Would checking the driver first make sense here? The fact that the options are completely greyed out makes me wonder if it’s a permissions issue or something else.

100% of the things you eat have a Chemical-Taste.


My daughter majored in Chemistry, and one of her professors had a slogan - "Literally everything is Chemistry."

Taiwan has a veggie chicken that comes on a wood stick thing that's pretty good,  it's probably that formula.

The chemical taste is mostly psychological,  literally 100% of the things you eat have a Chemical-Taste.


For example, Sprite lime tastes exactly like lemon glass cleaner.

I don't eat chicken, but I once attempted to recreate that fried chicken recipe in vegetarian form.
I do remember from researching it that I did watch an old TV segment with Colonel Sanders himself actually using a pressure-fryer — so that wouldn't be "wrong".

And BTW, there are a couple KFC restaurants here in Sweden, and I've gone there to taste their vegetarian "mock-chicken" — and it was absolutely awful. It had a weird chemical taste of some sort, and I'm sure it was full of additives.

Tryn' to stop china's AI by blocking chip sales is the single greatest technological blunders in american history.

DO people not understand, that chinese people have the highest average intelligence genetically.

These yellow people form the back bone of Every Single Tech Conglomerate in the USA, not only in support roles, but developer/inventor/ research.

So, Our brilliant PLAN, was,  ok China, you can't buy our chip stuff,  Hahaha, WE WIN !! YAHhhhh America!!


China is an economy that is LARGER than the USA, by every industrial metric, steel, concrete, energy.  They have the #1 Concentration Of   CHINESE PEOPLE, on the planet.

They have Central State Planning,  EMperor says DO AI ,  they DO AI.

Their State system has virtually UNLIMITED CAPITAL Limits.  Their institutions produce more relevant scientific papers than the entire rest of the world COMBINED.


So,  Unlimited Money + State directed Long Term Investment + No political red tape + LOTS of Chinese_Brains + Industrial base that out produces the ENTIRE rest of the world.

THIS is our brilliant strategy, no,  you go make your own Computer stuff, stop moochn' off of 'Murika lithography.



Nah, they'll never make supr fast nvidia chips.

Meanwhile, Nvidia Employees, 35% chinese,  AMD,  35% chinese.



Even from the basis of Corporate Espionage, it's IMPOSSIBLE to stop leaks, this is just stuff on paper.

So, instead of increasing the DEPENDENCY that China would have on "American Technology",  we hand that entire market over to the Most Intelligent Group of Humans on the Planet.

Day 15 updat:


The western world is falling apart.  But Tp4 persists, under great poverty.

Curry still gud,  Tp4 physically feel energized.  Mentally the curry is soothing,  AS YOU KNOW, Spices are psychotropic and strongly antioxidative.


Technicals:

A good way to oil toast the spices with 0-risk of burning them is to add lots of sugar with the spices. 8 tablespoons.

The sugar forms a protective shell around the spices while remaining very hot in the oil,  ONTOP of being a direct indicator for temperature, if it's too hot, the sugar will blacken instead of remaining more/less amber.


When the sugar congeals with the spices,  it essentially picks it up from the base and become little blocks, so when you put in other ingredients to fry, like onion pepper, then cook, the spices do not immediately release,  After the fry part,  the blocks dissolve when you add the chopped tomato base, as the tomato release enough water for the soup cook.
