If any of the above bothers you, probably best to unfollow me.
Popped in to ASDA (not my usual haunt) and was pleasantly surprised by their range of vegan foods.
This, in particular, tastes *just like* cheap egg mayo sandwich filling. And a pretty similar texture.
Goes to show how much food enjoyment is merely flavouring.

hey can anyone out there help me find critical/theoretical writing on hardware modding? (especially on video game hardware, but any kind of consumer modification of industrially-manufactured products would work)
I know that (e.g.) Stephanie Boluk and Patrick Lemieux have studied video game modding from a software perspective, but I don't know anyone studying hardware mods in particular.
(doesn't need to be "academic," just looking for stuff beyond tutorials and enthusiast press)
(boosts ok!)

Review: Kaico Xbox HMDI Cable + Optical https://shkspr.mobi/blog/2022/07/review-kaico-xbox-hmdi-cable-optical/
Found an XSS on a fairly big site.
The people running it didn't respond to my contact requests.
Found the developer and told them.
They fixed it. I asked if there was a bug bounty and got this charming reply.
I wasn't expecting riches, but a "thank you" would have been nice!
