In my experience, the large holes will not form if you add low-gluten flour (rye, buckwheat, oat) to the mix, even with higher hydration. I make a 100%-rye bread with flax seeds that is very dense, although highly hydrated (100-110%!). Furt

Mother's milk contains ~4.5% fat, ~7% sugar and ~1% protein. It's not exactly 50:50 sugar/fat ratio, but it's pretty close, so I wouldn't call the combination unnatural. Maybe we've been "trained" fro

Zeljanica is, despite its name, filled with spinach rather than cabbage. Then there's also an abomination called "pizza-burek", it's probably as bad as it sounds...

Just to clarify: it wasn't bad-faith, I was just (trying to be) sarcastic, as most of the store-bought food nowadays "may contain traces of nuts and/or eggs and/or celery" etc.

Nutella though is a sugar-and-palm/vegetable-oil spread, which - probably accidentally - contains traces of hazelnuts, powdered milk and cocoa.

Electropaint, the SGI IRIX screensaver. And yes, I'd pay for it, iff it were a complete experience - not just the dancing squares/triangles, it would have to include the script recorder/player and the configuration panels b

There's the "id3" mass tagger utility which supposedly can do that: https://squell.github.io/id3/ I haven't used it though, I've settled for MusicBrainz Picard for now.

I prefer Ales, but there's another "variety" I'm very fond of - Belgian Lambic beers[0]. They're brewed using wild yeasts instead of the brewer's, and have a really special (sour) taste. Try the unblended ones

There's a good reason you can't rely on CWD other than root - the directory can be on a different mountpoint and possibly even on a remote mountpoint. If the remote server goes down or the mountpoint is forcefully unmounted, what

Not quite the same. Ep had an animation sequencer built in, as well as a script recorder. There was also a GUI for fiddling with various rotations, color changes etc. You were able to record everything into a script and play it back using t

True, but in languages with operator overloading you (may) end up with other issues. Unless you look at the source you have no idea what the '==' operator will do.

I don't completely agree, but I work in storage so I'm also a bit biased. First of all, even though the disk prices may be getting lower and lower, the amount of data being backed up is growing (almost?) exponentially. This not only require
