Sounds of Beast In Black, if power metal was mixed with Abba, of course!

And in the present I've fallen back to using flash drives, because every cloud file hosting service is unreliable or a privacy nightmare. History is like a usb stick you keep rotating until it fits.

But do not watch the sequel. It ruins the whole beautiful thing.

It continues marching on as The Eye.

Huh, this stirs some memories about a cabbage, carrots and potato 'gruel'/stew our mother used to make when I was a kid in the early 90's. Our country was in bad economic depression at the time, and our family was having it hard. I remember hating it as a kid.

I think I'm gonna improvise a pot of something similar in the weekend, maybe I'll appreciate it more nowdays.

Thank you for sharing.

Fancy peasant's gruel (lemmy.dbzer0.com)

My fancy peasant's gruel. Semolina gruel that turned into porridge like consistency (see I can afford the wheat, no need to water it down) with cut up wiener pieces in it. I'm sometimes fancy like this.

Its working for me now, I tested it this morning. Even tried swithching the user agent back to Firefox and yep - Youtube gets magically some buffering problems with it.

Close youtube tab, switch user agent back to chrome, clear cache and restart the browser: no buffering problems. What a bunch of assholes.

I've reported this earlier to EU competition ombudsman, like a about a year ago, and they confirmed then that they were getting reports about the issue, Google of course denying the practice. Hopefully they are working on some punishment for Google in the background.

What was the so called spiritual part of abstaining from these, or in in general, on this whole thing? No need to answer if you dont feel like it or whatever, just thank you for your insights.

How many security guards can one of these assholes have on duty at any one time?

Dont y'all have assault rifles and semiautomatics on you at all times and you are all about being against tyranny? WHAT GIVES?

Little over four years smokeless for me too, after 20 years of smoking. High five for the quitter crew!

Sadly I still get cravings almost weekly.

Probably not flying, though.

On special occasions I grind coffee beans with a small wooden frame coffee grinder my grandparents got as wedding present sometime in the 1930's. Made and gifted for the couple by the grooms brother.

This might be obvious to you, but dont buy HP laptops. I've twice been tempted by the cheap price, twice I've been burned. Cant wait till this current piece of shit croaks and I have an excuse to buy something stable and without endless amount of bloatware.

"Pain dog" pain hook (lemmy.dbzer0.com)

A pain hook (self-use massage device for the neck and back) made from a pine branch. Snoopy-like dog appeared from the branch while whittling, hence the name.

Lightly stained with walnut colour stain and a light beeswax layer on top of that so it feels smooth on the skin. Handle made from old repurposed leather belt strips.

These pain hooks are an old Finnish and Karelian thing for massaging one's neck and back, and I was wondering if these sort of self-care "devices" are known and in use in other cultures?
