  • Wish I could but I can’t stand neither beans nor rice. Gotta have meat and green veggies in my meal.

    That means that I only like chili without beans. At Asian restaurants I always ask for no rice and substitute noodles. The only beans I can tolerate are refried. So at Mexican restaurants I ask for no rice and double beans.

    While we’re at it, I don’t like potatoes, either. I’ll eat them, but I won’t go out my way to order them, unless the alternative side dish selection is no better.

    Edit: FWIW I’ll eat it all if I’m hungry, but none of these things would be my first choice.

    I agree, and that’s why I buy that protein pasta with the pea and legume flours added in the mix. It’s loaded with vitamins & minerals, so you’re getting more than just carbs for dinner.

    The best part is unlike that whole wheat and vegetable pasta crap, it tastes exactly the same to my taste buds as regular pasta. Only catch is that it’s about $1.25 more per package, but absolutely worth it for the extra nutrients.

    Switch to Stremio (with Torrentio) and never worry about running out of storage space again. Everything is streamed directly to your TV, no downloading necessary. Browse like it’s Netflix and just pick something then watch it. Plus there’s support for home theater enthusiasts with features like HDR, Dolby Atmos, 4K, etc.









  • Reminds me of how you used to be able to control various unsecured IP security cams by typing part of the URL that is common among them into Google.

    I remember stumbling upon some random office building in China and was able to fully control every camera in the place. I never did anything beyond pan them around a bit—and nobody ever reacted to my antics—so I guess the camera movements either weren’t very obvious or staff was just used to being watched by management/random people.


  • A someone with anxiety and depression, I think I have this.

    I can’t be bothered with worrying about everyone else’s well-being, when every waking moment I’m just one bad day away from having a complete mental breakdown. I simply do not have the emotional stability to handle anyone else’s drama.

    When I told my psychologist this, their only response was “you’re fine; you clearly have empathy”. So I went to another, and another, who both said the same thing. So I stopped going. The pills don’t work anyway so I was just wasting my money.

    I wish I could afford a therapist.
