@PetrichorSquirrel well yeah but like if I'm nodding off or in the other room or not actively watching I'm not exactly a good advertising target

given that I feel like I didn't need to convert all my citric acid to sodium citrate, I could have just started nacho cheese sauce out by putting a pinch of each into the pot and let it react right before adding the cheese. Oh well.
okay so according to https://www.huffpost.com/entry/nacho-cheese-sodium-citrate_n_6108794 the trick is to dissolve it in a little liquid and then stir the grated cheese into the liquid
So far my experiments in actually USING it to make nacho sauce haven't been particularly successful though.
@srol sounds like the typical Twitter experience yeah
@hope it makes cheese melt smoothly
cheddar + sodium citrate = velveeta, basically
If you want to make nachos from scratch, first you must synthesize the sodium citrate.

Back in the late 90s there was a recurring gag on Slashdot where people would, for some reason, make different parody accounts of Bruce Perens, with subtle misspellings or using punctuation or whatever to get a distinct username or whatever.
I just realized that it would have been *hilarious* to have one named "Bruce's Parents" who espouse about opensource from a pure capitalist standpoint, and the last post would be "Tonight we're going to the theatre!"
