I feel old and dirty.

I just "pirated" CoolEdit 2000 from archive.org

and I registered it with a cracked serial number.

@Sempf yeah I bought some pulled rotisserie chicken (in a big family pack tub) and portioned it into 1/2 cup portions, and froze. I've also got some pulled pork that I need to do the same with.

So yeah, now I'm on the lookout for cooked meals that freeze well.

There's a trend online that call "freezer meal prep" meals that basically are "pop fresh ingredients into a ziploc, freeze" + "dump bag into skillet" which ... works, but is a little more work than what I want right now.

I really want throw-it-in-the-microwave, then eat simplicity.

I just had a baller idea this morning: I recently bought some SouperCubes silicone freezer mold things, so I could portion and freeze foods. Been using it for soups, and recently beans + protein for home made burrito bowls.

If I put pasta sauce into the 2 tbsp/30 ml SouperCubes, I can make my own microwavable pasta meals real quick!

Just boil some pasta to al dente, freeze on a non-stick sheet in a single layer, and portion into bags w/ sauce cubes.

It's an instant "Bertolli skillet meal" that is home made.

One of the benefits of Zero Trust is SSO. Because you have to SSO into everything, your work chat client (that you obviously used SSO to sign into) doesn't have an SSO token to pass onto web servers for links you paste into chat, so all link previews are just:

@tychotithonus wow holy shit they want to remove LUKS support from GRUB based on their (IMO misguided) preference of doing LUKS from an initrd. I hate that design pattern, but I guess they have their reasons. Personally my linux laptops that are FDE encrypted are *completely* encrypted and boot leveraging GRUB's LUKS support. It's unusual, but I believe more resilient to bad shit.

@cstross with your previously stated rough time writing (and reading) because of your vision troubles, I appreciate your efforts to still be present here on mastodon!

last night I discovered why some people think cilantro tastes like soap, when I put an entire teaspoon of dried cilantro into rice in my rice cooker w/ 2 cups of rice to make rice for burrito bowls.

@vaurora generally consumer drives don't let you tune TLER (time limited error recovery), so chances are slim sadly.

@vathpela I'm legit waiting for the home automation nerds to go apoplectic with smart switches that support bluetooth + wifi + zigbee getting classified as "Routers" and the entire US business market of Shelly going ️ poof ️

success: grew my own food!

Planted sunchokes (aka Jerusalem Artichokes) last year, and let them overwinter. Dug 'em all up, separated rotten and woody bits, washed, cleaned, cubed and roasted in the oven at 350f for 40 min.

First batch was plain with salt, second batch will be Jamaican curry powder flavored.

@paco @revk We are From the Internet and we're Here to Help.

@paco @revk try black in COM, (bottom right) red in VΩ┥┝ (top right) and then in resistance mode, join the probe leads together. Should read 0 or very close to 0. Lemme know if that's what happens!

I want a BMC IPMI serial console that implements VT100, or knows the last 2k-4k bytes sent to the serial console just so it has a buffer that it can spew at me when I connect to the IPMI serial console.

Rather than trying to guess what the kernel panic was at a blank fucking screen.

@mattblaze this feels more like somebody is envious of someone else's larger turbine.

@sleepyowl glad to hear you're safe and sound!
