They're self rising Pillsbury biscuits (or similar). Not what Americans call cookies that Brits call biscuits

And yeah, they come in a tube. The plastic/papery wrap is structural to keeping the pressure on them. It's pretty neat packaging design. This is the first I've heard of the little pop being considered scary though

I totally get that, I have a few suggestions since I've been in the same situation for years and have recently improved it.

Our Yamaha stereo takes many HDMI inputs, and has a single TV output, so the TV never needs to change inputs. It's quite easy and quick on the Yamaha.

I bought a Raspberry Pi 500 for ~$100 US and am loving it. I think it could use a speed upgrade (I hear the SD card will do it). Of course it's mouse and keyboard, but we only use it for Netflix, YouTube, etc, so it was easy to make shortcuts and get a small/nice living room keyboard/mouse combo.

It's led to zero ads, and the household discussion was like "would you trade some ease of use to not see this stupid ad?" And we both agreed that it's worth it. So far it's been really nice.

I really want to be a very intelligent, low strength Orc Barbarian who is extremely fragile about feats of strength, showing off, etc. And embarrassed about being perceptive/intelligent

I finally grabbed Subnautica and I'm loving it so far

I just wanna say that you're amazing for doing this. It's really cool. I don't need anything, but thanks on behalf of everyone for giving the gift of games

I really like answering rednecks sigh "even if the fetus was a person, it's not an american"

The thumbnail on the account says "I support the former things"

Surely this is satire, even for them that's too stupid a quote

This was a great video, and he's got a few interesting ones on beating piracy protections

So we moved from the US to Scandinavia, so our days are MUCH shorter than they were.

My wife brought up a nice point that's brought me comfort in our just after 3pm sunsets.

We get long nights, and nights are fun! More time for the bar with friends, slow deliberate cooking at home, video games, hanging inside. And those are some of the things I like. It does feel fun to have the days getting longer for sure, but it's not like a good and a bad season, just different seasons
