I did say fancy.

Aren’t sqilte files themselves (like most other things) just fancy text files?

That view of the driver, looking out from the front passenger side out the driver’s window always makes me anxious for this reason. It’s like Chekhov’s gun. Why would they pick that angle unless the characters were about to get T-boned?

That one actually has some basis in reality though. My terminal still dings at me, it’s just that having it ding too much is annoying and out of fashion now. Does no one else remember PCs piezoelectric beeping, even before you upgraded to an actual soundcard?

Armchair pseudo-scientific thinking like this was why Mythbusters became so popular. They even devoted at least one episode to this very myth. Spoiler, hydrogen wasn’t what made that particular lead ballon unsafe.

Nutmeg does interesting things to savoury foods. It’s subtle though. It’s often like a background singer making the other flavors better more than being a diva in its own right. I haven’t added nutmeg to potatoes yet, but now I think I might try it. I usually add some fresh ground nutmeg to my spinach and bacon quiche. Nutmeg would also be right at home in a sweet potato pie. So why not mashed potatoes?

Hot take: to Most windows users (not you) probably shouldn’t be able to access power shell or cmd.exe at all.

You’re either responding to the wrong comment. Can’t read. Or you think straw man arguments are valid.

I never said either was better, just that’s it’s foolish to confuse or compare the two.

If your bagel is dry and you can’t distinguish it from normal bread, you’ve never actually had a real bagel.

Tell me you’ve never had a decent bagel without telling me you’ve never had a decent bagel. A bagel is not a roll.

I never said either was better, just different.

There is almost certainly a way to do it which a focus on privacy. That’s just a technical problem. But nobody’s going to profit from it so it will never be developed.

You’re probably not preparing your garlic correctly for the recipe. It’s not always about volume.

If you can remove the alcohol from any “cocktail” and still have more than just flavored ice or a dirty glass, you were drinking slightly alcoholic mocktails the whole time.

Old Fashioned mocktail is a cherry on top of a large ice cube that you’ve used to bludgeon some sugar and an orange.

A Sazerac mocktail is akin to an empty glass someone just drink a sweet lemony drink from. You don’t get the lemony drink, just the dirty glass.

A margarita mocktail is salty lime flavored ice. This is basically a daquiri mocktail too, adding a strawberry seems popular.

A Manhattan mocktail is a sweetened cherry in an otherwise empty glass.

A mojito mocktail is a bit more substantial, minty sugar water with a hint of lime.

A mint julep mocktail, again just minty sugar water.

A white Russian mocktail is just a glass of cream over ice.

A mimosa mocktail is just a nearly empty glass of orange juice.

The non-alcoholic parts of a cocktail are rarely more than a quarter of the volume if they’re made properly. Most cocktails are a half oz of sugar water and a citrus flavor. The other 2/3 of the volume (not counting the ice) is alcohol. Just order a soda, soda water (with or without a garnish), tea, or my favorite a Topo Chico and lime.

Not all that uncommon for the genre and the time. Fitting too, given the story, wouldn’t you say?

Harlan Ellison also helped turn his story into a pretty cool game.
