  • When I was younger, we moved around a lot, and as side effect of that, we paid for a storage unit to hold less frequently used stuff. Around the time I started high school, we managed to buy a house, and moved everything from the storage unit into our home. In it there was a picnic basket that I had never seen before. I remember looking inside and finding a horrible smelling bag of "bread" which was actually a black liquid with lumps in it. There was also some individually wrapped cheese slices which visually speaking were indistinguishable from any I could buy in the store today.

  • Just to give a shout out to my boss when I worked as a mechanic, I'd like to say "get the fuckin' torch. She's hogged up tighter than a nuns cunt" and also a "she shakes like a sick whore shiting blood". Lastly, I'll add "fuck you shit whore fucking cunt"

    Duane, you made amazing progress in the world of profanity and you were an amazing mentor.

    Thank you.

  • I think I was the bullet my relationships dodged. I didn't realize how broken my childhood was and how shitty I treated my girlfriends. I don't know what changed. Maybe it was just putting some distance between me and my family, but something let me develop a little perspective. I wish I could go back and apologize to so many exes.

  • I'm sure there are opinions both ways. I think the reason Fedora is the headline is because it is the more recent addition. Lenovo has had an Ubuntu option on some machines for a few years now. Fedora is a fairly recent addition.

  • I don't remember where I was made aware of it, but it was probably this. I used to listen to NSTAAF regularly. This fact probably just got buried in the back of my head until it had the opportunity to come out now.

  • This was a really recent realization for me. I am one of the people who can voluntarily activate the tensor tympani muscles in my ears to create a low level rumbling sound. I recently tried explaining this to someone else and they still think I am making it up.

  • Everyone says they want their kids to be happy but acts as if it is more important for their kids to be professionally successful.

    I want my kid to be successful enough to be independent and then put any additional emphasis on enjoying life.

    I bought a soup thermos.

    I started a job where I don't have any access to a kitchen to warm up food. On a whim, I bought an insulated thermos to bring hot food in. I tried it for the first time yesterday, and I have to say it was so pleasant to have have an instantly ready hot meal when I stopped to have lunch.

    Hot Sauce @lemmy.world

    What's your preferred method for testing a new hot sauce?

    I realized every time I get a new hot sauce, I usually make potatoes and eggs for breakfast and try the sauce on that for the first time. Not that I think it's a superior method, I just noticed it's something I do.

    What about you?

    What's your go-to method when you get something new?

    so, we're doing sushi, eh?

    I was never big on photographing my food but I found this one particularly pretty. It was over a decade ago, and I don't remember what restaurant it was. Somewhere in NYC.

    • What are things you like to cook that are better the second day?

    I find most foods are best as soon as they are made, but some things seem to get better when the flavors have more time to meld. The only two I can think of right now are chili and hummus. What other dishes am I forgetting, or haven't tried that you think get better with a little time?

    What is this connector called?

    I want to replace one half of this with longer wire, but I am not confident about the name of the connector used.
