReddit

I guess I'll make a statement about our revenue plans vs our community activity.

1/ We didn't make the frontpage changes for any revenue-related or mainstreaming reason. We made them because (as has actually been discussed in this very subreddit quite often) the default subreddits all evolve in different ways and the community itself begins to find one or more of those subreddits more or less valuable/desirable. (I think you all know what I'm talking about; this will be the only paragraph where I talk a bit sideways, because I don't want to shit on people) Similarly, other emerging subreddits begin to show a lot of promise so in the interests of adding more fresh material, we've added them to the defaults.

1a/ There is a minor point that sometimes taking a subreddit out of the defaults and removing the pressures of the limelight can allow it to incubate and improve, but that wasn't a reason in our decisions; it's just something that occurred to me today.

2/ Our revenue plans encompass the following areas:

  • We run ads. Even though we are really strict about ad quality (no flash, spammy, etc), we don't have a problem finding advertisers, and we don't get any complaints from them about our defaults and it doesn't seem to affect their decisions. It just... isn't an issue. /u/hueypriest says that sometimes they are concerned about /r/wtf, but you'll notice that (1) we left that in the defaults and (2) it still doesn't seem to make much of a difference in their decisions to advertise with us.

  • We sell you reddit gold. Our plan with that is to add features and benefits so that over time your subscription becomes more valuable - at this point, if you are/were intending to buy anything from one of the partners, a month's subscription to reddit gold will actually pay for itself immediately via the discount. Incidentally I should note again that the gold partners who provide those benefits don't pay us. The business "model" there is roughly: (1) partner gives users free/discounted stuff. (2) Users benefit, buy gold. (3) Sometimes users have a problem or question, so they post in /r/goldbenefits. The partners (who are specially selected for, among other things, attentiveness to quality customer service) answer questions or resolve your problem in the subreddit, where it can be seen in public and therefore is good for them. (4) Partner's reputation for good service increases, redditors discover another quality company/product that is actually good.

    It is marketing, but it's not what you expect: we think that quality customer service is one of those "difficult to see, but ultimately most valuable" aspects of a company, and companies who do this don't get enough recognition. Thus, this model helps make it clear when a company provides good customer service. The marketing value to them is not that they are a reddit gold partner, but that they are seen explicitly taking good care of redditors. (as it happens, if they don't, we will drop them) Again, they don't pay us for inclusion in that program - they have to be invited, and on the basis of us thinking they have something valuable to offer [at least some subset of] redditors.

  • redditgifts Marketplace is actually turning out to be promising. It's still nascent, but gift exchanges are quite popular and (again in reddit fashion) we heavily curate the merchants who are allowed in the marketplace. We'll see how it develops.

    In none of these cases do we need (or want) to modify or editorialize the logged-out front page. We do modify and editorialize the front page by selecting the defaults, but we do it entirely for community-oriented reasons. We will probably continue to do so.

    The truth (bland and unconspiracy that it is) is that we think if we do things for the community for community- and user- focused reasons, users will continue to be happy with us. Advertisers go where users go, and because subreddits already separate themselves from each other and advertisers can target by subreddit, there's very little fear of an ad appearing next to "objectionable" content that they didn't select. The user/community focus of reddit gold benefits and a marketplace is also pretty self-evident: if we make users happy with reddit, they will pay for reddit. There is just so much weird talk these days about financial engineering and weird business models by investment banker types that it pervades and distorts even normal peoples' expectations of how a business might be run - at reddit we are just trying to run a business in the old fashioned way: we make a thing, we try to make it as good we can for YOU, and you pay us money for it. My background is that of an engineer - I like to keep things simple.

    A note about short-term vs long-term money. It turns out that you have to plan for BOTH the short-term and the long-term. If you don't eat in the short-term, you die and never make it to the long-term. If you do everything short-term, you have no long-term future. So we need to make enough money this year to pay the bills and fund next year's growth, and we also need to put into place the cornerstones of future growth at the same time. It's a balancing act.

sorry it's half gone... i meant to take a pic before starting. so the recipe:

***

cinnamon minute muffin, my way:

  • 2 tbsp salted butter (add a pinch of salt of if using unsalted butter)

  • 28g king arthur's flax meal (4 tbsp for those without a food scale)

  • 1/4 tsp baking powder

  • 1 tsp cinnamon

  • 30g heavy cream (i use land o lakes, 2 tbsp)

  • 1 large egg

  • 6 drops of liquid sucralose (i use ez sweetz. you can sub 3 packets of Splenda)

    melt butter in microwave for one minute. you can use a coffee mug. i use a generic brand of this.

    while melting the butter, i gather my other ingredients.

    once the butter is melted, i add the flax first. it will swell and soften slightly from the heat. (i think this is a trick to a good minute muffin.) then put the baking powder and cinnamon on top of that.

    next, add the cream (yes, i weigh it) and then the egg. finally, add the ez sweetz.

    now stir, making sure to get into the corners and scraping the sides.

    now into the microwave. 90 seconds in my 1200 watt microwave is perfect. 60 seconds can come out a little gooey; 120 seconds, a little dry. you'll have to play with your microwave.

    ***

    the icing:

  • 28g cream cheese (using original philadelphia... whatever the package called a serving; i think it says "about an inch")

  • 15g heavy cream (land o lakes, 1 tbsp)

  • 4 drops of liquid sucralose (ez sweetz, or you can sub 2 packets of Splenda)

    while your muffin is in the nuke box, grab the bowl you will be eating from and weigh your cream cheese and heavy cream into it. now add the ez sweetz and stir like hell. (if your cream cheese is particularly firm, 10 seconds in the microwave will straighten that out, but you'll have to wait for your muffin to be done.) it will look a little runny at first but it will thicken.



    now move the icing to one side of the bowl with you stirring spoon and dump your muffin in. it should slide right out... i am yet to have one stick as long as i start with the butter. then spoon your icing over top and enjoy!



    the stats:

  • cinnamon muffin: 13g carbs, 9g fiber. 4 net carbs, 47g fat, 12g protein, and 518 calories.

  • cream cheese icing: 1 carb, 0 fiber. 1 net carb, 15g fat, 2g protein, and 150 calories.

    *

    totals:**

  • 5 net carbs, 668 calories, 62g fat, 14g protein.

    If using Splenda instead of ez sweetz, add ~4.5g of carbs to the total. I also usually count eggs as having 0 carbs, but it is actually ~.4g. Count it if you want, i just want everyone to feel fully informed. (As eggs are an agricultural product, nutrient macros vary from egg to egg. They actually range from .2g to .6g of carbs per large egg. That's why i do not count them... low enough to not matter.)

    ***

    also note that i, personally, am not a big fan of cream cheese. my wife gave me this idea so i tried it and she nailed it. normally, my icing would be equal part whole milk and confectioners sugar.

    once again, i am in heaven... and i still have half to eat.

    edited to add alternative measurements so those without a food scale can enjoy as well.
u/_Xaver · 26 pointsr/shittykickstarters

The website is not active, but it is registered with the campaign creators name.
But I agree that it looks very much like a resale.

EDIT 1: These Alibaba or these [Amazon gloves called "Shittens Disposable Mitten"] (http://www.amazon.com/Shittens-Disposable-Mitten-shaped-Moist-Wipes/dp/B00F547P6S) look quite similar :D
EDIT 2: User question regarding the Shittens:
>Are these re-usable?
Answer: If you turn them inside out they are perfectly reusable for a second time wipe.


Hahaha...

u/redditCT · 20 pointsr/ketorecipes

Where do I start... This thing is DELICIOUS.
(Lots of links to thank the ketoers who've inspired!)

I made keto bagels last week, using /u/shenorth 's post. They were good, but after 6 days of eating dense bread, I wanted something lighter. I've made crust cheese circles in the past, and decided to try again. I had leftover dough after making 8 circles and decided to roll out the leftover dough, dump a bit of cheese and leftover taco meat (from the night before), then fold the corners in.


This is the recipe I followed, but made a few changes.

  • Added 1 tsp of xantham gum (don't know if this helps. I've made it successfully before without it. YMMV)
  • Added italian seasoning


    So. Let's start.

  • Oven temp to 400.
  • Prep a large flat board (cutting board) to help move your finished product in and out of the oven.
  • 2 sheets of parchment paper (that fits your board)
  • Large Bowl
  • Spatula
  • Rolling pin (or empty wine bottle)
  • 1 1/2 cup Shredded Mozz
  • 2 tbsp cream cheese
  • 3/4 cup Almond Flour
  • 1 Egg
  • Italian Seasoning
  • Garlic Salt
  • Canned parm powder
  • Empanada keto filling of your dreams.



