Balatro celebrates 2 million sales, will feature major gameplay update in 2025!

For anyone interested in game development: Balatro is made with Love2D. Which means the exe you download from steam can be unzipped using just about any zip program (might need to change the file extension from exe to zip) and the whole source code and 2D asset files are available for perusing. Not even obfuscated, full variable names and comments available to inspect as a real world example of a working game that has sold like hotcakes because the end result is good. Let it inspire you, let it teach you :)

New dishwasher video drop

Yeah definitely DO NOT regularly clean the filter if your machine has one. Never ever ever experiment with different amounts of detergent to determine the correct amount to use and absolutely NEVER be mindful of the orientation of the dishes as you load them.

Get over yourself.

They’re coming (with labels) for your gas stoves

What you’re describing is likely more about your familiarity with finessing temperatures through gas heating where you can move the pan around and temper with some learned skill. Induction cooking is the most efficient and fastest by a significant margin, due to the lack of losses. In a side by side comparison, gas cooktops are the slowest to boil water, despite being able to reach the same temps as you state. Even flat top electric stoves are faster and more efficient. This is of course all about choosing the right method for you and not the speed / efficiency in a vacuum, as long as people are informed with the most up to date information.
