I absolutely agree and the goal is to extend that time for as long as possible. (But yeah, anti seize is actually a really good idea.)
Sounds like you have never had the "pleasure" of working with coax junction sealants before. It's not too bad, but it's also not fun either. It is very effective though.
I would personally cram in something related to COAX-SEAL into the screw holes. Having setup a few cables outside for antennas (ham radio) I have learned to never trust metal to metal connections when exposed to weather.
Coax-seal might be a bit hard to work with, so maybe some silicone caulk would work?
I remember a couple of first dreams from before I was a toddler. (I have memories from a loooong time ago, actually.) My dreams at the time kinda blended with reality and I couldn't tell the difference.
Remote probes are getting super cheap now, so shop around for those if you can. They are awesome for the days you want to grill a steak traditionally but most of all, it's awesome for bone-in chicken cuts. (I prefer consistent heat on my chicken the whole time and don't want to keep jabbing at it. Cooking with ADHD can be pure hell at first and a steady stream of data helps with that.)
Aw shit! Knew I forgot something... Like most of Kenji's stuff, there is a ton of technique that a simple recipe can't cover, so here is the video: https://youtu.be/pvZcTPOpQnY
(I used just regular raw Italian Sausage from the grocery store. Nothing fancy. I don't think he specified what he used, but not sure. I should note this recipe fixes texture issues that can happen with the bread.)
Yep, I prefer a proper foldable probe and it's extremely versatile around the kitchen.
The "fingers to the ball of your thumb" to check doneness of a steak is bullshit, most of the time. It only really works on steak that has a consistent grain throughout, sometimes. (Just showed this to my daughter on a reverse seared NY Strip that felt completely different across the cut.)
Context: The yellow dot is the tcell and the rest is the cancer cell. I found a video of this image, but cannot verify the exact source so I don't want to post it. (All the links to this point right back at social media that I could find.)
This is a an article that has a neat gif of the process of how these specialized tcells work: https://viterbischool.usc.edu/news/2025/04/new-smart-immune-cells-a-breakthrough-for-long-lasting-tumor-destruction/
See, that is what I thought at first until I thought about the proportions. Having one arm shorter than the other is possible....)
(FYI, my comments are ~50% /s)
That's the right arm, not the umbilical cord, my dude.
There was a precursor to butyl tape that I am thinking of specifically. It was more clay-like and just as nasty. (It would have been easier (subjective) to pinch off balls of the stuff and cram it in those screw holes.)
No mind. You had the correct solution, me thinks.
