The 2L bottle is for when the stuff on the top doesn't satisfy anymore.

So you'd also get screwed if you routinely are parked somewhere without any cellular access? Nice design.

I agree, though my biggest headache has been with systemd handling mounts. You have to modify a ton of units to add After and Required to make sure the NFS shares you have in fstab get mounted before starting services that depend on them. And then if the package maintainer updates their unit files, all your changes disappear!

Such a huge headache compared to the classic init.d that mounted everything very early -- with just the occasional "boot delayed a couple seconds because your share was offline" or such.

The guy has burnt out all his tastebuds and likes the non-taste hydroponics.

Yeah, I guess I'm a weirdo if I don't find the theme "misleading people for my own benefit" to be funny either.

Cool, a new way to smuggle viruses into corporate environments. Everyone makes sure to disable USB sticks, but you can apparently do similar stuff via HDMI or DP?

Plumping is just injecting saltwater into the meat after it has already been killed. And that's fine, as neither salt nor water are forbidden in Islam. The only thing that could matter is that it's clearly labeled on the packaging how much percentage the meat is vs how much saltwater was added, as you're not supposed to be deceptive.

But considering some countries generally lax product labeling laws, I assume you could still get a greyzone, where it could be labeled as "halal-slaughtered chickens" - but the actual product wouldn't pass a stricter control due to undisclosed brine.

So it's also likely you have a good grocer, but just know that you can't automatically trust some halal-stamp if you want to avoid plumping.

I've driven a poorly designed car without many safety features for years, and I've never flown through the windshield, ever.

Huh, what does halal have to do with this? Halal-slaughtered chickens are allowed to be plumped as well.

Does anyone know what these are called? I legitimately want to buy a set for my frenemy.

"it's only regarding two consecutive terms" or something.

Good. If they want that name protected, they should go back to being an open source nonprofit.

 

Probably one of the "longest" hotels I've been to. BW in Linköping.
