Update: sorry to be an OP who didn’t deliver. My buddy never made the measurement. I’m hoping he will. Sorry everyone!

I mean it did (brakes) in Australia, that was cool
A bummer, as I was really liking forward to binging it when it came out, but much better delayed than rushed.
I trust 11bit to deliver a super solid game, even if it takes longer
It’s finally in the NYT games app! At least on Android
This is all I found on their site about it, which aligns but isn’t as much detail as I hoped
With standard and heavy duty foil, it’s perfectly fine to place your food on either side so you can decide if you prefer to have the shiny or dull side facing out.
Okay, my buddy is gonna take foil tomorrow and run it over the profilometer (?) tomorrow and see. I’ll report back with more numbers and less hand waving when I have it
It was a fair few years ago, but yeah, the oxidation on it will be so much smoother than the delta in surface roughness that I doubt it’d make much difference. Lemme reach out to a metallurgist from there and see what he thinks!
Correct. Just a manufacturing decision. It looks a lot more different than it actually is.
uses common expression
“Whatever that means!”
Yup, the lab could tell a difference! Shiney side (so mill roller facing, as opposed to the dull side which faces the other layer of aluminum) was marginally more reflective, but I believe (and a former coworker also remembered it as) it was less than a tenth of a percent (<0.1% for the visual folks)
Anyone who says it affects cooking time or something is mistaken, I’d wager.
Former process engineer in an aluminum factory. Aluminum foil is only shiny on one side and duller on the other for process reasons, not for any “turn this part towards baking, etc” reasons.
It’s just easier to double it on itself and machine it to double thickness than it is to hit single thickness precision, especially given how much more tensile strength it gives it.
Also, our QA lab did all kinds of tests on it to settle arguments. The amount of heat reflected/absorbed between the two sides is trivially small. But if you like one side better you should wrap it that way, for sure!
I don’t think it’s in the app yet. I wish it was!
The sequel to the GBA game on DS was met with mixed reviews, but I enjoyed it enough. I’d give it a whirl sometime!
The weekly is great this week. It’s a unique one
Just played it. It’s indeed short but fun. I enjoyed it enough to wishlist it
Show me the grim dark future of the 41st millennium on the timeline!
I really enjoyed this one. It’s always fun having ING, and W is surprisingly useful
He’s just in cosplay for his favorite restaurant
That was a fun hot ones. Struggled, but sent it anyway. Nothing to promote or sell. Some fun anecdotes. I liked it! Hope more F1 drivers get to go on the show.
The Hans Zimmer anthem was a banger!
