    You can already outsource a lot of this to Bing. If you need to know the right temperature for making french fries, you can google a bunch of “recipes” (AKA life story of the author + history + vacation photos + cooking instructions) read them through and… actually better make some coffee while you’re at it because this is going to take a while. Anyway, the other option is to ask: “Hey Bing, I’m making french fries, but I don’t know how hot the oven should be.”

    Spoiler: 220 °C

    The scary thing is, what happens when people start doing this for more important things, such as what to do if your child has swallowed something or how to parallel park your car.

          Doesn’t the very nature of being fries, require them to be fried? Otherwise, they’re baked potato sticks.

          In my just under 40 years on this rock, the only time I’ve seen someone deepfrying french fries at home has been on American TV shows. It’s a lot more popular to cook them in the oven around here.

        Correct. However, if you buy frozen ones, you do need to heat them up some way. I ran out of nuclear weapons again, my flamer was out of gasoline, so using the oven was my best option.

            Hey Spez, can you throw some more subreddits into the dumpster fire. The temperature is almost right for popping some popcorn.

      200 or 220, depends on if you are using a convection oven. But that’s beside the point, I really hope AI finally kills SEO.
