I remember this from a high school science class. There was a girl in my class who was absolutely disgusted and mortified with the idea that grasshopper parts could be in bread. Maybe I'm wrong, but I reckon there's probably a difference between cooked prepackaged foods and fresh raw foods.

The idea of bug parts in food doesn't bother me much. Just a little protein. When I was a teenager during harvest, I'd climb on the trucks and stick a handful of wheat germ in my mouth when we were finished harvesting a field. I love the flavor and texture of wheat germ. Naturally, my favorite breakfast cereal is bran flakes.

Side note: if you do this, make sure they're golden brown, not pink. The pink ones are covered in poison.

The journey to the center is pretty intense. She loses her wings on the way in and dies after laying her eggs.

iirc, the figs sold commercially were selectively bred to self pollinate. I think the FDA or USDA would have a major problem with dead animals in fruit, even if they're supposed to be there naturally.

Don't start shit you can't finish, spider.

Far as I know, they still make sewing machines; they just don't sell them in the States.

Lamborghini started out making tractors.

My parents had a Mitsubishi television about 15 years ago.

Coleco started life as the Connecticut Leather Company.

And it'll never fail to amuse me how Michelin tells you where to find the best restaurants on the planet.

Hell yeah! I've had mine since last summer. I had a 4 speed auto in high school and college, and I always told myself that if I could do it again, I'd get it with a stick so that's what I managed.

What gen Miata? I've been wanting to drive an NB for a long time, but I can only realistically afford to have one 20+ year old car at a time lol

I love my Prelude. I paid $2,700 for it. I could sink another $10k into it and I'd have a perfectly good Prelude worth $6,000.

One of these days when I can stand to be out 10 grand, I'll fix it up. For now, I'm just enjoying it as it is. It looks like butt, but it runs good.

I've seen too many videos of people launching Wiimotes because they weren't wearing the strap. The Wii was around right as CRT was on its way out so I wonder how many LCD and plasma panels died this way.

Just a carryover. You reference communities here with an exclamation point. For instance:

!atheistmemes or !linux@lemmy.ml

Gotta swing 'er wide left then hard right for a turn on those tight city blocks.

I hate to be the good time ruiner, but unlike -40, it's not on the nose.

Still, really cool that it's as close a conversion as it is.

This was more of a one-off. My wife wanted the projector for other projects, but she was testing it out here. We usually throw these vids up on the TV, which is just out of reach for the both of them. But the TV is only 65". The projection was probably close to 12' diagonally.

Anyway, to answer your question directly, none.

Still rocking my Nintendo Wii! I mostly play GameCube games on it, but I do have Brawl, Mario Kart, Skyward Sword, and Galaxy 1 & 2. For GameCube, I have Sunshine, Wind Waker, Twilight Princess, NFS Underground 1 & 2, Double Dash, Thousand Year Door, Melee, Luigi's Mansion, Animal Crossing, and Burnout.

It's also got Homebrew so I play SNES on it too. Been running Earthbound lately. I loved Undertale, but all this time, I've never played Earthbound, despite knowing about it for the last 20 years. I even snagged NES Monopoly, which is the only way I could get my wife to play Monopoly with me lol

Anyway, I needed batteries for my keyboard and it takes some 8 hours to charge them (good old nickel batteries, hey?) so I robbed the batteries out of my Wiimote. I need to put them back already.

What's a good wee without a little target practice?

I've done this with my dinner table several times.

Lmao I was the bassist in our jam sessions, but I also play trumpet so that did spice things up a bit.

I'm gonna hayuk you up.

In fairness, I had a college buddy who learned to play real drums by playing a lot of Rock Band. He was no Joey Jordison, but he wasn't half bad.

Can someone explain the joke, please? I'm at a loss.

It must be the VPN. Just about every site I visit is worse now. Several times I've visited a sites and just been outright denied entry if I don't turn my VPN off. And I Alt + Left the fuck out of them.

I saw them in concert in Seattle a few weeks ago!

The Linda Lindas opened and they rocked. I wasn't even aware of Rancid and their impact on the punk rock scene so now I'm digging through their discography. Then the Smashing Pumpkins played. They played Tarantula but not Geek USA or Mayonaise for some reason. But they did play a lot of the hits. Tonight, Tonight, 1979, Disarm, Jellybelly, Zero, Bullet, Today, etc. Lots of songs that got me through trying times. Great show. Then Green Day came out and played the entirety of Dookie and American Idiot. I've listened through both more times than I care to count. In total, we were at T-Mobile Park for like six hours. It was fucking awesome.

Except for the fact that they wheeled Billie out on a California king and he snored the whole time.
