Prepared my first purple sweet potatoes this morning. They were quite delicious and I prefer smaller potatoes with more skin/volume ratio. There was an aftertaste/mouthfeel that I think I prefer to the regular orange ones.

@Djeep This is pretty cool and they look way more attractive.

@royal Use oil and an abrasive pad. After the gunked on oil is off, clean with Dawn soap and water.

Trying to refine how our family organizes their recorded pictures and videos. Data is coming in from all sorts of places. So many files have duplicates and duplicate names (I.E. IMG_1001). Data is being migrated to a ZFS dataset and organized with DigiKam. Lots of tagging and adding descriptions happening. Can anyone think of any downsides to renaming the files according to their hash? The end goal is to have many directories, named after tags, full of hard linked media. Thoughts?

Bingo Burger in Pueblo makes a pretty good plant-based burger!

@Berrybunchfamily I’ve seen it a couple times, but never as an adult. It really is good and the effects amazing for the time.

I don’t normally watch stuff by myself, but tonight I’m on the road, watching this, and eating roughly a pound of pistachios. Mmm, sweet chili…

@Russ is getting a little carried away with the baptisms! J/K. A young deer fell through the ice on his pond this week and drowned. Logan, who was baptized in the pond last September, harvested it and will prepare some this evening.

A local band that just didn't get enough love IMO.

@Kingstrum Never heard of MPD, looking into it, thanks.

@Linux_in_a_Bit Yes, just an old laptop.

Anyone have opinions on the best audio/music library players for Linux? My folks are finally setting up a server at their house and something that doesn’t require endless fiddling would be nice. Playback control of the sound system by phones and other devices on the network would be a major plus.

@chiasm I read the first book and the Cultural Revolution stuff was the most interesting part to me because I knew so little about it. Didn’t feel compelled to read the rest.

The Wonka movie wasn't bad for a fun family movie. Chalamet was a good cast for a young Wilder and he made a memorable performance. The plot seemed devoid of any social agenda, which was refreshing, and I can even remember a few lines from some of the songs. Almost every musical lately has had such bad, forgettable, music.

I am so grateful for modern conveniences. I often think about how difficult it would be raising a kid with a disability without them. In times past folks would send their kids off to asylums and I can understand that choice, especially if they had lots of other kids to consider. Thankfully now, if Heidi makes a mess, I can just shower her off, throw some things in the washer, etc...Several of my blind friends have had their lives improved so much by technology. Use these amazing tools wisely!

@Jo_PrayerN_actionCenter it is a simple text to speech program. If the computer tells her that it’s time to go to bed, then it must be true!😂

@Big_Diggity A text to speech engine that I use in the terminal.
