    What Game Boy game do you love that you never hear anyone talk about?
  • James Bond: 007 was a surprisingly good game that I enjoyed way more than expected. I don’t know why I got the game, I was and have never been a fan of the series.

    Google Messages for web gets animated emoji, updated branding
  • that’s wild, I don’t understand how they so consistently screw up messaging. It seems like Fi went from being a seamless experience (hangouts integration) to an afterthought.

  • wait, what? I used to be on Fi and I used Messages and RCS without issue. I would not be surprised if google fucked things up here, but I’m also surprised Fi still exists.

    Or we could fund the the education system to provide teachers with what they need to do their job
  • The individual is suggesting a widespread practice (“teacher shower”) that would only further ingrain the current system. OP is implying that we shouldn’t do that.

    Need new cookware
  • All-clad is nice, but the $150 Tramontina set (on sale) from Costco is going to be 93% of the same experience… IMO

    Get a Le Crueset enameled cast iron dutch oven. That’s BIFL and you will use it a lot.

    I suggest at least 1 carbon steel pan - De Buyer or Matfer, probably the 9.5 inch. This is your workhorse. Carbon steel is more versatile IMO than cast iron.

    Personally I’m fine with Lodge cast iron for a 12 inch. I use this often for smash burgers or a big stir fry. Lodge doesn’t make the smoothest or best cast iron pans but they are great with a little work, and will last forever like any other.

    Keep one 10 inch nonstick. Use it rarely, like for eggs and stuff.

    Giving up on selfhosted email / Any sane email setups?
  • unless you realllllly enjoy self hosting your email, IMO it’s just not worth it anymore with the state of things. I use Fastmail and could not be happier.

    what's your all time favorite cereal?
  • I remember when puffs were released back in the mid 90s. I had one of those small sample boxes, and right after I poured the milk my parents got into a big fight and I didn’t get to eat the freshly milked puffs. When I ate them later they were sogged :(
