There’s an XKCD for everything

Always loved the alt text on that one:

I can’t remember where I heard this, but someone once said that defending a position by citing free speech is sort of the ultimate concession; you’re saying that the most compelling thing you can say for your position is that it’s not literally illegal to express.

All the computers in the Electronics lab had it installed on them; we wasted so much time playing. That was such a complete screw-off class, haha.

r/WhatIsThisThing, r/TipOfMyTongue, and similar subreddits. Some of the simplest and best examples of the power of crowdsourced knowledge. Take a simple question with a simple answer that is basically impossible to search through conventional means, but through the power of those communities you can get your answer in minutes. Simply amazing.

Lemmy is going to have to get huge before it can really replace them. :/

Incremental games is a good one, yeah. It’s a space with a lot of shovelware and abandoned / incomplete projects, so it’s soooo helpful to have a place to find out about new good ones or ask for help when you’re stuck on something niche.

Hamburger gravy over rice is good delicious comfort food and you can mix it up with add-ins pretty easy

The basic idea is:

• Brown 1lb of hamburger, 80% or 93%, your choice, but don’t drain
• Dump in a can of condensed cream of mushroom soup
• Cook up 3/4c of white rice

Spread the gravy over the rice in a tupperware or pyrex container, stick it in the fridge, and later you can cut it out like a thick casserole and heat up. It looks gross but your tongue will love it. The hamburger gravy keeps the rice from getting crappy like it usually does in the fridge.

I like to double up the burger and rice but keep the single can of soup, and mix in a bundle of green onions, 16oz white mushrooms, 4 habaneros, a half a yellow onion, a couple cloves of garlic, and some celery or carrots or anaheim pepper slices or something for a little crunch. Still super easy to make but less salty, a bit of spicy kick, very yummy. Still will look pretty gross haha, but I swear it tastes amazing, your body will crave it.
