Biscuits (updated)

Submitted by weldon on Sun, 06/12/2022 - 12:20

Ingredients:

2 cups self rising all purpose flour (White Lilly or 2g/30g protien flour preferred)
3 oz or 6 tbsp butter (and more for on top and eating)
1 cup Butter milk

1. Preheat oven to 415 degrees F

2. In large bowl, put in flour. Cut the 6 tbsp butter into small cubes and cut into flour (rubbing larger chucks of butter into small pieces so none of the butter is larger than a pea)

3. Pour in buttermilk into bowl. Mix with large spoon or spatula until it is just together (do not over mix, lumpy is good).

Drupal 7 Unable to Get Updates

Submitted by weldon on Sat, 01/16/2016 - 12:45

I run a multi-site installation of Drupal 7 on FreeBSD. During planned upgrades, I noticed that all of the Drupal sites was silently unable to check status of modules and the core installation for available upgrades. That would also cause warnings for needed upgrades to no longer be emailed out.

Cars 'n Coffee (Cool Springs) October 19, 2014

Submitted by weldon on Sun, 10/19/2014 - 19:16

This week's Cars 'n Coffee had an "invasion" from the Nashville British Car Club. The owners were a bunch of really nice guys which I enjoyed chatting with. On November 1, they plan to have their 20th Annual Car Show. After this sneak peek, I definitely want to go!

Bosch Dishwasher Helpful Hints

My experience is with model SHE4AM15UC/01, but this is likely good for a large range of dishwashers made in the mid/late 2000's.

Nissan Juke R

Submitted by weldon on Sat, 05/11/2013 - 13:54

Take a Nissan Juke and a Nissan GTR. Put the insides of the GTR into a Juke and add a bunch of other racing stuff and get a Juke R. Only 3 exist so far. This one that showed up at Nashville/Cool Springs Cars 'n Coffee that isn't sold. And two others owned by some rich dude in Dubai. I think it is somewhat over $600,000 to buy, and they aren't available for the US market.

Toshiba Satellite Synaptics Touchpad, Left Button and Double Tap Don't Work

Submitted by weldon on Fri, 03/29/2013 - 11:36

If you have the touchpad icon in your system tray (lower right of the toolbar) and the left button is green. Your left button is stuck. Try clicking it and see if it will unstick. (you may break it, but you can try gently prying the button, but not enough to pop it off). If you attach a 2nd mouse and go to the settings for the Synaptics Touchpad, you can enable this in the toolbar if it isn't there.

Sumatra Toba Batak Peaberry -from Sweet Marias Sept 2012

Submitted by weldon on Tue, 03/26/2013 - 10:31

I got this coffee from Sweet Maria's back in September 2012. I recall it was one of the 1st roasts I did with my new drum roaster and I also recall I didn't like it much. I believe because it was very woody. I roasted it this past weekend, and I don't hate it as much as I recall. I have gotten a lot better at using my Behmor 1600 and got the roast right before 2nd crack. After 48 hrs of rest. I can say it is definitely an interesting coffee. Full of notes. The "pungent glove" that Sweet Maria's commented on is definitely dominate. As is it's rustic sweetness.
