I personally like Mullvad, their practices, and their straightforward price of 5€/month. They’re not going to try to lure you in with discounts by subscribing for multiple months or years. Now if Mullvad has gone downhill, someone chime in.

Ubuntu 9.04. Jaunty Jackelope in 2009. Started by dual booting my Windows laptop. XP mainstream support ended that year, and I didn’t want to upgrade to Vista, nor could my laptop handle 7.

I was initially going to do a snarky TL;DW because of the click bait title, but instead the video impressed me. She first talks about the science behind microwaves and water molecules, and with that understanding she explains the benefit of microwaving certain things at 50% power.

I’m short cayenne to complete the Cajun spice mix. Top of my grocery list now.

I’ve got eggs, I’ve got pesto,

Maybe add some sun-dried tomatoes

Softest scrambled eggs I’ve ever made or eaten!

Thanks for the link, I’m going to try making soft scrambled eggs tomorrow.