    Microwave in a large bowl til melted:

  • 1.5 cups of mozz
  • 2 tbsp cream cheese

    Once it's gooey and well mixed when you stir with a spatula (should be same color throughout):

  • Add 3/4 cup of almond flour. (I bought the wrong kind of almond flour. It works best with blanched.)
  • Add 1 egg
  • Sprinkle italian seasoning
  • Add 1 tsp of xantham gum if you have it.
  • Knead well in bowl!

    Divide your dough into 6 parts. (Use your spatula to rough cut while the dough is flattened in your bowl)

    Sprinkle canned parm on 1 side of the parchment paper (it'll be folded like a greeting card, not a "reserved" sign)

    Place 1/6 of your dough on the canned parm, then sprinkle a bit more parm on top. Fold the parchment paper over it and roll it out into an oval shape. Place your filling on 1 side of the oval (Again, it will be folded like a greeting card.) Put in less filling than you think... Leave at least a 1/2 inch empty radius around your filling.

    Use the parchment paper to fold the empty half of the oval over your filling. Press the dough edges together lightly, then use a curry puff fold method to fold the edges over. Essentially, you fold over 1 corner into itself, flatten it down with your thumb, then fold over the flat bit on top of the previous fold, and keep going!

    -----------------
    If you're making circles, use this recipe:

    Sprinkle some canned parm on your parchment paper and dump the dough on it.

    Sprinkle a tiny bit of parm on the top of the dough ball as well, then cover with 2nd sheet of parchment paper.

    Use your rolling pin or liquor bottle of choice to rooooollll out.

    Grab a circular tupperware (the chinese take out kind works), and start punching out your circles. Re-roll out the dough. (If you find that your dough doesn't stick much to the parchment paper, you might not have to add more parm.)

    Use a fork and poke holes in them so they won't bubble up.

    -------------------------

    Okay! So you've made your pasty/empanada/meat pie and/or circles.

    Pop them into the oven for 5 minutes, then turn them over for an additional 2. If it smells like burning, take it out immediately...


    ------------------

    Good luck!

    P.s. If you're looking for a fried version, /u/looocha posted this recipe a year ago. Check it out!
u/juggerthunk · 17 pointsr/Cooking

I regularly cook food for myself and my wife to take with us to work.

I use 2 cup containers by Ziploc. They're water tight so I can put anything in there without worrying about spilling.

As for meal ideas, over the past several weeks, I've made the following for both of us to eat:

  • Chili
  • Chicken noodle soup
  • Lentil Soup
  • Veggie Stew
  • Curry Porridge
  • Quinoa and Veggies
  • Stir Fry and rice
  • Risotto
  • Spaghetti and Marinara
  • Tuna Noodle Casserole
  • Macaroni and Cheese
  • Pasta Salad
  • Green Salad w/ Beans

    The point is, if you can microwave leftovers, you can put it in these 2 cup containers and microwave your left overs.

    I make casseroles and freeze sections of them. My wife would take those with her for lunch, but I cautioned against doing that, mostly because it can be a LOT of food and far too many calories.

    Typically, when packing my meals, I try to eat every few hours. I start with cereal, eat an apple, a granola bar, another apple and my hot lunch. It works pretty well for me.
u/fishpen0 · 17 pointsr/EatCheapAndHealthy

Burritos:
I make about a dozen at a time and freeze them in foil. Due to their versatility, you can make them to fairly specific dietary requirements.

To reheat, I unwrap the foil and wrap them in a paper towel. Microwave for 3 one-minute bursts with 30 second rests. I find this helps the heat permeate the dense core without making it nuclear hot.

Chicken and Rice:
I make about 6 meals worth at a time, but you can do way more. You can get good variety by changing up the sauce for each one. Siracha, Teriaki, General Tso's, BBQ, etc... I also will toss in already frozen veggies like broccoli and carrots, one less thing to cook. Pan-fried or poached chicken breasts, and rice in these containers hold up really well.

Reheat in two one minute bursts. Stir (or shake) in between.

u/[deleted] · 15 pointsr/sewing

I would just buy a big envelope or ziploc bag like this and dump everything into it.

u/fourthsequence · 15 pointsr/smashbros

The only thing that makes me angry is that by doing this, this tabloid of a gamer news site justified this guys investment by giving him a platform to spout a bunch of sexist hate. Lucina and Rosalina are slutty character designs? Are you KIDDING me?

People like this need to be allowed to waste away in obscurity, plain and simple. He may be causing fans some pain in the short term, but by buying so many so fast he's actually giving Nintendo more incentive to re-release these lines of amiibos down the road. Hell, this would probably be a great article to email to Nintendo for them to justify producing more stock. But giving him a platform to spout a bunch of hate was incredibly irresponsible, and thanking him and wishing him luck at the end just cemented this site's status as a garbage online tabloid in my eyes. So fuck this guy, and fuck this shitty "news site". End of story.

Edit: Haaahahaha, oh man. So I went ahead and called out the author of this rag on giving this douche a platform, and his response after just two messages is "Cry more please". So yeah, this is undeniably a clickbait article by a desperate blogger.

Edit 2: HOLY SHIT HE DELETED THE ARTICLE! Oh man this is too good.

So after the author decided to reply to me with a baby wipes link (https://archive.today/o/xBKVZ/http://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B00F547P6S/ref=mp_s_a_1_1?qid=1420830653&sr=8-1) I replied with this little gem to another user in the comment thread;

"Tabloid schmucks like this have no concept of accountability or self image, they just keep scraping the bottom of the barrel until they realize they’re digging themselves into a hole. I have no vested interest in this site, and he has no way to justify his support of this moron, so all I have to do is push a bit here and there to get his true colors to show brighter and brighter. It’s quite comical, really."

Immediately after that I archived the page, since I had a feeling he couldn't handle being called out;

https://archive.today/xBKVZ

I guessed right. Dude wiped the comment, but because of their shitty anonymous comments section, I was able to just keep putting it right back up there. Went back and forth maybe 3 times until good ol' Randy decided to pull the article entirely.

Honestly, this was probably the most dickish thing I've done in a long time, but I'm kind of happy with myself at the same time now that this asshole gets one less point of exposure in the world. Now this cagey fuck can go back to languishing in obscurity like he deserves to. Sorry to anybody who was late to the party to read the original article but......shit dawg, people like this (mario and the article author) deserve to be called out, and that's all I had to do.

Glass's microphone is not always on. It's only in listen mode when the screen is on. Your phone can be used to track your location anyway (thanks to the nice GPS+GLONASS chip inside), can probably hear everything you're saying while it's in your pocket, and can probably see roughly what you're seeing it when it's in your hand.

I hear this product makes an excellent material for a hat:

u/untogethered · 13 pointsr/nyc

> Valid points. However, If you DO want a toilet paper subscription... with Amazon, you must have a Prime subscription to get the free shipping or else you are paying more for the shipping than for the TP itself.

Sure. But your 12 pack subscription is $19.99 a month. Amazon has a 12 pack for $8.

$19.99 12 = $239.88

$8.07
12 + $99 = $195.84

So, Amazon is cheaper. And you get all the other Prime benefits, too.

u/_AlphaZulu_ · 13 pointsr/AskNYC

I have about 10 of these in my backpack at any given moment.

Go ahead and laugh but they serve two purposes, cleaning up after using the restroom or freshening up in general after you've been on a sweaty train. They fucking work and it helps you feel less gross until you can take a shower.

u/dahvzombie · 12 pointsr/PacificCrestTrail

These were common and cheap pack liners.

  1. Aeropress and metal filter
  2. Porlex Mini grinder -- Fits inside the Aeropress
  3. Small electric immersion heater to boil water
  4. Good whole-bean coffee

    I've traveled with this setup for years on the road and it has yet to let me down. It makes a better cup of coffee than you get in most speciality shops.
u/Natural_Law · 11 pointsr/Ultralight

These are the ones I've been buying. And I believe they're the same ones that Mike Clelland draws a picture of in his book (whatever that's worth).

Pretty heavy at about 2.7oz each (on my scale), but VERY durable. I use one bag for many trips and many training hikes.

u/Jim3535 · 11 pointsr/slowcooking

You might consider getting something like the crock pot lunch warmer.

