  1. i have no idea how anyone can do anything on a 1080p(easant) screen. i got fed up with that bullshit at the office (2x 1080p) and bought a 32" 4k LG with a built in USB-C hub with 60W PD. one cable from the screen to the laptop in a scissor stand sitting next to it is the goddamn future. leave a chrome window with teams, outlook, and the firm management software in tabs on the laptop, and then get actual work done on the LG. /tangent
  2. the 737 is the biggest product in the entire US economy, at about 1% of GDP by itself. so there's no way the government lets it fail. at worst you'd see a very structured bankruptcy like GM went through.
  3. are heb bagels even bagels or are they ring shaped rolls (like at panera)?
  4. new yorker radio hour 2/2 had a very good episode on this. plus olivia rodrigo who is hot af. https://pod.link/the-new-yorker-radio-hour and nsiap national media is starting to point out the irony of shelby park being the center of this https://www.cnn.com/2024/02/01/us/shelby-park-texas-border-history-cec/index.html

  6. the old make them say no 3 times rule
  7. There's no lateral traffic. It's a 100' long corral at the front of Marshalls or Maxx or whatever hellscape I was in and we were just about to the end of it. I moved up and that asshole immediately moved his cart right up on me. So, pretty please with sugar on top, Fuck. Off.
  8. you're not checking out any earlier because i move a foot forward you goddamn fucking moron.
  9. it was a corral line with no self checkout and i was honoring the personal space of the people in front of me. fuck you.
  10. Person behind you in the checkout line who runs their cart up within 4 inches of you
  11. or the guy who decides to u-turn under a freeway not by going through the actual u-turn lane, but by going through the traffic lights. which aren't set up for that, so he has to stop at the red underneath the freeway. but not in the left-only lane. no, this dumbass decides to sit in the left/straight lane, staring at a green for straight traffic. dick. tragic to describe anything bad happening. 'he died tragically' did he kill himself because he realized he killed his father and sexed his mother? no, it was just a run of the mill car wreck. that's not tragic.
  12. this is a recording. i think they went through the night. usually the dubai 24h is 2 weeks before daytona but they had to move it to the same weekend (thanks houthis). so some big name drivers that would have been there weren't. still, not a bad thing to watch on one of the deadest sports weekends of the year.
  13. chrome is about to roll out an update with an AI writing assistant built in. article comments, messageboard posts, tweets, product reviews, pretty much everything is about to be MOAR AI'd. https://www.texasstandard.org/stories/google-chrome-artificial-intelligence-ai-feature-help-me-write/
  14. i pick up the 2 pack stuffed salmon and bring my own vegetable (salet) quite often. have a stack of those little aluminum trays now. they used to have a stuffed chicken breast with asparagus, havarti, and prosciutto which was delicious, but that's been gone a while. can't seem to find zatarain's mustard anywhere right now. neither heb nor kroger have shelf space and whole foods has a void where it should be.
  15. øh she was fine but Svenge, her brother in law, an Oslo dentist and star of many Norwegian møvies: "The Høt Hands of an Oslo dentist", "Fillings of Passion", and "The Huge Mølars of Horst Nordfink", fainted right away
  16. am i going to watch the 24H Dubai this weekend while i'm fucking around on the computer? does the pope shit in the woods?
  17. a møøse once hit my sister
  18. it's really a no recipe dish. this one was beef because i didn't want to break down an pork shoulder and freeze half of it and beef pot roast was about half the price of boneless pork country ribs. generally: brown 1 ring pork and venison sausage and approx 2.5# stewing meat in bacon fat. once done start cooking down either 1 really large (HEB) or 2 more normal sized onions, a small head of cabbage or half a large one, and some chopped/shredded carrots. add a can of tomato paste and then deglaze with red wine. add a 32 oz jar or two 14 oz cans of sauerkraut (with juice for some sourness) along with reconstituted mushrooms (and some mushroom liquid), a 28 oz can of peeled tomatoes (mash them up a bit), about a cup of chopped prunes, caraway seeds, marjoram, bay leaves, pepper and a few tablespoons of chicken base. there is probably plenty of liquid at that point, but if not add more wine or water or mushroom liquid. usually i use the pressure cooker on whatever timer i find for pork shoulder, check for doneness and seasoning and put back under pressure if need be or simmer for desired consistency. one recipe suggested apples which i hadn't done before. don't really think they added much. also used juniper berries which are not entirely pleasant to eat, though maybe i could have smashed them better. potatoes are optional in the cook.
  19. When the traffic light switches cycles and skips your side’s turn
