The rich are the problem, something needs to be done about them. I’m hungry.

Edit- ugh, embarrassing misspelling left up too long.

Exactly, the vision was flawless, it will all be blamed on the execution. The people who failed to build it will be held accountable though; departments of them…

Fucking awesome system we have here.

Thanks, I’ll look there. I usually just go Amazon or Newegg (easy returns if bad) but I’m sure there are better deals out there.

I used to pay like $69 for them in the US. Looks like they add a hundred bucks or so to the price…

I’ve got 30tb or so made up of 4 and 10tb used drives. All I’ll buy anymore. In fact, I need to change out of of my parity drives. Hopefully used market is still somewhat affordable.

I already have my nodes up and running. It’s been picking up like mad lately, much more chatter than this time last year.

Exactly, he was holding a phone and a gun and she didn’t even knock him off balance while he called her a “fucking bitch” as he murdered her.

He’s going to be given or will steal Machado’s peace prize and will crow non-stop about winning it. Another, aggrievement based, ego-soothing tour is on the books.

Oh come on now, the dems give everyone on their side a pass. Look at Al Franken, what he did was way worse than anything in the Epstein files and got off scott free.

Er, wait…that is what happened, right?

Yes, just because they also voted for racism, doesn’t absolve them of the rest of the plainly obvious shit they were voting for. Racism is expensive.

I mean, the reason is that it’s one of the main ingredients of mirepoix, and most people don’t find it offensive. It’s one of those background flavors that you don’t pick out, but is part of the typical base.

What I’m getting at is that if you don’t like it, just don’t use it. It’s there because whoever made it, decided to put it in.

Celery is genuinely one of my favorite parts of soups that use them. I LOVE the flavor or celery, and it is even better when it picks up the rest of the flavors of the dish.

To answer yours and the other questions about “why this ingredient”, the answer is very simple. Some people like it.

If you don’t, then don’t use it, problem solved.
