Fuck off using *any* electricity to 'mine Bitcoin'. Waste our planet's precious resources needlessly - *needlessly* - to conjure up a pretend scarce financial instrument?
Bitcoin has an appallingly destructive design. It needs caught & killed.

Well, it stays moister in plastic; but is less prone to mould in paper.
Bread freezes so well it's worth freezing half of a fresh loaf (in plastic!) so its better a few days later after you finish the rest.
You know you can revive stale bread with a skoosh of water before you toast it, right?

Swim.
It's easier on your joints. It's full-body. It's aerobic, which is more important to health than muscle strength. And it engages your focus - if you don't pay attention, you drown.

My biggest takeaways are America's breathtaking naivete in setting up this anonymous global media ecosystem, and its failure popularly to see it for what it is.
It sold its republic for a pocketful of change.

Love me some good Indian, or aop.
Then again, my usual ingredients for chicken are: chicken, salt. It's about drying the chicken in the fridge before roasting, and 2/3 of the time breast down, 1/3 breast up. The flavour of chicken is a gift from the gods.
Spicy hurts, it's not really for kids.

Hmm. What's the standard temperature for a freezer in someone's home? I mean, what temperature can you be definitely assured a pizza taken out of it will be?
"9-16mins" looks perfect advice to me. "it'll take about this long, but you have to look & judge for yourself"?

Also if you use a ceramic gratin dish you can do boulangere or dauphinoise with ~20 mins in the microwave & a flash grilling (aka broiling if you speak funny)
