There’s one name brand energy drink I like strictly for the taste. But I told myself I wouldn’t drink energy drinks anymore. If they had a caffeine free version I’d drink it probably. I won’t say which brand because I’m not going to give them any free publicity lol.

I mean I don’t agree with that. I’ve majority used resistive stoves my entire life and I think once you get used to the fact that it’s takes time to adjust heat, you get used to it. But yea I’d much prefer induction if I could have it. I have an induction wok thing and cooking with that is great, instantly getting different heat levels is nice.

Anecdotally I see gas burning stoves a lot still in NA. I think there’s a culture that they’re “better” than resistive or induction stoves. Though that could just be local to my region, I’d have to look at the stats.

Edit: According to https://us.fotileglobal.com/pages/kitchen-stove-and-appliance-statistics

So yea looks like majority is electric, still quite a few with gas though.

Electric stoves now outnumber gas in U.S. households. Approximately 68% of homes cook with electricity, while 38% still use natural gas. In southern and midwestern states, electric stove usage often surpasses 70%, peaking at 90% in North Carolina. However, gas stoves remain popular in places like California, Illinois, and New Jersey, reflecting how local infrastructure and utility prices shape cooking preferences.

I played it at release and yea, not only were the bugs a big turn-off but also just the no-man’s-sky level of bait-and-switch when it came to the game mechanics. Sure it looks pretty good, but they hyped up the mechanics so much and imo it’s a fairly mid game with pretty standard features. The story is ok and it’s certainly worth a playthrough if you can get it on discount. But it wasn’t some sort of breakthrough game that they were toting it as.
