Yo I didn’t know reader view existed what. That’s amazing thank you.
However, I’ve never encountered any problems with unmodified ublock, worked perfectly out of the box for me. On the rare case that I come across a website that wants me to disable my adblocker I simply do not care enough about whatever is on that website to do so.
(Edit)
Alright so I tried it on a few websites and got a “cannot complete request” page as well as “Additional information about this problem or error is currently unavailable.” Pressing try again did not help
Hamas is the rightful government of Gaza, they politically took over in 06 when Fatah lost the election. they are more legitimate than the occupation forces of the entity.
Maybe it’s different in the states, but Domino’s is ridiculously overpriced for pizza in the UK (yes I know you can always find a voucher), you can get two neapolitan pizzas and change for the price of some of the pizzas on the Domino’s menu.
Not really sure how they’re still afloat over here simply beyond existing momentum
Other than LC who is cheaper? Only a fool orders pizza without a coupon so I’m assuming that’s being taken into account given the prevalence (that’s part of their pricing strategy, it’s built in).
I kinda dig the bland crust. Not for eating, but for not eating. Like, sometimes you’d rather your calories come from toppings, and saving the crust for the next day to dip in those shitty marinara cups when you’re tired as hell is a good thing.
Like, not often, but sometimes.
Then again, we don’t do pizza often, and it’s usually when all adults are fucking wrecked via some bullshit or another that pushed us past our limits (both me and my wife are disabled, and my dad is old as fuck lol). If we want pizza to really enjoy I make it myself, or order it from the two yankees that set up a shop in town.
It’s good for sprinkling in the lawn of my bird-phobic neighbor. HOA wouldn’t let me get a Turkey to keep in the yard so I’ll attract a wild one damn it.
Can’t speak for the US as a whole but everywhere I’ve lived Domino’s is the cheapest. I can get a medium 2 topping pizza at dominoes for $6.99. We have 3 family run traditional pizza places within driving distance of where I live, for a 2 topping medium pizza they cost: $14.75, $15.99, or $18.99.
there is an authentic italian pizza place around the corner from me where I can get two 16 inch peporoni pizzas for 15 quid which are 20xs better than the slop dominos provides
Imagine actually eating dominos when you have NY american pizza avilable lmao
Well for a raw performance the 40 might be a tiny bit better, but the lesser vram is probably more of an issue when gaming. And the price is just crazy
I know it’s a meme, but this is a dumb take. You’re comparing two very different things, and they serve two different purposes. Sometimes you want to crush some fast food at 2 am after drinking at the pub, sometimes you want to have really good pizza where less is more and the quality of the ingredients matter. Eat both and be happy you have pizza.
The Dutch and British just took home the natives of their colonies as immigrants who opened restaurants. Why try to emulate when you can get the real deal?
If I hear that an Indian restaurant locally has been busted by immigration, I immediately head round.
Also, the reason most British food is bland is because of rationing during WW2. People who grew up back then ate food which was made with limited resources and that was the food they felt nostalgic for and made for their children, who then went on to make it for their own children.
France is (mostly) not an island and they weren’t besieged during WWII.
I’ve also heard that Britain rolling early with the Industrial Revolution meant that they got the big cities quicker and fed them with bland canned goods before they worked out the fresh goods logistics.
Cheese eating surrender monkeys. Created a state of the art defence system but didn’t extend it across the gap where ‘the Germans will never invade through such rough terrain’ although they did before during WWI.
Not just during but long after (well into the 1950s). People generally don’t understand that Britain literally bankrupted herself holding out against Germany, then got to watch as the former Axis powers rebounded faster than they did.
Less we bankrupted ourselves and more the Americans bankrupted us. America put a lot of effort in the early 20th century to undermining the influence of the BE and was far more concerned with building up west Germany as a barrier to the Soviets than they did with building back up allies like the UK and France.
