This is also the attitude taken by Ross Scott.

Does this typo make trying the meat cultural appropriation?

The dollar store near me recently did the same. Almost.

The self checkout machine is still physically there. Presumably all the internals are as well. It's just turned off and now, as you said, it takes three times longer to buy things.

It's worthwhile in my eyes. Most people to whom I mention it say "I couldn't work a ten hour day," which is a valid perspective, but also I'd rather lose two hours a day over one day a week.

I would prefer 4x8 though.

I work a four day workweek, but I also work 25% longer every workday than most people do.

I'm grateful for my extra day off, but I'm also tired every workday. And a lot of non workdays.

Dude! What does mine say?

Where's my car?

No, that's a different, well-known user.

But what temperature?!

FWIW, my reference was to H2G2 and the Heart of Gold.

If a highly improbable spaceship had to dedicate all of its processing power to making a cup of tea, I suppose I can forgive an end user for having to think about it.

Well, good on you for your progressive perspective and your willingness to express it.

I was going to comment that, a while ago, I saw someone on Lemmy make almost exactly this comment.

Now I wonder if the person I saw was you or, alternatively, whether you saw the same person.

He ... Is?

I'm extraordinarily bad at faces and sincerely can't tell whether you're mocking me, but this doesn't seem like his normal content... But I also don't watch him regularly.

The guy restraining the main guy looks like Michael Reeves.

alias fucking=sudo is what I was referring to in this case.

Ah, fair enough, I had missed the !! - thanks for drawing my attention to it!

Back in my day, this alias would be fucking.

Interestingly, the book series Old Man's War addresses this.

Thank you for the input!

Definitely the bun has a big impact. Since I moved to a rural area, I've been very disappointed with the buns offered with the local gas station hot dogs (not that I have high standards for that). The right bun, properly presented, would definitely enhance the experience. I would love to find a local baker who could provide that.

For some reason, without traveling a decent distance, no grocery store within a pretty decent traveling distance offers any of the big name dogs other than Oscar Meyer. I hadn't considered ordering online. At my nearest grocery store I did once find some kind of "German snapper" dog that came out very well, but I haven't been able to find it again since (despite repeatedly buying what I thought was the same brand).

As for cook, I've always preferred them made with a dry heat, such as with a grill. In fact, the aforementioned Hot Diggity Dog used a griddle to cook theirs. I used to use a convection oven, but my wife got me basically this, which has enhanced the experience for me.

I appreciate the recommendations and will look into the ones that fit my preferences - thank you!
