It's an incredible con job if you think about it.... by allenizabethin atheism

[–]LittleFoxy 1 point2 points ago

Not completely true, as the Commerzbank got quite a bad rep in Germany for systematically selling financial investments with extraordinarily long runtimes (30 years) to old people, the most famous case being a 91 year old lady.

Making a linux laptop grandparent proof? by clienthaxin linux

[–]LittleFoxy 1 point2 points ago

That's what I settled for after it happened the first time. Still more of a clunky workaround that renders still visible functionality dysfunct rather than a proper solution to the problem that it is too easy to accidentaly screw things up.

Yeah, because that's going to make things easier. I really dislike docks.

I always encountered one big problem with gnome 2 and not computer savy people. Often after I come to visit and check out computers I installed with a linux and gnome 2 I found the panel to be devastated. Right click -> Remove happens so easily, and fucks up the whole order of applets for the panel, and this will happen with people not skilled with the mouse. So actually, gnome 3 fallback and it's "Hold alt to change stuff" really came as a fantastic feature regarding this - so i would advise going for that, or try lxde if you need something lighter.

Better make some delicious consomme with it, for a southern twist in any dish.

LPT Request: How to keep shampoos, toothpastes and soap bottles safe from exploding in a suitcase by InTheOpinionOfin LifeProTips

Please, don't give the TSA justification for their methods by using words such as "exploding" together with harmless things like toothpaste :p

LPT Request: Internet router is one floor away, very weak signal, what do people do to improve signal? by Lemarain LifeProTips

[–]LittleFoxy 0 points1 point ago

Do just that, and in addition check the location of the router. Slight adjustments in the positioning of the device and it's antennas can make huge differences when you are at the edge of it's reach. Try to avoid having any dense objects in the way, and just moving a few centimeters can make a big difference if just that avoids a power or waterline in the wall. If the router has one of those movable antennas, try to position it so that it points perpendicular to the 'line of sight' to your client - This way you will be in the are where the antenna signal is the strongest. If the router has internal antenna(s), maybe look up a naked shot of it's innards to see the positioning of the winded antenna clips or SMD antennas, sometimes they have funky spread patterns, but the above rule usually applies as well - so turning it upright or having it angled against something in the right direction can give you the little gain you need.

TIL 95% of people in the UK who buy organic said their main reason was to avoid pesticides and had no idea organic farming can and does use pesticides. by opaque22in todayilearned

True, though it could be worth checking if there are versions with it inside in lower dillutions, like D6 or D12 (the existence of those btw is responsible for almost all the 'positive' studies, since they aren't dilluted enough to contain only water but still count as homeopathic).

Hey, dog shit is an official homeopathic remedy in use, excrementum caninum, look it up ;)

Quality Playtesters From Valve by LickMyAssholein gaming

[–]LittleFoxy 0 points1 point ago

It kinda is the point to get computer illiterate or people unfamiliar with games as playtesters. If you don't have a diverse playtester base you can often end up with strange products, especially regarding difficulty. Noone will notice that you made something impossible hard when only people who played the game already for 80+ hours and know it by sleep judge the difficulty of new content. That's actually something that is responsible for many impossible hard games, where pretty much only the developers tested the game.

Holy shit, I never before saw so many oversimplified wrong analogies to explain how national economics work strung together so hamhandedly in a propaganda piece.

It's an ad for a local optician, Top says "Fairytales come true" Oma -> Grandmother

Obviously the idea was that red riding hood needs some glasses to see through the perfect disguise ;)

Turn it upside down and give it a little circle movement so that a little water swirl can form, it will empty in seconds.

Beercan chicken by LittleFoxyin FoodPorn

[–]LittleFoxy[S] 2 points3 points ago

The method is quite foolproof. You prepare your chicken like you usually would, by coating it with the spice and seasoning mix of your choice, i would advise getting some of it or even fresh herbs under the skin and inside. In this case i used a mixture of oil, paprika, cayenne, honey, salt and pepper. Then widen chicken some so the can fits, pour off or drink off about half of it (you might want to add a few of your herbs and spices to the beer too for extra flavor) before sodomizing the chicken with it. Then it goes into the oven at ~200C (~390F) for about 50 minutes, or until your desired crispyness has been acchieved. It is a good idea to save a little of your marinade and reapply it every now and then. It als works quite well when you have a large enough grill that you can cover and cock indirectly with.

Ha, the idea behind this way of making it is that the half full beer steams it from the inside, while the can also acts as a stand to have it crispy on all sides.

I found Mediterraneannight to be a somewhat pleasing replacement for the awesome zukitwo during the 3.4 testing times.
