    I got to feed endangered African penguins once at an aviary! They just swallow whole fish (whether in the water or tossed to them though the air), no need for prep or plating.

    Fun fact, they secrete all that fish oil right onto their feathers (it helps them glide though the water), but that makes them little stink monsters! Seriously, penguins smell rather terrible haha.

    i grew up near Marine World Africa USA before it got bought out by six flags. It was the Standard Second Grade Field Trip out here to go to Marine World and go see the animals and ride the teacups that i swear disneyland ripped off and made better (yes i made this part of the story up when i was in second grade shut up). But the park was not opened up for the summer yet and all us little shits got to run around. And at 2pm they had a penguin feeding and I told my teacher I loved the pengies at the Portland Oregon zoo, so we went to see the pengies and get a special lesson from the pengie trainer. I don't remember most of it but i got to throw a fish at not to (let's be honest i still throw like an uncoordinated 6 year old who should have been drummed off his tee ball team) the penguins.

    It was neat
    i had an onion on my belt

    first song i ever wrote that was good was about one of their elephant trainers, who was a good friend, but that's another story

    Nothing wrong with Ubuntu if you just wanna get stuff done and don't have a genuine interest in (or time to spend on) tweaking your OS.

    I use Ubuntu btw.

    There is lots wrong with Canonical imho, but this isn't the place for it.

    Debian here. IMO "btw" is reserved for a particular distribution and you know which one it is.

    When I have even the smallest bit of time and headspace to dedicate to it, I will switch back to Debian as it was always my favourite but really can't deal with it at the moment.

    I like Debian, it is boring in the best way.

    I really did not like the process of upgrading from one stable version of Debian to the next. It went OK, but i remember being anxious the whole time, compared to Ubuntu's gui workflow, and failing that, the one-command cli version that i always have to look up

    I love a boring OS that just works for 90% of things and you just live with whatever the other 10% is - usually some driver quirks or peripheral funk.

    I've never used the gui for upgrade but I also have a hard time remembering do-make-release.

    It looks like you are running this to the AVR, wired or through wifi/BT?

    So I have this old sony bravia that technically supports 120hz but only with a custom EDID, and somewhere along the line of making the EDID I screwed up the display name. But I have one HDMI going to the TV and one HDMI going to the AVR for audio (to minimize input latency). It looks even more absurd in display properties lol.

    I use Ubuntu at work. I don't even care, it's legit 500% faster than my work Windows laptop, despite being objectively lower-speccd.

    I use nobara at home. Windows free in my personal life for like a decade at least now. I wanted something solid out of the box, not atomic (I like the idea I just think it's overkill for a home workstation. The sheepdog is a pet, not part of flock), fedora based with good brtfs support.

    But Ubuntu is good enough. Not as if "better than windows" is a particularly high bar, though.

    And as a fellow seafood lover, I want some of what you're smoking.

    I mean what the hell is going on in the top and bottom right quadrants? What's with that bright orange, Kraft-colored noodle slop? And I can't even begin to describe what the other thing is supposed to be. Also, no cocktail sauce for the shrimp? No butter for the surimi? The shrimp doesn't even appear to be deveined! IDK about you, but I don't want to eat a bottom feeder's digestive tract along with all the nasties inside of it!

    Bottom right Mushroom wild rice, top right is wasbi mayo. I think the fish are smelts. The imitation crab and shrimp im not sure about.But the rest of the plate I can say is indigenous cuisine and native to my area. Very delicious for the most part epsiecally the wild rice.
