A complaint filed with the Federal Election Commission alleges Donald Trump’s 2024 White House campaign and its related political committees engaged in a scheme to conceal who is being paid for much of the former president’s legal work in a possible violation of federal law.

Legal payments as in payments to lawyers not legal payments as in payments in accordance with the law.

Ternary plots (aka Triangle plots) have three axes rotated and layered on top of each other. So when you get a point like this:

You read it as 50% of the way up the clay direction:

30% of the way up the sand direction:

20% of the way up the silt direction:

So it is 50% clay, 30% sand, and 20% silt.

BUT I have read in the past that it has some smelling problem which the manufacturer were not able to get rid of.

I know this is quite a bit of a long time to come back to a thread (someone posted a new comment so it has pulled me back) but I find there is a bit of a coffee odor retained even after washing. Nothing rancid or anything but you can tell it gets used as a coffee mug. I find the main culprit is the gasket on the lid. but I’ve found that if I want to make the effort a soak in baking soda water eliminates it but I find when it is full of coffee any new coffee scents aren’t being harmed by the lingering coffee smell. I may just not be very sensitive to such things though.

Much easier to walk into my department store and physically compare.

Yep. I know I’m much rather go try on shoes rather then play the ship and return it game over the course of multiple days. This also applies to things like furniture, appliances, cars, or other items where physical interaction communicates information that can’t or isn’t communicated in a product description.

Honestly, I don’t. Because I make them better.

That is the situation in my household. My wife is one of those people who goes overboard on the primary filling and throws the proportions off. It isn’t Katz’s deli levels but it is noticeable.

I assume this playlist was put together for all the unionsexuals out there.

Oh, I agree. If I use a recipe regularly I’ll often convert it or if I’m creating one from scratch I’ll usually just have everything by weight from get go.

P.S. Nothing makes me annoyed at a recipe faster than seeing something like 2.5 cups of chopped broccoli.

You’re welcome. A nice resource for a bunch of other ingredients for baking is this one from King Arthur Flour.

1 tablespoon of butter is ~14 g. For a more complete conversion (with respect to butter): 1 stick = 0.5 cup = 8 tablespoons = 24 teaspoons = 113 g.

A cup in US Customary is 237 ml (often rounded to 240 ml). Americans don’t exist in a world where they have to play “is this cup US Customary or different measure also calling itself a cup measure?” as all their measuring cups are going to be in US Customary. Butter usually comes in quarter pound sticks with teaspoon (4.9 ml) and tablespoon (14.8 ml) measures printed on the wrapper so you can just cut a hunk of the appropriate volume from the stick and if you were using a measuring spoon to measure butter you’d use a level measure to create consistency and not just let it heap up.

Note: I prefer weighing ingredients and in metric at that. I’m just answering your questions.

No. I’m saying if someone doesn’t think the order matters or signifies anything of importance then there is no wrong way to do it, there is no right way to do it, there are just ways to do it (of which I mentioned a couple)… because the order doesn’t matter.

So if you send email to the owner of the compane and to your colleagues on same level you put boss at last spot if they come to your mind as last?

Sure, why not? I think the disconnect is the people who think it is silly don’t attach any importance to the order. So asking, “Would you put the most important person last?” is a non-starter as the thinking is that the CC field ends up as a list is an artifact of how email works and isn’t imbued with a sense of ordering or ranking of importance. The ordering of the list could be a indicative of who came to mind first, how your email contacts are ordered, or even how a policy is written but not indicative of who you think is most important or senior.

A mug warmer would work for my at home drinking which is my primary concern. I’ll have to keep it in mind as I never even considered it for a second.

I like the lid design. I’m seeing some people complain about the plastic threading wearing down on the lid but I can easily see that being user error (over torquing). Is that something you’ve had any issues with?

Thanks for suggesting Yeti. I think in my head I had it pegged as a coolers and cold drink tumblers company but it makes sense that insulation is insulation. I’m looking at the Rambler Mug and I imagine that thing would last forever as there really isn’t anything to have break on it compared to some of the more complex lid and gasket systems some travel mugs are using.

I’ll admit I hadn’t considered an insulated carafe as a solution. That’s a good idea for a full morning of small cups.

That’s a good idea that doesn’t cost and arm and a leg as you are right there are a ton of double walled mugs intended for camping. Or a thermal flask is like thinking to the insulated carafe someone else suggested but has the advantage of portability if I should ever want it.

Don’t worry about sounding like a shill, if you really like a product you tend to sound that way. I’ll be honest when I saw the Carter Move mug the wide opening with a splash guard instead of some narrow drinking hole caught my attention from a difficulty to clean and smell aspects. Price is the main thing that has held me back, though that is why I’m seeking the collective wisdom of c/coffee because anything over $25 and I start getting more deliberate with my purchases.
