There’s one appreciating the efforts of the health care sector during the SARS pandemic.

Not as cool as giving everyone a fat cheque, but still a nice gesture.

The first rule of baking is: accurately follow the recipe.

The first rule of cooking is: the better the ingredients, the fewer processing steps are necessary.

They still exist, but the number of samples is orders of magnitude away from what we’ve been used to in the early years of the pandemic.

I agree with everything except for this part:

Almost every coffee shop that sells coffee also sells sweetened and frozen coffee drinks, with similar caloric/sugar content.

You wouldn’t find another coffee shop in my city that sells anything comparable to the sugar-milk-coffee drinks from Starbucks. An affogato or caffè freddo probably has less than half the amount of sugar. They have pastries that dissolve your enamel within three bites though.

But to reiterate, wrong community for this post.

If that had happened in Germany, Brenda would have provably committed an administrative offence and should stop unless they want to go to jail:

§ 4 Rest breaks

And why would any of these players invest $100b to lower their product’s prices at the risk of overproducing

When asked if he had any health issues people should know about, he replied, “Of course not,”

Hehe that’s funny

I really don’t care about the legal form the oligarchs give themselves, but at least the state can impose statutory requirements on banks, even if they’ve always been too lax.

Never seen Greg in a suite before, makes him look dashing but also evil.

Trump can’t hate on Mamdani too much, lest he becomes a folk hero.

We didn’t, and it isn’t even necessarily our own corporations’ money.

It was true when I said it and I’m proud of everyone for what they’ve achieved since then.

Terrorism is the use of force against civilians to influence a nation’s policy. This is not it.

Everyone acts like it’s all about gaming, but people want to use Lightroom, Photoshop, Excel, their banking and tax software etc. They don’t want the alternatives because they’re not integrated well, they can’t access their Dropbox/Apple Cloud/whatever and they gave Linux their Google password already, why does it need it again for that mail software that has some stupid bird name instead of “mail”.

Thank you, I wasn’t sure what I was supposed to observe in this picture. The sink is very unusual to me, the faucet isn’t.

That’s the documents everyone, including you apparently, failed to read.

At no point has Micron ever stated they’re switching to HBM memory. Micron isn’t “pivoting to AI” and neither are its fabs. If you write this as a journalist, you clearly take your opinion from reddit and lack common industry knowledge.

They have put down roots in the Brussels bureaucracy. Authoritarian theories are now dominant over democratic ones there. To weed them out, it would be necessary to elect leftist leaders who radically prefer leftist civil servants throughout Europe, which is now farther away from realisation than it has been for decades.

Sinister is hardly the right word to describe someone’s shift to the right.

Edit: nobody here had Latin in school

In addition to what the others said about mirepoix, or stock, soups are experienced as more full-bodied or wholehearted when celery root is added. The earthy, bitter taste can be balanced by the right combination of sweetness (from other vegetables) and saltiness or used as intensifying effect for a strong umami taste, e.g. in poultry stock.

I haven’t met anyone who specifically disliked the taste of celery root in soups yet.

Out of curiosity, do you also dislike other earthy tastes, like truffles, lamb, champignons, girolles?
