... and if you aren't transporting it over long distances... you don't need to pasteurize milk for immediate use.
When using for your own consumption and not for resale, you don't need to completely milk out a lactating animal and figure out what to do with the milk. You take what you need and leave the rest for the nursing animals.
Yeah I don't have eggs for dough to make the pie crust,
Pretty sure biscuit recipes don't use egg, just make a drop biscuit recipe and roll/pat the dough until it gets stretched out enough to slap over the top of the pie.
Eat ramen noodles? Toss in a small handful of peas.
Stir fry can always use peas.
You can use peas in pretty much any "patty": Making lentil burgers? Add a handful of peas. Make some sticky rice, mix in some peas, make balls of the mixture and smash them flat on a hot well oiled skillet.
Gotta let it sit for a bit. Then you can drink it or fuel a car with it.
A dude at work as been raving about this game over the last few months.
Wheels should be bigger so they can still move when getting flipped over. If these things move fast (or fastish, like 15~25 mph) hitting a bump or a dip will cause them to flip.
Opposing force attack drones have a new priority on where to attack an IFV now. Don't worry about the turret or engine compartment, hit the side covered in AT mines.
It is unlikely these are going to be all that useful "swarming" but very useful as an ambusher. Drop them at a potential ambush site and let them wait. But then you need to have the operator vehicle nearby, which is going to make it very obvious to any forces that have eyes in the sky that something dodgy is going on. Unless these are controlled remotely from far away, which not only has issues with signal jamming but commands being delayed thorough whatever long distance communication system is being used... which is going to be really important with a ground based weapon trying to maneuver on rough terrain toward a target that is likely to be moving to target a vehivle's tread/road wheel/road arm/main sprocket to at least get a mobility kill.
If an IFV is close enough to be actively engaging armor it won't have time to drop these. They'll have to be dropped and manually driven in alongside the IFV's well behind the expected battlefront. If the IFV gets ambushed, it won't have time to drop these.
If these ground drones only have optical cameras, smoke or kicking up a dust cloud would make them pretty ineffective. Thermals might be somewhat useful but its going to be interesting to see how many Friendly-Fire incidents happen in sustained combat with lots of vehicles all over the place.
More shit that needs to be constantly PMCS'd in the field.

My promotional plan NordVPN service is about due for renewal.
I was wondering if any tech support hexbears had any suggestions. The basic plan for Nord is going to run about 150$ US at its full price.
So far I've stumbled across some favorable mentions of Mullvad and the price seems better at about 60$ a year. I'm going to assume that all VPN services are going to make it difficult to seed anything, but if there still some around that dont block all the porta I would like to know more.
Mostly i just fart around on the hexbear at home or with my cell phone. I'm not serious about torrenting but there are things I'm interested in and I've notived are hard to find and don't have many seeds, wouldn't mind helping out without having to figure out how to set up a whole other server to do the thing.
Edit:
Survey says!
-AirVPN
So far its been okay. Bit of a slog getting it on my phone but seems to work okay.
Also a bit of a slog getting things set up to actually seed the occassional thing but that's just because I know about 25% of what I think I know.
Actually got one of those online coupon things to knock a few bucks off as well.
Thanks everbody, you're all swell. 
So, in my recent transition from an ancient Windows OS to a Linux distribution I installed Transmission for torrenting. I had a decent experience as a user who isn't super nerdy about this stuff with the Windows version I was using.
Using it with Linux has been similarly easy but for one thing. When trying to seed torrents, after about 10ish minutes, the torrents in the list will turn red and with the word "Stalled". I can pause and restart the seeding and it clears the "Stalled" from the item on the list but it will come back after a short while.
This never happened when I was using the Windows version and I haven't been able to find an answer about what this is supposed to mean in this context online.
Anybody have any ideas what this means and what I should do to fix this if its a problem on my end?
Edit: NordVPN is blocking the ports. Weird thing is, earlier this year before switching this PC to Linux, my ancient Windows OS was running Transmission and leeching/seeding just fine through NordVPN. 
For whatever reason my brain has decided to think about this.
VLC will record the Desktop and Space Rangers but not Transformers: Devastation Though the game screen it captures for is a different size than what is captured with the Desktop while either game is running. Seeing what happens when Transformers runs results in a white screen being recorded while the game window is in focus.
My ancient Radeon graphics card and Windows 7 operating system (don't at me Linux folks, I know I know) has some screen recording stuff build into it. Will record the Desktop just fine, records only a black screen while the game is running and its window is focused for one game but records the other game just fine and at an appropriate size.
For curiosity's sake what would I be looking for as reasons or solutions to this?
Edit:
Running everything as Administrator seems to help in OBS. Who knew? 
OBS seems to play nice with Transformers: Devastation now, lets me draw the bounding box in the Game Source instead of trying to use the Display source.
Still haven't figured out why OBS is being wonky with Space Rangers not recording in "Game Source" but did get a lead on why the size is wonky in the recording of "Display Source". The max resolution for the CD version (the one I've got) is 1024x768 and my monitor is 1920x1080. (Unsure why there's a difference between what I see playing the game and what the software is recording.) And the only resolution patch I've found doesn't work on the CD version... :whomp-whomp:
... but I finally did it.
For whatever silly reason, I decided to play the 2005 version of Space Rangers ( a kinda difficult game on its easy mode) on its hardest difficulty setting and after a handful of bad starts and one very loooonnnng good run I managed to finish.
To celebrate I will use this emoji

And as penance I will start reading Capital Volume 1 as linked by comrade Vampire in their "get in nerds we're reading all volumes of Capital" reading group.
