    Twenty years or so ago I’d give MS credit for helping spawn a global PC hardware industry by standardizing an OS platform. I figured not just the Nvidias and Intels but the Dells, the EVGAs, and the MSIs all were a net positive and supported by there being a windows.

    This was because I always compared them to Apple.

    So much more now I understand the folly of being limited to comparing the bad choices and ignoring the good options.

    Yeah with veggies only and no noodle it stays solidly salad until 50%. The 80/20 veggie-water split is what separates dry salad from salad.

    The noodle content just pushes a salad into a soup with less water content than the soup/broth interface does with salad. So clay of noodle.

    Think tuna salad, or chicken, or potato.

    Keep adding water. The consistency then divides between broth and soup.

    Roll it in your hand. If you can form a ball with the leftover material you’re likely in soup territory. If there’s nothing left over or there’s not enough consistency to form a ball it’s a broth.

    …If you can form a ribbon with the ball it’s got some noodle content, I guess.





  • In short: sewer socialism.

    I had spent years street protesting the war in Iraq, and had grown tired of trying to build community and organize in a college town.

    So I moved out into a deep rural (and red) part of the country and got a job working in Public Health. This was well before covid and I just started working with grant money to help people retrofit and upgrade their septic systems.

    It was a government job and it did more good for more people than I think any damage I did to police or federal property.

    And from there I kept working and seeing benefits of public health and infrastructure. There’s a lot to the state and government that I don’t like, but public infrastructure is the valid basis of a state.