It's not for cooking food, but warming it up slowly. I have used one to heat up frozen chili or soup for lunch and works well. This sounds a lot like what you are planning to do, but you freeze cooked chili or soup in containers like this.

u/sup3rmark · 10 pointsr/everymanshouldknow

They make individually packaged butt wipes, if you're worrying about how you'd be able to surreptitiously use wipes at work. Check out Dude Wipes on amazon (as an example).

u/6745408 · 10 pointsr/Coffee

I've got an S-Filter by Kaffeologie, and I love it. Compared to the paper filters, you will get more oils in your brew, which I prefer. Definitely worth the $12.

u/thecoldedge · 9 pointsr/worldnews
u/nope_nic_tesla · 9 pointsr/FoodPorn

If you have a crock pot you can buy a digital thermostat controller to use with it and turn it into a sous vide machine. Basically you fill up the crock pot with water, the device has a little probe you put in the water, and you plug the crock pot into this device, and the device into the wall. You set the temperature and it just switches the crock pot on and off based on the temperature you set. Since crock pots heat up from all directions the temperature stays pretty consistent throughout.

I also have used Ziploc vacuum pump bags with pretty good success. They do leak out some air over the long-term so they don't work as well for freezing things for a long time (still works pretty good though) but they work perfectly fine for sous vide in my experience. Less than $100 investment for the temperature controller, the hand pump and a bunch of extra bags.

u/CaptNemo131 · 9 pointsr/AppleWatch
u/cunth · 8 pointsr/Coffee

I use Aeropress daily. Here's what I've come up with as the most consistent. (Not sure what kind of coffee you enjoy; I almost exclusively drink Ethiopian Yirgacheffe -- may make a difference)

Filter: I recommend a metal filter, particularly this one. Vastly improved flavor and mouth feel while being easier to plunge.

Weights: 300g water to 18g coffee.

Grind: ~10 (pretty fine) on a Breville Smart Grinder.

Temp: 205F

Use "inverted Aeropress method" with stopper at the 1 position to start. Fill water to the 2 position and allow 45 second bloom with n initial 10 seconds of stirring. Pour water up to the 4 position and finish with a nice and slow 30 second plunge.

Damn tasty, every time.

Is there a Ron Paul variety of this? I would certainly think about importing it if there was.

u/Hefty_Sak · 7 pointsr/computertechs

There's always opportunity in failure! Might be time to update processes so a similar issue doesn't recur. You could invest in some large plastic storage bags when you bring items in. Adding such a control may reduce your liability from certain risks like bugs, water, or other accidents.

u/leeloospanties · 7 pointsr/pantyselling

For anyone looking for the most affordable vacuum sealing option, the Ziploc Vacuum Starter Kit is a handheld pump selling for under $10 $5 on Amazon. Works great and the replacement bags are as cheap and easy to find on Amazon (quart is sandwich baggy sized, perfect for panties. gallon is great for shirts and large items).

u/loljetfuel · 7 pointsr/personalfinance

It's not espresso, but it's not just like a regular filtered ("drip") coffee either, because like espresso it's brewed under pressure (though much less than an espresso). ~7g of coffee makes about 90-120mL of strong coffee in an Aeropress (espresso would be around 30mL, drip coffee would be around 200-250mL in Germany/US).

If you use a permanent metal mesh filter instead of the usual paper disc filters, the flavor gets even closer to espresso because more fines and oils end up in the cup.

I really need to write up a blog post about this, but I have a super easy way to store hops vacuum sealed. This short of it is:

  1. This guy for the little hand vacuum pump.

  2. The FoodSaver regular mouth jar sealer attachment.

  3. A set of quart mason jars.

    Put the hops in the jar, attach the lid and jar sealer, hold the hand pump over the sealer hole, and pump for about 15 seconds. The jar should now have an air-tight seal, just toss it in the freezer and enjoy fresh hops year 'round. 1 quart holds ~0.5 lbs of pellet hops.

    The benefit of this method is that you don't have to shell out ~$100+ for a FoodSaver + attachments. If you already have mason jars you'll only need the hand pump and attachment, which will run you ~$15.
u/AlfalfaOneOne · 6 pointsr/Coffee

If you want pourover (though you specified you're not crazy about it), go with the Hario V-60 ceramic. Pick up one of these for expert level pouring. I also agree that the aeropress is another great (and easy-to-clean) option for a one-cup operation. For improved flavor, there is a reusable stainless filter that allows more oils through (versus paper filters). You can also pour instant coffee directly into your mouth. You're welcome.

I highly doubt you're going to carry the food buckets. If you have another way of carrying it, great.
Duct tape will go fast. A small roll won't last long. BoB's are for 72 hours minimum and should be tailored to the user.
Fire: Can you start one in the rain and heavy wind? Not with matches. Firesteel can start one in almost any weather given good tinder and fuel.
The grenade is a POS. It's a novelty item and once unraveled is done. Most are one use items. It's light but I wouldn't buy anymore. I have a better idea for TP:

Canadian Prepper review: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dP9U7cuzpuY
These things are far more durable than the tissue packs.
I don't know what the clear plastic bottle bag thing is, but a Sawyer Mini filtration kit or a Lifestraw for each (maybe a spare) is better. I see one, but the Sawyer is smaller and lighter.
I prefer full tang knives for heavy duty use and foldables for lighter, smaller tasks and are good at hiding.
Deoderant? No. As a BoB and if you're trying to 'hide and be silent' perfumed products will be a giveaway; to humans and animals. Not needed.
You can't carry everything. That bag might end up having to last you longer than 72 hours. As for it being heavy, you'll have to get used to it or you'll be hurting bad should SHTF tomorrow. Maximizing space is a must. I prefer packs with MOLLE webbing on the outside as well as extra pouches that can be attached. To each his/her own. What works for me and others may/may not work for you.

u/Tomatomorrow · 5 pointsr/GlobalOffensive

> You do realize that plastic is not only made from oil, most forms of plastic are carginogenic, there is an entire labeling system that tells whether or not plastic is safe to be used for food storage or not, is safe to hold liquids or not, is safe to be microwavable or not, and many other things?

Lots of different kinds of medicines are also made from oil. Crude oil as a feedstock means nothing in this context. It simply is the source from which the monomers are derived from. Go find out for yourself what fractional distillation is. Different grades of fractions are used for different applications as well; analytical grade hexane will be as pure as you can get it to be, as opposed to something like technical grade.

The carcinogens associated with plastics are more often than not the plasticisers used in managing the physical properties of these materials. Carcinogenic behaviour of these plasticisers is only in the context of chronic exposure (for commonly used ones) to significant amounts. Beyond that, significant absorption through skin is highly improbable.

u/bedbugsugh · 5 pointsr/Bedbugs

Okay, I'm going to try and keep it manageable.

If you live in an apartment, you need to tell the super if only because you risk them going into other places and reinfesting.

There are kits you can buy, though just be sure anything you buy also has a sprayer of some kind if it's mixed

If a kit doesn't have encasements you should order those on amazon.

That said, here are some steps:

Wash and machine dry everything you own, and put them in these or these. Don't be stingy on this, buy 2-3 of them. Make outfits for work and home and organize them bag by bag. Lets call this 25 dollars.

Do this with your linens, pillow cases, and pillows. If your bedsheets are not light colored and plain, then buy some light colored plain ones. White is good, a little off white is best as nymphs can appear white if they haven't eaten, eggs too. Wash your linens every 4 days or so.

Buy mattress encasements for your bed AND your box spring. Measure both to make sure you don't buy one that's too big, the snugger the fit the better. Do not go too cheap on this, look at the reviews. A good one will have not only a zipper but a folding flap to secure it. Lets call this 60 bucks. Once on, never remove the encasement without a PCO telling you to. Do not try to make your own, it never works out well. Important note, do NOT under any circumstance have any kind of bed skirt or blanket that's so large it touches the floor easily. You're going to want to make it so the bugs have to crawl up the legs so they die on the cimexa.

If you do not have an iron/steel bed frame, I recommend getting the cheapest one you can find.

Clean everything off the floor, make sure no furniture is touching any other furniture or the wall. If you can't do that, you need to lose some stuff. Believe me it's worth it.

Vacuum daily if you can, and immediately toss out whatever you vacuum up in whatever trash is outside. Do not keep it inside. I wouldn't recommend vacuuming less than every other day. Vacuum early in the morning if at all possible.

