This bullshit should not be allowed in the bicycle lane.

She will be long gone by then if she is released. Our laws are not sufficient for this level of high corruption.

I just like watching Saru walk, the hand-arm sway is mesmerizing!

That's really interesting, thanks for the numbers and thermal view! I did not try that and am surprised there is not more of a difference shown here. Mine was purchased last year. I do see some reviews of my model with people complaining about the same thing but it's drowned out by positive reviews.

I wonder if there is more inconsistent behavior with mine, or the pan somehow? I have an unmarked 12" pan that is thicker cast iron with higher sides, and another 12" from Lodge that is thinner with shorter sides. I do notice it more with my unmarked pan, like it can't keep up somehow.

Keep me posted! Curious what yours shows next time you are cooking!

It could be the stove model. It's the cheaper option from Frigidaire bought in the U.S., but I haven't used anything else that is induction so idk.

It's a 12"/30cm pan on a 9"/23cm induction pad. It's a Frigidaire FCFI3083AS, bought in the U.S. at home depot (https://www.homedepot.com/p/Frigidaire-30-in-5-3-cu-ft-4-Burner-Element-Slide-In-Front-Control-Self-Cleaning-Induction-Range-w-Convection-in-Stainless-Steel-FCFI3083AS/323867171)

So I don't expect the entire pan to heat perfectly, but the center area 23cm heats up in a crescent shape, like you can see the coil and the top half heats way hotter than the bottom half of that area. So I rotate it, but then get uneven heating as the other half cools down and the new top gets the hot part of the pad. I really like the stove, but that drives me nuts.

Is that size pan just not going to work well? What size do you use? I'm guessing you don't see the crescent shape heat spot on yours?

I own an induction stove now and would agree with this. The induction makes hot spots which are inconsistent across my larger cast iron pan, requiring me to rotate the pan or move food in the pan around to get everything evenly. My families gas stove does not have that issue at all with similar pans. I wonder why the down votes? Ive had to change the way I think about even heating with the induction stove.

But it sure is fast and I used to leave my old stove on accidentally too often. The induction turns itself off pretty quickly when the pan is removed.

I still get unsolicited phone calls regularly and report it to my carriers spam reporting channels. It never ends!! Phone numbers from multiple states ive never been to. This is indeed still a problem and carriers are trying to make money off of it by selling upgraded tools/apps to mitigate it.

Its comments like this that made me finally go and purchase The Outer Worlds a few months ago. Going in blind and within 10 minutes I'm thinking, what is this bullshit?!?! I have yet to try the right game yet but that always makes me laugh.

Another president fond of coup d'état and authoritarianism! That was a fun read for me: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/%C3%93scar_R._Benavides

I don't recall being given the option to vote on this.

I use the coffee grinders at WinCo regularly in AZ. I'm surprised to not see many other comments saying so! They also have a fantastic bulk section. I hope it never goes away.
