How do typewriters eat?

for anybody wondering why airlines use curvy flight paths: it’s because most flight paths were made before AI

antifa also made lots of tiny jackets for the mosquitos so they could survive the cold

by the looks of it, this cat already has a scratching board that it very much enjoys

This is a trick question. It was Hillary’s fault.

things like this would make me boycott a grocery store until the end of time

yeah it is extremely frustrating how many traps there are. i think it’s because the US has a culture of thinking things are “safe until proven unsafe” instead of “unsafe until proven safe”.

learning about the paper towels, microwave popcorn, and silicone cookware made me go nuclear on my kitchen. at this point i only let food touch glass, stainless steel, wood, or ceramic. it’s annoyingly difficult to find non-plastic versions of certain things (e.g. blenders) but after doing it once i don’t have to worry about it again for 5-10 years so it’s not too bad in that context. and i haven’t had to deal with any of the traps since then.

i meant microwaving it in a regular bowl and then putting it in a colander afterwards

i think it’s even easier to use a microwave and a colander. the colander will also last a whole lot longer than a roll of paper towels.

i still haven’t found a great alternative to be honest, but at the moment i just try to see if i can somehow use a strainer/colander to accomplish the same task. but its a bit of a half-measure and doesn’t work in all contexts

ive seen quite a few tofu-related recipes say that tofu should be put inside a paper towel and then pressed to get all the water out. i think i’ve seen some non-tofu recipes advocate for paper towels but i don’t remember them as vividly

my understanding is that most kinds of paper towels are not food safe, and can contain bleaching agents, formaldehyde, and other such things. i’ve yet to find a great drop in replacement for them though. so i’ve just been avoiding/altering recipes that ask for them.

further evidence in support of my policy of not taking cooking advice from people who advocate for putting food on paper towels

i got 64gb ram so that i never had to close a tab again

another option would be to prove it from first principles using Peano arithmetic. the teacher would probably love that.
