Merwyn,

Just buy blocks of basic hard soap. Better for your skin and your plumbing. I don’t know if it’s cheaper compared to your 10L bottle, but it’s definitely cheaper compared to normal liquid soap bottles.

Merwyn,

They forbid us to add our ssh keys in some server machines, and force us to log in these servers with the non-personal admin account, with a password that is super easy to guess and haven’t been changed in 5 years.

Louis Rossman/FUTO's YouTube app, GrayJay, now supports Sponsorblock... and shames you if you use it

Seriously this was very surprising. I’ve been experimenting with GrayJay since it was announced and I largely think it’s a pretty sweet app. I know there are concerns over how it isn’t “true open source” but it’s a hell of a lot more open than ReVanced. Plus, I like the general design and philosophy of the app....

Merwyn,

I may be wrong but from what I’ve heard from some “small” content creator on YouTube the money from the sponsored talks in their video is a much bigger part of their income than money from youtube coming from the YouTube-selected ads that play before/during the video.

Also, this part do not give any money to YouTube and do not use/collect any data on you.

Merwyn,

And it’s much more green than solar if you consider only greenhouse gas emission over the whole lifetime, including construction. But there are other problems for sure.

Merwyn,

Ok I knew my data were old but I wasn’t expecting such a change. I based my answer on the latest “complete” report I knew and it was from 2011. I was expecting the solar to reduce emission as the technology improved obviously, but I found it very strange that the nuclear emission was higher in your source than in the one from 2011. After reading carefully it turns out that the change in safety and regulations for building new nuclear powerplants changed and lead to a big increase of the co2 emission during building. I thought that most of the co2 emission from nuclear was from uranium/plutonium extraction and enrichment but apparently the building itself is a major part of it.

Merwyn,

For gaming I see your point, it looks like everything as to be a money grab nowaday which greatly reduce the quality of a lot of games.

For ttrpg I don’t feel like it though. Sure Wizard of the Coast/Hasbro has gone to shit but I left the D&D train a long time ago already. And the amount of other very good and accessible system is amazing. IMO The only thing “bad” that this new popularity bring is players with wrong expectations. Some expect every games and every DM to be of the same quality as Critical Roll or other well known podcast, some exept to find “video games” mechanic like in baldur’s gate, some are trying to force the meme stuff inside the game, ect.

Merwyn,

You could add some piece of ham/lard in the puree soup, and eat with bread or “crouton”

I’m doing nearly the same exept without celery. I’ll try to add it next time ! The 2 other changes that I’m doing are to replace the sugar with sliced apple for the sweetness (1/8 of apple per portion).

Also, adding blended cashew nuts (approx 30g per portion) improve a lot the texture and taste imho.

Merwyn,

I would say that willingness to exploit other, be selfish and have low ethic also play a big role.

Merwyn,

People in the comment seems to not understand that it doesn’t mean average on the “scale of beauty/attractiveness”. But averaged features. Like if you merge all nose shapes of a million person you get this nose, ect.

It was tested already several years ago that people tend to like faces made by merging a lot of faces together and “averaging” them. Most of the time rating them more attractive than the individual faces used.

I don’t find the source anymore… I’ll check better later.

Merwyn,

I think it’s more related to the fact that it’s when there is no distractions at all. At least for me that’s probably the reason. No colleagues asking dumb questions, no pointless meeting, nearly no notification whatsoever.

Merwyn,

Don’t forget the volcanoes ! Especially the super massive one that is overdue for quite a long time now.

Merwyn,

You want a slug-related traumatizing story ? I had a cat with very long hairs, there was a cat door to the garden outside but usually he slept inside. One morning i wake up and feel the cat close to me in the bed, something very common. I start to pet him on the dark being half awake only. After some time i feel something wet in his belly fur, but as I’m half sleepy I don’t react and keep petting him. Only after what was probably a long time, I realized that something is wrong, turn on the light and see a slug curled/trapped inside his fur, I was touching it with my hand for several minutes!

French “vache”: Meuh

Something with cinnamon in the oven. Even better apple and cinnamon, but that’s probably the nostalgia of my mom’s cooking talking.

Otherwise onion and garlic cooking together with oil in a pan is always smelling amazing. And it’s part of so many recipes that I do frequently that’s it’s probably my main “cooking” smell.

What things do you do while eating?

I have a terrible habit of watching Youtube while I eat, and then one video turns to ten and I’ve wasted the entire day. I’ve tried just not watching it while I eat, but JUST eating is so incredibly boring that I cave in and turn it on regardless. I can’t get any work done while eating either, since it takes me out of flow...

Merwyn, (edited )

Watching tv shows or Youtube too. But I’m limiting myself to one full episode. Or if YouTube, I select a video in the 20~30 minutes range so it will last for the whole meal + small break after. And then I stop.
