  • My local ALDI has guanciale from time to time and when it doesn’t I just use bacon. I would say guanciale takes it from 8/10 to 9/10. There’s difference but bacon does the job. Same with parmesan. I’m sure pecorino would be better but you can still make correct carbonara with the things you can easily find in most stores (at least in Spain).

    I don’t have issues with scrambling eggs. I add a bit of pasta water (as you should) and heat it up slowly. I don’t remember the last time I fucked it up. And I ate carbonara made but different people and I like mine to most :)

    It’s definitely not a “throw ingredients into a pot” recipe but it’s still fairly quick and easy.




  • Yes, it’s all true.

    Too bad those systems are closed sources and we can’t verify they do any of those things.

    My biggest issue with them is not even the privacy. I think at some point we sadly will have to accept that driving is not a private activity anymore. I mean you can still try driving a very old car and try to avoid traffic cameras but it will be harder and harder.

    For me the biggest issue that those systems are extremely annoying. In my experience they fail to accurately recognize the speed limits so will beep at you constantly even when you drive below the speed limit. People say they also struggle with sunglasses and many normal activities. I expect driving those new cars to be constant struggle with alerts about nothing.





  • I never had an issue with a soggy straw or I don’t remember it. It’s the same as the attached caps in plastic bottles.

    Do people really have issues with those things or is this just some stupid propaganda from the plastic industry? I feel like only really fragile people would complain about such silly things. If drinking through straws is so fucking important part of your life get a metal one and shut up.
