I have an 8" chefs knife that I got from...... You know what, I don't remember where. Doesn't matter.

I want some new knives. Mainly a chefs knife, around 8" I guess? Good for slicing bigger cuts of meat and chopping veggi s like carrots, potatoes, broccoli, etc. Also a small knife that makes it easy to cut smaller cuts of meat meat. Is that a paring knife? Is there a 3 or 4" chefs knife? Also, suggestions on a sharpener? I have one of those cheapo pull through ones now. Does OK, but I'm. Sure it could be better

Dropped a pork butt in the smoker this morning. Once it hit The Shelf I wrapped it up and let it get to 210 before pulling it out and letting it rest for 30 min before shredding and shoving it into my face.

Did 2 racks of ribs yesterday for the first time, still need to work on that. 3-2-1 didn't quite work out. Didn't get pics of those though.

We recently had a meeting with our new (as in 4th in a year) rep. They let us know ROBO licensing is moving away from the VM Pack method it is now to per socket licensing. Minimum of 16 core per socket purchase, and you can’t stretch a license across multiple cores.

We about blew a gasket when we were told this. It is going to make our ROBO license jump from about $2K up to $30K PER YEAR. We were told changes to Ent+ are coming too, but details were not known. We are in the process of looking at how moving to another option would look like. Either Hyper-V or Nutanix AHV.

I guess we can see how Broadcom is making their money back. By screwing over their customers.

Found one crawling across my kitchen floor, then another the next morning on my kitchen table.
