Don’t let leftover rice go over 3 days in the fridge (pasta too) without freezing. I dunno if you watch chubbyemu on YouTube but he’s a doctor who covers cases where people get really messed up or die by incidents like food poisoning or other. It’s a great watch and after seeing the rice one we throw it out after 2 days.

Don’t worry it won’t be just a recession this time

Lead poisoning… It had a play in the fall of Rome . Leaded gas is giving us it’s last hoorah

Right now the only victory we have is saying “I told you so” And stocking up for the next great depression

I’m stocking up on rice and beans and survival foods as the next great depression is about to drop. If it doesn’t? I got a decade of camp food.

Every once in a great while the people of Reddit do the right thing and I’m proud of every one of them that took a stand. Even the BBC is calling it an awkward gesture and they aren’t owned by right wing billionaires in the US. Not ONE media news org here has called the obvious. Sanewashing. Wish I’d never heard the term.

Ubuntu my dude. I started fiddling with it years ago and it’s my go to when I need a good desktop / gaming system. Any distro is gonna be a steep learning curve and a great way to go about it is to get a crapola system and start banging Linux on it. You’ll be frustrated and then search and find that there is a massive amount of community support for most distros. I use a Raspberry PI 4 running Ubuntu 64 for all my AV needs… Drives the projector and stereo and also serves as a retro gaming over the projector deal. We’re all fed up with windows.

If it didn’t need a sign it didn’t need a light… some things need an indicator. A . 5 inch square bit of e ink is way better because it casts no light. And if a manufacturer thinks you need a light … Then you get a light … Need it or not. So …

If it doesn’t need a sign … It didn’t need a light.

Don’t feel bad for us. I like my pants. Even on a blistering hot day at work they keep me safer from burns and cuts and when I’m out hiking in jeans I don’t have tick problems

From an electronic tech perspective… I’ve been replacing the LEDs in anything that annoys me with a dull red and a resistor valued to keep it barely visible. It’s a tad more eloquent than tape. Most things don’t need a led at all. I’d love to see manufacturers switch to an e paper solution with a simple “on” or “off” displayed. And I hate standby led’s.

In starting to, but it’s more like the old days now where I’ll go to my list of cool sites and only if all those run out and I’m bored enough to doomscroll will I visit the R.
