This one is a chilli con coction. Ingredients include a large yellow scotch bonnet, a moderately sized red scotch bonnet and a green jalapeño.

Full recipe on request.

Actually, perhaps we should have a cookery thread.

I'd second that!

I'll third that.

Have you noticed that the standard Tabasco seems to have been emasculated of late?

They do a more expensive "Habenero" version which still tickles my jaded taste buds.

On the culinary theme, I have long enjoyed Lassi in Injun restaurants,
and find a glass of milk can be envigorated with the addition of NaSO₄

Glad I'm not the only one.

NaCl of course.

I too am just over 100k TF completions lifetime.
But I have a lot more factors: 2666 which should imply TF at lower (wealthier) bit levels
And over 6,270 credits which should imply higher bit levels.

I believe I got most of my factors several years ago when I was TF'ing between 58 and 61 bits ... And most of my credits recently in the 69 to 71 bit range.

I had a power outage yesterday. After the local utility worker came out and checked the mains into the house here and up the road at another residence where they called in, he found that a (very) large crow had sacrificed itself on the lines where the local circuit taps off the mainline.

I'm happy because, while my main PC did not come back up when the power was restored, all it took was a heart transplant from one of my ECM boxes....

Now I just have to buy another PSU to bring my ECM worker back to life....
