That’s me. I do find some images of puppies or kittens cute though. But never the grown up ones. And it’s not that bad. I just don’t go to those communities.

I’m not the one who’s trying to change history here. We know that the Chinese have the oldest recorded tea consumption. Doesn’t make that the only valid way of doing it. It’s like saying that there’s only one authentic way to cook a potato, which is whatever the first person did with it.

And about whatever you said about tea being a new thing in India, it’s not accurate. It was first mass produced after the British came. But it actually goes back quite a bit. Camellia sinensis var. assamica is actually indigenous to the Assam region of India, and not “stolen from the Chinese”. Some think that some tribes in India (Singpho, Khamti) have been consuming tea from at least the 12th Century, though they had a different name for it. Some (A Revision of the Genus Camellia by Robert Sealy) think it goes back further, but idk about that.

But honestly, that’s not even the point. Why did you even feel the need to type this comment? Even if it was a 200 old tradition, that’s a pretty long time. And it should be accepted as a valid way of brewing. I’m not even disputing anything. I simply pointed out that there are alternative traditions. That the world isn’t fucking black and white. Seriously dude, when did I say anything that claimed that Indians invented tea? This isn’t twitter, no need to do this shit here.

Why do you think that the Chinese way is the only way to prepare authentic tea? It’s so weird dude. We have an ancient tea tradition in India. That’s my point. That a purist might think this method as the proper way too. And it’d be just as valid.

Which is a type of tea.

Truly one of the doods of all time.

It depends. It’s perfectly acceptable to boil the tea for many Indian preparations (usually called cha or chai).

Yep, that’s the one.

Side note: If I’m wearing headphones, and you don’t know me, and you disturb me without a good reason, I won’t hurt you or anything, but know that you’re a bad bad person.

The first dude has a proto-smirk.

I remember there being some Android phone (some generation of Samsung Galaxy S series probably) with a “feature” where it pauses video playback if you look away from it. Good thing it didn’t catch on.

Thanks, I’ll check it out.

Thanks for the suggestion.

Where are you, if I may ask? Their Intel offers are not based in the US. Most of the time, I’ll access it from inside US, so I’m worried about the latency.

Saw both a total eclipse and Northern lights this year. Lived up to the hype. Totally worth it.

Fun fact: (Almost) 100% of dead people pissed at some point in their life.

Without anything extra, there are three ways of doing it:

1. Using Tailscale Funnel
2. Direct port forwarding in your router, and pointing to the IP using some DDNS provider (e.g. desec.io)
3. Through Cloudflare tunnel (not recommended due to privacy reasons)

In each case, you’ll need a reverse proxy (e.g. Caddy) if you want secure https connections.

If you’re willing to spend money, the better way would be to proxy through a VPS (using something like a Wireguard tunnel). In that way, you won’t have to open ports on your home router. You can get a very cheap one since proxying doesn’t need much CPU power. Just choose one with enough bandwidth. I personally proxy most of my stuff through a $12/yr RackNerd VPS.

Bank is legal because… reasons…

To be fair, he was the most culturally relevant homer for almost 2700 years. (And still is, outside of US and maybe a few other countries.)

P.S. I know it’s a shitposting community.

Idk why, but I read it in Žižek’s voice. Probably due to the etc.

JonTron. That’s how.

Damn, the Germans are getting freaky, eh?
