I've tried both ways and didn't really note any differences. If anything, unpressed might've had a slightly better texture.
I find for crumbled or smaller pieces of tofu, pressing doesn't do much. It's really more for when you have bigger chunks and want to marinate it, in my experience.

For a savory breakfast, my go-to is tofu scramble. I keep my spices premixed in a mason jar so it's really easy. Oil in a pan, crumble up the tofu, add spices and a can of black beans. If I'm feeling fancy or have veggies I want to use up, I'll fry those up a bit before adding the tofu.
For dessert-breakfast, (vegan) waffles with maple syrup and fresh strawberries is my Saturday morning staple.
If anyone's curious, here's the spice mix I use for my tofu scramble (quantities listed are good for around 6-8 blocks of tofu):
4 Tbsp nutritional yeast
2 tsp chili powder
2 tsp ground cumin
2 tsp black salt (also called kala namak)
1.5 tsp turmeric (for colour)
1/2 tsp garlic powder

You never knowingly met a Linux user. Statistically speaking, you probably have.
The issue is that OS-preference is not very common as a small talk topic. This is why you should name drop your fav distro in every conversation.

I work in a café, so I really only pay for my coffee on my days off.
I average maybe half a pound of beans per month for home brewing, so let's say $20 for a nice bag from a local roaster (in Canada-bucks). Ten or so dollars in V60 filters is enough to last me most of a year, so add a dollar a month. I also like checking out cafés, so add $15/$20 in random café visits, and I'd typically spend anywhere from $20 to $40ish per month.

Using the name of a place to refer to its residents is super common and widely-understood. It's a form of metonym.
Another example of metonymy would be "White House cracks down on crime", obviously the White House is a building and cannot enforce laws. "White House" in this situation is a metonym for the President and/or their administration.
Hope this helps clear up your confusion! 😊

You don't need even near the amount of male hatchlings that get produced for reproductive purposes. The vast majority of male chicks on egg farms get ground up.
Also, from an animal rights standpoint, "hey we don't kill all of them, we need some males in order to subjugate their offspring to cruel conditions!" is more of an argument against egg farming than for it.

Also, doesn't Canada have a king now? Do they still recognise the UK royalty as heads of state, or did that change
OP isn't talking about our old gal Lizzie, they're talking about the queen of Canada Romana Didulo, who leads a QAnon-based cult and tours around Canada with them in an RV. Here's an excerpt from her Wikipedia article about her claims to the throne:
Though Didulo did not initially explain the basis for her claim to be the Monarch of Canada, she later clarified that she had been "appointed" to that position by an American named David J. Carlson, purportedly the "Commander-In-Chief" and "King" of the United States. Didulo claims that Carlson appointed her after she led in 2017 a mission against the Chinese communist military, who were allegedly occupying Canada in underground tunnels, where they were producing adrenochrome, trafficking humans and planning to start World War III by attacking the United States.

I find it so cool that you've been vegan for 24 years, as a younger vegan (7 years) I thank you for suffering through groceries with one brand of soy milk and maybe some tofu (if you're lucky) so that we can live in this world were I have access to vegan fudgesicles at the local grocery store.
I'm curious though, because veganism has definitely been a point of contention in my past few relationships; how do you and your wife manage meals? Do you do separate meals, or is it more of a "she's vegan at home" type situation?

(Also, as a footnote, Espresso shots die after 5-10 seconds; the crema just dissipates after then, making the shot taste acidic)
Espresso shots "dying" within 10 seconds is a myth, apparently started by Starbucks' training funnily enough. The flavour of a shot definitely dies down as it gets cooler and the crema dissipates, but it's a matter of minutes rather than seconds before a shot tastes bad.
Heck it takes more than 10 seconds to get the drink to the clients in every café I've worked in. If espresso dies after 10 seconds, I have never served a good espresso. I've also apparently never had good espresso at work, because I swear every damn time I pull a shot for myself a client comes right in before I can take a sip :P

NB has never been a safe haven for queer people, but the brazenness of homophobes and transphobes has increased dramatically since Premier Higgs' attack on trans youth and policy 713.
I personally know quite a few drag performers in the province, and every single one of them consistently receives death threats and harassment on their social media.
If you vote conservative, fuck you. The rhetoric of the Conservatives (both provincially in NB and federally) is directly influencing the rise of hate crimes towards people I love. If you still support these political parties, you are either uninformed to a ridiculous degree (in which case, please educate yourself before giving your support to people) or you're a shitstain on society.

It's wild how conservatives constantly have the worst takes on absolutely everything. It'd be funny if I weren't so worried. How they always end up having whichever opinion is furthest away from scientific consensus and/or human decency is actually absurd. You'd think they'd at least occasionally end up having a few reasonable, well thought-out views.

