I get the joke in the title, but not the one in the image. Is "cat sank" a homophone with something in French?
Don't fall for it, it's a classic blunder! Promoting to king makes it twice as easy to get checkmated! Article 1, section 2 of the FIDE Laws of Chess, states:
The objective of each player is to place the opponent’s king ‘under attack’ in such a way that the opponent has no legal move. The player who achieves this goal is said to have ‘checkmated’ the opponent’s king and to have won the game.
Note that it specifies "king" and not "kings" - the opponent only has to checkmate one of them to win!
I'd say most of them are protestants, but there's been a trend of a certain type of far-right "RETVRN TO TRADITION" wingnuts converting and becoming hardline tradcaths in the last decade or so. Those people absolutely would seethe over a black pope.
Wait, do digital cameras not do the red eye effect? Now that I think about it, I don't think I've seen a photo with red eye in it in a long time, but I had always assumed that was a consequence of the camera flash, not the film...
Edit: TIL that camera redeye does come from the flash, but it hasn't been much of a thing these days because today's phones/cameras adjust the flash timing to compensate. Thanks for the replies!
It's important to remember that Jones is a grifter first and foremost. He has never sincerely cared about anything in his life beyond his own enrichment, and I don't think this is a sign of him starting now. That said, I think it may still be significant that even hardcore grifters like Jones and Fuentes are starting to publicly speak against Trump. Grifters are always going to follow the money, so if Trump's ship is sinking so fast that even Alex Jones sees it to be more profitable to start to move away from him, maybe the MAGA cult of personality really is starting to finally fall apart...
Granted, that's all speculation, and Trump has managed to defy every previous prediction of the fall of his influence, so I don't want to jump to any conclusions here, but after the Canadian elections, I feel like I have a bit more reason to afford myself a little optimism for the future...
You didn't happen to set an allowed area for your colonists that excludes the trap zone, did you? They can't go retrieve the kill if they aren't allowed in that area.
Other than that, I'd check to make sure that the butcher bill allows for the specific type of creature that was killed by the trap. Edit: they were both raccoons, this probably isn't it
If it's neither of those, then I don't know.
Edit: Hang on, if they were manhunting animals, they probably had scaria, and there's a 50/50 chance or so that creatures with scaria will have their body instantly considered rotten upon death. Check the second body and see if it says it's rotten. Colonists won't butcher spoiled corpses.
I think "mandatory physical versions" kinda misses the point of the issue, tbh. It's bad digital rights laws that are the cause of the problems that you've mentioned, not a lack of physical media. DRM has been around a lot longer than digital downloads of games, and shutting down a game's online services affects purchasers of physical disks just as much as digital downloaders.
Besides, mass-producing physical media is expensive, and I'd rather not give publishers another excuse to make games even more expensive than they already are.
I've only got a couple of Sbubbies left from my Reddit backups, but I haven't had the time to make any new ones...
I've been making these sourdough bagels for a couple of years now, and they are just incredible. The sourdough tang plays great with the everything seasoning, and it absolutely blows away anything I've had from a grocery store or deli. This recipe is adapted from a Reddit post by a u/978nobody, but I've made enough changes to it by this point that it's kinda my own thing.
Ingredients:
- 200g active starter
- 750g bread flour
- 360g water
- 15g honey
- 10g salt (go to 15g if not mixing the everything seasoning into the dough)
- Optional: ~2 tbsp everything bagel seasoning, adjust to preference, plus more for topping. Other mixins/toppings can probably be used as desired.
- ~1tbsp baking soda
- Spoonful of malted barley syrup, can also use brown sugar or molasses
- Optional: One beaten egg or egg yolk for brushing
Add starter, water, honey and salt to a large bowl and mix to combine, then add the flour and everything seasoning. Stir with a large wooden spoon until a shaggy ball of dough forms. Cover with a damp towel and let autolyze for 30 minutes, then, to quote the original recipe, "knead like crazy until your arms are tired." I've found it's pretty difficult to get this dough to fully pass the windowpane test, so I just knead until I can stretch it pretty thin.
Once kneaded, cover the bowl with a damp towel again and bulk proof until 1.5x size. I highly recommend setting a bit of dough aside in a small covered jar as an aliquot to track the rise. This usually takes me at least 6-8 hours, which I've read is because adding mix-ins to sourdough makes it take longer to proof, but it's worth the wait. If the weather is cold, I usually put it in the oven with the light turned on to make sure it's in a mildly warm environment.
Once proofed, split the dough into 8 roughly equal pieces, and shape into bagels. Place onto a baking sheet lined with parchment or greased foil, cover the whole thing with a wet towel, and put it in the fridge to cold ferment overnight.
In the morning, preheat your oven to 425 F (220 C), and set a large pot of water on the stove to boil. While it heats, stir the baking soda and malted barley syrup into the water. Once boiling, add the bagels 2-3 at a time depending on the size of your pot, and boil for 1 minute and 30 seconds, flipping them over halfway through. Return the boiled bagels to the baking sheet.
Once boiled, brush the tops with the egg wash and sprinkle with a generous amount of everything seasoning if desired, then bake until golden brown, 20-25 minutes. Let cool for at least 15 minutes if you want to eat some fresh (and who wouldn't?), but otherwise, let cool completely before storing.
Other notes:
- The baking soda/barley syrup solution has a tendency to foam up and boil over if it gets too hot, so make sure not to leave it unattended. The cold bagels tend to keep the temp manageable, but be ready to remove the pot from the heat for a bit if things start to foam up.
- When reheating, they're great toasted, but I've found they are remarkably resistant to browning, so don't expect much color. I can max out my toaster and maybe get a slight tinge of brown.
- They keep pretty well in the fridge if you want them to last longer. I put them in gallon bags with a bit of paper towel to try and absorb excess moisture. If you fridge them, I recommend slicing them in half first, as they can be pretty tough to cut through once they're cold.
Hope yall enjoy the pics! If anyone else decides to make these, be sure to let me know how they turned out!
