This is why I don’t fuck guys who “don’t pay attention to politics”.
That means one thing, and it isn’t that they are blissfully unaware of the day to day happenings in their town, county, state, region, country, or planet of residence.
I didn’t have a wide array of choices, as I had a selection of printers in front of me at a brick and mortar store, but I went with the Brother HL-L2325DW. They offer a subscription (I don’t mind an optional convenience and monetization method) but they don’t disable your printer or force you to buy it.
It came with a full sized toner cartridge at about 3,000 pages compared to the “demo cartridge” most printers will give you with the unit, and it worked out of the Box with CUPS and Linux, and was supported by Brother for Windows and Mac.
Wildly enough there was a Linux utility too from Brother, but I didn’t need it.
I had to buy a printer recently. I intentionally went through all the information i could to find out which manufacturers pull this trick and bought their competitor instead.
Party of fiscal responsibility…
Just reminds me of how In 2016 a business owner friend of mine was saying that conservatives have more respect for the country and its institutions and that you would never see them crying and throwing a hissy fit about losing an election.
GOP principals and convictions age like milk in the sun.
George Jetson had an 17 minute work day with 2 hours a week and could afford a house, a hover car, a robot maid, enough money for his wife to spend the day shopping on top of household needs, enough extra to take care of a dog, and STILL enough leftover to allow elroy to be involved in extracurricular activities and to take the family on a vacation to the moon.
I worked two jobs at 50-60 hours a week and could only afford to rent a 1 bed apartment with almost nothing left over.
I wish I had came of age in that period of post war optimism that inspired that cartoon.
Edit: the Jetson’s takes place in the year 2062, we still have ~38 years or so to ensure our children can achieve that
This explains the brief wave of “Weaponized IRS” memes in late 2019 and early 2020 by “alleged Russian troll farms”.
Why don’t we put them in artificial wombs at the expense of the state and create a child army? Then when they age out of the military they can have full citizenship! /s
I already don’t like Microsoft or its products, but how in the Holy Fuck is that legal? You can’t at least use the edge on Xbox for that same functionality?
For a second I thought this was grafo
Kids these days don't even know this can of fucking beans... smh
This recipe is posted In honor of and in dedication to Lemmy meme history in the making.
This recipe was originally submitted to the church cookbook by my Aunt in the late 90's to early 2000's. She always brought the beans to whatever food function was being had, so naturally she was asked to share the recipe. I originally wasn't going to share this one in it's current state because it has many hallmarks of a badly written recipe. Though with a few tweaks I had a recipe that was ready to share for the most part. Maybe I'll revisit this one later and give it a proper reinventing as an open source recipe.
For best results (read picture perfect), ladle 1.5-2 fl oz of batter into a dry, preheated pan. For extra crispy edges, but some white discoloration. ladle batter into a well buttered or well oiled pan.
For extra style points add M&M's, chocolate chips, frozen blueberries, or any other creative mix in you can imagine.
Serve with butter and some real maple syrup for plain pancakes, or whipped cream alone for chocolate chip cakes and fresh fruit with whip for a fruit cake. You can try powdered sugar with caramel and baked apple slices, or really any other combination you can imagine!
This is truly a blank canvas of a recipe!
Even better when you talk them through that and watch them realize we will never go back to that post war economy because America can’t compete with a global stage that wasn’t bombed into oblivion by the Nazis.
1 ½ pounds extra-lean ground beef
½ onion, diced
1 green pepper, diced
2 cloves garlic, minced
2 cups water, divided
¾ cup ketchup
2 tablespoons brown sugar
1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
1 ½ teaspoons salt, or to taste
½ teaspoon ground black pepper
1 dash Worcestershire sauce
1 pinch cayenne pepper (or 2-4 drops tabasco sauce) to taste
1 tablespoon instant oatmeal, powderized in a food processor or herb grinder
hamburger buns, rolls or other bread
Place ground beef and onion in a large skillet over medium heat; cook and stir until beef is browned and crumbled, about 10 minutes.
Stir in green pepper and garlic; cook and stir until softened, 2 to 3 minutes. Add 1 cup water and stir, scraping the pan to dissolve any brown flavor bits from the bottom of the skillet.
Stir in ketchup, brown sugar, Dijon mustard, salt, black pepper, and Worcestershire sauce. Add remaining 1 cup water and bring mixture to a boil.
Add in some oatmeal powder and lower heat to simmer, simmering until thickened about 30 minutes while stirring occasionally. If the mixture is too loose to form sandwich filling out of comfortably at the 15 minute mark, add in some more oatmeal powder and simmer to firm up the mixture until desired consistency is met
Serve on hamburger buns, or whatever roll or bread you have on hand. For extra structural body to the sandwich toast the buns on a skillet or in a preheated oven or toaster oven.
Ayyy!
