I was on the final day of an overseas trip. I’d been there for several weeks, and my wife flew over and joined me for the last week to see the sights.

I’d eaten the hotel breakfast buffet almost every day of my stay with no issues. So, I grabbed my usual items, including some buffet line shakshuka (an eggs, feta, and tomato stew). It may have been sitting out a while…. Thankfully my wife opted for something else. Yum yum, check out, drop stuff off at my company’s HQ, off the airport, drop the rental, etc.

We were sitting in the airport inside the security check when it started - nausea, sweats, and bad cramps. Not the best look when in a foreign country with serious (and slow) airport security. Got through, beelined to the bathroom, and I thought I got it out from both ends. I boarded the plane feeling a bit better, but it ramped up again once we were onboard and continued for the entirety of the 13 hour flight home. I have seen immense torment inside the tiny bathroom of a 747 airliner, and I think I spent more time in there than my seat. When I did make it out, I sat shivering and sweaty in my seat for a few minutes before I had to go again.

I was thankful my wife was there to keep me hydrated and that the plane was empty enough that I could grab a seat row near the back for myself to lie down, instead of climbing over some poor bastard every time.

Surprisingly, I still like shakshuka.

American here, what’s exciting in Swedish politics these days? I’d like some reprieve from the dumpster fire that is America for a minute.

Go ahead and explain open source to Sen. Bloodfeast. His response will most certainly contain the word “communism”.

Are you in the US? Bawls is a Guarana soda sold here. Can’t find it locally very often (Meijer, sometimes) but you can order directly from their website.

Bawls

Yes, the name is stupid; still my favorite soda.

Just don’t put it on your home network. I have an LG C3(?) from 2018 that is a perfectly good dumb TV without the WiFi password.

The mind and body may go, but the heart remains. He sacrificed his own aspirations to give Kamala the best possible chance of burying Trump. Legendary final chapter, 10/10, would vote Dem again.

I also have a no Samsung policy, because of their refrigerators.

What an awesome project - thanks for sharing the details!!

This ain’t no party, this ain’t no disco, this ain’t no foolin’ around.

Unexpected Einhar. Nice.

Yes, and some of Reddit’s “finest” detective work was on display while searching for the suspects.

Definitely garlic mustard. Should be purple at the base of the stems, and the root will have a bit of a hook to it.

I spend a lot of time clearing this stuff in my wooded yard, as it’s highly invasive.

I tried doing a TimeShift restore last week for another software issue, and nvidia drivers crapped the bed (again). Decided it was time to bite the bullet and swapped out my 1080 Ti with a 7700 XT. Did a clean install of Manjaro, and it was eerie how simple it was to get everything including Wayland to work. Should’ve done it two years ago.

Command line stupidity, not Bad Dragon stupidity.

I just hated that Windows had become a privacy cesspit and I wasn’t afraid of breaking things in Linux. Also, I accept that sometimes you just have to format and reinstall your sins of stupidity away.

PS - You Lemmy bastards did get me into Star Trek though. Maybe it has begun…

AFAIK, Milwaukee makes no claim to a particular style of pizza. We just make beer that goes damn well with any style - Lakefront Brewery’s Riverwest Stein being my top pick.

I just picked it up to play casually on steam deck, and it’s fun; in the same vein as Animal Crossing with a 16 bit RPG style. Plenty of depth and homestead building. You are correct that it’s a huge time suck, but unlike AC, you don’t have FOMO of missing days/events when you don’t play. It’s been a great de-stress distraction when I’ve needed it most.

I’ll line up to give you a high five on that! It’s a damn good feeling to hit that milestone. Great job!
