    - Ah, not yet bankrupt but turmoil and layoffs.... -- (link) - MojaveMeg Aug 4, 16:03
We are too nice, Canada should have protested the false start in the 1500m Freestyle. Still looking for an article to explain why he wasn't. -- nm - Under the Influence Aug 4, 15:12 4
- eh, (spoils) - mafic Aug 4, 15:23 2
  - Yes! Rules are rules. -- nm - Under the Influence Aug 4, 15:45 1

i have billions of lemon drop cherry tomatos. give me some sort of canning recipe. chutney? chilli sauce? something! - Andie Aug 4, 15:06 13

    - no sugar? -- nm - peglegpete Aug 4, 16:25 6
      - garden fresh tomatoes tend to be sweeter than store, romas types, and cherries are often the sweetest yet, so maybe not -- nm - zeitgeist Aug 4, 16:29 4
        
        I use a little to cut down some of the acid -- nm - peglegpete Aug 4, 16:36 3

        for canning they recommend adding acid, like a tablespoon per quart jar of lemon juice, yellow pear are paticulary bland, other cherries can be tart - zeitgeist Aug 4, 17:03 1
        
        what a lot folks do is chop up the ingredients and put into freezer bags, cook it up in the winter when you don't mind a big pot boiling for all day -- nm - zeitgeist Aug 4, 17:06
      - no thanks, I'm sweet enough. -- nm - mafic Aug 4, 16:28

Has anyone here tried powerline Ethernet? - spamlet (iPhone) Aug 4, 14:51 16

  - me! I use them for my Xbox. -- nm - Reagen Aug 4, 17:26

- It looks like there is a solution for running a network over coax (which is all over the house and what currently runs uverse). Anyone used this? -- nm - spamlet Aug 4, 15:38 2
  - ethernet runs normally over coax yes but dedicated -- nm - Danedukenuuk Aug 4, 16:46
  - uverse tried that at my apartment, the results werent great, but they said that is due to wiring at most apartments. - tRuMaN Aug 4, 16:03
- nope -- nm - Danedukenuuk Aug 4, 15:04
- It works great. I used it for years and got David hooked on it. It's dead simple and pretty much effortless. -- nm - Mop Aug 4, 14:57 4
  - Do you happen to run video over it? - spamlet (iPhone) Aug 4, 15:05 3
    - I don't see why that would be a problem. Bandwidth is immense and latency negligible. -- nm - Mop Aug 4, 16:40 1
      - It can be. Amazon Video in particular is touchy. - Other David Aug 4, 16:45
    - I do but the results are scattershot. -- nm - Other David Aug 4, 15:20
