ya so thats exactly what i was talking about. Thats how all cold water crab are sold, but anyways the normal way to prepare that would just be to steam it in a steamer like you are steaming vegetables. But you are just heating it up really, its fully cooked. you could thaw it out and eat it cold if you wanted. Don't recommend.

If you are using it IN a dish you thaw it out and shell it, then just put it in whatever you want. (crab cakes or w/e)

But usually people buy pre shelled crab for that, and when they buy legs or clusters they want to serve them shell in for the presentation.

(ps. those are basically the type of crab i have access to catching myself this time of year for personal use. Snow crab is kind of a market name. Most people here refer to them as "tanner crab", but technically there is two types. Baradai and Opilio those are probably the latter.)

I mean, they really are. Mostly they just can't use voice chat outside of party queue. It's not a new problem either, I remember this being an issue in HoN back in 2009/2010 where most of the female players I knew did not use mic in game. I've often wondered how many of them have tried "I'm not a woman, I'm a 12 year old boy" excuse though.
It isn't exactly an exclusive problem to Dota/Mobas though, online games in general have that issue. Even on games with fairly high female player counts like WoW it can be an issue.

edit:
It's not really a problem at higher mmrs, because women are even rarer there, and because anyone at that level expects lots of flame anyways.

There is a reason my wife and every girl I dated never used voice chat in video games.

But lets be real: Women be treated like shit a lot. Video games are not special.

I'm pretty sure I'm toxic to everyone not just females so, as long as I think people are bad I'm probably gonna flame them, I personally can't decide about giving "girl gamers" as they're called, special treatment though like letting it slide when they make a mistake I would literally flame anyone else for or always saving a spot for them in my parties or whatever, all of which I think is somewhat common based on my experiences

People will still wish you the worst in life regardless of who you are if the player thinks you're ruining his game. In this case i don't think it even matters if you are a girl or which country you belong.

Players wil sayl every single possible angle they could to hurt other players.

Tbh trash talks like "hope something happens to your family" or the get cancer stuff is alot worse than the misogynistic stuff thrown on girls.

Like players haven't degraded other players for the most ridiculous reasons ever such as missing last hits lol

Anybody who wants to play dota (even girls) should realize the reality that doter has a very mean playerbase who will say just about anything mean you could come up with out of frustration or just plain toxicity. This is one of the "deal with it" cases but if the girl felt the attack from another player too personal that's where either no-voicechat or just quit the game comes in.

The flame won't stop whether we like it or not, The amount of racial stuff i hear in pubs is ridiculous tbh (insert all racial slur here on sea pubs) hell i even hear insults about the other player being poor or having no future in life (geez what people are willing to say)

Ideally the community would be friendly and nice and those who are flamey get isolated in their own personal queing hell but the reality is that people will flame people. They don't get exempted from it neither do we.

Outside video games tho. I do hear my friends (most of my friends are girls) complain to me about being disrespected

most angry people in games will pick whatever they can use to hurt you. gender, race, nationality etc....

all the arguments assume: you did something wrong, you get flamed.
reality is: you're a woman, you get shit comments

I don’t really buy into the whole “If you want to play this game, you must accept that people will treat you like shit,” because it concedes the space to shitty people. It also means that no one really can complain, because it is bad for everyone. If that is the reality, remove all chat and voice chat from the game because it is clearly a tool for shit bags.

The reality is that the game is like that because Valve doesn’t’ give a shit and will let the player base abuse each other because they are making money. And that means that women won’t want us voice chat because they know Dota is a safe space for people to say terrible shit just because they have a voice that sounds like a woman.

I like Dota as a game, but let us not kid ourselves and think that this is some unsolvable problem. It is just a problem that would take a lot of effort and Valve is to busy making a pay to win card game with no proxies.
