I've turned a few older neighbors on to Linux when they complained that window updates caused their PC's to run too slow.

I'd tell them 'before you go out and buy a new computer, let me install Linux if you don't like it, you lose nothing. In the end, each one of them was happy their computer was running like new again.

I use Ghee or Tallow when cooking. Both are solid at room temperature. I wait for the left over grease to cool down, and wipe it up with a paper towel. Easy peasy.

Well that was a truly sad story.

On the last update, I browsed Amazon for some product, and Amazon had a pop up, kind of, that asked if I would like them to weed out fake reviews. Of course I opted in. Had it save me a couple times now.

Sorry for the late reply.

I updated my Firefox browser. Now, when viewing a product on Amazon, Firefox rates the reviews A-F based on whether or not they are reliable.

Exactly. Up until the early 80's it was used to treat patients in psychiatric wards. Then Reagan squashed it.

John Hopkins is one of the few research hospitals still allowed to experiment with it, along with psilocybin, and LSD. They have for many years declared positive results with patients who suffered from PTSD, depression, anxiety, etc.

Why not take the cells of farm animals and create steaks, etc?

You can put saltine crackers in the freezer and they won't freeze. They'll just stay crispy.
