You can at least tell the Chinese characters are different for the sticky rice row?

Ginger, but the root. Souless gingers are not suitable for cooking. I use glass jars for spices. Need labels to tell one powder from another.If baby powder is made from babies, what do they make ginger powder from?

unpacked chest freezer, plug it in, nothing. plug something else in, nothing. for some reason there is a socket without power. had to move a bunch of other things to relocate freezer to where there is power.
I have never plugged in anything in that socket in the 9 years I have lived here.

unlikely, this is the basement. And there were no switches nearby. I don't have time to figure it out, easier to move the freezer lol.
It's quite amusing,now that I have my PC rebuilt with an AMD Ryzen 3700X 8-core,16-thread CPU...
(reusing my 1 TB Samsung 960 Evo)
That the Dell PC I use at work(it's a Core i5-8500,with I think 8 GB of RAM),and more than likely a hybrid hard drive...feels so slow.
In short...universities are cheap with the PCs they buy in bulk.

It amazes me how outdated school/work computers can be, even new ones. When we got our new computers a few years ago, they were i5s with get this, 4GB of ram and regular HDD. Why, just why? 8GB should be absolute bare minimum these days, and even that is pushing it. 16GB should be standard really. SSDs should be standard too, but instead they upsell you on it even though a SSD basically cost's the same now days if not going high capacity. We managed to get 12GB in our machines after some fighting, and IT ordering the wrong kind a couple times first. (can't blame them too much, OEM built PCs are a bitch to source ram for) We are getting "upgraded" again soon, which means we will need to plea for more ram again as they will probably come with either 4GB or MAYBE 8GB.
In college we had this room we called the P2 room. They were Pentium 2's and they were loud. When we got in and turned them on you could hear all the hard drives, probably from like 1990, making so much racket as it struggles to load windows. Teacher would give a lecture and by the time he was done the computers were mostly ready. The next year we got a new lab with Pentium 4's though, that was a nice upgrade and think at the time those were considered good. 2005ish era.

Listened to a podcast I subscribe to. It had a guest from another podcast, and I remember thinking 'that sounds interesting, I should subscribe to that one'. Now can't remember what the podcast I wanted to subscribe to was, nor can I remember what the podcast I listened to that mentioned it was. Something to do with politics and history, is all I can remember.
A related problem is that I have a backlog of podcasts to listen to that puts my Steam games backlog to shame. I doubt I have enough time left in my life to listen to them all, yet somehow it bugs me that 'maybe I'll never find the time to learn about the Memphis Sanitation workers strike of 1968'.

Pooch ate a good part of a jalapeño. He was cool for a few seconds then spit up some liquid. Kept hacking, I gave him some cream cheese to help out but sort of forced him at first because he was looking at me like “Human! I’m dying here”
Happened a few years ago with a different pepper. I remember him being hesitant to poop.
I predict tonight’s walk taking a loooooong time.

That has to be the most ridiculous bounce-around I've seen! LOL...
Actually came here to post that I think the UPS live-tracker online was trolling me today...was waiting for brown to deliver my coffee beans from Amazon...that stupid busted ass tracker showed the truck a block from my house 3 or 4 times, then it would move away...then get close...rinse, repeat...I just wanted my damn coffee
