Security and compliance. It’s a certification that you’re following best practices, IT and otherwise.

I have a pet pig, a “mini”. That fucker will eat anything and doesn’t care about much else but food. He is highly intelligent, smartest animal I’ve ever known.

But yeah, you can literally feed him garbage and turn it into meat. Now I understand why we bred pigs the way we did.

Great example is Logitech solar keyboards. Never had one die unless it was left in a dark closet for 6-months, and after leaving on it on the porch for lunch, good to go.

Been buying these for my users for years, never had the battery crap out.

My kids (9 and 11) seem to think it’s a fashion statement. They never match. Whatever.

Yes, it was a complex war, and worthy of study.

No, the South wasn’t fighting for (much of) anything more than keeping slavery. You are free to read the letters of succession that every state sent Congress and see for yourself, draw your own conclusions. My take away is that slavery was clearly the top concern, but they had other gripes as well.

No, the North wasn’t fighting so much for the rights of blacks. The North was hardly the “good guys” regarding that, but it’s damned fortuitous they won or we would have been split and weakened.

What happened after the war is perhaps more interesting than the casus belli.

Can’t speak to Nigerian cooking, but onions are a staple crop in this household.

Just bought 4 more green onion bundles because we eat the tops faster than they can grow.

Onions are stupid easy to grow, packed with nutrients and there are 1,000 ways to cook with them.

It’s a pole pounder, which, coincidentally, is my nickname.
