A Fediverse community for open-ended, thought provoking questions

Rules: (interactive)

1) Be nice and; have fun

Doxxing, trolling, sealioning, racism, toxicity and dog-whistling are not welcomed in AskLemmy. Remember what your mother said: if you can't say something nice, don't say anything at all. In addition, the site-wide Lemmy.world terms of service also apply here. Please familiarize yourself with them

2) All posts must end with a '?'

This is sort of like Jeopardy. Please phrase all post titles in the form of a proper question ending with ?

3) No spam

Please do not flood the community with nonsense. Actual suspected spammers will be banned on site. No astroturfing.

4) NSFW is okay, within reason

Just remember to tag posts with either a content warning or a [NSFW] tag. Overtly sexual posts are not allowed, please direct them to either !asklemmyafterdark@lemmy.world or !asklemmynsfw@lemmynsfw.com. NSFW comments should be restricted to posts tagged [NSFW].

5) This is not a support community.

It is not a place for 'how do I?', type questions. If you have any questions regarding the site itself or would like to report a community, please direct them to Lemmy.world Support or email info@lemmy.world. For other questions check our partnered communities list, or use the search function.

6) No US Politics.

Please don't post about current US Politics. If you need to do this, try !politicaldiscussion@lemmy.world or !uspolitics@lemmy.world

7) No Hit-and-Run questions.

Please don't delete your post for no apparent reason. If you plan on deleting a question later, say so in the post, or if you feel that you have a good reason to remove it, message a mod beforehand. It's not fair to the ones who took their time to answer, and it's not in the spirit of the community.

8) No Bots.

Posts or comments from bots, LLM's, AIs, Neural Networks, Transformers, or Marvin the Paranoid Android are not welcome in AskLemmy. Real humans only please.

Reminder: The terms of service apply here too.

Can anyone recommend a good food processor? Mine broke. Specifically I want it to be able to make hummus with alacrity. (sh.itjust.works)

I enjoy having multiple options and or attachments if possible, but I don't want to sacrifice any individual functionality. Something reliable would be a pre-requisite.

Chiming in to remind people to check with their library to see if it gives them full access to Consumer Reports.

I subscribe to them. But they are not ALWAYS correct, and sometimes are out of date, and sometimes it’s just numbers, without any written analysis. So I like to solicit multiple sources of opinion and experience.

And they’re quite a bit off for electronics. Rtings is WAY better.

Do you like the Rtings pick for best noise cancelling headphones? I have a knee jerk aversion to anything audio coming from Sony for sound quality, but I believe the headphones might be different?

I haven’t listened to them but they do get reviewed well almost everywhere. They have more bass by default than I like and they dip a bit in the treble which I also don’t prefer (I like slightly bright and otherwise balanced sound).

Yup! They're great. We decided to splurge for a subscription this year, but they're the GOAT when it comes to consumer reviews.

Americas Test Kitchen also recommends the Cuisinart 14 cup food processor.

Gotta confirm. It’s built like a tank and bloody heavy. Wife has had one for over 15 years and it still works as well as it did when she first got it. It may as well be commercial grade. It may be expensive but you won’t ever have to buy another.

I inherited my cuisinart food processor, it’s from the early ‘80s or so, going strong. I do use a stick blender a lot more, though.
