I’d need a good reason to use my PC. The one I bought a few years back has, at most, 50 hours of use since coming out the box. Based on all the Linux communities posts, I’d spend more time than that just installing distros and troubleshooting my graphics card. I suspect the main reason people haven’t switched to Linux is bc 99% of desktop computers are owned by corporations not people

I’ve lived in my current home six years and I’m not even sure the windows are capable of opening. It’s wild to me that some people believe they’re gonna run out of oxygen if they don’t open a window

I learned in chapters.

1. Teen/young adult years I just got the basics down, how to cut meat and veggies depending on their application and making meals I grew up with and knew well.
2. Twenties, mostly cooking in restaurants learning new recipes and commiting the “correct way” to memory while learning foods from other cultures
3. Thirties, breaking out of my comfort zone and just making food that sounds like it’d work together instead of making what middle-of-the-road restaurants taught me. Lots of YouTube videos absorbing general concepts.

The biggest things I’ve learned is that food needs twice as much fat/oil as I think it does and three times as much salt. When I have bits of veggies I’m not gonna cook, I freeze them in a bag until I have enough to make a stock—it’s free flavor. Also, spice and season everything; I used to season my main ingredients and then just plop unseasoned ingredients on top thinking it’s fine (for example, an egg scramble needs salt and pepper added to both the eggs and the sautéed veggies)
