I just wanted to promote Parish Rice again.

White Rice is one of the things that I just couldnt give up. I found this higher protein white rice which was bred by Louisiana State University and is being grown in Louisiana for commercial sale as Parish Rice.

It's still not the healthiest choice in the world but the higher protein content reduces the glycemic index of white rice (processed high starch) from like 60-70 down to mid 40s. And put white rice back on the table from time to time for a nice treat, for me, for stir frys and red beans n rice, ettoufe, Charleston red rice and so on and so forth.

Got in a car accident
Rear ended some thot that was stopped in the middle of an offramp. Apparently she though a yield sign was a stop sign even when there was a 100 yards of clear road in front of her to do the merge
My airbag went off
Barely any damage to my front. Still drives like nothing happened
Thot couldn't speak a lick of English

I think our #Brother printer is messing up my FAT32 flash drive. Several time I formatted it, but then after using it on this printer there would be issues, sometimes my #Debian laptop refused to mount and read, sometime #Windows failed to detect filesystem or failed to read/write files properly. But the thing to to keep it universal for Windows, #Linux, #BSD and the printer, FAT32 seems to be the only choice. I am gonna use another flash drive for now just to make sure there is no malfunction in the thumb driver itself.

Does the printer offer a way to dismount the USB before you pull it? I would guess not, because it's a printer; it's a nonzero chance an issue with the printer is causing it to keep reading the drive after the print job, while you pull the drive. Try with another USB and see if the same thing happens; if you can, try the original USB with a different printer as well.

I bought a big bag of lids from Amazon, and I also have some of those silicone lids for the 5 gallon carboys that go on the water cooler. I figured I'd drink more water if I had a water cooler, and I was right. I'm like a cat with one of those cat fountains.

You can heat sanitize glass and silicone in the dish washer, but if there's any stuck on debris that you can't get with a bottle brush, it will usually come off with a teaspoon of oxyclean in the bottle, and fill it about half way with clean water and shake it really well, then fill it up all the way and let it sit for a little while. Then pour it out and rinse it really well.

I've got one glass carboy and several plastic ones. The plastic ones are easier to handle, but in general I'm trying to move away from plastic and back to glass, ceramic, or metal containers for everything.

Don't buy smart home devices that require a cloud connection because the manufacturer *will* eventually brick them.
It's a waste of your money and a terrible amount of avoidable e-waste.
Instead, buy from companies who make devices that work with no cloud and/or with a free local option like Home Assistant.

Went to cancel a CC, but had to cash in pounts first, $200 in Amazon cards and $50 in Walmart cards. They arrived yesterday just in time for Prime days, and Walmart canceled a purchase I had pre ordered, so now I reordered with the gift card. I saved about $330 between Prine Days discounts and the cards.
Also got $50 back a purchase due to a 30 day price match and Prime Days

Pro-Palästinensische Demonstranten sollen in Berlin im Mai 2025 einen Polizisten mit der Dienstnummer 24111 "in die Menge gezogen und halb tot getrampelt" haben. Das behauptete jedenfalls die Berliner Polizei.

Videomaterial zeigt nichts dergleichen - dafür aber einen Beamten Nr. 24111 der auf Demonstrierende mit Fäusten einschlägt.

It really is nuts how a young person can fly to Israel and go play genocide games in Gaza for a while and then just fly back to their own country and expect to be treated like a normal member of society like it’s some kind of genocide summer camp.

Arizona resident dies from the plague less than 24 hours after showing symptoms

The US Navy vaccinated me against that, but that was about 50 years ago. I might need a booster.

I think that was a weakened pathogen vaccine, because it actually gave me mild symptoms, including swelling under my armpits and some fever.

I just read that the vaccine is no longer much used.

Basically, if there was a vaccine for something, we got it. There was a big swine flu outbreak in the 1970s; we got a vaccine against that too. Was this really necessary for submariners?
