Most modern fridges have a humidity control on the crisper/veggie drawer. That most likely accounts for the disparity. There also regional humidity to consider. Living in a dryer climate, your carrots may dry out faster than those in a humid climate.

no one just throws a loaf in the fridge.

This is literally what I do.

Non-stabilized or homemade peanut butter is a different matter. The name brand stuff though, much better at room temp.

My condolences from a fellow fridged peanut butter sufferer.

Baking soda my friend. Stick a box in your fridge and little suck up all those extra flavors and scents. Arm & Hammer even makes one with a mesh front to expose more of the powder to the air.

Just don't use that baking soda for anything else.

Nearly all American sliced white bread is basically flavorless because of the huge amount of dough conditioners they use, so it really doesn't matter if if goes stale in the fridge as long as it lasts through the end of the week and I can have my sandwiches sans mold.

Just drop a quarter slice of apple or a damp paper towel in the container with it and it'll rehydrate no problem.

Well this is the funny thing that has occurred in the last 24 hours. I have been playing about with basic Ubuntu and I installed Wine on it. But when I tried to come up with a Microsoft dependent application to test it out on I came to the realization that there are no applications that I use that are exclusive to Microsoft. Nearly everything I use is either web-based or has a Linux port.

Hell, even MS Office is web based nowadays. I think Windows truly has become obsolete, or at least out moded. That is for casual desktop users such as myself. There may be enterprise programs out there that still rely on Windows architecture.

Edit: P.S. the Ubuntu was really just a test for the machine I will be working with. I think I'm likely gonna stick Mint on it and give that a try after a new hard drive arrives for it later this week.

This is one of many comments I've seen on several posts that have recommended Mint. I'm currently playing around with Ubuntu, just because it's the one I'm most familiar with from back in the day, but since the drive I'm using is temporary I might do a wipe and then load Mint and see how that operates.

Yeah she should have ignored the fucking Republicans and just leaned straight into it. She would have looked sharp as fucking knives compared to Trump's dull-witted lunacy talk.

If you're hesitant to fully commit at first, I also recommend dual booting with Windows. Over time you'll use it less and less until one day you feel like reclaiming the disk space.

I have a 10 year old laptop that I had to get rid of the hard drive for and am installing an nand drive and want to use to re-familiarize myself with Linux on it. Especially since my main desktops are too old to upgrade to Windows 11(not that I'd want to anyway) and I figure going Linux now will save me from scrambling when the pooch gets thoroughly screwed after Win 10 updates end.

This is probably a good place to ask, but when ditching windows for Linux, what's a good distro to go with? Preferably one that has a good WINE interface.

She had completely hijacked the entire democratic party and pulled an assload of shady shit while she was running in order to stay on top. And then she goes into the debates with Trump and acts like she's some insipid Susie fucking homemaker. She even had one of her idiots feed her questions beforehand and managed to still fuck it up.

Her big mistake IMO is in not being her bitch ass self and wrecking that fat pompous dipshit on the debate stage. I was excruciatingly disappointed when I watched those and didn't see the dragon lady of America eating his ass for breakfast. So yeah, she lost that shit all by her self by not being herself.

I am and I am, and it's a trick question because the movie is the entire album which is a rock opera.

This seems too nuanced for a simple Google search. Can you please explain. Any links would be appreciated.

"labour shortage"

When adults are sick and tired of being paid peanuts to work a back breaking 40 to 50 hour job.

Corporations: So why not look to children who are too inexperienced to understand how much their labour is really worth...?

Ask them if they think that the movie "The Wall" is a good representation of the song.

I think this is what Morgan Freeman meant when he said he had a problem with Black History Month. Having a celebration of all that you are as a people is great, especially for barely recognized minorities, but we need to acknowledge that those minorities still exist and should still be celebrated even after the official festivities are over with.

Because entrenched Democrats are under a ridiculous belief that everyone who isn't voting for them is conservative. So if you spout "extreme" leftist ideals, you're too scary to the people they are courting, which is conservative voters who aren't Trumplicans.

LoL, no with stock splitting you get the same value only with more stocks that can go up in value eventually. This is worse cause the same amount of work*(arguably more considering how many server farms are out there mining the same coin now as opposed to back when it started)* for half the value. So, in a very real sense it does actually halve the value. And that's not even looking at the fact that crypto currency has no inherited value. It's not backed by anything but the investment of interest by crypto bros and shady groups looking to hide transactions and assets.
