California Passes Right-to-Repair Act Guaranteeing Seven Years of Parts for Your Phone.

Jump

  • They might think that it's comparatively easy for them to comply, giving them an advantage over other manufacturers who may not be able to guarantee a parts supply that long.

    • ‘America Is The Greatest Country On Earth,’ Says Man Who Spends 6 Hours A Day Posting About How Every City Third World Hellhole

  • It would make more sense as "every city in US is a third world hellhole" otherwise there's no irony.

    • These NOW albums are a lot different than I remember

  • Seahorse, you must have terrabytes of memes saved up and I'm so here for it all.

  • It's honestly amazing to me that the can canon actually works. I can't decide if a soup-sized version would work or not, but it would seem less fun anyhow.

    • Yum yum yum please don't shoot my dog

    Jump

  • Shit, okay, but they really should do a limited edition American flag poptart. I would think it was absolutely ridiculous unless they did it ironically, but I bet it could actually taste pretty good.

    • Advocates Sue Over 'Deceptive' Ballot Language for Ohio Abortion Rights Amendment

  • Very good. Let's hope they win the case. That board language is bullshit.

    • Foxconn's promise to invest $10 billion in Wisconsin is now a distant memory. It's now selling two mostly empty buildings in the state.

  • Ah poop. Well I guess it's time to sue. Fun.

  • Never ever ever ever take a company at their word. If it's not in a contract, it doesn't exist.

    • Man who drove through Cedar Rapids protestors argues he had right of way as trial begins

    Jump

  • Hang on, yeah, why didn't he just plow into the back of the other vehicle? That was blocking his right of way too!

    • non-standard recipes

    Jump

  • Yes! This is exactly what I was thinking! Thank you! I just went to the website and read through the instructions. Hopefully the puree turns out decent.

    • non-standard recipes

    Jump

  • Oh excellent! One of the hardest part of a new hobby is learning all the terminology. I'll go read about purees right now. Thank you!

  • So I take it using a pressure canner is more of an attempt at creating an internally sterile environment rather than a guarantee? I wouldn't mind freezing jars after canning, we've got a chest freezer that's going to need some filling up in the near future.

    Obviously I'm way ahead of myself here, but I'd like to get to the point where I can come up with reasonable recipes on my own instead of following instructions and trying to imagine why something is a terrible idea is part of familiarizing myself with the nuances of canning.

    • non-standard recipes

    Jump

  • Oh, yeah, sorry I wasn't very clear with my idea. I figured I'd throw them in a clean jar and sterilize it the same way you would with regular canned goods. The safest way would be to use a pressure canner, as far as I know. I figure if we're certain it's sterile then everything else about the interior is all about preferred taste and fighting molecular degradation.

    • Got myself a new toy! $150 off of Craigslist, only used once

  • Uh, so I am going to do my own learning, but I had the idea of just baking mason jars with the lid placed on top (but not tightened). Would this not work?

    • GOP Lawsuit Asks Ohio Supreme Court to Block Abortion Rights Measure

  • My very limited understanding of US and Ohio law tells me this lawsuit is a joke and will get thrown out. It would be ridiculous for a constitutional amendment to have to specifically identify all the laws it's going to impact.
