Because the food is almost always going to be salted several times during cooking, but pepper is best put on very fresh afterward and isn’t necessarily used on everything.
But also: Where do you have to ask for salt? I’ve never been to even a fancy place that didn’t keep salt on the table.
I remember some army video on STDs from the 40’s or 50’s that was riffed on by the MST3K dudes that had a guy say when he had an itch in his dingus, he would “just douche the canal with whiskey.”
Knowing about Napoleon’s blunder at trying to invade Russia, and Hitler doing something similar in WW2 while also being supposedly a fan of Napoleon, I always like to say that Hitler admired Napoleon so much, he emulated even his failures.
He fell ill in one of the deepest caves? That sounds ominous as fuck. What if he found some new bacteria or virus and getting him out is what starts the zombie apocalypse? 😱
I absolutely love my RGB smart bulbs. I remember when they first came out with smart lights and you not only needed the right bulb, but the smart bits were in the lamp, so you needed a special lamp too.
Being able to just buy smart bulbs and use them in anything is awesome. The ones I got can even be linked with IFTTT so I can do crazy shit like make the lights in my room react to my games.
I’ve been thinking about UI recently because of BG3 and Starfield.
Larian has a really smart idea with theirs by having a totally different UI when playing with a controller over M&KB. It’s not perfect, but they are so vastly different and perfect for either way you’re controlling. They seem to understand what does and doesn’t work for either way you would play the game.
Then I started playing Starfield and, you know… It’s Bethesda. The UI is what it is in their games, like always. Optimized for controllers, and just controllers. For viewing on a TV and not a small screen. It also was a bit confusing with the 4 square menu, the first thing you see when pressing escape/start. If you have to give me a tutorial on how to navigate your menus: your menus suck.
I live in the US. Sex, even just plain boring vanilla sex, is such a taboo topic. Everyone’s uncomfortable about it, and that sucks. I think it’s interesting, and fun, and there’s so many things to talk about from actual activities to social constructs and more.
Whenever it comes up, I nerd out the same way I would when talking about a game I am currently obsessing over.
A lot of hacking is actually social engineering. It’s not hard to get a tech-illiterate person to give up their password, and that’s the softest target for an attack.
