I was excited at first, because I thought I could still chat with friends who won’t leave Discord.

Try telling that to your mother who’s been handling the turkey for decades.
You get what you get and you either like it or you shut up and pretend that you do, because that’s your mum and she’s tired and hasn’t seen you in weeks and turkey is always a little dry, trust me I know, I’ve been doing this since before you were born, eat it with some cranberry sauce, have you seen your cous…
I can and have cooked turkey for myself.
I have "won" at turkey.
When I lived on my own and worked in the restaurant industry, I took it as a point of pride to figure out how to do it well.
I tried brines, but found that simple salting and leaving it on the bottom shelf overnight was easier and just as effective.
And that cutting it up and cooking each part via sous vide was a more reliable way to cook the meat to an even tenderness.
And that I could still brown the skin on a cast iron pan on high heat afterwards.
And then experiment with sauces and dressing and spices because that’s where a lot of the flavor and fun came from (for me).
And then decided it just wasn’t worth it. Not when I can cook a chicken, a duck, and a Cornish hen for half the effort.
If you want to go through the effort and expense of doing it because that makes it special to you and you enjoy it, more power to you.
But Thanksgiving seems more like ritual torture for the vast majority of people who do it because we collectively accepted that it’s “what you’re supposed to do”.
I support your right to love turkey at any level of doneness.
I should have specified that it’s not worth it to families (or grocery store employees) to collectively pressure everyone in the country to buy a turkey during the same one-week period.
Rather than all of that stress, I’d rather we collectively agree that it’s just not worth it.
Cook smaller poultry.
It’s easier to cook evenly and it usually tastes better anyway.

Just show yourself doing stuff on the computer like a normal person on
Windowswhat Windows used to be like.The biggest hurdle for most users is (I think) the mistaken belief that Linux must be complicated.
This is because the turkey is always so dry.

100% they should. Live your dream, Science Team.
Because the steps for Xitter were :
- Want a Xitter
- Go to Xitter
- Create an account
- Enjoy(?) Xitter
Even one extra step that adds friction can lead to you just not doing the thing.
Mega-corpos spend billions to reduce the number of steps to your wallet, because they make it back tenfold.
The stuff saved on my phone’s not for the faint of heart but… you do you, Ancient Terror.

Update: Yep, still nothing.
I’ll check again after 24 hours to see if Lemmy does anything.
The Linux Experiment showed content, but Coffeezilla and Louis Rossman show empty for some reason.
The rat-thing was, in fact, poisonous.
I am beginning to remember what made me think Jellyfin wasn’t user friendly.
Maybe it wasn’t the user interface after all.
Tl;dr:
- PhotoPrism: Local AI with strong privacy but heavier setup.
- LibrePhotos: Same, but less polished, more community-built.
- Immich: Best self-hosted Google Photos alternative.
- Ente Photos: E2E encrypted, low-maintenance, most “plug and play”
I hate the implication that these pillows actually exist somewhere out in the world.
