Lentil soup is my favourite

1. Lentils (any colour)
2. Diced carrot
3. Diced celery
4. Diced onion
5. Half a diced sweet potato

Chili mac is also really good

1. Macaroni
2. Can of crushed or diced tomatoes (or marinara sauce if you prefer)
3. Ground beef or your vegan alternative of choice
4. Taco seasoning
5. Chili powder to taste

Microsoft Surface.

In no particular order:

The Al Cantera keyboard cover stated delaminating and the top layer started peeling off just from the friction of resting your hands on it. Started happening within months of getting it.

Battery failed after just a few years of daily use, I’m talking completely refused to charge, you unplug the charger even after leaving it in overnight and the screen goes black instantly. And while most laptops can run just fine with a dead battery as long as you keep it plugged in at all times, not the Surface. The little magnetic connector supplies so little power that the device is forced to down clock to below 1 GHz to keep from shutting down due to undercurrent. And sometimes it shuts down anyway because fuck you.

It’s also glued so tight, and the front glass is so thin, that you basically can’t open it without destroying the screen in the process.

Also, the magnetic charge connector started having contact issues around the same time the battery was starting to fail, so the moment you bump it, it disconnects and causes the device to turn off. It also just refuses to connect half the time when you plug it in. Gotta jiggle it, blow into it, shake and hit it a bunch of times, and pray. I’m pretty sure it’s the tablet’s side that’s the problem because changing chargers did nothing, and the charger that came with the problem tablet worked fine on another Surface. Gotta love when companies make the fragile part of the connector apart of the $2000 device that’s sealed shut with glue and put the more robust part on the cheap and easily replaceable charger.

It’s also really bad at going to sleep. Way too many times I’ve closed it, put it in my bag, and when I take it out it’s scalding hot and the battery is nearly drained. It’s your own device Microsoft, running 100% your own software. How the hell do you fuck it up?!

Worst. Tablet. EVER. And probably ruined any potential that laptop-replacement tablets once had, which is a shame because I still like the tablet form factor.

I’d like to thank America for its continued efforts to destroy American empire

When an IMAX technician is in a projection contest but their opponent is the IDF

but why the EU

Because white supremacy/Islamophobia.

They literally parrot the same rethoric that Israel is a last bastion of blonde hair blue eyed ubermensch in a sea of brown skinned heretics.

Why Japan

The country that committed the most atrocities during WWII and who the US refused to let the rest of the world punish (sound familiar?) is a fan of ethnic cleansing? The one that refuses to teach about the r*pe of Nanjing in school and spins it as self defense against the barbaric Chinese scum? I’m shocked.

Why even the UK

The country that colonized the majority of the world and whose wealth and power is built on the corpses of the Indigenous peoples they genocided?! The one that started the State of Israel in the first place?!?! Well I never!

Man, imagine banning people convicted of crimes of corruption from the government.

Sounds like totalitarian woke leftist beta snowflake bullshit to me

They keep “believing” that’s what happened because they have not presented any concrete evidence that can be used to get rid of that qualifier.

Bring America’s enemy is dangerous, being America’s ally is fatal

Tape drives. Remember those big reels of tape on mainframes in the 80s? They don’t look exactly like that anymore, but tape is still used for backups/long term archival because they offer the lowest cost per gigabyte and decent longevity without needing to be powered, as long as you don’t need to access the data all that fast or often.

Those dank memes and cat videos you posted in 2010 are probably on tape in a data centre somewhere

There’s no point in talking to Trump because he has shown time and time again that his words are worthless. He’s also an attention addict and megalomaniac, so talking to him, especially if it’s televised and on the world stage, is giving him exactly what he wants.

Canadian here, that’s getting more and more common over here. There’s a ton of HOA bullshit here too but I’ve been seeing more and more food gardening in Vancouver, but that might also be because food is expensive as fuuuck here.

The large subreddits each have more users than all of Lemmy. So yes.

However, like others have said, who cares? Community and quality of discussion is more important than raw user count. Here, what you post is actually seen by people, even if the thread is days old.

Absolutely.

Fuck you Trump, fuck you Musk. Canada will prevail.

Lack of high quality public transit.

“Just drive bro”

Reverse engineer it to make more

BABOU!!

Cannabis oil

Laptops with no intake dust filters.

Actually, no, any computer with fans that doesn’t have a dust filter is a terrible design.
