  • I still haven’t found any good egg replacements either.
    I’m either buying my eggs from neighbors who take care of the chickens themselves, or else I’m buying them from Vital Farms. At least they acknowledge that there’s a problem with how the industry handles male chicks and are actively investing in ways to change this.






  • This is much easier said than done. Around large parts of the United States you can’t reliably commute by public transit. For me personally, without a car, a one way 40 mile trip to the major city near me would take 5 hours. That’s 2 different trains and 2 different busses.

    Add that to the fact that the station closest to me only has a few trains a day and my options are very limited.

    Even if we ignore the current train schedule and assume that trains come by every 5 min, it would still be a 2 hour trip that costs me $20 for one way. I could then bike the rest of the way and avoid the last 2 buses.

    There are rail passes I could get, but those would cost $477/month. It’s cheaper to lease a Tesla at that point.

    Owning a car is pretty much the only reasonable way of getting around for many parts of the U.S.


  • Project Zomboid! Easily one of the most feature rich zombie games I have ever played. It’s basically “the Sims” on steroids with zombies.

    Your laptop should be able to handle it easily. It takes a while to figure things out, but you can tweak the zombie settings to your preference. It also has a multiplayer option if you’re looking for a community while playing.
