    Off-topic comment here. If it's thieves with angle grinders you're trying to deter, you can use a soft cloth (think: stockings/women's leggings/socks) and a bit of glue around the chain/ring to break any angle grinders. Also, if it gets cold there, it'll help your hands.

    Thanks for the feedback! I, too, have no love lost for soggy seaweed (unless, yknow, it's in the sea still).

    Thanks for the feedback! I think the major flaw with the egg is that I opted to cook it more than poach it, mostly because it was two days expired! Such is the nature of cooking, however.

    Hi Tildes! I've got here two noodle dishes I made a while apart, and I was wondering if my skills are actually improving. I'd like some feedback on which one looks better/presents better. Thanks!

    Slightly off topic, but I’ve been reading 404 Media’s peices, and they’re quite good. They always seem to find the most interesting stories about tech that I haven’t seen reported anywhere, original content that I feel the tech-blogosphere has been missing for a while.

    Speaking to the 2016 election, I wonder how much of that outcome was born out of what appeared to be entitlement and indifference coming from the Hillary campaign, somewhat acting as if she had already won. I’m glad that Biden has brought respect back to the nations highest office with his ‘restraint’, for lack of a better word.

    Remember: hate sells. It’s been seen time and time again, people consume media that makes them feel strong feelings. And reporting follows the money, so the less reputable and moral publications will write about topics that make people mad. I’ve said it before: trump is the most profitable thing to happen to American news media in a long time. And until that cycle is broken, we’ll just get more people like him who know how to spin coverage about them, no matter what it is, into more popularity.

    Twitch defeated adblockers by using in-stream ads. I hope google does not go down the same path.

    The benefits are that I don’t have to manage mods and mod versions. I use prism launcher, so most of that is taken care of, but it’s nice to have stability. As for blocks missing or other bugs,...

    As for blocks missing or other bugs, I’ve not seen anything like that, It’s just sometimes a little slower connecting to a server.

    I’m playing on 1.19.4 and connecting with via fabric plus to the server on 1.20.2, I can’t recommend this setup enough. It works great for me and it’s all client side.
