Foodstuffs can be food or something with which to make food.
Flour is a foodstuff, because you can use it to make food.
Corn can be eaten or it can be processed to make other food.
Meats can be eaten directly or made into other things like stew.

4·2 days agoWell, not truly silent because they have a musical score, but two classics are:
Metropolis:

Les Vampires (10 episodes):
4·5 days agoUntil someone has to go up to unplug it and plug it back in again. 😁
10·8 days agoI’d think, at least for the existing Steam Decks, it would involve some kind of internal modification as well since they don’t do charging like this.
59·9 days agoLooks like a standard bracket, it even has the slots ready to go!
We’ve survived another 308 days of Trump, which is a big deal. But I don’t see us being truly thankful until 11/23/2028 and even that is only a maybe.
4·10 days agoI am! Thanks!
I asked Google: “book comparing and contrasting anarchism with communism” and it returned a list, it will be interesting to see if any of these are AI hallucinations:
Books and collections
Marxism, Anarchism, Communism: Marx, Karl: This collection includes fundamental texts from both ideologies.
Appears to be a real book, but it’s just a collection of:
The Communist Manifesto by Karl Marx and Friedrich Engels
The Conquest of Bread by Peter Kropotkin
The State and Revolution by Vladimir Lenin
And then invites the reader to draw their own inferences.
Looks like all three are public domain:

https://www.marxists.org/archive/lenin/works/1917/staterev/index.htmAlso in the search:
“Anarchism, Anarchist Communism, and The State: Three Essays”
Well, from the Steam Deck tech specs page:
Processor
6 nm AMD APU
CPU: Zen 2 4c/8t, 2.4-3.5GHz (up to 448 GFlops FP32)
GPU: 8 RDNA 2 CUs, 1.6GHz (1.6 TFlops FP32) APU power: 4-15W
RAM 16 GB LPDDR5 on-board RAM (6400 MT/s quad 32-bit channels)
Then what we know about the Steam Machine, also from the tech specs page:
CPU Semi-custom AMD Zen 4 6C / 12T up to 4.8 GHz, 30W TDP
GPU Semi-Custom AMD RDNA3 28CUs 2.45GHz max sustained clock, 110W TDP
RAM 16GB DDR5 + 8GB GDDR6 VRAM
See how they run on the Steam Deck and then consider the Steam Machine is apparently 6x more powerful.
Baldur’s Gate 3:
Clair Obscure:
Cyberpunk:
Jedi Fallen Order:
Jedi Survivor:
Transport Tycoon Deluxe:
I can see unplugging the Raspberry Pi in the bedroom and replacing it with the Steam Machine.
I mean, I find my Steam Deck powerful enough and this is, what, 6x over the Steam Deck?
I could deal with the text size, but the controller mapping was a pain.
2·19 days agoI actually really liked both, but I’m a giant data nerd. LOL.
I was teaching Filemaker on 9/11. Day 1 was 9/10. Day 2:
“Ok, everyone knows what’s going on, if you need to leave, no penalty, you can come back at any time and re-take day 2 for free…”
Everyone stayed.
Meanwhile, a co-worker of mine was in the second tower teaching a class when the first tower got hit.
Word came down from the building that everyone should stay in place and he told his class quote: “Fuck that, everyone get out.”
Everyone lived. We couldn’t find out for like 2 weeks because the cell phones weren’t working.
I taught both Access and Filemaker back in the day. Once people got into it they really got into it!
I used to teach Microsoft Access:
“Scan Database For Errors” returned 1 of 2 messages:
“No Errors Found”
“Errors Found”
Good luck!
4·21 days ago“11+ years of service — 36 months’ salary”
Man, I wish my company would do that, I’d resign, pay off my house! 😉 I’d even have money left over!
8·23 days agoToo many fins!
(Don’t be silly, Saab is Swedish!)
The worst part is, late in the game they reveal a tunnel system… that does nothing. You can’t access it, it’s just two holes in the ground. LOL.
Still a delight to play!
