These are two different things, and it’s usually worded as such:

Expiration Date: we cannot guarantee that eating food after this date will not cause sickness. Eat at your won risk, and we are not responsible if you get sick.

Best By Date: basically means nothing. We think it tastes better before this date but there are no actual health implications after this date.

Fuck “Best By” dates. I’ll decide if it tastes good or not, and if I don’t like it, I’ll throw it out. As long as there are no actual health implications. You usually only find expiration dates on dairy meat, and sometimes bread.

Hoo boy. If you think consoles are getting too expensive, it might not be the best time to consider PC gaming.

Well they ain’t gonna brick my SreamDeck, so I say go for it Nintendo.

Not that I think this is acceptable behavior, but I’m okay with them pushing people away from their systems into using alternatives.

This is a self-own.

They never should have shot that gorilla.

And in the corporate Windows world, it’s the Company Portal (essentially the inter-company App Store). I always have to type it out because I don’t like telling people to go to the CP.

If you really want to rustle their jimmies, remind them that tomatoes came from South America, and weren’t introduced until westward exploration.

Reminds me of something I read once. If you want to get out of work. Like you’re at work, and you really really don’t want to be there. You can get out with 4 words. You swallow your pride, walk into your bosses office, and proclaim “I shit my pants”

You will have the rest of the day off.

Really depends on what I am doing. Whatever I was previously doing has been been put on an indefinite pause until I can get new clothes and probably take a shower. But I have kids, so the day must go on.

I used to be really good at video games, but now I just don’t have the time. I remember being able to jump in any CS lobby and jump to the top of the server. I got kicked for supposedly cheating all the time. That was always a good feeling. Knowing that I’m kicking so much ass that people assume I must be cheating.

My crowning achievement is beating Super Ghouls and Ghosts - both times through (second time with the farie bracelet). This was using an original SNES, no save states or anything. Dedicated an entire summer of my teenage life to it. Game is hard, man.

Computers used to be a hobby but I turned that into a career. I’m a principal systems engineer and I like to think I’m good at what I do.

I got really into cooking, and it was maybe a hobby at some point, but now with a family it’s more of a necessity. A lot of the things I learned while cooking as a hobby turned into skills though. I’m not sure how to explain it, but like having cooking intuition. Knowing when to add more or less of something just by knowing. Also just being able to freestyle meals out of what is laying around or knowing what can be substituted with what or how to make ingredients out of other ingredients.

My thoughts exactly. If we could make solar panels more effective and cheaper in addition to having a way to store and quickly discharge that energy safely, we could power houses, cars, etc all without emission. Would love it if the batteries didn’t have short lives as well.

Theres some cool solid state battery tech on the horizon, but it always seems to be on the horizon and never actually showing up.
