Wanton is not "yun tun" in Mandarin, it's "hun tun" (馄饨) but it does have a lot of local variance; most people I know in the north tend to say "dun" but the two sounds are pretty similar if said fast. Neat article though and I agree that food terms are impossible to translate, especially as single terms. They need context.

Slightly surprised they didn't mention "spit/saliva/drool chicken" (口水鸡) but I guess there is only so much room and way to many examples!

Ha, you should have gone to the cybersecurity for a diagnosis!

A boiled egg or two with a tiny drizzle of soy sauce and a banana.

Could you share a bit on how to identify and block offenders with AppManager?

Unfortunately it's also the only advice that works, in a trite and tautological way. You either find the willpower (in the addiction research it seems that some sort of "religious awakening" or "higher purpose" seems to be key) or you struggle with your addiction to the end.

The comment elsewhere about HAVING to eat was eye opening to me. For some reason I never made that connection - the cocaine addict doesn't have to do just a tiny line a few times a day. They can kick it permanently. A food addict has to face their temptations every meal...

Bingo. In my experience most people dealing with obesity are dealing with an underlying addiction problem. It requires a huge change at a deep level that is impossible for some and not hard for others. Hence the widely varying responses to GP in this thread.

Might not be true for all setups, but I find that Plex is a resource hog. Navidrome and Jellyfin are a lot leaner. Plex was using quite a bit of CPU just browsing the library.

Plexamp sounds awful to me, trebly and thin. Googling around I found it was a common complaint.

It DOES handle multichannel audio well, though I don't think it can do Atmos natively.

I think this is the path. I like jellyfin but I find it has trouble with some files on some devices. Kodi handles pretty much everything. Not as nice for browsing though.

Locally. It's a bit harder if you want remote access... I ended up using a reverse proxy and let's encrypt certs... It wasn't to bad but it wasn't easy. I have never looked into Tailscale or similar solutions though, maybe those are just click and go.

Yes but you have to use the S1 player and run a second container with middleware, bonob. At least that's what ended up working for me.

Soulseek provides a similar experience! You browse users' files and find folks with great collections of cool stuff.

I'm glad you put your head out there and had the balls to say it.

It's nut lost on me.

Eggs, of course!

Interestingly I use why I know as the Berluti knot but the method and result is different than Ian's. I feed the loose ends back through the loop whereas he does not. I love the symmetric look and tightness of the hold. Great for dress shoe-type laces. Method as I use is here:

I wonder if this will make him feel guilty for feeling guilty

You might like Graeber's book "The Dawn of Everything". He goes into some of the scientific historic reasons for why.

Correct. Some friends and I started saying "throw it aways" instead. I think it much better describes the actual situation. It didn't really catch on, though I wish it would.

Prius V! Hybrid, not fully EV, and they don't make them anymore.

Not a citation, but I believe it's a mediocritizing measure. For some teachers and some students, teaching to the test is probably better. I suspect more heavily concentrated in the bottom 50% of each group. For a subset of great teachers and great students, it's a detriment.

As part of 9th grade biology we had to read "Microbe Hunters". The grades ahead insisted that it was awful and boring but I devoured the whole thing in a weekend. So thankful that it was part of the curriculum.

Targeting profit rarely helps. The big players can afford the financial engineers to make the profits negligible from an accounting perspective. Likely funneled into growth. The small players cannot, so you put them in a situation where selling to a big player is rational. And the oligopoly grows.

Welcome to the human race!

The question there is _which_woman_? The one going to get the procedure or the one on the sharp end of needle? So the question one might ask you is "from whose perspective is murder trivial?" Neither seem trivial to me, which is probably why it's such a contentious issue. Framing it like you do seems mostly just to dehumanize the other side. I'm probably with you in how we should treat this, but I also worry about the slippery slope problem - at what point is it no longer ok to abort? If six months, then why not six months and a day? Then why not a moment before birth? Then why not after birth? What is the magical moment where we say the "clump of cells" becomes "human"? Trying to answer that question feels like it unavoidably treads into religious grounds even for the non-religious.

I'm guessing it's more to do with the interaction of the gravitational vectors of sun and moon. During a half-moon it is pulling at a right angle to the sun, during a new-moon with the sun, and during a full-moon against the sun.

Note also that all those old cards were done on physical media, whereas today almost all the cards are done digitally. So the modern cards are much more _detailed_. Check out the Jesper Ewing cards like Frantic Scapegoat. He's notable for creating real paintings. To me they capture a bit of the old feel.

And when it runs out, those of us who have made sacrifices now to provide for old age will be a wealthy, "privileged" target.

I feel like the criminals would kill the eagle pretty quickly

The Beijing dishes are legit too.

Why the CEO instead of the board?
