I was prepared the same way with the “but that’s how I’ve always done it...” response... but then I see they’re saying to use the fork BEFORE toasting it.  I always toasted them in the (toaster) oven and split them after heating.  I’ll have to try splitting before heating.

None. The answer is none. There is no reason what-so-ever to install an entire program for what could easily be a webpage.

You are correct. Steel, by definition, is an iron or iron-majority alloy doped with carbon. No carbon in the alloy means it is not steel. This article is about reducing the reliance on fossil fuels to run the coke ovens (the smelters that infuse the iron/alloy with carbon). Coke ovens require a LOT of energy, so this…

Things I learned since I started running at the start of the pandemic:

Follow-up question: How do I get babies (and children in general... and cats) to not like me and leave me the eff alone?

It’s an injection attack. “%s” is the escape code in most languages for “insert the next variable here”. In this case, I bet that there is no variable (because why would there be?) so it raises an error that is unhandled. The unhandled error prevents the network code from continuing to execute, effectively disabling…

Unfortunately, I’m 6'4", so my only options for pronouns are FeeFie/FoeFum.

Did you consolidate your loans at some point? That’s what did me in.
