For the most part, you are right, and I'll acknowledge that how I worded that it sounded more complain-y than I really meant to. If anything I was trying to say that I thought it seems silly that things like that exist, and not that I have a big problem with it.

That said, I don't buy those products, but they still work their way into my life. If you have a vegan in your circle of friends or go out with one you'll eventually find yourself at a vegan pizza place, or being offered vegan "bacon" with breakfast.

I don't have a problem with veganism. I love eating vegetables, and enjoy plenty of meals without any animal products. What I could do without is the vegan products that imitate animal products. I am so much happier with a vegetable "burger" that embraces the taste of vegetables instead of one that tries to mimic the taste, texture and appearance of beef.

Possible unpopular opinion: I wouldn't be upset if they dug up Arlington National Cemetery.

This, like absolutely everything, is different depending on who you are. Nothing, everything and anything is important to someone and not important at all to someone else.

It sounds like you're looking for slaves. There's a reason slavery is illegal.

If this isn't deliberately rage bait, there is something very wrong with you.

I prefer fountain pens. I usually carry a couple disposable ones in my bag, and keep the nicer refillable ones on my desk at home and at work.

Ohh, cool. Thanks for the warning. This just got complicated enough that I am definitely going to have do go down this rabbit hole.

Interesting question. I don't know. I haven't actually had a chance to dig in yet.

My wife had to do the low fodmap thing for a while, but I'm usually the one who does the cooking. She is also vegetarian which limited things even more. The best thing I learned was you could get decent pizza dough by combining gluten free flour and adding back in vital wheat gluten.

As you probably already know, regular flour isn't low fodmap, but gluten free flour is. As long as you don't have an issue with gluten, you can buy and vital wheat gluten separately and mix it in and end up with something that more closely resembles regular dough.

Unfortunately I don't remember what ratio I used. I also never tried extending it to other bread-like foods but it might be worth a try. I hope the general idea is enough for you to start some experiments.

Good luck!

I'm guessing you've already happened across this, but in case you haven't, here is an explanation of the the compilation flags thorium uses for it's chromium builds:

It seems as good of a place to start as any.

I haven't spent a ton of time down this particular rabbit hole, but now I may have to.

Thanks.

Don't be "that guy".

Depending on the situation, whatever "that guy" is will be different, but generally I try not to be "that guy". Very rarely "that guy" is a good guy, and then the whole philosophy breaks down, but most of the time that's not the case, and I am happy trying not to be "that guy".
