We get birthdays off, not counting towards the 30 days paid holidays, which is completely separate from unlimited paid sick days. Oh, and also since last Wednesday, the entire company is on holidays, we’re back 2nd week of January. Doesn’t count towards the 30 days, of course 👍

Newer bathrooms here just don’t have doors. Just to right angles. Can’t see in from the outside, but don’t need to touch a door handle.
It’s perfect.

Not completely, but yes. But in pan with some oil and fry them, as you’d do with the Gunciale

I’ve recently been enjoying this recipe: essen-und-trinken.de/…/57421-rzpt-wirsing-pie
And my go-to is to make Carbonara, but replace the Lancaster/Guanciale with 2-3 of the outer, leathery savoy leaves cut into black width strips (vegetarian carbonara, basically).

Had both. So many people here have recommended different Brussels sprout recioes that I want comment on this. But steamed or boiled broccoli just sucks compared to seared or roasted.

Deal

Salad + garlic bread. Final offer.
- Comment on Zero to Hero 1 month ago:
So why not just do bread?

I’ll be honest, those look ok. Might try them and maybe upgrade to 0.75/5.

A recent survey (n=1) has come to the following conclusions regarding goodness of members of the Brassica family:
- broccoli: 5/5. Godly. Fry in pan on very high heat, severly searing the outside, but keeping the inside crisp.
- savoy: 4.5/5. Very versatile. Easy to grow yourself. Smells amazing.
- kale: 4.5/5. Must have in winter.
- green cabbage: 4.5/5. Cheers from Sauerkraut country!
- turnip: 3/5. Alright. Sometimes nice to have. Great raw with dip.
- cauliflower: 2/5. Tastes like nothing. Only this high up because my
control groupgirlfriend loves it. - Brussel sprouts: 0.5/5. Technically edible.
- Broccoli, cooked: warcrime.

- Comment on We lost Keanu 2 months ago:
Because while he dresses it up as scientific theories, he’s just spewing unfounded conspiracy theories?
Because this stuff is a conversation starter in the same way that “the moon landing was staged”, “the earth is flat” and “chemtrails turn the frogs gay” is?
Because instead of actual scientific education or archeological documentaries, this is the shit that gets funded? Because who knows how many people will now believe that his fanfiction of a theory is a legitimate interpretation of humanity’s history?
I’m sorry, I don’t mean to come off as condescending, I really don’t. But his entire “documentary” is deeply unserious at best, and an outright lie at worst.

And possibly a drinkijg problem afterwards

That idea is just as ridiculous.

Inhave the original A5 from Supernote, and while the device still works just fine after 5 years (also I think I never had to change a nib even once), I’ve grown disillusioned with the company.
It came down to the A5 or the rM2 for me hack then. I liked everything about the A5 better, EXCEPT that the rM2 allowed you to mod it and access it via SSH.
The A5 runs on a slim version of Linux. So I asked Supernote if they’d consider opening SSH for users. And they said “Yes! It’s actually in our roadmap for the next release!”
And that’s been the answer I’ve been getting for the past 5 years. The last update for the device was about 3 years ago.
I love that the tablet is running plain Linux, but it suuuuuucks that I can’t use it to its full potential because the sync options suck.

In case RPG includes JRPG for you: Both Nier:Automata and Nier:Replicant play fantastic in the deck, and those games are far more enjoyable with a controller instead of keyboard and mouse