Buy interceptors. These babies are pricey unfortunately. but a 12 pack should be good for a bed and something else. That's about 40. Make sure whatever bed post you have will fit in them, they're not the widest.

Buy two cans of bedlam plus. Spray it along each joint and crevice in all the furniture after you've emptied it out. Do not use over the counter sprays, they're almost always things bed bugs are already resistant to.

Buy two bottles of Cimexa and a bellows. Apply the cimexa on the perimeter of every piece of furniture that is on the floor as well as along the wall of the room. Unscrew every outlet and switch cover and put it there as well. Don't go overboard, less is more. This will be about 40 total for the set. I recommend spraying the legs of your chairs. Make sure to cover your face while you're doing this. Cimexa will kill them if they crawl over it, however if it's clumped up in big piles they'll walk around it because they don't like it.

Do NOT switch where you sleep. They'll follow you and spread to other parts of where you live. You're live bait. It sucks, but having them come to where you're sleeping is the best way to kill them. You want them feeling safe and secure as they walk over the poisons and cimexa you've laid out.

You'll be living out of bags for a long long time, so get used to it. I recommend scheduling something you enjoy every week to keep your sanity and have something to look forward to.

Whatever you do, do NOT buy a bed bug bomb. It will scatter them and make them harder to clear.

Nothing goes on the bed unless it's sterile, and nothing leaves the bed without being washed and dried ASAP.

Yeah, it's a technique popularized by the /r/Ultralight crowd.

You can get 5 for $6 on Amazon. https://www.amazon.com/Hefty-Trash-Compactor-Bags-GAL/dp/B002BXRGQA

Pack covers do protect the fabric of your pack. However most modern backpacks are made of nylon materials that shed water and don't really retain water weight. If you've got a bunch of stuff strapped to the outside of your pack - the cover may still be necessary (although that's one reason we typically recommend not strapping sensitive gear to the outside of your bag).

Pack covers tend to flap in the wind. They make it a pain to get into your gear without getting everything wet.

A liner also helps eliminate extra dry bags. I used to have a dry bag for clothes, jackets, sleeping bag, etc. Now I just jam everything into my single pack liner and roll it up tight. Even more weight/space/cost savings there.

This helps with the 'pebble' problem. When you have many dry bags and other hard items in your pack, they take up extra space. Think of pebbles in a glass (pebbles = gear, glass = pack). There is air / unused space between the rocks. However if you take the gear out of those smaller / multiple dry sacks - and jam them all together - you use the space inside your pack more effectively.

30-100$ for a pc. (don't have to have this but it's good)

Somewhere between 60 and 120 dollars without the pc and sometimes you can find a pc at a garage sale for cheap or borrow your moms.
You can make your own brf with a coffee grinder, that would add 20ish. You can use these 1 pint Ziploc with screw on lids instead of jars but I would only use these if pc'ing, and make sure to melt inoc holes before pc'ing.

Leftover management is a huge challenge for me, so I did two things to make it easier. First, I use ONLY the 2 and 4 cup Ziploc Twist N' Lock containers. The lids are interchangeable, completely leakproof, and cheap enough that I don't care if some disappear. They also stack nicely in the fridge and cabinet, and are fine in the freezer, microwave, and dishwasher.

Second, every new container gets one of these labels made by Label Once. I used to use tape but it was a hassle. These are dishwasher proof, easy to write on and erase, and cheap. One set is plenty for almost everyone.

Unfortunately Ziploc doesn't really make the bags anymore but the pump works with any vacuum bag that has that hole/port (I know we use FoodSaver brand). Keeps the cheese mold free for much, much longer and isn't too expensive.

u/needathneed · 3 pointsr/Frugal

These Zip-loc vacuum bags are another way to get air tight storage without the large initial investment of the Foodsaver. The bags can leak though, if too much product is stored in them or if they get a pinhole leak somewhere. I'm using these until I can justify buying a foodsaver myself :)

u/McDeez13131 · 3 pointsr/Coffee

I love my AeroPress. I have a chemex for larger brews, but I have yet to find something that replicates the amazing flavor that I get out of my method of AeroPressing. v60, French Press, drip. . .Tried them all. There are some rules that I abide by for my brew.
First off: METAL SCREEN FILTER! Never paper!
https://www.amazon.com/Filter-Original-AeroPress-Built-Guaranteed/dp/B00A1GVVMY/
That's mine that I bought in 2010, still working great! I don't like paperfilters in any brew method.

Second: do full cup brews in it, Not concentrations. No dilution.

Here's how it goes:

  1. 18 grams of coffee, slightly larger than table salt grind

  2. Put the plunger in the very tip top of the aeroPress and then invert the unit so it's sitting on the plunger.

  3. Add the ground coffee to the brewing chamber.

  4. Add 100 grams water, quick stir (5-10 seconds)

  5. Add another 150 grams of water (250g grand total, it will barely fit in the brew chamber)

  6. Screw on the screen/cap.

  7. Flip onto the top of a cup

  8. Carefully remove the plunger (tilting it to the side helps).

  9. Add another 50 grams of water (300 grams grand total now)

  10. Put the plunger back and plunge for 20-30 seconds.

    Done. No dilution, no concentration. That's one cup of coffee, and if you have quality beans it will be amazing. Variations I tend to go by:

    For some African coffees (Kenyans, Ethiopian, and even Sumatrans), I might not even plunge, that metal screen filter will let the coffee drip right through and it will preserve the more floral/citrus flavors that I tend to find in those coffees better.

    If I do have a medium roast coffee (rare, I like light roasts), I would press very delicately and probably not stir much at all.

u/arachnophilia · 3 pointsr/DebateReligion
u/Biohazard6520 · 3 pointsr/bugout

Just a quick comment because I'm on mobile, and at work.

Fire starters - have backups for your backups. That could be extra water-proof strike anywhere matches in a container, Bic lighters, ferrocerium rods. You don't want to be without a fire.

Medical supplies - DO NOT SKIMP ON GOOD MEDICAL SUPPLIES, you need stuff for everything. While hopefully you never need to use it, it is imperative that you have a good comprehensive medical kit the normal bandaids, gauze, hydrocortisone, Neosporin, antibacterial wipes, alcohol pads, etc, etc. But you also need more less thought of things like: a good suture kit, splints, pain relievers like ibuprofen, advil, tylenol, even Nyquil maybe. Any of you your personal meds, or family member meds. (This is a very simple list btw)

Toiletries - Yeah, it's a topic nobody wants to discuss, I know. But hey, shit happens. You don't want to be in a stressful situation, and be drity, and uncomfortable too. Things like, toilet paper (some compressed coin tissues are small, light, and convenient. Will link below), wet wipes, condoms, tampons, feminine pads, soap(s), hand sanitizer, toothpaste, tooth brush, mouth wash, tooth brush, floss, lotion(s), BABY POWDER (very useful, and a godsend for if anything rubs down there). (Again this is just a short list)

Clothes - Rotate with the weather. Good comfortable breathable underwear are a must, same with socks, also double them, nobody likes soggy socks and underpants.

That's all for now.

Is this in addition to the 2 pairs of socks mentioned in your "transportation" section?

> Sleep/Shelter (light tarp, 2 x 50 feet of 550 Titan survivor cord, emergency Mylar blanket, portable hammock? wool blanket? woobie? bivvy bag?)

You said "4-season." Have you tested any of this in the extremes of the seasons? Especially winter?

> Illumination (LED flashlight, headlamp, spare batteries)

Enough spare batteries? Rechargeable batteries? Way to recharge said rechargeable batteries?

> Combustion (waterproof matches in waterproof container, 5 Bic lighters, Fresnel lens, Magnesium block? Ferro rod? Survivorsteel? travel lantern? 12-hour candles?)

More ways to start a fire is always good. I see no tinder, though. Having some on hand in case you can't gather any (none around, or it's all wet) is handy, and it won't take up much space. Something like Wetfire or even cotton soaked in petroleum jelly (you can store this in a ziploc or cut straws to an inch and a half or 2 inches stuff it down in there, pinch the ends with pliers and melt them with a lighter). Maybe even just carry a tiny jar of Vaseline and some cotton swabs to make a cotton tinder stick on the spot.

> Hydration (filled 40oz stainless steel water bottle, Sawyer Mini water filter)

Consider a few collapsible water bottles. No need to keep them full. If you either know you're going to go a long stretch between water sources or you're going to wander into an area where you're not sure about the water (quality or availability), you can fill them up.

> Protection (two high-capacity 9mm handguns… make and model? How much ammunition for 2 weeks?)

