😃 Javier I made Thai chicken yesterday and came out superb. I had to go to the Asian market to find Woodear mushrooms and fish sauce.

🦄 Chip Uni Hey, subreply folk -- what resources do you use most to keep up with coronavirus information?
Chris Space youtube.com/watch?... for the pure numbers. Everything else is pretty basic, copy what asians do when they're sick or it's flu season. Wear a mask, support your immune system with exercise, healthy eating and supplements that are appropriate for you.

Martijn Quinoa pasta with hot-smoked salmon, baby spinach, thyme, an a bit of yoghurt to give it all some body. Probably some random other herbs and spices that I forgot about. Which makes it about 3+ ingredients more than go in my average dinners.
Dorcas Starting with pasta e? Here I am being asian searching for some rice meal.

🏴‍☠️ Serge Keller That awkward moment when Apple mocked good hardware and poor people techinasia.com/awk...
Mark Dain Ouch. This was some marketing gone very badly. Although in the last few years Apple products have gotten less user serviceable. Even the new Mac Mini now has RAM soldered to the motherboard! I'm typing this on a Late 2012 Mac Mini which originally came with 8 GB of RAM but I upgraded to 16. The old non-retina MacBook Pro (still available) has some user serviceable parts but the Retina models are more locked down. This is the really sad thing; Apple can, and used to, do better than this. It makes me wonder if they want you to upgrade once a year? That works for phones but not tablets and definitely not laptops/desktops.
Nkrs I don't see anything wrong with using an older computer. Sure, newer software often expects newer hardware and things might go slower than usual, but I don't think that warrants a full computer upgrade every year (and if you ask me, software developers are to blame). I'm personally using a 7 year old desktop; I've changed the motherboard and added more RAM, but that's it. I do have a newer laptop, but it's much nicer to type on a mechanical keyboard and look at a 24" screen. Perhaps it's all rooted in culture - where I am from things are often used and fixed rather than discarded.
John Olinda bbaebbaero Day here in Korea is like Valentine's Day in America, except even more blatently a corporate marketing stunt.
Martijn And here I thought Valentine's Day in Asia was all about self-made chocolates and confessing love. Guess I shouldn't believe all I read in the mangas.

Eric Material Design is really nice on the Nexus 5, I'll take back my blanket statement of disliking it completely. I'm still uncertain about having it on the desktop interface though.
Mark Dain It always looks great until I notice the Floating Action Button. Someone wrote a great post that summarises how I feel quite well: medium.com/tech-in...

Eric theguardian.com/sc... Article on anxiety in mundane situations, may be of interest to you considering your latest posts.
Martijn Cool read! Don't worry though, I don't suffer from anxiety attacks. A couple of phobias, a healthy dose of paranoia, I admit to it all. My thoughts about suicide are all limited to euthanasia, Drion's pill, and simply how to stay in control of dying... in about 60 years time.

Eric This time of year the 'teenage' Eurasian Magpies are gathering small gangs. Expect a lot more chattering.
