I'm glad this is becoming a thing, I'm tired of my only options in the US being soda, alcohol, or coffee. Other options like tea and fruit juices are always overlooked or way too sweetened if they are available

A lot of newer Canon printers claim they require apps, internet, and even social media accounts on their store pages; did you run into any of that with your printer?
I've kept my little logitech mouse around for a while too. I first got it in 2007, and I've been through 3 PCs, gone from Windows XP to 7 to 10 to LMDE to Fedora, and she's still going strong today
Chile powder and curry powder are also worth it to make from scratch if you have the time. Both are miles better than pre-mixed/store bought, and you have much more control over the flavors you want. Fresh curry powder really is a magic ingredient if you cook anything South or Southeast Asian.

There is the Doctor Who episode "Mummy on the Orient Express" which is imo one of Peter Capaldi's best episodes
Mac n cheese is definitely all about texture. Some enjoy it saucy and smooth, others like it more on the cheesy and firmer side. I'd encourage you to try a firmer style to see if you like it better. I also like to add breadcrumbs and bacon to mine for even more depth of texture.
The key to a good mac n cheese is starting with a solid bechamel (with a good fat/flour/milk ratio), and then using both a soft and hard cheese; one for melty texture and the other for flavor. My favorite combo is monterey jack and asiago for white mac n cheese. Mozzarella and cheddar are also common soft cheeses, and parmesan & pecorino are good hard cheeses.
Also acid is probably not the best route with something so cheese and butter heavy. Spice compliments it more if you want piquancy, I like to add chipotles in adobo. Jalapeno and bell pepper are also good aditions to the same end
My favorite series "The Chronicles of the Imaginarium Geographica" is both written and illustrated by James Owen, who is super talented at both. The whole series has amazing art, especially for the covers

Lol the funniest part is I have a dual Bachelor's in CS and Graphic Design, and can spell technophobic correctly
You couldn't pay me to use Adobe. The predatory pricing, required internet, Linux incompatability, file scanning, Adobe Bridge, bad privacy policy, bloated install, useless launcher, DRM, and use of AI offends me.
These are my go-tos:
Better Jarred Spaghetti:
Cook up some ground pork and add, cayenne, paprika, pepper flakes, and cavenders greek seasoning. Deglaze with any alcohol or stock on hand and melt in butter. Add and simmer tomato sauce of choice for a bit with the pork to bring it together. Finish with sugar to balance acidity. Bonus if you have any herbs or cheese for garnish.
Garlic Chili Crisp Ramen:
On top of 1 beef and 1 chicken instant ramen (cooked and drained) place scallions, ginger, garlic, chili crisp, and a tiny bit of any vinegar (black vinegar is best). Pour hot oil (any kind) over the top then mix. Bonus with any leftover meats or veggies you can use. Extra bonus if you have sesame oil or seesame seeds to garnish.
Black Bean Nachos:
Tortilla chips, shredded cheese, hot sauce of choice, goya sazon seasoning, black beans. Bonus if you have any extra veg like white onion, jalapeno, or tomatoes.
