Tomato sauce and everything hot tomato, especially if you use canned tomatoes, needs a bit of sugar. It makes it 100% better. It does not make it sweet, but all the flavors of the tomato just pop while otherwise it is only sour and bland.

The downvotes proof how right you are.

Everyone has also forgotten what a mess Steam was in the beginning and it’s getting worse lately in my opinion, at least one major new bug per week.
The Steam client is also what introduces most young people to online scams more than everything else on the net, on the side of becoming a scammer and being scammed.
The microtransactions and the API that can be used for stuff outside of Steam also created a whole black market that is worth millions and introduces kids to completely unregulated gambling and betting.
After so many years Steam still has no real age verification option.
If you die, you can’t give your account to your heirs (you can give them login credentials, but it’s against the TOS), it’s not just that you can’t sell your games or your account.
Steam has lost a plethora of law suits for not following consumer laws all over the world, some ongoing as far as I know.
On top of everything else and despite a few mostly non profitable competitors, Steam is a monopoly which comes with its own problems for users and developers/publishers.

Valve is a company, companies are not your friend. Is it the worst company that exists? No, but that bar is low.

We found the elf.

A shutdown and a fresh start also deletes files that aren’t used anymore and the PC does check itself for hardware problems. Starting a PC could take a long time in the past, but my current 7 year old system starts in about 10 seconds, a newer system could start faster. I also turn off all peripherals like monitors and printer etc. with one switch after the computer is off, to make sure there is not a single light still wasting electricity. Standby devices in a common houshold use so much electricity, that it amounts to a lot of money over a year. But I guess we are still in the phase of convinience over climate and people have money to waste too.

From your link:

but the option to choose a new time was greyed out

Which only ever happened for me if I had already pushed back an update multiple times. Which then means they had all the time in the world to make sure they do the update before they start such a critical, multiple days long process. These are people without forced update they would never make updates and they are the reason forced updates have to happen now.

The mimic table ate the contract.

Bish bash bosh.

I do the same, but the meal did not have a name. Until today, it’s called “Bishbashbosh” now. I had to use google to translate to understand what it means, I am from Germany.

Do Pee!

I managed to clean the kitchen and do the dishes every evening for two weeks in a row now and it is a start to be nice to tomorrow me. If it becomes a habit, I will try to do more, but for now it is hard enough, but also so, so satisfying the next morning! Past me, today me and tomorrow me are a team!

I did and I should not have done that. What a nightmare!

There is nothing more interesting than a “forbidden fruit”. Funny how a religion that bases on a human eating from the forbidden fruit is all about creating another forbidden fruit. And if you can’t have your own sex life then the next best thing is to think about the one others have or might have or even obsess about that. One could learn from the bible, but they chose to not do that. Sometimes I wonder if they have even read it.

Bro, your kid just figured out how to workaround your nanny filter.

Or he watches porn with a friend on their phone and they jerk off together. Not that there is anything wrong with that.

I only know about this person, probably not who you think of: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Neil_Harbisson

I wish they would make decisions after they are handed the report. Unfortunately many make a decision and then ignore the report that proofs the decision is wrong and then make their underlings try to make the wrong decision work out and then they blame it on them when it, of course, doesn’t and then they fire a bunch of them and try again the same way. Source: Check how Elon Musk makes decisions on Twix.

Or Tim Sweeney laying off 900 people and in his “apology letter” states first that the reason is too much spending on his Metaverse, which was clearly a failure of him to end the letter with: And now we keep on spending on the Metaverse! https://twitter.com/ShiinaBR/status/1707419347549896905

If for some magical reason it does work out, it was of course solely the CEOs decision that made it a success.

That’s where the gun culture comes in. America has none, they just have guns and no protective, strict culture of do’s and don’ts around them. Not everything has to be restricted by law if a society decides that there are still rules. We have a social rule that when we sneeze or cough we put something in front of our mouth. It is not a law, but it is a healthy social rule that is helpful; everyone accepts that they are not free to sneeze in other people’s faces. You need either gun laws or gun culture, Switzerland chose more culture, Germany more law, both work. America chose … more guns and the “freedom” to shoot them in other people’s faces. That’s stupid and dangerous.

My brain: “I hope you don’t mint if I quit!”

It took me forever to find my mistake. 😅

No, no, do it per tweet getting a retweet or a heart or whatever “X” does, so that everyone using the service does it with a huge risk to get bancrupted if people either like or hate your tweet too much. It will definitely work, thrust me Musk.

and I didn’t keep vaping afterwards.

That’s the important part and glad you found a way to quit that worked for you!

You can not gatekeep against lies. If you can’t tell beforehand what they are going to do, which no one could here, then you can’t keep them out, so it had no use here either.
