How does it fare compared with the standard Mint?

I’ve been considering try it but because of the focus on Cinamon I keep delaying it.

If memory serves me well, Yugos were made in former Yugoslavia and were known for being extremely cheap and dangerous for everyone in and around them. Am I correct?

But this makes me scratch my head.

American manufacturers exist in Europe today and regardless of not being a fan the cars sell, regardless the constant attempts to introduce pure US models, like the F series.

Ford may be the most widespread manufacturer but I’ve seen a few Dodge, Chevrolet (but GM officially pulled from the market after a 3 years run, stating it wasn’t willing to remain in a market where a minimum 25% of market share wasn’t attainable; competition sucks, apparently!), JEEP and Chrysler.

What is stopping these brands to import back the technology being used here, on their european models, back to the home country? It’s already owned here!

I remember reading an article on a joint project between GM and FIAT to develop a new and shared platform. After X number of years and a gross amount of money invested, GM drops the project, FIAT finishes it and starts building an entire new generation of cars, still being built today.

Why put time, money and effort into a project to just drop it? Having a shared platform, capable of being used to assemble vehicles on both sides of the ocean makes sense.

Write as you see fit your story should be. You can’t please both greeks and trojans. If you think a given character is necessary, put them in your story.

And taking a risk of sounding ignorant and out of touch: why such concern for skin colors?

Security risk, by their own admissal.

Please don’t.

I am aware what Discord is for and respect it but it’s ectic to be in a Discord room. Signal does not need it.

party pizza

this is going to sound strange but I’m not even aware of what that implies

I live in a simple place: pizza comes in small, medium and large. Anything else, you order and pay it by weight/ingredients.

I wasn’t even aware what it was and every single result the search engine returned was around the lines of “recipe for a cake to serve to a large number of people”.

You usually make a recipe to be small and just multiply the volume of ingredients in order to serve more.

not the other way around

You made me find what a sheet cake was and I am sincerely horrified.

I have one and use it but I use my knives daily and use them well, as I carve my own meat cuts, prepare vegetables, fruits, etc.

For someone that enjoys cooking, I am aware I am lacking on the knives upkeep department. Sharpening by hand always fails me and my only mildly successful atempt involved using a belt sander on a moderate speed to try to emulate a grinding stone.

I’ll have that information in mind the next time I try to sharpen the knives. Last time I tried, I think I made the blades even more blunt then it already were.

Have that information stamped on a blade.

As a wannabe author, I could only be so lucky to get my work “pirated”. Free publicity.

I understood you were referring to regular blades.

My respect for caring for your knives as you do. It’s something I find challenging, to say the least.

I have to look up for those Thai Zebra. Never heard of it before. I usually buy domestic knives (IVO); we still have a few good manufacturers but I don’t know if they export enough to be widespread.

I was once told their knives are not supposed to be sharpened. Or at least at a home setting. I was in a store, so I automatically take every word told to me with an extra grain of salt.

Never done it, but sharpening a serrated blade is not an easy task. Most will just wear down such a blade until rendered unusable and discard it afterwards.

For some reason, unclear even to myself, I have a serious dislike for Victorinox.

There are a few of those in the kitchen (didn’t bought a single one) and I can’t feel comfortable using it; it’s as if it doesn’t quite fit into my hand properly.

But if it that knife does the job for you, good!

The bread on the background, is it homemade or store bought? Looks nice.

Sand and lack of oil.

Smart ass replies aside, if I’m low on sleep, anything - and I do mean anything - has the potencial to grind my gears.

They accomplish that and the already diminutive presence they have in the world will shrink even more.

If that is enough for your needs, that’s fine.

i’m going to ignore your posting history and assume for a moment you aren’t a contrarian debate pervert.

Thank you for your consideration.

why do you feel the need to agree with people but then say ‘but that’s not how it works today’?

Because those people are correct. But at the same time, right now, there is no viable option (to my knowledge) to completely erase the things we agree on.

i see these types of comments in every comment section about societal problems. ‘i agree X needs to change to Y, but we don’t have Y today, sweaty. 💅’ like- what? are you all really just trolls, or do you really think you’re being insightful and helpful? because this isn’t what a discussion looks like. it’s dis-miss-ion.

I’m not dismissing anything; I’m admiting it is wrong while at the same time admiting there are no alternatives to end it today, tomorrow or in the foreseeable future.

The simple admission of something being wrong, opens the doors to debate. Debate generates change of thought. Change of thought enacts action.

We do not need to fully agree on anything and none of us is required to understand the other perspective but at best we may be cordial enough to respect that we are in our right to hold different opinions, without the need to consider the other is mocking us.

If humans would treat nature and themself better we wouldn’t need any “beauty” products or even any medication in the first place.

How?

Just to artificially look “better” or live longer?

Vanity is a flaw, I agree. Age is not something to be ashamed of.

Everything that happens to us, is because our own selfishness ego to think we are the “alpha” product who owns everything, while we are just dumpshit animals with no respect for nothing.

Hubris is to blame for many mistakes people do but no animal or living being has respect for anything else besides the immediate survival. Animals will destroy others habitats, food, brood, etc, because the others impede their way.

You wan’t to test some product? Go test it on criminals or orther deranged humans and leave those poor animals alone. But no, testing on non volunteer human is not ethical correct??

Why criminals? Why not simply use any individual. If consent is the crux of the matter, let’s go that way full force.

Oh yeah that’s were we draw the line.

Yes. It’s called self preservation. All life is to be protected until there is no other option than to end it and carry the burden for such choice. We don’t live in Dante’s Inferno.