"How much ammo?" depends on how much you actually need to use them. Hopefully, you'd use them zero, which means that you need zero ammo. Worst case that you live through is lucking your way through daily extended gun fights. The truth would likely be somewhere in the middle.

Let's consider weight for a moment

Most handguns sold as new in the US come with 2 magazines. Standard magazine capacity for a Glock 17 or M&P9 is 17 rounds. Glock 19 and M&P9c carry 15 rounds in their standard capacity magazines. So, 2 full mags with the gun is 34 rounds for the full sized guns or 30 rounds in the compact guns. That's about a pound of ammunition in 2 magazines (rounding because I'm lazy). If you've got 2 guns that each came with 2 magazines, you have 2 pounds of ammunition between the two guns, plus the weight of the guns and the magazines themselves.

The Glock 17 has a 4.5" barrel and weighs 24.87 ounces (1.55 pounds) with an empty magazine.

The M&P9 has a 4.25" barrel and weighs 24.7 ounces (1.54 pounds) with an empty magazine.

So, for each gun with 2 full magazines, you're talking about roughly 3.5 pounds of weight, so 7 pounds if you're carrying 2 guns. The compact versions of the guns (G19 and M&P9c) aren't much lighter, so not worth factoring the difference.

Most handgun ammo comes in 50 round boxes (some of the higher end defensive ammo comes in 20 or 25 round boxes). That 50 round box weighs between 1.4 and 1.6 pounds (depending on the weight of the actual projectile used).

1 box of ammo will give you 2 loaded magazines and 16 rounds left loose (for the full sized guns, 20 rounds for the compact guns). Might as well pop for a third magazine to stuff at least most of the ammo in. And you're adding another half pound to your load for each gun you do this for.

So, 8 pounds for 2 guns, 6 loaded magazines, and 100 rounds of ammunition. How much more weight do you want to carry?

Also, please define "high-capacity."

Make and model is debatable. Lots of folks will say "Glock" without a second thought. They're reliable, no doubt, but they don't naturally point straight for a lot of people. If you're going to practice plenty, that's not a problem. If you're not, it might be. I prefer the M&P over the Glock. It naturally points straight for me.

Honestly, this is a big can of worms with no single "correct" answer, and it actually brings more questions than answers. Things like:

  1. What is your experience level with firearms?

  2. How much do/can/will you practice?

  3. How much training are you willing to get?

    And many more questions, really. It deserves its own post.

    > Medical Supplementation

    You asked about antibiotics. Do you know how to determine what antibiotic to use? How much of it to use? Are you allergic to any antibiotics? Allergy to the penicillin family is fairly common, for example.

    Seriously consider consulting your physician about this. Tell him/her you're planning an extended camping trip and you're worried about possible infection if you get a serious cut while out. Ask about a prescription for a prophylactic course of antibiotics for such an event. They might do it, they might not. If they do, fill the scrip and make note of what it is and the dosage amount and instructions and use that as a launching point for future research.

    > toilet paper coins

    That looks like a bad implementation of a good idea. Carry some actual TP (same type you're used to at home, pull the cardboard tube out of the middle to help it squish flatter) and/or some wet wipes. If you don't mind the bulk and the weight, go to the baby section of Wal-Mart and grab some Parent's Choice brand baby wipes. They're not flushable, definitely not septic safe, and I have no idea how biodegradable they are, but they're surprisingly tough, and reasonably cheap. I don't recall what a pack of 80 costs off the top of my head, but a case of 1200 costs $20. If you don't want to brave the baby section, grab some Charmin wipes (which are flushable if that matters to you) from the regular TP area of Wal-Mart. Avoid the Cottonelle wipes. Their structural integrity leaves much to be desired.

    Also, a way to wipe your ass isn't a "creature comfort." Personal hygiene is a necessity that becomes doubly important when SHTF.

    > -folding solar panel?

    If you have the space (volume and weight) and have batteries to charge (like for your lights), sure, go for it.

    This is starting to get long (does Reddit have a character limit?), so I'll try to breeze through a few other things:

    If we get the "WW3/national SHTF/anarchy scenario," that .22 will be good to hunt with, but crap to fight with. In that scenario, a proper AR-15 in 5.56x45 NATO would be preferable, but I wouldn't want to hump 250 miles with it in the open if I didn't have to. Consider a Pistol Caliber Carbine (PCC) that takes the same magazines as your handguns (Kel-Tec has a few options, Ruger's PC9 is promising, too). It's not as good as a proper rifle, but it will extend the useful range of the handgun ammunition and magazines you're already toting. It will also add 4-6 pounds to your load, but a decent AR will ad 6 to 8 before you factor the extra magazines and ammo.

    NVG are bulky and expensive. Unless you plan to move and/or fight a lot at night, I'd skip them.

    The use case you make for a gas mask can be handled by a bandana or shemagh, either of which is lighter, more compact, and have other uses. If you're expecting actual gas, grab the gas mask, otherwise it's unnecessary weight.

    A lightweight vest is going to stop handgun rounds but probably not rifle rounds. It's also probably going to be hot. This one's up to you. Helmet is also a personal choice. I expect it would get more actual use saving you from tree branches and falls than gun shots, but not sure if you want the extra weight, bulk, and potential heat build-up.

u/sissipaska · 2 pointsr/Ultralight

That's just a normal trash bag. Just about every store sells them.

To my understanding trash compactor bags are made to be more durable than ordinary trash bags, which is the reason they are so popular in the American UL culture. People have used them for multi-month thru-hikes, whereas ordinary trash bags might get shredded after few uses.

Speaking of your link (ha!), get a container of wet wipes and some spray deodorant for your self and the clothing bag. If you have a place where they could hang and dry it would be ideal, since otherwise you'll have to put on damp clothing for the ride home. If you have a bike cage at work, perhaps hanging them off a hanger from your wheel or handlebars.

Otherwise, if you have no choice but to place them in a sealed bag, Fred Meyers has enormous ziploc bags in their home storage department. You probably want L or XL, XXL can fit a King sized duvet; I think FM only carries L and XXL. BTW, they're also good for an inner just-in-case liner for any electronics you're carrying; I carry one on me when I'm on vacation in order to save anything that can't get wet in case I'm stuck outdoors in a monsoon.

I keep a running list of current WIP's with notes to myself so I don't forget things as I switch between them. This helps when I can't decide which one to work on, I can kind of choose the "easiest" one based on my notes.

I limit myself when I have too many WIPs, and I don't start any new projects until I finish at least one WIP, which gives you the inspiration to get going!

As for organization, I keep everything for a project in large ziploc bags.

Hope this helps!

u/sillycyco · 2 pointsr/BurningMan

Anything super perishable and that can be frozen, can be stored with dry ice. If you use a smaller cooler, and rarely open it, it will keep a good long time, frozen solid. We had frozen bacon in a cooler last year that stayed frozen until at least thursday with dry ice. No real special handling other than not opening that cooler.

Most things can just be stored in a cooler with ice. Maintain the ice, keep it stocked up, and you'll be fine. Do not let food items get wet, keep them in zip lock bags. Keeping your ice in large zip locks is a good idea too, as it can be used as potable water when it melts. Ice melt in a cooler is nasty stuff.

I don't see why you couldn't wash and dry quinoa. I have no experience there, but a good washing and some time in an oven should get it bone dry. Bag it and keep it cool.

Veggies will be fine. Try to wash them before hand, put into ziplocks and keep cool. Onions and tomatoes wouldn't need to be kept on ice, just kept out of the sun and kept cool. Put on ice if really needed. Cucumbers should be fine for the week in a cooler. Lettuce will be fine as well. Store unlike veggies in separate containers, as they ripen at different rates.

Really you should be fine, if you have good cooler management. Keep them off the ground and in the shade. You can wrap them in reflectix as well, this will add a bit of insulation to them. Make sure they close well, don't leave open or cracked. Keep frequently opened coolers (drinks, stuff like that) separate from storage coolers.

u/Callque · 2 pointsr/konmari

I'd get a couple of these and store the clothes you don't currently fit into out of the way for now. I think you're right that having them take up space in your closet and seeing them knowing you can't wear them right now is a downer and really affects the whole 'joy' concept of konmari. However, I think you have a very valid reason to keep those items.

We use this storage system we got in the children's section at Ikea. (I tried to find a picture of it but their website sucks). It is a combo of shelves and bins so it was great to grow with as we have reconfigured it multiple times.

