I flirted with the idea of getting a melanger for making peanut butter and tahini at home, but my blender hasn't burned out yet (yay blendtec) so I haven't needed to explore this with any urgency. If anyone can recommend a way to

Please let's not "both sides" this. It's the maga crowd who have fallen into a cult of personality and are excusing those personalities for their incompetence and its results. Until that appears from another vector it is

Clinics distributed a box of pills with no proven efficacy for the SARS CoV-2 virus, but with significant downsides, and with no tracking. This was not a controlled experiment, this was negligent homicide, recklessly endangering a populatio

At the time of 2.6 that was not the case. Cpio, tar could open archives created on other platforms. bash had readline. awk, sed, find, xargs - handing no ills spaces newlines etc. Dd would let you handle errors. Pretty much every gnu tool

Yes, it was indeed! But the PITA-ness and need for termination meant that once it was planned and implemented, it was rarely monkeyed with for a while.

Yes, at a prior job I tried to follow a bug in his metahtml interpreter many years ago, and the code bottomed out at an unfinished if condition. Actually an unstarted condition. It was just shipped that way. Very difficult to follow such a

The ny tap water story is just a story. You can get a water report on the tap water, and then distill water and add the minerals that will match. Beer brewers are more familiar with this, but it's not a super secret dark art.

That was fine as long as the network was thinnet or thicknet as most universities probably were, because a well planned network would start at the hub and extend out and terminate. When networks became more based on 10baseT and you could ad

The ovens here in Brazil don't hold heat on the top, so I use our roccbox to broil cauliflower and broccoli in a cast iron pan, and when I make a pan pizza, or Mac and cheese, to finish broil the top. It's lovely to have a tool th

I don't understand if you're presenting this question broadly, in a vacuum? Or if you're still in the context of your question about (mis-)pronunciation of streets etc. while providing navigation for a driver whose chosen lan

I'm the case of identity theft/card #theft, credit cards provide limited liability, while debit cards do not, at least in the USA. How do you plan on protecting your customers if they want to use the card for on-line purchases and

There are lists of numbers owned by voip providers. If you have an early gv number it is usually not on those lists, and so it works fine. Whether that's a good thing is another question.

It's a hard problem in a way. If my language is localized to English, am I more likely to understand the native pronunciation of a street, or the English mispronunciation?

The term free market seems oddly incompatible with what you propose. Is a regulated market with oversight and checks and balances?ls "free market"? It seems the opposite to me.

Yes there are. Every scanner out there fingerprints the OS and throws known sploits at it. Solaris is easy to fingerprint.

A musket is also battle-tested, but it was replaced because it is slow, hard to operate, heavy, and in the end if you tried to continue using one, you lost. M4 is similar. It's just a macro processor. If you try to make it work on a pr

In most of the world, bulk containers of grain equal insect infestation. If there is not enough turnover fast enough, there is also the potential for going stale, mold etc. So there is a need for packaging so the age and condition of a disc
