I'm assuming 31k kcal, which confusingly everyone calls a calorie. There's no way it's only 31kcal.

Smoked is very good too.

Mussels are different. Both are good, but yeah mussels are better as part of a dish, especially with a lot of butter.

Yeah, it's an exploit but it doesn't seem illegal. It seems like the issue is with whatever service. They need to fix their contract or their software. Maybe it is in the contract or EULA that you can't do this sort of thing already though, in which case it's fair game.

For real, that big salty lugee is great! Did you know they're actually alive when you eat them? They also don't have pain receptors IIRC so they're a very ethical source of protein. - actual oyster enjoyer

I guess you could call it alpha testing, but I'd just call it smart development. They have to make these things anyway, so add the pieces that work into the existing game so you can make more money while you work on the new game. You also get free press and good PR for giving existing owners more stuff. It only makes sense.

(There are some people who will cry "asset reuse" and complain probably, but in what world is doing more with less bad? Reusing stuff you made is smart and good so you can focus on new things.)

The first thing I'll say is the reason you're more comfortable with Windows is because you've been using it for however long and learning to deal with the issues it has. The same needs to be done on Linux. You'll have to learn how it works just like you forgot you did for Windows.

Second, along with logs like other users said, you have to know how to use a search engine well. Most issues will be easy to solve, but some may take some searching. The Arch wiki is a good resource even if you aren't using Arch.

For me, I'm more concerned about getting bacteria into the highly nutritious PB. If you're only eating one spoonful then fine. I wouldn't stick a spoon that's been in my mouth back into the container though. I have done this "meal" though, but I scoop how much I want into a bowl first. Maybe drizzle some honey or something onto it.

They're only halting sales. My guess is they're going to make the switch to F2P. It'll take time to build and rework the systems for that though, so they're taking it offline while they do it. I could be wrong, but I don't think so. From the article: "at this time, we have decided to take the game offline beginning September 6, 2024, and explore options, including those that will better reach our players." That implies it's at least not dead for good.

Still, not interested in it at any price really. It looked super generic. That market is crowded with good competitors so they need to do something new to stand out, not just copy what others have done.

I agree with eating healthy, but if you're buying cheese-it's, as an example, the generic brand is equally bad for you as the name brand. You should still try to make healthy choices, but name brand doesn't make anything healthy.

Also, part of the issue is real green technology requires some people to change their business and/or lose some profits. If we do carbon capture or other things, that creates a product to sell. It's a bullshit product that is worse than other options, but if they can it's easier for politicians to sell this to donors than something that'll hurt a very rich industry. Syphon money from taxpayers to make sure the rich dirty energy companies can keep making huge profits and give the tax money to some other rich people to clean up the thing the other guys are doing.

Most people are being very specific, but I'd say consumables in general. Rarely is a name brand food or medicine any different than generic. Often they're literally produced in the same factory. Stuff that's meant to last, generally a more expensive product will be made more durable (not always), but this isn't a consideration with consumables. If it's a one-time use or edible, I'm going with the cheapest option 99% of the time.

Bookmarks are too permanent. Tabs are for things I'm interested in but don't really care about (and so I'll probably never get back to). I use different windows for different types of things, so it's organized. I just have an alias to kill Firefox when I want to game.
