I mean, if I’m being perfectly honest, I’d prefer not to associate with people who frequent any of the toxic chans. A middle ground where people are capable of reading or writing something peculiar without going slack-jawed would be nice, though. The line where the community suddenly turns homophobic is incredibly thin.

Completely ineffectual, though. There are too many people who cannot tolerate the absence of Reddit. The last Reddit mod strikes proved as much, as people simply let the admins dictate how, when, and why the strikes finished

I always panic a little, envisioning the vast game of pinball we’re constantly wading through, and also not because the sphere atomic model is just shorthand

No, that’s just random being random. In order for something truly random to feel less random to the average person, you have to reduce the repetition.

From what I understand, green potatoes are rendered harmless by boiling, as the poisons are water soluble. Though they are not rendered inactive by boiling, they are diffused through the water, rendering it inadvisable to reuse for boiling other foods. Following that, harvesting these poisons is relatively easy and a good way to get Cheney, that asshole, to keep to his own fucking food.

Not disagreeing, trying to keep food waste down.

“…Musk reportedly finished the meeting with his trademark helicopter heil before calling back the departing assembly to order the death of every active rescue worker. When questioned on his reasoning, he’s said to have shouted “they’re all pedophiles” before stubbing his toe on a flat floor.”

I remember those grocery store bakery breads too well. Their gooey consistency, the way they quickly dried into an inedible log, their white flesh being too moist to turn into panko without wadding. The colby’s fine, though.

Organs, mostly

Certainly not. My point was solely that their only method of deep frying would have involved lard, and I can’t say either way whether they did so

[–] Gullible@sh.itjust.works 8 points 3 days ago (3 children)

Didn’t they lose in an overwhelmingly life altering way?

Relatedly, there was a discussion here on Native Americans using oils that indicated that they did so rarely, if at all.

But native Americans did harvest lard to make protein bars, so possibly animal fat frying

 

Neighbor has short hedges rimming their yard to about ankle height. I’d like to extend them a bit every night by using my own hedge clippings, until they notice.

 

I’ve found incorrect information on there before, but this is just nonsense

What?

 

I usually watch tv while I eat, and quickly realized that horror and bisque aren’t the ideal match. $200 for me.

 

I’ve been going through some older rpgs, and I’ve found that the tutorials are both entirely out of character and mind numbing. It’s hard not to envision myself taking my time back by violence. Anyone else do something similar or am I peculiar?

 

Both instances are pointedly political and looking to spread their particular philosophies to the threadiverse. Moreover, their users aren’t exactly winning any awards for charm. Can we put it to a vote before they become a nuisance?

 

Got a used business laptop and found a recessed dongle in it. The original owner says they have no clue, that it’s been in there since they got it. There’s no way a dongle is keeping this thing running, is there? I’ve already swapped the OS, if that matters at all

Update: yubikey! Thank you all for the information, I’m definitely still learning

 

I’m starting to get back into the swing of tech at large, and found a business laptop that fits my needs for a portable low power emulation device. When I look to buy it secondhand, because I don’t intend to burn money or the environment unnecessarily, I find dozens of extremely cheap listings without drives. Are these secondhand from businesses removing and drilling the drives or is there something else going on?

Finally back in Linux after so many years! My first recent attempt was waylaid by a locked down bios beyond my ability to bypass, but I’m done! Thank you, to everyone who helped out in my previous post!

 

Final edit: having now done more research, the bios is secured and to get to boot options would essentially involve manually editing the bios with a second computer and downloading Chinese software to finish the job. I think I’m just returning this one. This is a bit beyond my skill level

I purchased a Lenovo mini pc online to turn into my second ever Linux machine (whoo), and when I tried booting it up for the first time, I found it asking for a network to sync data from an Amazon employee. I will be frank, fuck Amazon. If someone stole it, I hope the lost money was enough to cause Bezos to shit himself and die, only for a clone to rise in his place to do the same in a never-ending Sisyphean hellscape of skin peeling feculent horror. The fantasy that my holding on to this, and it is likely a fantasy, will affect Amazon is a bonus, not a detriment.

Now, that said, it was probably resold from Amazon’s stock at a decent discount, but not wiped. How can I install Linux on a machine that I don’t actually have full access to? I’m passably tech savvy, and more than willing to learn more to get back on Linux after 10 years of Microsoft pissing me off.

TLDR: How can I install Linux on an Amazon OS machine that I don’t actually have full access to?

Edit: my flash drive is ready, just struggling to get to the boot menu at this point. I can only mash so hard for so long!

 
 

I’ve been making plantain chips for a bit, and I’m always dissatisfied with them. If my plantains are too ripe, the chips can’t crunch up. Not ripe enough and they lack the slight sweetness I love.

I decided to grab the greenest ones at the market to slowly ripen them at home, but even that’s a bit wonky, as they tend to ripen on top but not the bottom, which leaves me with something peculiar and delicious, but certainly not what I’m looking for.

So, how do you consistently get plantains in the Goldilocks zone?
