I buy them in bulk by the can at a pretty good price already, but I'll look into that, thanks!
I mean, I like it lol, but I love chickpeas, I would almost eat them raw from the can.
My brother and I used to eat raw spaghetti from the box as kids. Idk why, we just liked the crunch and the taste lol.
Pan-fried canned chick peas with black pepper, butter, oregano, basil, and sometimes paprika, chili powder, and hot sauce if I want some kick.
I cook it when I'm in a rush or tired, it's done in 10-15 minutes, fills me up, and is packed with good protein.
But I would never feed it to anybody else, it's lazy bro/fitness food lol.
Was just starting to play with Syncthing on Android a month or so ago, very sad :(
Early this year, I switched my parents from Windows 10 to Linux Mint.
Very old, low power desktop, it was already running super slowly with Windows.
It's been great, the computer is much more responsive now, everything works just fine. Browser is the same, Spotify app from the store is great, printer/scanner, icons on the desktop, their ultrawide monitor, it all #justworks.
I also don't have to worry now about my dad clicking every weird and sketchy email link and ad.
Automatic updates are set up, and Timeshift snapshots are too, in case something breaks and needs rollback.
They get as much information from you as they possibly can. Age, sex, gender, weight, phone numbers, addresses, work history, purchase history, income, tax records, net worth, family and friends, hobbies, kinks, criminal records, food preferences, medical history, etc.
All of it is worth money, because the more data they have about you, the better they can predict what you will be interested in buying. They want to target ads towards you that have the highest chance of getting you to watch/click them.
Even if you think you aren't influenced by advertisements and marketing, you are. And remember, it isn't just you, they will use your data to target your friends and family. So even if you don't care about all your personal data being mined for targeted ads, you should care about your friends and family.
Also, they more data these government agencies and corporations have on you, then worse it is when (not if) they get hacked. So even if you have no issue with these companies and government agencies storing your data, you wouldn't want hackers and scammers to get that info and use it to hack your accounts and the accounts potentially of your family and friends too.
It's about having control over your information and keeping yourself safe and protected. If you truly had nothing to hide, you would walk around naked, leave your door unlocked with your valuables inside, hand random strangers your credit card number, and leave the bathroom stall open while pooping. But most likely, you don't do any of those things when you're out and about, and the same should be true for your digital life.
