Dull Men's Club
An unofficial chapter of the popular Dull Men's Club.
1. Relevant commentary on your own dull life. Posts should be about your own dull, lived experience. This is our most important rule. Direct questions, random thoughts, comment baiting, advice seeking, many uses of "discuss" rarely comply with this rule.
2. Original, Fresh, Meaningful Content.
3. Avoid repetitive topics.
4. This is not a search engine
Use a search engine, a tradesperson, Reddit, friends, a specialist Facebook group, apps, Wikipedia, an AI chat, a reverse image search etc. to answer simple questions or identify objects. Also see rule 1, “comment baiting”.
There are a number of content specific communities with subject matter experts who can help you.
Some other communities to consider before posting:
5. Keep it dull. If it puts us to sleep, it’s on the right track. Examples of likely not dull: jokes, gross stuff (including toes), politics, religion, royalty, illness or injury, killing things for fun, or promotional content. Feel free to post these elsewhere.
6. No hate speech, sexism, or bullying No sexism, hate speech, degrading or excessively foul language, or other harmful language. No othering or dehumanizing of anyone or negativity towards any gender identity.
7. Proofread before posting. Use good grammar and punctuation. Avoid useless phrases. Some examples: - starting a post with "So" - starting a post with pointless phrases, like "I hope this is allowed" or “this is my first post” Only share good quality, cropped images. Do not share screenshots of images; share the original image.

I switched to induction a couple months ago. Holy shit. It's the best stove I've EVER used in my life.
It heats faster and has better/faster responsiveness than gas or standard electric.
And the best feature? It's resistant to that stupid fucking black burnt crap that you have to scrape off. I've been cooking with mine for months and nothing NOTHING has been able to get burned onto it from water to cheese spills to tomato sauce spills it's all just come up with the standard nightly "spray and go". Every stove I've ever had before usually has at least a couple burnt spots by now.
This. Since the glass itself doesn't get hot, nothing really burns onto it. I've had mine for a few years now, and it's as shiny as the day I bought it and it's so easy to clean.
The only thing I miss is that you can't use a wok, and the buttons to control the temperature are very sensitive if anything spills on them it will beep a couple of times and shut down. You need to dry it and power it up again.
Oh and depending on your cookware, it sometimes does this electric hum, my wife doesn't appreciate it but I seem to be immune to it, so your mileage may vary.
That's the full disclosure in case anyone's considering switching. I'm super happy with mine, it's the best stove I've had and I had all kinds, gas and electric.
