  It really depends on how bold the other flavors are. Shallots would disappear in, say, a vindaloo

  Licking things to see how they taste is the essence of science.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Increasing the surface area of a substance increases its reaction rate. Proof by garlic.⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨day⁩ ago⁩:

  Food science is probably my favorite science

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Increasing the surface area of a substance increases its reaction rate. Proof by garlic.⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  Eat them raw and you can taste their screams

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Increasing the surface area of a substance increases its reaction rate. Proof by garlic.⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  This is also partially due to more cells in the garlic being crushed and the intracellular compounds reacting with things on the outside.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Microplastics go brrrrr!⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  Coming out of the trees leaving the oceans becoming multicellular existing was a mistake

  Counter-offer: I half-ass it and use soft drugs

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Anyone in tech confirm?⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  I have dreamed of this life since before I was in tech.

  I was born in a passive-solar, earth-sheltered house that my dad designed and built himself. Instead of a stack of Playboys he had Mother Earth News in the back of the closet. My parents owned one of the first Priuseseses in the US.

  For a wonderful few years I had this life. I raised pigs and chickens and managed my property. I got into the best shape of my life, physically and mentally, and just stepping out of my front door made me feel more alive than I’ve felt since I had to move back to the burbs. (I don’t think people realize how little oxygen they get in urban and suburban environments.)

  Though I am stuck in the suburbs for now I am determined to get back to that. I would rather wake up to a hungry pig tearing apart its enclosure than to another fucking meeting.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Anyone in tech confirm?⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  I have a business plan ready for raising heirloom breeds of pigs and expensive ingredients and selling them to fancy restaurants. If I can get the right connections I can make it a profitable business. Damn near broke even on four hogs last time, even with setup costs.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Anyone in tech confirm?⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  The longer I work in tech the less I’m impressed by new tech. I don’t want the latest and greatest phone. I don’t need a crazy gaming PC. I don’t need or want a bunch of smart devices. I want a few useful things that I can manage myself, and the freedom to wake up to no alarm except the livestock.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Anyone in tech confirm?⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  Same and I graduated high school in the year 2000.

  Still working on that.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Anyone in tech confirm?⁩ ⁨⁨6⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  I’ve lived in the countryside with a bunch of tech in my basement and it was still better than living in the suburbs

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Anon lives on a budget⁩ ⁨⁨6⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  Clearly government has failed in limiting their power.

  It took depressingly long for this to be posted

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Nat 20⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  They can be used for that, but there’s no evidence of wear on them from that usage and there’s simpler tools for that job

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Nat 20⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  I’m wondering if these have anything to do with the dodecahedron that they find in Roman areas in northern europe

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Nat 20⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  So Romans actually rolled for initiative?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Silage Corn - 14' (4.3m) tall⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  I guess corn does grow as high as an elephant’s eye

  Dodge v. Ford says so

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨U.S. consumers are so fucked up, that they put more than $1 billion on buy-now, pay later services during Cyber Monday⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Cyber Monday is funny because it started with people buying things at work so it wouldn’t show up in their shared computers’ browser history, and now it’s like a whole made-up thing

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Where are the arms bearers?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Imagine the backlash the folks with the monopoly on violence would have if someone used violence against them.
