Marinara Starita in a restaurant called Starita in the city of Naples. Sourdough crust and amazing tomato sauce. After that New York style pepperoni pizza and detroit style vodka sauce deep dish.
Well… I’m still in the US, and on this trip I mostly just get a Budweiser or Modelo when I want a beer. I feel like I don’t need to make a scene about the beer I drink, because a beer is a beer… I also enjoyed Coors Banquet a lot.
Wines are a different matter. In the Oregon vineyards I’ve had some of the best pinots I’ve ever tasted, much better than the pinots I’ve had in France. One of the best things on this trip was our day of tastings in the different wineries.
It is very hard to brew a good lager, like the good Helles style famously brewed in Bavaria. I’ve been on a mission every time I come to the US to find good Helles, and I found two places that get very close:
This place in Seattle: https://maps.app.goo.gl/czPMtm4xkunkopEc8
And this in Weaverville: https://maps.app.goo.gl/wuNS33EcQ1qC9zfb9
But quite often even if they advertise the beer as German style Helles, it has some quality that makes it very different. Usually it’s sweet or even hoppy. I think for an american a special beer should have a special taste, but a good Helles is just very fresh and crisp beer.
Edit: and Becks is one of the worst beers in Germany in my opinion… At least nobody tries to sell overpriced Sternburg here.
A classic Monty Python joke from Live at the Hollywood Bowl. Definitely some truth in this… I live in Germany with some of the best lagers in the world, and having a Miller Light for the first time was a really weird experience.
Now when I’ve visited the US quite a few times, I can say I dislike the expensive craft beers way more compared to the classic american lagers… They are way too hoppy, but the worst thing is how much more expensive they are! Like a pale ale can be over ten dollars, but a pint of PBR is 3.50. Beer should be cheap, and I don’t really like how this craft beer culture made the prices go so high.
It is actually quite nice. You sudo something in the terminal and can just swipe your finger to the reader without needing to type your password.
It is such a beautiful system too. I would love to use it more, but nix and NixOS have kind of ruined every other operating system for me…
If you follow a certain orange website, until very recently there’s been a big group of apologists who protect the big and mighty if any bad news surfaced.
This has started to change, but the change is very recent. And in the startup ecosystem using a Mac is a standard and if you do not like them, you are considered weird and the latest social note keeping tool everybody else uses in the company has severe bugs on Linux, if it even works.
I call it Wayland/Linux.
It has the best integration with zfs, and has had that for a long time already.
Yeah, also a bit wary of btrfs. I sure hope some day bcachefs can be the true cow filesystem in Linux. There is hope, it is pretty good already.
NixOS definitely solves the issue of rollbacks the best here. And FreeBSD.
Just a glass full of crushed ice and drink your water like a true American 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
But to be serious, I’d like to have a water filter in my fridge. The water here has a bit too much calc to my taste.
That reminds me I should finally play Donkey Kong on game boy. It is supposedly the best game for the system…
…in US. Pretty rare in the EU where apartments usually come with the cheapest fridge available.
Laughs in NixOS, smiles in btrfs snapshots.
Used i3 and then sway almost a decade. When Plasma 6 arrived, I just wanted to try it out and it just kind of stuck to me. Lovely desktop.
I run Piped from my homelab, from our home IP. I wonder if they will limit our home too…
In Germany, we have a health insurance card. Let’s say your insurer is Techniker Krankenkasse. They provide you a card with your photo and an NFC chip. You show this card in any doctor/hospital you visit, and your expenses are all paid. Today, as a new feature, your prescriptions are also stored to this card. You show the card in the pharmacy, get your medicine and the costs are all paid by the insurance company (minus the co-pay, 10 euros, which you pay by yourself).
Edit: To be clear, we don’t have public hospitals or doctors. They’re all private. But the insurance can be public, and the doctors and hospitals accept your public insurance and you don’t need to pay for them.
The fourth can is the one where he packed Kinski’s tongue after he died.
