HHC has amazing fries. What’s even more remarkable is that they travel extremely well. Five Guys fries die on a 10 minute car ride. Haven fries still are crispy after 30 minutes in a box, in a bag, in an Uber.

Reply to What laptops for college would you guys recommend. by Cold-Jackfruit6368

I have three kids in college. All their schools list recommended models. The engineering schools in particular seem to have strong recommendations. Their IT departments have on-site warranty service for certain makes/models.

Finally, if you won’t start college until next autumn: wait. Technology changes of course, but more importantly you probably want a warranty to span your entire time in college.

Reply to New blenders for making delicious food by NarrowThought3141

Have you tried a high end Vitamix? There is a reason they are so expensive. One of which is the high power and special shape that creates a powerful vortex that doesn’t just spin but strongly lifts and folds ingredients vertically. I’ve never had to disassemble or reach under the blade to clean. Just add dish soap and blend to clean.

Another aspect may be the order in which you are adding blending ingredients and whether there is enough moisture to lift and fold. Throw just carrot in a blender and yes it’ll end up trapped under the blade. But first create a slurry of higher moisture ingredients and then add carrot and it’ll work.

Apologies for the Share button formatting. This one works fine for me. There are lots to choose from and they are laden with ads unless you want to pay.

I’m listening to "Connecticut State Police Troops C,D,E,F,H,K, Norwich, Groton, Willimantic Police" with the Scanner Radio app. You can listen to it here: https://scannerradio.app/?l=NjI3Nzc

(Link doesn’t work for me. My app is called Scanner Radio.)

Listening to scanner app.

11:11 Norwich Tech reporting active shooting. Unclear if swatting (coordinated fake). Troopers en route nonetheless. Update: staff unaware of any incident. Troopers have inspected all rooms matching the given room number and have swept entire school. Just one more in this string.

12:15 Things seem to have calmed down a bit and State Police chatter seems mostly routine traffic, domestic disturbance, etc. Lockdowns and school sweeps are continuing though. Will probably sign off now.
