  • Hard objects collide elastically which transfers more force in the opposite direction after the collision. Adding a rag, towel, or pillow softens the surface and the collision is now inelastic as some of the force of the jar colliding with the countertop is absorbed by the fibers of the cloth. Think what would happen if you dropped a glass marble on your countertop versus on a towel on your countertop. The marble would likely bounce up in the first scenario and not in the second. Similarly, the sauce in the jar experiences upward force from the jar after the elastic collision with the countertop but not with the rag softening the inelastic collision. You could optimize sauce flow to the bottom by changing the method used to apply forces to the jar. Get a string, tie it around the lid of the jar, and swing the jar around your head a few times. If you don’t yeet the jar against the wall accidentally, almost all of the paste/gel/viscous liquid should be at the bottom of the jar afterward.




  • To be honest I haven’t tried all of these. I’ve tried all of the toppings I haven’t crossed out: Okra, pickles, corn, broccoli, chorizo, steak, radishes. Broccoli goes well with an Alfredo sauce base, chicken, mushrooms, bacon, and onions. Corn goes well with almost anything. Chorizo makes for a good breakfast pizza with a sausage gravy base, scrambled egg, crispy hash browns, and fried onion. Steak is good with anything but I’d keep it simple with mushroom and onions. I like lots of flavors on my pizza. Throw everything you’ve got on it and have an adventure. One time I made a pizza with a red sauce base, mozzarella cheese, Italian sausage, bacon, chicken, pepperoni, onion, artichoke, mushroom, spinach, corn, sun dried tomatoes, bell peppers, roasted garlic, Parmesan cheese, and a bit of red pepper flakes. It was great! I want to try capers on a pizza some day. Maybe make a lox, onion, cream cheese, tomato, and caper pizza on a pan crust. Not that original but sounds tasty.
















  • Unfortunately Dell pulls some shit with their PCs. Their boards are usually almost standard as @catloaf points out. I had a Dell Optiplex 990 that had a board advertised at ATX… but a few of the mount points were a few centimeters off. I thought I might be able to make do without a few mounting screws until I realized the cooler was actually designed to hold the board in place and would not be transferrable. I thought about getting a new cooler but the board was designed so the CPU was too near the edge of the case to fit most standard coolers. Not sure if they do this on purpose to make their parts ecosystem essentially closed or if there is some cost benefit reason but it blows either way.
