  • I appreciate the suggestion. It’s been great hearing about the exciting new regulations coming out of Europe, such as USB C on iPhones and replaceable batteries on mobile devices. It’s great that the European government looks out for the people like that. Sadly here in the US many of our lawmakers are beholden to corporations and special interests and there is very little in the way of enforcement for anticompetitive action.



  • I like pickling things. Pickled Red Onions are delicious and easy, and Pickled Green Beans are probably my favorite. Fresh Green Beans can be had by the big bag for about two bucks. Throw in a couple Habanero peppers for spice, maybe $.50 worth of seasoning, $.50 worth of vinegar if you buy it by the gallon, and you have some delicious cheap snacks that are also relatively healthy. The worst ingredients would be salt and sugar, but you can minimize its use to taste when you make them yourself. I guess it’s all relative, but to me a few bucks for a quart jar of quality homemade pickles checks all the boxes when it comes to cheap, healthy, and delicious. It does take a bit of prep work though so it’s definitely better if you enjoy that type of thing.