For larger, awkwardly shaped toys - I really love these large and [x-large ziplock bags] (http://www.amazon.com/Ziploc-Double-Zipper-X-Large-4-Count/dp/B003U6A3EY). For example, I will put an entire race track set in one or my kids got this indoor golf set that had a massive number of pieces that were all really long. They take up less room than bins and I can just throw them on top of each other. I just them put them in their closets and they can grab them when they want.

u/reddeb · 2 pointsr/relationship_advice

It sounds like you've made the right decision, I thought I'd make a couple of suggestions.

While a bit pricey, I highly recommend getting a bug oven so worth it. Generally marketed for bedbugs, they kill all bugs and the peace of mind is tremendous. Buy a bunch of jumbo Ziploc bags you place your clothes, books, bedding, whatever, in the bags then into the bug oven. After when removing your stuff you'll see the dead critters and even dead critter eggs. Pesticide free and it works. I've used it when I saw a spider on my full length silk curtains, I wouldn't have been able to sleep otherwise, after I pulled the curtains out there were 3 dead spiders and countless fried spider eggs, I was so freaked out but also thrilled at the same time! You have no idea!

You may also want to look into these strips if you're ok with going a pesticide route. These have no odor and no obvious chemical outgassing but make no mistake, they are a pesticide. These are use in food silos so they're not scary chemicals but if you chose to use them I would do it when you're out of town, hang them around the apartment and in your car and if possible then open windows and sleep elsewhere for a night after you take them away. You may want to see your Dr for a rx of permethrin cream just to have at home so you're not left scratching in the middle of the night, these critters are resilient and you may end up reinfected somehow.

All of these things may seem extreme and maybe they are. I'd rather spend the money and know I have a game plan that provides peace of mind. I have 4 college age sons, they bring friends home, go camping, sleep at random girls houses and dorm rooms, the bug over is big enough that I can toss their suitcase or overnight bag, backpack and pillows in and we all sleep better knowing I won't have to fire bomb. Cause you know. Spiders.

I use one of these two cup ziplock containers. I just dump my dry food in, then either cold or hot water however I happen to be re-hydrating at the time. When you're done put some water in and put the lid on and give it a shake, then disperse the gray water. (I drink it) You may have flavors transferring over meal to meal depending on what you eat. A tiny bit of camp soap and warm warm water might clean it out better. I don't use camp soap so I couldn't say for sure.

These are basically ziploc freezer bags, which can handle extreme temps. My understanding is normal ziploc bags cannot handle the higher temps for cooking.

Looking at the clamp sealer, I think those are just pricier, less flexible with cooking methods, and not needed since sous vide cooking doesn't reall require a perfect air tight seal.

u/RedOctobyr · 2 pointsr/sousvide

Personally, if it's within the budget, I'd rather put the money into an inexpensive vacuum sealer. I had a Ziploc brand manual vacuum pump:

Ziploc vacuum kit

The pump worked nicely, but the bags would gradually leak and lose their vacuum, leading to freezer burn.

I got a $40 vacuum sealer (Crenova VS-1) when I got my Anova, and I've been very happy with it. And (2) 50-foot rolls of 11" vacuum bag material for $18 on Amazon has made it pretty affordable to use. Almost certainly cheaper per-bag than the Ziploc vacuum bags, and it works better. Reliable seals, and no leaks.

u/whenthepawn · 2 pointsr/budgetfood

Don't underestimate your freezer so you can buy the ingredients you want. It took me years to embrace this while cooking for 2. Need heavy cream for a recipe but feel like it's wasteful? Go ahead and buy it, you can freeze the leftover as ice cubes and put them in a bag when frozen. Flash freezing items like that (or cut up bell pepper for example) is helpful. Also, try to vacuum seal your bags using a straw or [something like this] (http://www.amazon.com/Ziploc-Vacuum-Starter-3-Quart-1-Pump/dp/B003UEMFUG) to get the most freezer life out of items.

You want to get the wide mouth jar sealer so you can get the greens out of the jar. I think I got  vacuum pump thing at Walmart and it was just the pump bc I didn't spend that much on it, but it's still one of the cheaper ones on Amazon and it's rly good quality.

u/bronsoncharles · 2 pointsr/food

That's when you have to use a vacuum seal bag. The vacuum bags are thicker, usually between 3 and 5 mm and the plastic withstands a higher temperature than zip locks. I've had bags fail on me a few times now and I can't tell you how much it sucks. Sous vide cooking isn't instant gratification so it doubly sucks when I bag rips after waiting hours. I'll use zip locks when I'm making boneless chicken breast or burger patty's that cook in 1 hour but for anything that cooks over night or is an expensive cut of meat I use a vacuum bag. For someone starting out and you don't want to drop 80 bucks on vacuum sealer you can look into one of these 5 dollar zip loc kit. It uses a hand pump and special high grade bags. It's cheap to get started but the bags can get expensive.

u/OsoGato · 2 pointsr/microgrowery

I plan on storing my seeds for years. Here's how I do it:

  1. Drill a 3/4" hole in the lid of a 2 or 4 oz. baby food jar, using a Forstner bit. Tape over the hole with micropore tape on both sides. Fill the jar half-way with Damprid (calcium chloride). Silica gel only gets RH down to 40%, whereas CaCl2 lowers it to <25%. Stuff the rest of the jar with cotton and screw the lid on. I stick the baby food jar to the bottom of a pint- or quart-sized wide-mouth mason jar using these from Wallyworld.

  2. Put the seeds in small ziploc baggies or breeder's packs inside the mason jar. Make sure they're slightly open and not airtight.

  3. Put some oxygen absorber packets in there.

  4. Put the lid on and vacuum seal the jar with one of these and a vacuum pump. You can use a Food Saver pump if you have one but I went with a cheaper option. I squirt some silicone in a ring around the lip for a better seal to the jar sealer.

  5. Screw the jar ring on and store the mason jar in the fridge.

    This method takes care of the 3 things that lower seed viability--humidity, oxidation (with the oxygen absorbers and vacuum seal), and temperature. I also plan on saving herb for the long haul like this, but with 62% Boveda packs instead of the CaCl2.

Ima leave this little hack right here for Hario:

Skerton Owners

Mini mills go here

That will improve your consistency. A lot.

Something that is becoming more common is the 'filtering out your fines and / or post grind rinse' . THis is something the last Aeropress winner stated they did to eliminate the dust that mucks up the cup.

Get a 250 micron screen (I use an Aeropress and the steel screens made for aeropress can do the trick. If you are brewing anything but espresso , get the NORMAL. For espresso maybe you get the superfine )

NORMAL

http://www.amazon.com/Able-Brewing-DISK-AeroPress-Espresso/dp/B00E58P7ME/ref=sr_1_fkmr0_2?ie=UTF8&qid=1413122354&sr=8-2-fkmr0&keywords=steel+screen+aeropress

and press some COLD water through your freshly ground coffee .

That gets rid of a lot of the fines and that dusty crap you end up with regardless of how good a grinder you use - 10% of your mass is little more than dust, get rid of it so it's not being brewed and you will notice a difference.

Just saying - for the folks that measure grams and temps, this is worth a try. See what you see. For the folks already rocking an Aeropress + steel screen, it's a no brainer.

Hope this helps.

u/race2fivek · 2 pointsr/Coffee

i have an aeropress, and ill be happy to answer any questions.

it works well and you really are able to control your coffee perfectly. But the filters are a bit thick and soak up a lot of oil (my favorite part) so i would reccomend a metal filter (i just bought mesh wire from home depot and cut a circle. the one on amazon is 10 bucks, and im cheap). http://www.amazon.com/Filter-AeroPress-Ultra-Stainless-Coffee/dp/B00A1GVVMY/ref=pd_sim_k_9?ie=UTF8&refRID=0GTY25R561NQ7XXDB5MT

also aeropress takes roughly the same amount of time to make 1 cup as it does for 4 cups, which is roughly the same amount of time it takes to prep 1 caraffe of french press. I wouldnt advise it if youre making a lot of coffee.

you can also use foil inside the container on what will be behind the subject, so as to not waste light.

you're probably better off just learning to bounce, though.

If you choose the wrong wifi choice, bad things will happen so you're right to be concerned. In this case you want to go with one big wifi point and then you want to remove the antennas and manually lower the transmit power in the firmware.