This was around the 2010. It was about six to seven years since we migrated to New Mumbai - it was a new city, but it was a nice place. Not heavily cramped like Old Mumbai, fresh air, lots of greenery and poor and rich neighbourhoods weren’t seperated. We could only afford eating restaurant food once in a month. I was around 8 to 9 years old. As a lower-class Indian family, eating “American junk” was considered bourgie and posh during those days. When I mean lower-class, I’m talking about having no home appliances, like fridge, washing machine, A.C. or any of those stuff. Just a bunch of sleeping-mats, utensils and an old CRT T.V.
It so happened that during those days, Domino’s also started advertising their tacos. As kids, me and my sibling were fascinated by this American, “white-people” food. That day, we were supposed to eat some tandoori tikka chicken, roti and non-veg biriyani. We threw a tantrum, asking my dad to buy one of those new taco product - one of those boxes had two “large” tacos. Well, we ordered it.
And lo, behold, the delivery guy brings in the “American delight”. Well, at first, we were caught a little off-guard, because the box was tiny. Must be just our imagination , we thought. So my dad asks the delivery guy if that was the right order. He gives a weird look and leaves. So, we go running to the basin, wash our hands, and come back prancing. Open the box, and to our horror, we see two tiny, itty-bitty macron-sized tacos (never saw a macron in person, but I’m assuming it must be pretty small). And the taste? It felt like eating wall-paint flakes.
We ate one of those tacos, and my dad asks if we’re still hungry. Well, we did not complain. That day, both mom and dad slept hungry. ₹110 for a bunch of American crap, and we could have enjoyed a hearty Punjabi cuisine.
It was also after I started browsing over the internet, that I realised that fast-food restaurants target peasants and wage-slaves in their own land, and ironically, they sell it over here as if one of the many thousand gods kissed the dough while kneading.
Didn’t order their pizzas using my own money, but when I had the chance to visit my rich classmate’s birthday party, they would bring it, and it tasted like paperboard. This is a story for another time, but what basically happened was that I got a chance to visit a culinary school somewhere in Panvel, and the first-year guy over there made the best, Indi-Italian fusion pizza and pasta. Yes, we didn’t get a large slice, just a few bites, because it was a school trip, and there were a lot of students. But that was the best Italian dish I’ve experienced in my life.
Moral of the story: Fuck Domino’s and every other fast food restaurants except KFC.
I feel like Punjabi cuisine is over-represented in the west, especially the first one. Almost every “Trying out Indian dish” video is Eastern Punjabi stuff, there’s hardly any Pakistani or alt-North Indian stuff. Not saying that it is bad, but that’s kind of like eating greasy American stuff - eating donuts and cheeseburgers once in a while is fine, but too much is just not good from a health-perspective.
What’s sad is that you folks haven’t tried Marathi dishes - I had the privilege of visiting Satara and Lonavla, which are two amazing places in Maharashtra, which is extremely under-rated - surprisingly, it is also very much under-represented in Mumbai, perhaps due to the influx of North Indian migrants. Yes, most of it is spicy, even by Indian standards, but they’re amazing. Especially Srikhand and Sabudana Khicdhi (sabudana pearls are made of tapioca, but they’re transparent-coloured, instead of being black like boba pearls). I’d also give a thumbs up to Konkani, Malabari and also (our) Mangalorean cuisine - my favourite being the Udupi-style Masala Dosae paired with Bringal-Moringa Sambar, and also the classic Sheera-Upma combo.
I feel you, variety is the spice of life (but that’s only after a vicious battle against cumin that could have gone either way).
That sounds awesome, I’m on the Wikipedia pages for a couple of those rn and you’re spot on. Nothing like it around me, but there is a Pakistani place that does Charsi Karahi with goat and it’s “viable contender for last meal” tier.
I need to learn how to make some Marathi food, when you said “spicy by Indian standards” you convinced me lol.
Thank you for sharing all this information and stuff. Not what I expected from a pizza shitpost.
