If a robot is seen doing things, it doesn't mean he is actively thinking before doing .
Same applies to human, its just machine built by nature, no one is actively deciding or understanding what he's doing, what he should not do. This was what was preached by the ancient vedantic texts, explained by best of monks like gautum budhdh,

Lao Tzu : only those who don't percieve themselves as people have understood this ultimate truth, because if you consider yourself as people/person, you have confined yourself, and cant understand this sacred truth.

Potato Salad with Eggplant - Asia Style

This is interesting as it is taken from a book that's only discussing Potato Salad, of course. The title is Ein Tag ohne Kartoffelsalat ist kulinarisch betrachtet ein verlorener Tag by Martina and Moritz. Basically it means you can have so many varieties, including Japanese, of it that a day without potato salad is a day lost.

@Para-Noid naver to late i pop in here now and then to read what browser ppl like i hope to keep this up for a long time 🙂

@greybeard
Hello,
I have just seen,
congratulations on 1,000 👍

👏 👏 👏

@WildEnte R-Type was great, I sucked at it though 😂
Could only actually finish the game on MAME with endless credits 🙂

I played a lot of Project X on the Amiga though, it was also really good (and on the Amiga you had trainers 😉 )

I just finished book #6 in Colleen McCullough's Masters of Rome series:

What a talented woman!!!

It is a novelized history of the last years of the Republic, with an in-depth knowledge of Marius, Sulla, Pompey Magnus, Caesar, Cato, Cicero, Marco Antonius and their wives. And of course Cleopatra.

Serie:

The First Man in Rome (Masters of Rome, #1)

The Grass Crown (Masters of Rome, #2)

Fortune's Favorites (Masters of Rome, #3)

Caesar's Women (Masters of Rome, #4)

Caesar (Masters of Rome, #5)

The October Horse (Masters of Rome #6)

Antony and Cleopatra (Masters of Rome, #7)

As a user of the Spanish blog (https://www.hislibris.com) of historical books used to say:

"I know three kinds of fans of historical novels: those who almost revere Colleen McCullough, those who detest her, and those who have yet to meet her. For the first ones, the reading of "The First Man of Rome" was possibly a real find, a happy encounter that pushed them to read inexorably (as if some hidden spring had sprung when they started reading it), the no less than 5,000 pages that make up one of the most famous and commented series of "Roman novels". The second ones were probably shipwrecked among dozens of characters, dizzying changes of scenery, constant explanatory digressions and a seemingly endless string of historical events. And the third ones... have most likely been living on some distant planet for the last few years."

@edwardp said in I'm currently sitting on the terrace, by candlelight, enjoying my highly appreciated Vivaldi. It's been a long time since I've been here.:

Do birds fly south for the winter anymore? For at least the past few winters, birds have been around here, all year. 🤔

There are still a lot of migratory birds.
But some of them no longer fly to their traditional, often very old places due to the man-made climate crisis.
This very often causes major problems for the animals.

Day is going OK.

@shifte I don't have a girlfriend, and slapping is not a solution to this issue.

oof size big.jpeg ) I am surprised that 7,000 tabs open for over two years didn't take down the computer with it. At least we know what firefox is capable of now, and I think the logs from such a use would be valuable in making firefox more reliable. Perhaps this can be used as a browser stress test where a test rig with a Zeon CPU and 2TB of Ram is automatically configured to open up thousands of tabs with javascript games, news sites, youtube videos, podcasts, blogs etc with a debug build of the browser to see how much it can handle before it goes down.

@ingolftopf Thanks I'm a check out the forum you suggested

@Dr-Flay I agree totally.
The last time I was camera shopping I found most cameras did have an option to do that buried somewhere in the menu structure.
My Sony has it right up there but my old Canon has no such option.
Also though I am not familiar with mobile phone cameras, the old Samsung I have has no option for that function.
