Crab is more of a lifestyle than a species. We all get there eventually.

The only thing that keeps me going, thb, a little narrow path that we will be crab.

Tuba crabs come pre-turned to Sea Major.

Are we sure about that?

I've seen what can be done with some probes and a salmon...

[–] [email protected] 4 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

I'd like to see you try...

If I had a pair of microcontrollers and an electric keyboard, I'd be totally down. No fucking clue what I'm doing, but it shouldn't be that hard, right?

That’s what my GF said about making sashimi.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

I think learning Python might be easier.

Sashimi is damned hard.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 3 weeks ago* (last edited 3 weeks ago) (1 children)

Wait…. There’s a coding language called shashimi?

Python definitely is my go to on these things- you’d be surprised what you can do with a pi pico or a feather.

As for the shashimi, shredded shashimi is a thing that exists. It probably shouldn’t, but it does.

Edit: though sashimi tacos doesn’t sound any where near as bad as most “seafood tacos”….

[–] [email protected] 1 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

At this point, I wouldn't be surprised, but I just meant making a decent sashimi dish. Every time I've looked in that direction, I'm impressed at how casual they make it look.

Oh yeah. Those guys have serious skill.

Neither of us are slouches when it comes to knife skills, let’s just say it tasted amazing and we don’t really need pictures of every thing, do we?

[–] [email protected] 2 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

Hey, so long as it tasted good, the important part got done. I'd be afraid to let a professional chef see some of the slop I've plated before, but it was good.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 3 weeks ago

I think it'd be very interesting for people like Gordon Ramsey to talk about some of their more memorable "misses". We all have them. my ex managed to burn PB&J's on multiple occasions, so I feel like that takes the cake... but.... it's still more interesting to talk about those than the perfect ones.

(the first time, I had been seasoning my cast iron. she hadn't realized it was hot when she put the PB&J on it while getting some milk. The second time she got distracted by something and it was in the pan too long. my current partner... we both love to cook and cooking together is actually a pleasure rather than a stress-fueled nightmare.)

I read the fifth book and still don’t feel like I understand any of it.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

I first read it when I was like 15, tapped out in book 3.

Read it again as an adult, enjoyed it immensely, still missed a great deal of what was happening.

Third time I started to really start to plug into what Gene was laying down.

I've read it maybe 6 times now and I pick up new details and meanings every time.

Obviously that's a whole lot if you don't find value in the journey itself, and it's not like I'm recommending it or anything haha. I always tell people to start with his short stories. The Island Of Doctor Death And Other Stories is a great one.

Have you read the Long Sun ones that always somehow turn into people walking around dark tunnels for chapters on end? A lot less cryptic, apart from it feeling like everything of significance is happening offpage.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 3 weeks ago

Absolutely, I consider it all one series and read them all together. Silk for caldé!