Jake Moffatt was booking a flight to Toronto and asked the bot about the airline's bereavement rates – reduced fares provided in the event someone needs to travel due to the death of an immediate family member. Moffatt said he was told that these fares could be claimed retroactively by completing a refund application within 90 days of the date the ticket was issued, and submitted a screenshot of his conversation with the bot as evidence supporting this claim. The airline refused the refund because it said its policy was that bereavement fare could not, in fact, be claimed retroactively. Air Canada argued that it could not be held liable for information provided by the bot.

Hello! I've posted this a few weeks ago on /c/linux4noobs@programming.dev but I didn't get much of an answer, I hope it's okay to post it here as well. I use 3 audio devices on my computer: my monitor's speakers (through HDMI), my headphones (through line-out/built-in audio) and my microphone (line-in/built-in audio). They all work fine, but when I reboot my headphones / line-out don't seem to get recognized at all. The only solution I've found thus far is to re-install alsa-utils twice after rebooting. Upon the first reinstall, my line-out / headphones reappear but my line-in mic disappears, only to come back after the second reinstall. Technically my sound works perfectly fine after this, but it feels extremely dumb to reinstall a package twice after every reboot. Any help would be greatly appreciated, thanks in advance :)
Hi there! For context, I'm on EndeavourOS using Pipewire. So like the title says, my audio configuration works until I reboot my PC and then I need to fix it. I'm using both my CPU's internal audio (to power a microphone and headphones through 3.5mm audio jacks) as well as my GPU (to send audio to my monitor through HDMI). I never use the headphones and monitor speakers concurrently, I switch between them in the device manager as needed. When I reboot, only my HDMI audio and microphone appear in my device manager. The only fix I've found so far is to `sudo pacman -S alsa-utils`, which makes my internal audio reappear but makes my microphone disappear. I then re-reinstall alsa-utils which makes the microphone reappear, giving me access to all three of my devices. Anyone have any leads on how to permanently fix this? My system still works, but it feels really silly re-installing alsa-utils twice after every reboot.
Okay I'm fully aware of how ridiculous this sounds in 2023, but bare with me. I have a wonderful neighbour, Jackie. She's in her mid-sixties, and ever since she moved in we have become very good friends, she's like a second mom to me. Jackie *loves* movies and has an enormous DVD collection. One day, she was talking about how she couldn't find a particular movie, and I said "I can probably download that for you!" Her immediate reply was "Can you put it on a DVD?" I tried telling her the many reasons it would be better to use a myriad of other solutions, but she insists on DVDs. I did them for a while using DVDStyler on Windows, and it worked fine. But then I installed EndeavourOS on a new partition on my hard drive, tried using Brasero and Devede but it wouldn't read on her DVD player. Then I tried DVDStyler on my Linux partition, and it didn't work on her DVD player, despite saying the operation was successful on my end. I then tried booting up into Windows and using DVDStyler, and that *also* didn't work, not even letting me burn the disc. Does anyone have *any* ideas what could fix this? I've tried playing around with the settings in all these apps but I couldn't figure it out. Apologies if this isn't the best place to ask this, but I figured a community of pirates would understand my desire to get movies to Jackie without her having to pray to find them in a pawn shop!

::: spoiler Traduction en français (DeepL) Les groupes de logement des Maritimes demandent un projet de logement public d'un milliard de dollars et une stratégie nationale pour aider les personnes vivant dans la rue. Cheryl Forchuck, chercheuse au Homeless Hub, a voyagé dans chaque province et territoire du Canada pour tenter de trouver des solutions à l'itinérance et a partagé ce qu'elle a appris lors d'un forum organisé jeudi au Cap-Breton. "Le Canada est le seul pays industrialisé au monde qui n'a pas de responsabilité en matière de logement et d'itinérance au niveau national", a déclaré Mme Forchuk. Selon elle, le nombre de sans-abri a augmenté dans tout le pays. "Nous assistons à la prolifération des campements, des personnes vivant à l'extérieur parce que le système n'a pas la capacité nécessaire. Bien que le problème des sans-abri soit généralement traité au niveau local, M. Forchuk estime qu'il s'agit d'une crise nationale et qu'elle doit être abordée en tant que telle. "J'aimerais qu'une stratégie nationale sur le sans-abrisme soit pleinement mise en œuvre", a déclaré M. Forchuk. Jeudi également, le Carrefour du logement du Nouveau-Brunswick a demandé à la province de financer la construction de 10 000 nouveaux logements sociaux. "Au Nouveau-Brunswick, nous demandons au gouvernement provincial d'aider à soutenir le secteur du logement communautaire en investissant 1 milliard de dollars au cours des cinq prochaines années", a déclaré Mylene Vincent, de Housing Hub of New Brunswick. Selon Mme Vincent, le marché locatif de la province a perdu environ 9 000 logements dont les loyers sont inférieurs à 750 $ depuis 2016 "Nous ne trouverons pas de solutions tant que nous ne considérerons pas nos populations sans-abri comme faisant partie de notre communauté, comme nos voisins, comme des personnes." ___ :::
