Pan fried shawarma is something Im still trying to get used to. The Lebanese Shawarma places in Ottawa all stack the chicken on a stick rotisserie and it is cooked exactly like the lamb or beef kebabs, they then slice thin portions off of it just the same.

It wasnt until I moved out west that I ever saw Shawarma done any other way, and everything out here has been disappointing by comparison.

…and yet people not only believe this crap but try to pass it off as science.

Its actually a smaller one too. Those 5 1/4 HDDs could be 2 bays tall.

Garter snakes are harmless, they run from you and don’t bite.

I respect your opinion, but I lived through 90s computing and think dongles died the death they deserve and these phone manufacturers can go to hell for bringing them back or thinking that bluetooth audio is good enough.

Additionally most of the droids I have bought that have a jack are the perfect thickness in my mind. Weighted enough to stay in my hand and take a couple dozen drops without accident. Plus the headphone jack is used as an antenna and provides radio capabilities so I can listen to local news instead of whatever the tech industry wants to feed me. Which is a nice option.

It is, but it requires GPlay to operate and maintain your sub.

I switched to Subtracks when I dumped Google.

Its what makes it more secure. Why do you need a chat app that allows your parents to accidentally stumble into a group of con artists or kids to stumble into things they shouldn’t be exposed to? It’s a messaging app, not gamer group chat.

This is what puts is way ahead of the others.

Unlike the other two, there are no servers that run discoverable group chats.

Just adding to this, Linux is pretty ubiquitous these days, with it being found running billboards, menus, information screens, and many machines and appliances.

Though these versions are stripped down and no what you are used to from a desktop. They just have the kernel and a few services for the task at hand.

Man I miss Webrings.

Yep, I fought against it for years but eventually my new user intake was lower than the rate at which the typical user would fizzle out and move on. We had users that were there for 20 years and regulars, but without fresh ideas and posts things would get stale. So I had to yield and start adhering. Around 2018-2019 things really took a dive in traffic and I could not afford ads as it was all completely out of pocket, so I started a new codebase and rewrote it over 4 years in my spare time. The site before it shut down had a top grade from all of Googles site scanners and I had thought “Perfect… now folks will trickle in again at the right rate.”. And then the delisting.

This is why I shut The Den of Amateur Writing down after 25 years of running and developing it. I had written the entire codebase for Googles SEO, rolled out the update so my users would see a bit more traffic trickle in, and then watched them delist all my URLs 3 months later when this change rolled out. I just gave up. It was taking way too much of my life fighting googles bullshit to provide a free community.

Because I dont need to pay rent for my files and I don’t have to worry about AI and VCs trying invade my privacy.

Yeah, Im excited about the cards but getting a 1GB switch with a 10g uplink was expensive… 10g switches are… a lot.

The beauty is that you can shove Pi in it of course.

I just hoarded this gif

Trashy romance novels are also apparently entertaining but that doesn’t make them good literature. Twilight may be entertaining but the terrible grammar, word choice and plot make it a joke. Its the reality TV of novels.

Maybe they were smoking too much Majorana.
