Celery is genuinely one of my favorite parts of soups that use them. I LOVE the flavor or celery, and it is even better when it picks up the rest of the flavors of the dish.
To answer yours and the other questions about “why this ingredient”, the answer is very simple. Some people like it.
If you don’t, then don’t use it, problem solved.
“Hot take” - lol. Sorry, couldn’t help but giggle at the dad joke…
Journalism is dead in this country. The purveyors of “news” in the US have zero interest or care in fact and truth, their only motive is profit. This is no longer compatible with a free society.
Sorry to be the one to break it to you, but the US is filled with shitty people.
I mean, it’s just so plainly and obviously true yet for some reason almost no one sees it.
Yeah, that’s how I read it as well. Fucker is spiraling the drain, likely dying and subconsciously needing a win. His mouth breathing cult loves weed, right? That’ll make ‘em happy…
no, because he believes he is being a decent human being. he’s a narcissist after all.
Sounds like a hell of a system that puts mine to shame. I’m impressed fellow self hoster :)
I completely agree, that why I said I don’t blame the guy, was just doing what Apple encouraged him and all of us to do.
My comment was more meant as advice. Apple definitely should be making this right, BUT this is also a good eye opener for the rest of us.
I’m not blaming the guy, but he seems smart enough that he should have known better. Data isn’t secure if it’s in a single location, he gave up control and the inevitable happened.
I do not trust anyone with my data, the more important, the more sure I am that I have copies in several locations, including ones that are entirely in my control. My photos exist on multiple devices, cloud, my selfhosted immich server and my offline backup. Same with documents and other important data. My ripped movie collection is not backed up since I have the physical media.
Do not give up control, the systems are all setup to give you the illusion of security, but then this kind of thing happens. Maybe I’m extra paranoid since I’ve been the victim of identity theft but I’m comfortable with my level of paranoia.
Update- for the record, yes, Apple needs to make this right. I DO NOT blame the victim, my comment is here as advice, not to shit on the dude.
Sure, but I still think there should be a way to do this without the need. Password managers are fine, again, not upset with them but still, it should be easy enough to not need one, at least for a normal person.
A lot of this is due to dealing with my elderly parents. They have so much of their lives reliant on services, but they are no longer capable of even figuring out a password manger. Even for important shit, there should be a better way to do this than having to keep track of hundreds of pieces of information. Passwords shouldn’t even be a thing we ever need to use unless we need to break glass. There are methods out there that work, but it’s so disjointed but also interconnected.
Honestly, no idea how it could be solved other than through legislation maybe. Fat fucking chance with the way the world currently works.
Oh, agreed, I do this as well. Again though, so much bullshit, why should we need dozens or hundreds of email addresses?
I feel like everyone is so used to needing accounts for everything, it’s just accepted as a given. When you go to the store to purchase a newspaper, should we have to bring our passport?
Man it’s fallen off a cliff. Many years ago I bought a knockoff Chinese messenger bag from Amazon. It’s fantastic, great materials, good quality zipper, it’s held up to daily use for years and looks even better than when I got it (leather developed a nice patina).
So, I needed another bag, went looking for the same brand as mine. No longer there, but there are 75 identical looking but weirdly named brands instead. I found one that looked as similar as I could to my old bag, and this one is an utter piece of shit. I mean, I’ll use it, it’s a duffle bag so not as much use as the messenger bag, but the difference is stark. Stiff, cheap cloth, leather sure, but probably harvested entirely from cow buttholes, zippers look brass, but one zip and the color wore off…
Everything, even purchased goods have enshittified. Everything looks cool but just absolutely sucks.
I agree, and I do use an open source one, but I disagree that we need to identify ourselves for everything. You can’t even look at a resturaunt menu anymore without signing up for an account. Everything is gate kept behind an account, and those accounts are all so interconnected that when one is compromised, it might for multiple and often you will never know (and I’m not talking about password reuse).
Password managers are a good solution to the problem, I’m not mad at them, I’m mad at the problem that necessitates them.
It took me three viewings but I was finally able to follow the plot. I honestly loved it.
I watched the first time and was utterly confused, but I was sure there was a narrative that I just wasn’t following so a couple weeks later I watched it again. This time I figured out the mechanics of the plot but I did lose the continuity. So, I watched it like 2 days later and literally took notes (like 3 sentances, not an academic study), and was able to follow the entire plotline.
Probably doesn’t sound like fun to many, but for me it was an ideal movie watching experience. It provided the experience Inception promised but never lived up to (I did enjoy it as well, but it was not challenging to follow).
honestly, that is a damned beautiful photo. The organic strip of color running through the stark concrete jungle is visually and meaningfully impressive.
The fact that modern life basically requires a third party app to prevent instant identity theft and fraud is a real problem.
It all comes down to the fact that every fucking service in the world is just there to scrape data. I don’t need to logon and provide my every detail to check the local weather, I shouldn’t have to give my social security number to play video games…
This seems to be reflexive, probably stemming from his Roy Cohn, escalate-everything training.
Yes, 100%, I see this too and cannot fathom why it’s not really talked about. This philosophy combined with his ossifying brain explain his complete insanity.
It was my favorite Star Trek since TNG. It is part of the canon in my head.
I mean, the reason is that it’s one of the main ingredients of mirepoix, and most people don’t find it offensive. It’s one of those background flavors that you don’t pick out, but is part of the typical base.
What I’m getting at is that if you don’t like it, just don’t use it. It’s there because whoever made it, decided to put it in.
Now, I’m sure there are all kinds of explanations about the enzymes, and the fiber and so on, but it’s soup, doesn’t have to be complicated. Just delicious :)
