  • The corn is the kernel and the "cob" of any grain. Perhaps you've heard of "barleycorn". But there's also wheat corns, oat corns, etc.

    And this is why we colloquially call maize "corn". Because compared to other types of grains, it's corn is very large.

    To use a older construction maize is "the corn of corns". Meaning the biggest and best.

  • Simple Arch :)

  • CUPS is not driver software.

    It's a "printing system" that provides a web interface for configuration some of that configuration may require a vendor supplied config file.

    "IPP Everywhere" (Internet Printing Protocol) is a print server (ie "sharing") software serving the IPP communication protocol.

    So the chain goes:

    Hardware -> Firmware (if any)-> Driver-> Printing System -> Print sharing

  • I use benzoyl peroxide facewash in my pits when I shower. I never smell like BO or anything else.

    Those brightly colored tubes of marketing they sell in the deodorant aisle probably don't do what you think they do. This is because the mega conglomerates that sell this shit don't care if their product works or not. What they sell you on is shame and poor body image.

  • Remember when the pre-grated Parm cheese came in the paper cylinder with a paper top with a metal spout? Like salt still is sometimes?

    Remember when coffee beans came in paper bags and things like Oreos or keebler cookies came in corrogated paper sleeves with printed paper overwraps? Remember bread in paper bags? Why does gum now come in blow-molded cups?

    You can't even find rolls of wax paper anymore! It's not the .1 mil wrap on ground meat that's the real problem.

    Taxes and regulations on the petrochemical companies are at all time lows and that lets the rest of these grocery companies get greedy and penny pinch their way to stockholder satisfaction and quarterly bonuses.

    You can complain about consumer-end plastic all you want but it won't stop until you cut it off at the source. When you hear, "Drill baby drill!" they're not doing it for just your car (which incedently is also a huge source of plastic waste.) Hydrocarbon conglomerates are the source of all this nonsense.

    But what are you going to do? 1. Be nice to your neighbors and Walk or ride your bike or 2. persecute minorities and immigrants and buy huge new SUVs every other year like the Tv tells you to?
