- Comment on Why do russian parents insist on being treated to home cooked meals? 2 months ago:
There’s a common old world view that going to a restaurant is either for rich people with too much money or for stupid people that don’t know how to cook. So it’s more a class based frugality thing that then also is a comfort thing because doing something outside the norm would be to be in public and not be in a private space where everyone can be themselves and follow the usual family dynamics. Restaurants are also commonly a special occasion thing too but seems your folks don’t have the memo on that one. Devils advocate, they probably want you to save your money and want more quality time with you and give you the “opportunity” to host them as they have done for you and others in the past and probably they enjoyed doing so?

- Comment on Should I replace my laptop battery, and are third-party batteries safe? 2 months ago:
I replaced a dell xps13 with a battery from ifixit two years ago and it gave it a new lease on life. Battery went from 20mins at best, to hrs of use in a day which is amazing and it’s still going strong. So yeah, replace it and reclaim your hardware and don’t give into this disposable, planned obsolescence world.

The suppression of knowledge and non-conservative views by American politicians and fundamentalist groups is all lip service when it comes to banning books because information these days is no longer bound to libraries it’s on the internet.
