It has some similarities but if I called this fried rice Uncle Roger would have a fit.

You people?

I’m not even talking about the user side. I’m focusing on the business reality side. Any manufacturer that only puts out five models is going to be out of business. It’s not the way I want it but it is the business reality.

I worked in the cell phone industry. Every manufacturer that only carried five models is out of business. Even Apple had to expand its offerings because they were losing market share and putting themselves at risk.

Five models creates more monopoly power, not less. Things would get so much worse than they are now. We would need to change the entire market place demand structure in order to make 5 models a workable option.

And you don’t want people tuning cell phones. That’s a recipe for brand damage and goes against the idea that their devices are ready to use for an easy and seamless experience. The customers would revolt.

Again, not my preference, business reality.

Even 5 models per company would be bad for the survival of that company.

• You need a big button dumb phone for seniors.
• A basic smart phone for kids
• Dumb phone for people who don’t want smart phones. Or those prohibited by law from having a smart phone.
• Basic smart for low income.
• Premium smart for most

That’s five. No corporate friendly model, no alternative form factors for people that want to burn money (the most profitable phone), no mid range. Just extremes. Now if a competitor comes out with a new idea you have nothing to retain customers. Now you’re right for a hostile takeover over.

Jamie would never ask for help.

Out of scope for the budget.

Not me. I ate.

My two remaining onions were no bueno. This explicitly has garden ripe jalapenos in it. Chorizo/cilantro is money I don’t have.

Not that I know of. This is from a pouch. It’s literally the only name brand premium packaged ingredient I buy. The form factor makes life easier.

Tortilla in pan at medium low heat. Add your cheese and whatever other toppings. But another tortilla on top. Put a lid on it. Let it cook for 5 minutes. Flip it over. Cook for another 4 minutes.

Are you under the impression there is only one tortilla on that plate?

Thank you for spreading the word of shakshuka.

This was two day old bread. I never use fresh bread for French toast.

Here is the same loaf of bread the day before when it was 24 hours old.

Cook beans. Add some fat and seasoning. Mush them up over heat. They really aren’t fried or even twice fried, that’s just what we call them. The process is more like larding or confet than it is frying.

I’m not used to seeing Indian chicken dishes with whole breast of chicken. I like it but it seems weird to me. Usually they cut everything up.

Post this on Zillow.

I haven’t checked. I’m not licensed by the guild so I’m not limited by their rules.

As far as I know French toast is as French as French fries.

I was just posting what I was doing. It’s everyone else that built it.
