One of my favorite steam deck features is being able to use gyro controls for any game. It's not always as smooth as the Switch, but it works pretty well to add a bit of additional fine-grained control to the course-grained control of the R-stick.

The Great Oxidation Event

i dunno why you gotta call me out like that...

There's also a time component. Food can be quick, cheap, or healthy: but you can only choose two (at most). If people have to work for too many hours for shit pay, "unhealthy" becomes an undeniable option.

Maybe if they didn't spend so much money on those horrible TV ads they'd have enough for R&D. And evergreening isn't innovation anyways, so idk what they're on about.

One number to track them all,

I've seen US publications use it, too. But knowing it's a UK thing makes me feel better about it for some reason...

I've been experimenting with vegetarian options, and my go-to pantry-buster for stuff I generally always have on hand is this: sautee a chopped onion in a good helping of oil/butter. add a bit of flour (a tablespoon or so, but add it slowly while stirring) until you've got a nice roux-like consistency. Add a jar of curry paste, and a can of petite dice tomatos (with the juice) and a can of garbonzo beans (i drain mine). Add dried lentils and 70-80% the amount of water it suggests on the bag. Bring to a boil and simmer until the lentils are an acceptable texture. Enjoy with naan or by itself.
