Doubtful because it just floats on the surface. Maybe ones you pour the water out?

Rice cookers also have an option for oatmeal/porridge.

I can't imagine Chubby Hubby being low...but it's so good. All things in moderation I suppose.

Is this why my grandma put oil in the pasta pot?

Does soy milk still have the fiber or is it like drinking fruit juice?
slumberlust··on Two days of oatmeal reduce cholesterol level
Damn, I just blast my oats until they threaten to overflow the bowl and call it a day. Does this technique unlock some creaminess or something unique?
slumberlust··on PlayStation 2 Recompilation Project Is Absolutely Incredible
I have very little sympathy for these companies. They make access to these titles difficult if not impossible. Preservation matters and they have no interest in anything but the bottom line today.
slumberlust··on Tesla is committing automotive suicide
The expanse and A City on Mars covers the risk pretty well.
slumberlust··on People who know the formula for WD-40
And remember, if they don't find you handsome, they should at least find you handy!
slumberlust··on Environmentalists worry Google behind bid to control Oregon town's water
Back to Reddit you go.
slumberlust··on First, make me care
We have these answers already. At least the successful tubers like Mr. beast do. They ab test everything. That super creepy saturated image of him? Works really really well.
slumberlust··on Yes, It's Fascism
Close. Takes tenured accounts to unflag and any schmohawk can flag. That dicotomy alone makes things way more likely to be flagged on average.
slumberlust··on UK House of Lords Votes to Extend Age Verification to VPNs
Every city and town has a website with information on services and paying taxes. They usually use a third party payment system in my experience, but the main site is theirs and they still use shitter and bookface.
slumberlust··on BirdyChat becomes first European chat app that is interoperable with WhatsApp
40% of Americans are not using I whatever. I'd consider that widespread.
slumberlust··on From stealth blackout to whitelisting: Inside the Iranian shutdown
In the absence of a perfect solution, we should do nothing? The entire scenario is a cat and mouse whack-a-mole arms race. I'd support doing something to give the citizens a leg up.
slumberlust··on Apple testing new App Store design that blurs the line between ads and results
Not at all. Bought and promptly returned an iPad last year when I realized they were going to force me to see ads with their safari wrapper for every 'browser alternative.'

Great ecosystem for my aging parents, but not for me.

slumberlust··on Canada slashes 100% tariffs on Chinese EVs to 6%
I didn't have any issues. Running FF w/ UblockO and Privacy Badger.
slumberlust··on STFU
Speak softly and carry a big stick.
slumberlust··on America could have $4 lunch bowls like Japan but for zoning laws
How do you even find out about these types of votes? Other than state/federal voting every two years, I wasn't aware there were more times to cast a vote locally.
slumberlust··on Every country should set 16 as the minimum age for social media accounts
Do you feel the same way about restrictions to gambling and drug access? Why not just let the parents parent.

A stronger solution is a combination of both approaches.

slumberlust··on Postal Arbitrage
Economy of scale. By the time it gets sorted and on a truck, 100 miles is roughly the same cost as 1000.
slumberlust··on Private equity firms acquired more than 500 autism centers in past decade: study
In the US, we often don't have options (by design). Be it ISP, grocery, electric, healthcare, etc. Many times the option is just two of the same type of monolith.
slumberlust··on Let's call a murder a murder
Why does vouching require a certain threshold of accountability to perform but reporting can be done by anyone?
slumberlust··on Iran's internet shutdown is chillingly precise and may last some time
The way it's been presented in other threads is that the narrow beam makes it quite difficult to jam at scale.
slumberlust··on Nike's Crisis and the Economics of Brand Decay
You are valuing different things than someone else. Neither way is more or less marketed to, just different segments of the same market (people who wear shoes).
slumberlust··on Parental controls aren't for parents
They may not label the BU as such, but they certainly have policies on these types of interactions...sometimes abhorrently so: https://www.usatoday.com/story/tech/2025/11/22/meta-strike-p...
slumberlust··on Bluetooth Headphone Jacking: A Key to Your Phone [video]
I find Bluetooth to be a the least reliable technology I use.
slumberlust··on I rebooted my social life
I agree people love to talk about themselves. I disagree about work being the one to go for though. Career is the default conversation; the boring conversation.

I ask 'What keeps you busy?' and if people think of work then that's fine, but for those of us that don't center our lives that way there is an opportunity to discuss something else. Asking what you do for income is a more narrow and closed conversation.

slumberlust··on Stardew Valley developer made a $125k donation to the FOSS C# framework MonoGame
Stardew seems to make choices consistent with the gaming community's interest, such as continued free updates and DLC along with reasonable pricing, messaging, and scope.

Epic values exclusive titles, walled gardens, poor support, and a scumbag CEO who will stomp over every market he can to get his next 8 Billion.

They ruined Rocket League, a game I purchased on steam while supporting Psyonix, which is now unusable until I agree to give them my PID and create an account. It's so egregious you can't even play bots offline. Every goal will move focus to a popped up browser window requesting account creation.

Everyone can decide where to draw the line on personal support, but to act like Epic is just being given shade because it's a corporation (as the comments below implied), is inaccurate.
