Thank you for sharing this. You've opened me up to a whole new world of experiences! Do you typically buy the hatch chile in the grocery store, then have them roasted outside? Or will it be available for sale in the parking lot already roasted? Thank you again!
I still have an old desk for a desktop PC I had at my parents house and took to university with me. It is made of cheap particle board, has many nicks/scratches, and a warped surface, but is still sturdy. Since it isn't new or made of expensive wood, my favorite part has been customizing it to fit my needs by drilling holes, adding makeshift shelves made of scrap wood, drilling in stands for my speakers, attaching pipe for mounting a camera, making an under-desk mount for my laptop, itd. It isn't pretty, but it has allowed me to fix any annoyances I had as far as comfort, desk space optimization and efficiency go. I drool when I see some of the battlestations people post, but my desk makes me happy because it is the one I have to use.
Freakonomics covered this in one of their podcasts. Their finding was that home-field advantage had more to do with the crowd influencing the calls of the officials. They would typically favor the home team. I wonder if this will change further with the use of VAR.
I've set my parents up with a Fire Stick with Netflix, Sling, Prime, etc.. But the internet in their area isn't that good and the streams cut out frequently. I live 3 hours away and have FIOS, so I typically don't run into issues on my end and can't easily drop by to troubleshoot. It's a hard sell when they are used to always being able to turn on the TV and have something to watch without the frustrations of network issues.
