You still need an extension to automatically open specific sites in their own containers. I genuinely don’t get why.
I swapped back to Firefox a couple of months ago. I am of the opinion that all browsers ought use the same engine, but Google shouldn’t be given more of a chokehole on the web than they already have. It’s troubling enough as it is.
That said, Firefox not supporting basic things like selectively turning off JS for websites, or vertical tabs without using wonky and inelegant third party extensions (and ui-chrome editing!) is honestly ridiculous.
C#. Since I’m a .NET developer it’s the stack I’m most familiar with.
Honestly I kind of like the idea of a front end with as little JS as possible.
I hadn’t even thought about that. Thank you.
The thing that trips me up most about this subject is that 140 years ago, pork fat was very good for seasoning cast iron. Today, it isn’t, because the composition of the fat has changed significantly.
That sounds very interesting! Is it because of the way pigs are raised now compared to back then? They eat way fewer babies now, I bet.
Minute Food did a video on this recently.
To be fair, some of our walls are a bit more hollow, and can be easily drilled into. I wonder if they’re more or less drywall. Though I don’t think you could punch through them without hurting yourself. There’s this part of me that now wishes to try, but it’s like as best we don’t find out. 😅
You can buy portable camping stoves that use propane as well. If your kitchen cant heat enough, then that is a useful tool to have. Honestly I’d say it’s decently useful overall in case of a blackout or something.
IKEA. It’s stainless steel with non-stick. It’s the only non-stick thing I have, and I’m desperate to be rid of it.
Having a non-stick wok is incredibly frustrating because it doesn’t handle high temperatures, and a lot of recipes I’d like to do require high temperatures. Like good luck trying to make chili oil in this thing, I have to use a regular stainless steel pot for that - which works fine. I like making Cantonese style scrambled eggs which isn’t really possible in a pot and it doesn’t come out right in the wok since you can’t heat it enough, meaning the egg doesn’t set fast enough.
I don’t think drywall is a thing in apartments here. Growing up I always thought that “punching through the wall” was something they put in for comedic effect, because here you’d just crush your hand.
Do you not clean your utensils?
Weirdly, a dough scraper. It’s not because of the measurement conversions, I don’t think I’d ever noticed them up until now actually. It’s just a really solid dough scraper. I use it for dough, but I’ve also used it for so many other things, like assembling/disassembling furniture, patching holes in the wall, wrapping furniture in a vinyl sheet. Loads of various tasks.
Every so often you find that you need a solid, flat, steel thing, and this comes in handy every single time.
Yeah, the way I see it; if you buy a fancy kitchen knife or two, you better also buy whetstones and learn how to sharpen properly. Those knives can be great, but they also need good care.
If you buy the cheapo IKEA knife set of 3 for $12, you might as well use a rubbish sharpener. It’ll do the job, and the knives are borderline disposable. The lifetime of them won’t really matter much in the grand scheme of things.
I feel this. I use my wok for everything. Would like to upgrade to a carbon steel one.
I misread it as “Widows” and got a bit concerned for a second.
Oh yeah, absolutely. I’m not saying that obesity is good, but I also don’t think we can judge people for it. If someone is learning how to love themselves, who are we to stand in their way for it?
Maybe they need that self love to push them forward and lose that weight? Maybe not. Regardless I don’t think telling people how they should or shouldn’t dress will bring anyone any sort of good.
It’s that old saying “if you don’t have anything good to say, perhaps don’t say anything at all.”
We all have our own attractions, that’s fine. However, people don’t have to meet our standards of beauty to exist and take part in society.
