Perplexity and grammarly

Sounds intriguing. I used to have green chartreuse but only used it a couple times, it was quite intense. Never tried yellow. I may try something like mezcal, amaro, vermouth.

It’s not like a user asked vanilla ChatGPT random questions and took the responses for medical advice. This is a service openAI marketed specifically for medical use. If we want to keep up the pretense that consumer protection laws and regulations exist and matter, this is a big deal, and the blame is on the vendor, not on the user.

Is there a self hosted or free tier? I’m tired of trying new project management tools that all do the same and have a per seat subscription. It must be crazy cheap to run the backend so I don’t understand why are these tools expensive.

I love mezcal cocktails. I am not sure about this particular recipe. A few comments(based on my own preference)

  • Orange juice is too watery for my taste, and doesn’t work with a margarita style drink. If you want the drink more orangey, use more triple sec and less syrup, or add some orange bitters. Shake well with ice and strain into a chilled margarita glass or an old fashioned glass on the rocks to keep the drink very cold and high in alcohol/ low on water. That’s what makes the flavor concentrated. Use more lime if you need it more citrusy.
  • if you have any good anejo and reposado tequilas, you can always experiment mixing tequila with mezcal. Like instead of 1.5 mezcal, use 1 reposado tequila and 0.5 mezcal for a more rounded flavor.
  • get some ancho reyes liqueur, it is smokey and spicy, works great in margaritas. You could reduce the triple sec a bit and add 0.5 ancho reyes for a slightly drier and chili infused version.
  • try a few different mezcals, they can be surprisingly smooth and rich tasting. I like Madre Espadin for mixing, it’s not crazy expensive but quite nice.
  • I agree that chamoy and tajin are unnecessary, distasteful, and can only ruin drinks, I wish bars would stop doing it. Rubbing half of the rim with a lime wedge and sprinkling on some flakey serving salt can work nicely, but the point is to save a good portion of the rim for actually drinking the drink.

Cheers!

So was this, like an hour ago, 10%? Must be based on sound cost-benefit analysis…

Op, I don’t think you had an active subscription. You can’t expect to get ad free music at no cost to you and the artist be paid. You got to pick 2 of the 3. Edit: to also add an answer: any alternatives to Word or Adobe Acrobat, unfortunately.

I have that version of the gene according to 23 and Me. Note that every human has that gene, but there are slight variations in its sequence (that’s how genes work, common variants are called alleles).
All I knew was that I hated food from Mexican food trucks and restaurants. As many other people in this thread mentioned, the food sometimes tasted like dirty water in the dishwasher, or like a dish sponge. Like soap, mold, overall a dirty and disgusting muddled mess, not a specific taste. I didn’t think the taste was coming from cilantro, I thought the food was prepared with dirty equipment and spoiled ingredients.
I moved from Europe to California as an adult, and I was eating cilantro regularly, including on street tacos from food trucks, and liked the taste. The whole thing only clicked later: when cilantro is mixed in a sauce, like in the guacamole in some burritos, that’s disgusting. I also don’t like chimichurri. Freshly chopped cilantro is delicious.
