And?

Does that somehow change the release date?

Also, I was running Lollipop in 2014,so not sure what you're on about in the first place.

Preach!!!

Give me the ticker back!

I disable heads up, permanently. God that's fucking awful.

It doesn't take long to associate an IMEI to a new user.

Then there's apps, accounts, etc. Gobs of data out there to associate a person - including tower and wifi connection data, which would easily associate a person with a device with a location with a time stamp.

"It's a federal crime" : the implication is clear.

What was said after that was sophistry to make him sound better.

The moment he said "it's a federal crime", the response should be "then I guess we're done talking here".

This is largely explained in the docs, but yes, yes, yes.

Bingo!

Plastic is in EVERYTHING.

This is one angle that nearly everyone doesn't get. Pickup anything around you, plastic is there.

All the solar/wind power stuff - massive plastic consumers.

And where do we get plastic (polymers)? Oil.

We're not getting away from oil anytime soon. If anything, we'll see improved recycling of polymer bases and supplanting of oil-based polymers with organics where we can...when the tech gets there (which will happen as the economic pressure to do so increases).

People hate to hear it, but economic pressures are just a proxy for resources (with some politics thrown in).

I haven't seen a 2-stroke mower in over 40 years.

Those are some great ideas about finding a non-running engine for free, tear it down and see how it works.

Seeing the crank rotate, the piston move, and the cam timing the valves opening - that was fun to do as a kid.

Lol, have my upvote.

Now baking... The Brits seem to get that.

It's all a result of history.

Hell, Brits were still under austerity through the 60's, and didn't really recover financially from WWII until the 80's.

There are some great shows on Amazon done by historian Ruth Goodman and friends. Victorian Farm, Tudor Farm, etc. "War Farm" really shows how difficult the Brits had it until post-WWII. I'd watch them in sequence, because it's great insight to the different periods.

And the well-heeled like keeping the distinction between them (French-speaking) and commoners (English-speaking).

It's interesting, because that's part of why Shakespeare was such a big deal - not only writing and performing in English for the Common Man, but was skewering the well-heeled while also expanding English.

Neat stuff.

They do not require the same amount of oil, by any measure (Metric or ACU).

Nor do they require the same heat. That's determined by the food and end goal.

Sautéing green beans at the same temp as a fried egg will make for unevenly cooked beans.

Trying to fry an egg at green been temps will make for a nasty, oil-soaked blob where the whites are rubber and the yolk is hard, and you'll never brown the whites.

Frying requires a moderately high heat. Sautéing can, but usually lower temps work better. With my pans, frying is about 70% heat, sautéing about 45%.

It also depends on the food.

Sautéing doesn't use anywhere near as much fat as frying does.

To fry something (pan frying) you need at least enough fat to ensure strong contact between the entire surface of the food and the pan. Something like 1/8" (about 5mm).

Now things like pan fried chicken will take more, about half the height of the chicken pieces in the pan.

Deep frying, well, the food should submerge/float.

Nope, nothing ambiguous to me.

To fry means to cook in a fat. That is all.

That's like saying "blue" is ambiguous simply because there's also 13 different Pantone blues.
