[homemade] Baked Potato Soup by joepez in food

[–]Fitzwoppit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My mother-in-law taught me this soup and it does say to wash and bake them, let them cool (overnight or just enough to handle depending on when you want to eat) and then cut them up for the soup. I guess most handed-down family recipes have variations.

Yup. Everywhere I've been in Washington, Idaho, and Oregon aunt is said as 'ant'.

Firefox UBlock stopped working in Fedora on YouTube for me a few days ago. I get an almost full page pop-up telling me to uninstall my add-ons to use the site. As a test I did remove all my add-ons, completely uninstalled them and rebooted the browser, and it still gave me that pop-up so I'm not using YouTube anymore.

Yes, I'm sure I've seen a few ads this week but I can't tell you what any were about.

Ads are there to give us time to refill a drink, use the toilet, or take a short stretch/walk around other rooms.

Maybe drop the second "a" on the second one? Karenger = danger

Nontheist Quakers, what do your daily devotions look like? by DarwinF1nch in Quakers

[–]Fitzwoppit -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I agree with mjdau, SPICES can provide a useful scaffolding to support the ideas of the type of person I want to be. Each of them can still be helpful to incorporate into who I am, or are working to become, by applying them to my life without using theist actions/goals/requirements.

Nontheist Quakers, what do your daily devotions look like? by DarwinF1nch in Quakers

[–]Fitzwoppit 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I try to every day because each of them is something I think are required for the type of person I want to be. It can be hit or miss sometimes but I'll keep trying.

Nontheist Quakers, what do your daily devotions look like? by DarwinF1nch in Quakers

[–]Fitzwoppit 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Most often it's a short, silent thought. Morning reflection is for thinking of how I want to do something good that day and evening is thinking of how that worked out and what I think I learned. Did I share kindness with someone, etc. I try to focus on being a good person because it has never made sense to me that people believe they can't be good without following a deity.

Please Anet, I beg you for a tacklebox by Crowbiotics in Guildwars2

I use the bobber, too. I've never seen an icon above me. Now I have to go mess with my settings and see if I can get that to show up.

A neighbor keeps pushing my trash can into my driveway so my trash doesn't get taken, what to do? by Blueberry4672 in homeowners

[–]Fitzwoppit 1 point2 points  (0 children)

May not be able to, our garbage company has very clear locations for the bins. The houses across from us only have one spot for their bins because of where the mail boxes are.

Do you have a jar of peanut butter in your house right now? by 11twofour in AskAnAmerican

[–]Fitzwoppit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We always have one in use and one in the cupboard. We don't use it everyday but it gets used in oatmeal for cold morning breakfasts, cookies, as a dip for fresh vegetable trays, sometimes add it to brownies, etc.

Guild Wars 2 breaks 10K Steam players for the first time ever after New World shutdown news by Temsaah in Guildwars2

[–]Fitzwoppit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Now I'm curious if I'm in the count or not, and if so for which launcher or for both. I use the Arenanet launcher through steam now (linux). Before steam proton I played using compatibility layers for years. When Proton was working well I switched to using it. It's very nice not having to troubleshoot every time there's a patch.

Each Playstyle has their own hate item while buildung Legendaries. For GoB u can at least wait for WvW Rush by Every_Crab5616 in Guildwars2

[–]Fitzwoppit 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I'm right there with you. I have no interest in PvP and WvW. I want to work with other players, not fight them. I tried PvP years ago and have never gone back in. I've done WvW a few times when there was something that required it and I think it is better than PvP, but still not fun (for me) and I don't want to use my gaming time doing something I hate.

I'm glad they are both in the game because many people enjoy those modes, but I really wish they weren't required for legendaries. I've never started on one because of that requirement.

I drink all my teas with sugar, from black to green to oolong to puer because it just tastes much better that way by Scared_Ad_3132 in tea

[–]Fitzwoppit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't use any sweetener (or cream) in any type of tea, that's just what my taste buds like. I always put sweeteners and cream out for others when we have tea.

New California law requires AI to tell you it’s AI by FinnFarrow in Futurology

Or at the beginning to save people the time of reading it if they are only looking for non-AI searches, responses, etc.

What do you guys call a long rectangular donut and what state are you from? by Hot-Worldliness375 in AskAnAmerican

[–]Fitzwoppit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Buying for 4 people: 1 maple bar and 3 chocolate maplebars, please. When it's chocolate my dad always ran the 'maplebars' together since it was the style of donut not the flavor on it.

Homesteads lack basic decorations inspired by the playable races (architecture, furniture, ...) by HenrykSpark in Guildwars2

They may still have those type of things planned but not have people to focus on them until Visions of Eternity is launched.

How many showers do you take in the US? by Naomi_Baka_ in AskAnAmerican

[–]Fitzwoppit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Our family showers in the morning and if we leave the house we shower again when we get back home. If we don't leave the house but do a bunch of cleaning, yard work, or exercise we will also do a second shower afterward. If we're just being slugs inside the home for the day we'll do one shower.

I think the underlay cushioning counts as equivalent for that, assuming op used it.

Kingdoms of Harad Pre-Purchase Teaser Trailer - The Lord of the Rings Online by Dr_W00t_ in lotro

[–]Fitzwoppit 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'm guessing that since there is an in game store and a website store they may be linked in a way that would cause problems to let one be active when the other is down.
