Hebephilia vs. pedophilia? That’s a defense I’ve seen before. Didn’t work for creepy Internet boyz. Let’s see if it works for the Republican party.

I found that systemd actually simplified all the things I was doing on sysvinit. BUT, I did hold out until Debian testing stopped supporting sysvinit, and I think waiting gave me a better experience.

With X11 -> Wayland, the main thing holding me back finding a tiling compositor that will work under Plasma and is packaged for Debian and the learning at least the basics. My XMonad configuration isn’t that special, but I’m really quite used to not having to re-arrange my own windows, and being able to move/resize/refocus all with the home row and modifier keys. So, I’m probably going to wait until Debian testing ships a Plasma that doesn’t support X11, and have to do some learning then.

I just do it “raw”, using an IP denylist built into my client KTorrent. No problems for a while. But, I mostly do different media than you. (I do TV.)

Sorry, you got “sniped”; I’ve already given away my 3, and I won’t get more until the new year.

Maybe you can score one from someone else?

Same here on both counts.

First 3 replies to this post asking for a guest pass will get one from me. It’s a free month of viewing anything through Nebula. (I recommend “The Prince” and “Lynchpins”.)

Sometimes strikes have better worker protections than mass quitting.

Also, usually besides “not doing the work”, strikes usually involve engaging in some practices (e.g. picket lines) to prevent or inhibit anyone else from “doing the work”. That’s not true of mass quitting.

I’ve never been in a position where I could earn a pension. But, vestment of employer contributions to my 401k used to be contingent on years of continuous employment. Quitting and being rehired would have resulted in losing all funds that hadn’t yet vested.

But, yes, mass quitting is an option, particularly when legal and union protections are little or non-existent.

My parents would say you just haven’t been hungry enough. Their parents lived through the great depression. I wouldn’t know, but I hear people are having to make food/medicine trade offs, which seems more dire than flavor/texture preference tradeoffs.

That said, I don’t know a protein source that’s as available and cheap as beans, but you might try insects if cheap is the priority or poultry if availability is your priority.

You can buy a large bag of frozen vegetable blend and steam it fairly simply. You can either steam single serving and keep the rest frozen OR steam the whole bag in bulk, and refrigerate for up to a week, reheating single servings as you need them.

Best of luck.

Yeah, no. I cooked my own beans from dry and I was still overly gassy for a bit.

Best sloppy joes I ever had were mostly TVP. It is really great at absorbing the lipids from the meat AND spices.

I have always hated soaking beans, which is why the Instant Pot has been one of the single greatest cooking inventions I have ever used.

Exactly why I bought mine. Any pressure cooker will do. Beans (red, pinto, or black) 1 : 2 with water for 40 minutes, followed by natural release. I use roughly a pint of dried beans (1lb bag, then topped up out of a mixed-beans bag), to get 9 large servings.

I also do quinoa in the same cooker 1 : 5/4 with water (or sub up to half the water with stock) for 0 minutes (just bring up to high pressure), followed by natural release. I use 3 cups dry to make 9 servings.

Depending on your spice budget, you might feel like you are getting more by applying right before eating. But, if you want the spice flavors to permeate the beans, it’s best to add them to the pot and warm them just a bit with the saute setting before adding the beans (or quinoa/rice/grains) and water.

If you eat meat, miscut ham is also a good addition to the beans before cooking – they will share lipids and flavors.

I use nooch as a topping for mine, to try to keep it vegan, but what I really like is a Mexican shredded cheese blend.

Not usually an issue for me. My heartburn trigger used to be acids (e.g. pizza sauce) too close to bed, but after I lost some weight, I basically don’t get heartburn anymore.

That said, I very much avoid anything with much hot spice. Anything that I think might burn on the way out doesn’t make it in.

I think you are supposed to have a couple of vegetable sides to go with a meat+cheese+pasta lasagna.

(But, sure, lasagna is a pretty flexible term, you could make one where an appropriately sized portion is a complete, balanced meal.)

There’s a party in my belly, and the whole bag of chips / cheeze puffs is invited!

I don’t think that’s right. The average voter wants the minimum wage raised by quite a bit. Capital voters paint nightmare pictures no matter how small the increase is.

I don’t know about NYC, but the Federal Wage has been stagnated so long, that 12.5% annualized increase seems like the BARE MINIMUM workers deserve.

I’m in Arkansas, so 30$/hr is probably a little “too much” here, but I believe in a the minimum wage should be a living wage at 40hr/wk.

1.8x increase over 5 years

12.5% annualized
