When I was a teenager an American visitor wrote to our biggest newspaper calling us a shitty little 3rd world country for not serving hashbrowns. Which is how I learned what a hashbrown is. I can see why you like them, they’re in the same conceptual space as potato chips. Not sure you’ll get my buy-in as a breakfast food, though. So greasy!
- Comment on Why would anyone doordash food from a place that already does delivery? 1 month ago:

Makes sense. In my country tomato sauce has a lot of sugar in it and we put it on french fries. You wouldn’t want it in your dal.

- Comment on What's the weirdest argument you've gotten into with someone? 2 months ago:
I was working telephone company helpdesk. A customer called in demanding that I raise the priority of their ticket so the serviceman (who was in their house already) would finish the work faster. I made the mistake of trying to explain that’s not how it works.

A lot of those things seem like infotainment rather than anything genuinely useful.

It was meant to be provoking to motivate people to try to argue.
Absurd. People don’t argue on the internet.

1861? I wonder what the original poster’s ancestors were eating back then.

If you are, so am I. I was part of the BBS scene, and it didn’t survive the transition to the internet. I’ve never felt so well-understood since then. Sometimes I dream about the LAN parties and summer picnics.

Your friend is not for taking seriously.

That’s not really much of a concern unless you aim satellites directly at it. There’s plenty of space in space.

New Zealand here. Yes, public libraries have the many volumes of the legal code in the reference section.
