All well and good and as someone who doesn't eat meat it's nice to have more options when getting fast food, but at home I prefer the frozen vegetarian burger patties that have been available from Morningstar or Boca as they tend

I believe Carl's Jr. (or 'Hardees', depending on locale) sell a Beyond Meat burger at most locations, now. I'm not sure where you can find an Impossible burger nationally, though.

I like this idea. Especially if you give a high-level overview of software design concepts.

Try Sumatra PDF, if your system supports it. It's very light-weight. Since web-browsers have basically become PDF readers, I've kind of abandoned it, but I may go back to it once Microsoft deprecates their version of Edge.

I think a lot of people, (probably) me included, have quite a high barrier to things they're willing to discuss or reveal to people they've paid to discuss and reveal these things to.

Not that I have the luxury, but sounds good to me. A company that doesn't expect a social-media presence is a company I'd rather work for.

I definitely relate to what you're saying, but finding a community of like-minded down-n-out individuals can be somewhat therapeutic in itself. Assuming you're all able to laugh about it, that is. http://www.mytinyphone

To add, maybe pacification has led more speech to be deemed "wild" whereas before the same speech may have registered as a 2-out-of-10 on "will this get me beheaded?" scale.

I don't mind being a bit challenged to increase my vocabulary. But, it seems the nature of this website attracts people that order dry, straightforward explanation of phenomena? I don't like overly flowery language, but I don&#x27

>destined for landfill I've always referred to crap at discount stores as "future garbage." Sure, that's end-of-the-line for most things, but these discount stores peddle stuff with an exceptionally short useful life.

I feel a work of art is its entirety. Could you summarize Beethoven's 3rd in a few chords? Maybe, but think of the context you're missing out on. A novel exists as it is and it's more than plot. It's style and concept an

Wow, I had no idea that the "Ok" hand sign was supposedly co-opted as a white-power sign until you mentioned it here. I guess I'm still in the shadows, thankfully!

That's a good approximate, but I feel these kinds of "statements" are for a select few, and they'll have fun arguing the message's merits or lack-thereof. The rest of the world will continue on with these decisions

Likewise, Microsoft has released a bunch of updated system fonts. Arial Nova, Georgia Pro, Gill Sans Nova, Rockwell Nova, and Verdana Pro.

I have to say, the movie poster example does it no favors. But, then again, it seems to be most movie poster designer's prerogative to turn credits into vertical lines. I'm partial to Futura and Gill Sans when it comes to sans-ser

Talking to various inhabitants of the city was like 80% of the magic, for me. In fact, I usually made it a point to try to exhaust the population's dialogue options before the next "stage" of the game, which would cause their

I like this idea, but maybe there should be (or maybe there is) a writing-specific subset of XML, like there is with music. The HTML elements come close to encompassing a lot of functionality, but I think there ought to be an expanded set

Yea, I can imagine how it'd be hard to implement. I guess you'd have to tie the lyrics to rhythm, as well, and at that point you're pretty much implementing sheet music features.

I wish you could incorporate rhythm/bars on top of the lyrics along with the chord symbols. I've been playing guitar since 2005, and I still find it exceedingly difficult to play chords along with lyrics without some kind of rhyth

I think the most basic of observations can feel extremely profound while on hallucinogenics in that they might set off a cascade of ideas and recognitions that make the world feel more intimate. A phrase such as "the water is wet"

My apartment's portal allows me to pay either with a debit/credit card or a bank account. I go through my bank account, as they charge a 5%(?) fee to use a card.

Oh, I'm aware of place names and certain people beginning with just the first letter (such as 'Prince S.' in 'The Idiot'), but certain words were blanked out with stars, such as 'B *'. It happened only a

I recently read 'The Idiot', translated by Ignat Avsey (I enjoyed his 'Karamazov Brothers' translation), and it contained a few similar redactions with no notes as to why. I thought it was maybe just a stylistic device.
