Then why use plural people? You pre-emptively complained about something that wasnt much of an issue and then got upset when people got excited about a silly physics puzzle/riddle?

I dunno accepting death as an inevitability seems important since since we otherwise struggle hard to ignore it in western culture and by extension can create a lot of suffering.

I think people forget how much MRE style preserved food drove the nation for a bit and why a lot of good cooking was lost for a period.
Than maximalist cooking using all theass produced food followed and it’s all atrocities for a while.

You know what… The more I hear about this calendar the more I like it.
A celebration day that doesn’t count… That’s neat.

Right the workers and the rich architects could no longer understand each other, the city collapsed as suddenly there was vastly different lives being lived by those doing the work and those planning the work…
Totally God’s fault, cause that like never happens.

Oh shit, English and French required, arbitrary expiration date because it’s not required.
You should be a detective I think you nailed it in one.

Did you know you can store smoked salmon at room temp pretty much indefinitely in an unopened package?
Food storage has gotten really good, all the tricks of smoke, sugar or salt of our ancestors with now radiation sterilization and other cool tricks with science.
All that to say. It’s probably fine. You just bought it and I’m sure this was made to last as long as it can as reliably as it can so that they don’t lose money.Most best buy dates are just made up anyways and not based on much. Check for gas build up, a weird odor, extreme discoloration, or foreign objects or growths. That will get you through pretty much every rotten food type without having to taste it.
That’s said, where are you shopping that has a mixture of Japanese, Chinese, French, and robot codes?

I have. Trains hurt anyways so be glad you don’t want to.

Meh, I want to leave nothing behind. Live like I die, and no one is allowed in on it. A death just for me.
I want to leave no mark. May my flesh rot and become the earth, may my bones crumble to dust and become fertilizer, may my grave be unmarked and unknown except for the plants that feed upon me.
Legacy is for the ego and mine doesn’t exist. The world is a mess and it doesn’t need me tugging futilely on the wisps of strings I can barely reach, hoping to unravel a knot that others keep tying.
I’m glad you found joy, I am tired of people, and have nothing left to share.

It’s like Netflix. Overwhelmed by choice but yet not enough time to have a strong emotional connection to what it is you are doing.
So you just scroll.
I get it from a job that snipes me out of fun moments that’s 24/7 breathing down my back. Oh what you give up to stay alive.
But I also just do the fun stuff anyways. Or the stuff I said I would do. Because I agreed with myself to do it. - Comment on Still wondering why people from Alaska didn't post about the eclipse 5 weeks ago:
I… Disagree. But I’m a space nerd anyways so the thought of 2 celestial bodies as far away as they are from each other to be such a perfect ratio that they basically perfectly overlap, to be just the neatest little cosmic joke on our improbable planet. It’s a fun quirk and being at all able to see it is neat.
Also, I’m sorry but I was in northern Appalachian where for like half an hour it got slowly darker by just a little bit at a time and by the time it got mostly covered a perfect cloud coverage hit to make it viewable from the naked eye behind the clouds as a crescent for the next hour and it was very cool to see that sliver of crescent sun just hanging up there.
It was neat for not being totality.

Which part?
The ropes going nowhere? The weird perspective? The incredibly elongated forearm? Or the fact that it’s a white Jesus that looks like a carving which isn’t at all accurate.
- Comment on get infamous, yeah! 5 weeks ago:
Finger hands! Finger hands! Holy shit look at those finger hands!
Is it accurate? No it’s not! Just look at those creepy finger hands.
AI… loves to make crappy hands. - Comment on life pro tip!! 5 weeks ago:
You know it’s funny, technically a calorie is just a measure of how much energy it takes to heat up 1 gram of water 1° C I never really thought about it but it could totally be applied to other things and nuclear reactor plants that literally just heat up water to spin a turbine would be the perfect thing to measure in calories. So would regular electric plants for that matter.
Oh shoot that would be some wild math to figure out how hungry they all are.
- Comment on Anon buys an air fryer 1 month ago:
Cuisinart are perfectly awesome toaster ovens and even nice convection but their air frying is mostly just ok. I think their budget options are their best stuff since will work just as well and is as reliable as Cuisinart gets.
Ninja has some kind of secret sauce cause their air frying capabilities in their toaster ovens puts single purpose air fryers to shame. Shockingly good but I am always concerned about longevity since seconds from throwing the baby out with the bathwater if they think they have a new device to sell. But these toaster ovens do seem to last. And it’s hard to make them proprietary like other products.
Tl;Dr: if you mostly just care about having a larger more capable air fryer ninja is your answer and they work great. If you want max size the Foodi XL is good and can be got on sale for around the same price as the smaller flip up one but is far more usable as an oven and more.
- Comment on Anon buys an air fryer 1 month ago:
You mean the Wikipedia article that is literally about convection ovens and has a subheader for air dryers and literally a line where people agree that some convection ovens are better at producing crispier food than air fryers? That smoking barrel of an article?
Man it almost looks like the OOP wrote both.
- Comment on Anon buys an air fryer 1 month ago:
Ok I hear you and offer the far superior, microwave + convection toaster oven (air fryer toaster oven ok just don’t get a bad one)
Toaster oven beats the issue of huge amount of wasted energy and heat and convection is basically 80% of the way to air fryer and also will make general baking faster and more even. So you can use them in place of the oven for lots of things.
Cheap air fryer toaster ovens are often crap though and more just garbage air fryer that opens differently. Don’t buy those.

Man all this needs is:

And you will know how much Elsevier actually cares about this.

You can actually turn that off in the Roku settings. I did when I saw it demanding I watch my content from my PC on their shitty ad bloated sponsors.
I am now realizing it might be more work than it’s worth for Roku even though I used to prefer their systems being a bit more stable.

Personally I was a fan of buying something like a Dell optiplex as my my NAS and Pihole but I do wish I had a better enclosure for the drives as any truly good one seems to be hundreds of dollars and mildly defeats the idea of self hosting being cheaper.
- Comment on I got this popup ad on my TV **while watching a DVD** 4 months ago:
Well I guess that explains why my Roku TV is the worst culprit for hammering my pihole… Holy shit.

It’s a chore to do that requires little direct thought or input in a complex world full of too much to do? Seems like it scratches a similar itch to the cosy gamers accept with more fun to the audience that doesn’t like pulling weeds

Well you need to grind a bit to unlock stuff and get the gold but you can get the option to reroll and then lancet and laurel are the main things to being practically unkillable with enough leveling.
But for early level seriously just upgrade whip and get the heart. You now heal and do near constant damage. And then get garlic and just work on maxing out any item one at a time. And you will keep going until the waves become bullshit. Keep doing until you literally grind ypur way to buying your way into the end game.
Yay needless grinding.

Man, I just don’t get that from vampire survivors. I loved Binding of Isaac and can’t stand vampire survivor or brotato as the endless waves just seem… Boring and then the builds seem obvious and usually pretty easy to force.
I just never get that pull to do one more round.
