  • This is also far from my personal experience, you might not even realize what free software you’re depending on?

    Your browser is most likely the most complex piece of software you interact with daily and it is most likely FOSS. The Linux kernel is FOSS and is incredibly robust. Most compiler suites, FOSS. Most programming languages, FOSS. These are all incredibly well written and robust tools. AOSP, kinda FOSS, and the forks like Graphene are definitely FOSS. Hell even a lot of macOS programs are actually FOSS. I could go on and on, there is absolutely amazing work being done on FOSS by incredibly talented people.

    There is great paid and proprietary software out there, sure, but no it’s not the majority of top quality software in my personal experience and likely a lot of people’s experiences and it is almost guaranteed to rely on a FOSS library somewhere






  • Lol I drove at least a mile with my Thinkpad on top of the car. Some dude next to me at a stop light honking and miming saved me. Got up to 40mph with it still on top though!

    Also did this with my cell phone and numerous water bottles. I really need to stop considering the roof a viable temporary storage location.

    Ragu is a general term for meat sauces some of which have tomatoes but not all. The recipe I use I wouldn’t call a “tomato sauce” but it has tomatoes. In the US most ragus are much more tomato forward if that’s your frame of reference.

    This is kinda funny, and I know the concept of “authentic” isn’t particularly easy to nail down, but my experience is that Italian lasagna doesn’t have tomato sauce. It’s always been thin pasta, a ragu, and bechamel. It generally changes to match the tastes and ingredients of where it’s being made, but maybe you’d like the version I know.

    I had moussaka in Greece a few years ago and liked it too!
