The first question I proposed to Copilot was simply, "what new hit product can McDonald's bring to market today?" The response was potentially more shocking than this one since I spec'd insect-derived proteins in the one I posted. The response was some sort of maximum vegan abomination McVegan with "cheese" or something. I've enjoyed some vegan patties before, but I draw the line at fake foods like vegan cheese. Also seemed dubious this new product heavily characterized as vegan even in the naming would be a hit product in America. I'd probably try one but I'm pretty open-minded.
I suspect the nationalities of the programmers at Microsoft might have a lot to do with all this vegan and insect protein business. When I worked there at the main Redmond campus, the programmers seemed to be about 40% Chinese, 40% Indian, 19% white, 1% other. These were almost entirely immigrants with many from rich families that were able to arrange dual nationalities for their kids. Not a criticism mind you -- just an observation. Hate the game not the player.
Oh I agree. I'm a big Texas BBQ loving guy, but I can see the writing on the wall. I just got a big kick out of the naming and the "cricket chunks" as being marketable to anyone remotely American. I believe they're already slipping cricket protein into products under a pseudonym like they did with cochineal.
As a species, we are going to have to feed ourselves more sustainably, or seriously reduce the population. I suspect our benevolent leaders are already working on a version the second option -- reduce the population of everyone else.
The stir fry ones are badass!
It was the first one, Alien, for me. I was maybe four. Nightmares didn't stop until my late twenties, but it's my favorite movie now. No movies scared me after that!
Even a paranoid schizophrenic is right twice a day..
Cover the body with quicklime before burying..
So this is where all those plastic babies in King Cakes are coming from..
Harbor Freight to the rescue!
I used to hit the TX state police auctions pretty often. I really liked the 9C1 Caprice basically the car the 1994-1996 Impala was based on. A little bit Cadillac, a little bit Camaro. Iron block and heads version of the LT1 improved reliability/durability. Could take speed bumps at 70 mph without flinching and was a phenomenal highway car especially for TX. Highway Patrol (DPS) cars are issued to specific troopers and not whored out to the whole department on a 24 hour rotation, so they are generally much better looked after.
Anyway I happened to hit one auction that was unique. Before, they put a really crappy paint job on to cover up the black and white paint scheme. After, they cheaped out and just spray painted white squigglies all over the car. I picked up a nice 1995 still black and white 9C1 for $2600.
Rocketing between Houston and Austin at over 100 mph, cars would move over to let me pass. Cops on the other side heading the other way would wave instead of pulling me over. On the rare occasion I did get pulled over, the registration showed previous owner as DPS since I bought directly from them myself. So I always got off with a warning.
Man I miss that car. They quit making them so they could make more SUVs..
Also the DPS Mustangs were stick shift so of course I grabbed one of those too!
Got any horror stories or tips as an insider?
