My, my, my, such large chickens for that coop dropped out in the middle of a prairie or something!

I’ve posted this before (sorry!) but it’s such a triumph of bad Photoshopping that I’m dragging it out again:

Forgot to mention that one of the best things about this pic (which was on Amazon, of course) is that it was in a listing for bird netting, and one of the suggested purposes for it, in nearly incomprehensible English, was to screen in a balcony.

So for all of you in your 14th-floor apartments, you CAN get some fresh air for your giraffe (and hen) after all!

No! It's far simpler. Potato and leftover cabbage, mashed and fried.

So, which is bubble, and which is squeak??

The house chickens will love it!

I got my first I phone from a previous job (~ 10 years ago) . Its a bit different in the beginning. But I started to love it soon after.
I have bought my own iPhones since. They last much longer than Samsungs/ One’s/ LG’s/ etc. I bought a new iphone16 a year ago. It has a very good camera too.

My notebooks last much longer than my husband’s too. Now he uses my old (2017 model) MacBook for videoconferencing bc the connection to the camera, of his laptop, broke.

That's been my experience too. Life in the Apple universe can be maddening at times, but hey, they work! Adblockers on all devices, so no ads. Apparently better privacy than other devices, but I'm sure that's all been compromised by now as well.

cons: Apple Music is a pig - MS Media Player is (or at least was) much better. MS Office for Mac is dumbed down, deliberately I'm convinced. There's always something I used to be able to do on my work (Windows) computer that I couldn't do on my iMac with Office for Windows, and it wasn't worth the hassle to divide the hard drive and make half of it Windows. And now Windows has apparently gone to crap, from what friends tell me.

It's really not a Pixel issue. It is the only Android phone that isn't bloated with useless and unnecessary software and the easiest to use other than iPhone.

With the exception of all of the Google AI stuff being shoved in my face.

Windows isn't great nowadays. The bloat is crazy.

Windows Media Player is great. VLC for video playback on macOS is worth it.

See if LibreOffice works.

I might have to, although the idea of learning yet another OS at my age is tiresome.

But the endless AI crap in Office THAT CAN'T BE TURNED OFF is pushing me right over the edge of the cliff, so maybe that's where I'll wind up.

Is this how you make it?

Too fancy...lol Mix everything+ extra cabbage into the mashed potatoes and fry it up in the left-over meat fat.

Did he ever actually add cabbage? Maybe I was distracted, but kale seemed to be the closest thing I saw.
