Just found in my closet a lighter fluid (butane) can which expired in 2017. I tried charging a lighter with it but I can’t get a flame (it was working before). I don’t suppose it’s going to explode but it doesn’t seem reasonable to just throw it in the trash. What should I do?

Alternatively, visit the repo.
password
has been updated to v1.1:- the game now starts after you press
[Space]
- you gain points for victories (score is not saved between reloads)
- UI is a little nicer
v1.2 planned features:
- adjustable difficulty, via either or both of password length and time per round
- zen mode: longer rounds, no score tracking, calmer UI
- persistent personal high score you can compete against
I almost feel like this is not worth an update, but people have been curious and supportive of the game.
You can see all planned features in the issues section. Suggestions on gameplay and visuals are welcome.
EDIT: updated hosted version to not reset score on loss (only resets when you start over).

sorry for being a little late this late week, we started online school and I've been trying to get organized hahahahah. If you know me well you'd know I have no idea how to organize myself, so I'm trying to take the opportunity to learn a little !
Anyhow, this week's curry was Massaman curry! This marks the first time that I've decided to remake a curry, using a different recipe this time ! I got recommended the website thaifoodmaster.com by fellow reader of my curry escapades, @arghdos, and decided to give it a shot. Massaman curry was something that really shook me the first time I made it, and this was no different! It's funny how different the techniques we used in this one ended up being from the last one, but they still managed to taste very similar. Which isn't a bad thing, mind you! Still a very decadent, rich, and delicious dish that I think everyone should try. (Though a bit spicy, be careful with that. My mom was not too pleased !)
Little story time: the recipe called for charring the dried red chillies a bit before adding them to a paste, so we did that. I kid you not, for about 20 minutes after doing this, we were coughing at how spicy everything was in the room. I almost puked because of it hahahah. Fun times. (Funny how both times I made massaman I got really really spiced....). This time my dad and I decided to finally buy a decent food processor to make the paste, so it actually came out pretty smooth! I can't wait to use this processor for different recipes in the future, it's such a good feeling to finally have something that's good enough for pureeing hahah.
Overall, a great Recipe once again, that I found easier than the original one because of the techniques used being a lot less complicated. Great dish !
