If you somehow STILL don't have a large diaphragm condenser microphone, you really ought to get one. Your vocals will probably sound a lot better vs a dynamic mic (although those can be fine in some situations) and definitely better than if you're using the mic built in to your phone or laptop or h...

I use a cheap ($180ish?) Panasonic camcorder in combination with my cellphone. I get better video quality from the cellphone, but the camcorder has better zoom.

I buy that additional fermentation makes digestion easier and so on yeah, I was just taking issue with the "instead of in your gut"

like some things do ferment in your gut (such as the polysaccharides in beans, which is what makes them a farty food) but I don't think bread does

Bread is always naturally fermented as part of the rising/proofing process, it doesn't ferment in your gut, and either way that has nothing to do with how much gluten forms. Gluten is a wheat protein. It's part of the flour.

I'm sorry to hear about your dad. May his memory forever be a blessing.

I'm a maybe on CoT.

I would recommend doing a pre-recorded show that gets broadcast as a premiere. But that just means having even more opportunity for production quality on the host segments.

My baguettes from left over pizza dough usually once it gets to around 8 days of cold fermentation. I've heard it can go longer, but I've never let it get older than that because they say when you see gray specs in the dough, that's the yeast that has died and won't rise. Death is part of life, and...

Ah yeah I use an IR thermometer and it's nice being able to point it at the steel to find out the actual oven temp.

Ah yeah baking steels are essential for good crust. I have a large cast-iron one that I use, and i keep it in the oven because it also raises the thermal mass which helps the temperature to stay steady.

It seems reasonable, and is in keeping with the poll results.

I usually do the boring approach of letting the dough fridge-proof for a day or two, preheat the oven as hot as possible with a baking steel on the bottom rack, put some flour and cornmeal on the pizza peel, assemble the pizza on the peel, then bake the pizza for 9-10 minutes. Someday I want a wood-...

I could, but I think the desk I'm building will be better for my needs anyway. The one on SDotD doesn't have any way for me to attach my ergonomic keyboard tray, for example.

oh god damnit, of course they’d do this right AFTER I ended up ordering stuff to build a new studio desk

I was a fan of the pre-existing music videos being added in as part of the overall show, but it also made for many more, much longer shows. In 2020 they were helpful for getting people excited to record sets for the “live” portions, but now that the whole “online SFLive” concept is better-establishe...

The thing about a premiere (ot even a stream) is that anyone can watch it any time. Although they can’t join in on the chat. But there’s still comments on the video page.

That all sounds good to me. I have mixed feelings about the idea of eschewing the live vote for the live fight, but I think I'm generally in favor of it. I know that others will vehemently disagree though, but it does definitely make a lot of aspects of the live fight easier to deal with. Doing pre-...

Sockpuppet : [...] Lyrically I don’t entirely follow what you’re talking about, but I’m getting a reincarnation vibe from it…but it could be about taxidermy? Are you being taxidermied? Or is like that movie where their buddy dies and they’re just sort of trying to pretend like he’s still alive? Wha...

Yeah that’s what the id3 tags on my files indicated.

Turns out I do have it, or at least 40 tracks of it (I don't know if there was more than that). I'll just put it on songfight.net to make it easier. http://songfight.net/Purple%20Reign/For%20You/

Did anything ever come from later albums?

Does anyone still have the songs? They're coming up as 404s on Glenn's site, and it looks like my stash is incomplete.

maybe this will jog your memory

I've never seen that. "for you BLT featuring Sockpuppet"? Fluffy did a cover of mine or something?

edit: I can't play it. Tried signing in, tried signing up, nope. I can only take so much before I get mad at the on-the-line.

We collaborated on that, dingus