Beyond that, my suggestion is to buy RF blocking/reflecting materials. Use these materials to construct a hat to block the government death rays/radiation. make sure you do a good job and don't miss any areas you don't want the death rays going underneath and affecting your brain.
This is what I would start with - https://www.amazon.com/Reynolds-Wrap-Aluminum-Foil-500/dp/B001R2NM5U
Use the entire wrap. Make sure your eyes, mouth, ears, etc. aren't exposed or else.

Given your weights, it seems there would at least be a difference in material thickness. I have the American 'Hefty' ones which are approx 68L and weigh 65g.

I'm in Germany currently and we also don't have them here usually, but I bought some through Amazon.

I personally couldn't find any bags thick enough for me. Perhaps you could try looking in a builders merchants, I'm sure they'd have something heavy duty enough.

u/CarryOnRTW · 1 pointr/onebag

Use a pack liner for carrying worry free in the rain. This can be a regular old garbage bag or a thicker trash compactor bag or a fancy lightweight nylofume bag. This works much better for waterproofing your stuff and you don't have to get a heavy, less comfortable waterproof pack.

If you are sticking to your requirement for a transparent pack, go with the transparent litesmith pack liner linked to above. However unless you fly constantly I highly recommend you reconsider this as you are severely limiting your backpack experience.

Alternatively, put your shirts in a large Ziploc bag with a piece of cardboard and some air. The cardboard keeps the shape while the air prevents the contents from getting crushed.

Alternatively, you can get a case of 100 shirt boxes for $44.

u/sirius683 · 1 pointr/AskEurope

When I was in Paris a few years ago, I remember that food and drinks could get pretty expensive. Sit-down restaurants cost at least $20 per dish and drinks were another $10. You can usually get pretty cheap meals from grab-and-go places, though. I'm sure this is the same for the other cities.

I recommend buying a travel book, like "Let's Go." I like this travel guide because it caters to younger people traveling on a budget. For every city, it lists cheap options for hostels, restaurants, and clubs/bars.

Make sure you're aware of the tipping policies for restaurants, and also know what is included with your meal. For example, I think tip is included in France and the tap water is free. The opposite is true in Germany, though.

I recommend getting a traveling backpack for your trip, instead of a suitcase. Backpacks are easier to transport, especially if you'll be getting on and off trains. REI has several good options. For me, a 40L pack was sufficient for a 2-week trip.

Since you'll be traveling for a couple weeks, I recommend getting some large Ziploc bags for your clothes. You can squeeze the air out of these bags and significantly compress the volume of your clothes. I used these for the first time this past summer, and they were great. They enabled me to bring a lot more clothes :)

I would recommend getting a few of these 5 Gallon Water Coolers which you can fill up for pretty cheap at any local supermarket before getting out to the playa. When you buy ice for your food/drink cooler have these 10 gallon ziploc bags ready to pour the ice into. Once it melts and your ready to buy more you can pour that 10 gallon ziplock bag into one of these and bam! ice cold water, also reducing the amount of water you need to carry in - which means WAY less plastic water jugs.

I donated the ones that had zero sentimental value. Then a friend got pregnant so I lent her the clothes I liked and wanted to save for a future child. Then the ones that I absolutely couldn't risk losing, I have packed at home in gallon Ziploc bags.

For us, space is more of an issue than money for new clothes, so the ratio probably went 75% donated, 20% lent out, and 5% saved for me to cry over when my boy goes off to college someday.

Ziploc also makes these super giant storage bags that I keep my maternity clothes in, if you wanted to save most or all of them, you could throw them in one and squish all the air out.

u/phobos2deimos · 1 pointr/Frugal

It probably takes up half of my freezer, maybe more. I use these, portioned out to lunch sizes. It's the perfect size. These are $2.49/3 pack at Target, and they are pretty durable unless you drop them while they're frozen and full - they crack. They can probably be found cheaper but I was happy enough at that price. The screw on lids are key. Tupperware style lids will lose suction and seal, at least they did with me.

It was one of the best decisions I've made this year. I can cook steak to a perfect 134 degree medium rare steak through and through, it's amazing. Chicken also a favorite of mine too, it comes out so tender and juicy and it just falls apart on your fork.


If anyone's interested in a diy setup on the cheap just buy [ziploc vacuum pump kit]{http://www.amazon.com/Ziploc-Vacuum-Starter-3-Quart-1-Pump/dp/B003UEMFUG/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1370916055&sr=8-1&keywords=ziploc+vacuum+pump} for 5 bucks. Then get any old thermos ice chest, they work amazing at holding in heat. Just fill the thermos to the desired temp (140 med) water, then check it every 10 minutes or so and add hot water if needed. After 1 hour of cooking you'll have an amazingly tender perfectly cooked steak. Also it doesn't hurt to smoke while your waiting for it cook :)

google around there's a bunch of DIY guides and they'll list cooking time and temps.

u/eric_norman · 1 pointr/sousvide

For $5 you can get a hand pump and some special bags made by Zip-lock. I use these all the time, but note that the bags are slightly more expensive than standard ones (there's a small one-way valve on them). But result is less air in the bag so less floating, and never really need a powered vacuum though it is still nice for giant cooks like pork shoulder.

u/GoddessEmma · 1 pointr/SellerCircleStage

You're welcome :-)

My Foodsaver vac sealer was $80ish at Walmart a couple years ago... I've definitely gotten my money's worth out of it, BUT had I known about this I totally would have gotten it instead. If you do decide to go with the table-top model, I highly recommend Foodsaver over Ziploc (returned 2 faulty Ziploc ones before biting the bullet and spending a bit more on the Foodsaver), BUT use the Ziploc sealing material (the Foodsaver material is hard to cut).

u/gonggonggong · 1 pointr/gadgets

You can buy a separate vacuum sealer gizmo (an extra $100 or so, plus bags). This can also be used to improve food preservation and storage.

But Kenji on serious eats has described a method involving dipping a ziploc in water before sealing it shut, so the water pushes the air out, and then eventually said to just use the new product ziploc put out. That's hardly more than the cost of a regular ziploc bag.

u/indigofox83 · 1 pointr/Cooking

Ziploc makes vacuum seal bags with hand pumps! They're what I use. They're great.

this with the gallon sized bags. they loose their seal after about 30 minutes so you have to make modifications.

  1. as soon as you are done pumping out air, put tape over the vacuum port.
  2. during cooking, i think it leaks some air in with the normal opening. i think you can mitigate this by putting some oil on the track. its a tip i recently heard but havent tried.

    pulling the air out and then taping over the vacuum port with clear packing tape lets them keep a pretty good hold.
u/SubSonicTheHedgehog · 1 pointr/Homebrewing

Also for the hops, if you aren't going to buy a food saver, these are cheap enough that they are worth it. It will really be better to purge the air from the hops bags. Probably the grains too, so you don't get that weird ice crystal shit going on, and end up with soggy defrosted gross grains.

u/knowitallz · 1 pointr/Homebrewing

I use the zip lock freezer ones that you can suck the air out of. But you have to fold and rubber band it so the zipper and the hole you suck the air out of doesn't have a chance to leak.

So it's take a ounce or so of hop pellets put them in the zip lock bag. Seal. Pump the air out. Fold towards the bottom of the bag to seal off the zip. Fold over again to seal off the hole. Then fold the loose bag from the side and then rubber band the bag to keep the folds. This works pretty well.

  1. Ziploc Vacuum Pump
  2. Ball 8oz. canning jar
  3. Jar Sealer

    Put hops 4oz. of hops in jar, put inner canning lid on, suck out all the air with the pump, then put the outer lid on and store in freezer.

    You could always get a vacuum sealer instead, but I like the low tech approach. If any one piece breaks I am out $10 at the most. Nothing has broken in 2 years of use.
u/technoblogical · 1 pointr/Ingress

Seems like a good idea. Width and height are right, but what about depth? If I stack my battery and phone, it easily doubles the depth.

I might just go for this instead. http://amzn.com/B003UEMFUG I know a quart bag is JUST enough to hold my Nexus 4 in its wallet case and external battery. But you are right about the swiping. An unvacuumed bag makes it very hard to glyph hack.

u/PinkPearMartini · 1 pointr/MealPrepSunday

The black boxes are from Walmart. They sell them near the food storage stuff.

For school, I use these. They're the same thing Chinese takeout places put soup in. They form a super tight deal, and can sit in the top of your book bag. They're cheap enough (50 for $12) that they can be thrown away if they get warped in the microwave over time. Deli Food Storage Containers with Lids, 16 Ounce (50 Count) https://www.amazon.com/dp/B005SX9Y4C

You can put rice in the bottom of the bowl, and put your meat/veg on top. To reheat, dribble in a few spoonfuls of water. Heat long enough to boil that water. It re-steams the rice and heats the rest of your food.

u/357Magnum · 1 pointr/Cooking

A few other things I remembered:

Don't forget mixing bowls. Having a lot of large bowls is always useful.

You will need a strainer or colander or similar to drain your pasta or wash veggies.

Aluminum foil and parchment paper are very useful.

Buy these for storing leftovers. They are way cheaper each than tupperware and stuff, they are reusable, and if they do get ruined, it doesn't matter since they are so cheap. I use these for everything, and I find they have a useful life of nearly as long as the cheap tupperware/gladware/whatever, I don't feel bad about giving them to people, and when I'm cleaning out my fridge of old crap that has gone bad, I can just throw the whole thing out instead of trying to wash stinky old food out of tupperware.

u/purexul · 1 pointr/Homebrewing

> The aeropress makes coffee that is smoother than a french press, but not as bold. I think this is due to the paper filter stripping out oils and coffee ground sediment that the french press leaves in. I like bolder coffee, so I use the french press more these days.

You might want to give a metal S Filter a shot, it allows oils through in the same way a french press does, although you're not going to get the fines at the bottom of the cup that you do a french press. I switch between AeroPress with paper filters, AeroPress with S Filter, and V60 pourover depending on my mood and how much time I have. Each has their pros and cons, but the S Filter can help deliver a bolder cup via the AeroPress.

On the topic of using them for beer, you don't really want to brew hot coffee and let it cool to add it to the beer. When hot brewed coffee cools, you lose volatile flavors and aromas and the character in the beer would end up lacking. You're much better off either brewing a cold brewed concentrate (which you could filter through an AeroPress if you want, although it could be a hassle) or dry beaning the beer.

u/Atlas26 · 1 pointr/Coffee

Haha coffee is a complex thing, as you're finding out! Part of the fun though, IMO. Thousands of combinations and coffees to try, each different and unique, light roads, dark roasts, blends, etc!

IMO, the Porlex mini is a great grinder...for travel and hiking. You might not mind hand grinding the first week or so, but I've heard after that it can be kinda annoying. Plus there's something super satisfying about electric grinders to me haha.

For me, here in the US, the Porlex is showing at $54 on amazon. At that point, why not just put in the extra $76 to get the Encore which will last you 20-30+ years down the road?

Edit: and for filters, that's personal preference...if you are partial to French Press coffee, then you would like the metal filter more, which lets more oil through and those associated flavors. Paper filters filter out a lot of those oils, and give you a clearer, brighter cup. All personal preference really. I prefer the metal filter, though paper is still great too. Paper are a tiny bit easier, by just popping them in the trash vs having to wash a metal filter. Here is the one I have: http://www.amazon.com/Filter-AeroPress-Ultra-Stainless-Coffee/dp/B00A1GVVMY/ref=sr_1_1?s=home-garden&ie=UTF8&qid=1409687482&sr=1-1&keywords=aeropress+metal+filter

I recommend this filter. It's a fine mesh, and doesn't let any powder through. The only maintenance is to declog it every month or two. I just keep a tupperware with a centimeter of undiluted household bleach in it, which I reuse. Set it in there for a few minutes, and it will eat right through all the tiny kratom leaf particles, then rinse it off well, and it's good as new.

The one downside is you can't push too hard, because it's a bit thicker than the paper filters, and more likely to let powder out the sides. But if you're having to push really hard, you either need to clean the filter, or use less powder.

I'd say so, it really depends on type of cup your looking for. The metal filter will allow more oils through and result in a more rich flavor. If you go the metal filter route I'd recommend the S filter which you can pick up here. Overall they both have their ups and downs, if you have the change to spare I'd say go for it and see which way you prefer.

Have an Aeropress? Do you like Clover brewed coffees? You might want to consider buying one of these. There are a few cheaper options available now, but I've had mine for a couple years now, so I know these are built well.

There are flushable wipes. Here are some in travel packs:

DUDE wipes

[Stall Mates] (https://smile.amazon.com/dp/B00PRJT9RY?tag=amz-mkt-chr-us-20&ascsubtag=1ba00-01000-s1060-def00-other-smile-us000-pcomp-feature-pcomp-wm-2-wm-1-wm-3&ref=bit_pcomp_ask)

@OP: lota or wipes seem equally hygienic for your bum. Comes down to preference.

Yes!! WTF?! So far I've been getting by with pantyliners and these

u/Pamzella · 1 pointr/infertility

My suggestion does not involve a dry tampon- ouch! But I have camped a lot needing to use the suppositories (not to mention SMEP) and wear a suit all day. Put it in early in the am, and use a pantiliner like you would with underwear with your suit. (This is my favorite trick in general, midday I swap it and still have clean-feeling undies). Ideally give yourself 3 hours or so before getting in the pool, and take the pantiliner off before you do, of course! But that's easy to do even in a waterpark bathroom, where a full change is not. Also, Cottonelle makes those flushable wipes in individual packets. That can be a very nice thing to have on the go. I was looking on Amazon, and I found these too and think they are less expensive and appear to have less unnecessary wrapping for travel packs/purse backup plans: http://www.amazon.com/dp/B00PRJT9RY?psc=1 When I camp, I am for less waste, so we bring the Scott wipes (http://www.amazon.com/Scott-Naturals-Flushable-Cleansing-Cloths/dp/B00J51O4FC/ref=sr_1_2?srs=7301146011&ie=UTF8&qid=1425837286&sr=8-2&keywords=Scott+Naturals+Flushable+Cleansing+Cloths) refill ziplock (note, despite what everyone says, they are not all that flushable but they do biodegrade when baby wipes do not... and Consumer Reports found Scott tested to break up the most/quickest.) We do not ruin national forest plumbing, we pack out and throw away what we use in the trash but these wipes can do something nothing else can-- get sap off the tent and mostly off cotton clothing. But it helps with feeling cleaner when away from showers for days.

Definitely adapters for your chargers and such. A charging block with multiple ports, if you don't already have one. A passport case. A journal to write down cool things you see! Some comfortable and durable walking shoes, and as weird as they look possibly these style running socks to go with (they really do help prevent blisters!). A luggage tag for all of your bags. Allergy meds (Claritin or Zyrtec) if you're prone to that. And these travel bathroom wipes!

Dude, no! http://amzn.to/18GMBos . (Not associated with that company in any way, just glad to have found a replacement for the old wipes I used to use.)

u/TopspinTEC · 1 pointr/worldnews

Same. The brand I use literally depicts a wipe disintegrating I'm water for Pete's sake

Although it says this about how it degrades in water: "Stall Mates are made from HYDRASPUN Dispersible, the world’s first dispersible substrate for flushable wipes. This patented wetlaid material swiftly disperses and biodegrades in water so it’s truly flushable. It meets flushability requirements according to the INDA/EDANA flushability guidelines."

Dammit, foiled again! Speaking of which, did you know you can get fencing foils and aluminum foil on Amazon? The aluminum foil is even eligible for Subscribe And Save!

I'm not sure what point you are trying to make here. In the report you linked the FBI thanked the Secret Service for their help in apprehending the shooter. I didn't see anything in that report that indicated the FBI thought the Secret Service was conspiring to protect this First Family any less than other First Families.

Do you have an inkling of how moronic that assertion actually is?

Apparently not. Here you go:

Do some shopping.

Years of the drone wars killed a lot of people who deserved it and the alternative is a lot worse. Perhaps you should be hating on the very evil religion that permeates those places.

Otherwise, Amazon Pantry is great for stuff like this. https://www.amazon.com/Reynolds-Wrap-Aluminum-Foil-500/dp/B001R2NM5U

On second thought, you'd have to give the man your address so I'm guessing that's out.

Plastic deli containers.Tare weight across all of mine are the same, they're a great shape for stirring, and it's easy to scrape down the sides.

You would literally have to shit diarrhea everyday 3 times a day for this to be a viable option. http://www.amazon.com/Cottonelle-Ultra-Comfort-Toilet-Paper/dp/B008EIY0F6/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&qid=1377485767&sr=8-2&keywords=toilet+paper

This isn't even a cheap brand and it cost 10 bucks for 12. OP is still hoarding tp. Why don't you use the toilet paper and put it in a baggy so you can use it on your bum again later that night...
