Leí hace tiempo que un académico marxista italiano se había puesto a investigar el origen de la "cocina tradicional italiana" y había descubierto que buena parte de sus platos eran:
a) mucho más recientes de lo que la gente piensa y/o
b) su origen no estaba en Italia.
La prensa le había apodado "el hombre más odiado en Italia".

Two principles to follow when it comes to getting a politician to do something they don't want to do.
1) "Enough pressure" is the point at which doing the thing is less worse than continuing to not do it.
2) Everything is impossible until the moment that it becomes inevitable.

Yet another example of a 'Smart device' company deciding that - No. You Don't actually Own The Thing.

There is a very funny (well it used to be funny) chapter in one of his books where he gets in an argument with the door to his apartment which won't let him out since he hasn't paid for it. I think he also has to argue with the fridge.

Unfortunately.
Will electronic connected doors threaten people they will unlock if you don't pay the new monthly fee?
We already have someone sitting in the dark because of Futurehome.

@futurebird when we moved into our current house, I put a smart lock on a door that goes to the garage because I figured it would be useful to be able to let contractors in, or neighbors if something happened while we were traveling, etc.
The one non-negotiable was that the lock had to be fully mechanically functional. Keyhole on the front and thumb turn inside, both working with or without power. It's amazing how many didn't meet that very basic criteria!
@futurebird He also had a bit in a novel from the late 60s in which people had access to a global computer network, but used it to play games while they were supposed to be working.
(I wish I could send a message back in time, to tell him that I was chatting about his book with strangers on a global computer network when I was supposed to be working.)
@futurebird Ubik iirc... yes, seemed very funny at the time - and I liked the way the occupant had to wait for a visitor to call to then lend them (again) the cash to open the front door!
As I say... at the time...
@futurebird Been hoping writers will stop writing warning dystopian futures and start writing like...soap operas set in utopian futures.
Folks'll still have people issues if and when the world is better. Let's just show that. Show the world being great, and then have like..whatever human interest set on that backdrop to tell the story.
Or just do like..ted lasso stuff, but in the future, where it's all good people and sometimes people make mistakes and there's competition to have
@futurebird @GeePawHill Recently redid /Dr. Bloodmoney, or How We Got Along After the Bomb/. Of Dick futures, that one’s OK, verging on “cozy.”

in reply to Shine McShine 🐌 • • •La cosa es que buena parte de lo que todes conocemos como "platos tradicionales italianos" eran en realidad platos estadounidenses. Cuando a finales del siglo XIX se produjo una migración masiva de italianos a EEUU muchos acabaron formando comunidades allí, pero formadas por italianos de todas partes de Italia. Así, cuando se pusieron a cocinar, se mezclaban ingredientes que eran típicos del sur, por ejemplo, con ingredientes típicos del norte, y salían cosas nuevas.
Años después, cuando las tropas aliadas ocuparon Italia, los descendientes italoanericanos volvieron al país e introdujeron estos platos, que pasaron a ser parte de la "cocina tradicional italiana".

in reply to Shine McShine 🐌 • • •En otros casos resultaba que los platos considerados "tradicionales" eran mucho más recientes; la panna cotta, por ejemplo, no apareció hasta los años 60 del siglo pasado.
Entonces por qué ese interés en presentar esos platos que ni eran tradicionales ni italianos como "cocina tradicional italiana"? Porque la comida es parte de la cultura y haciendo esto se creaba un mito que ayudaba a reforzar el nacionalismo italiano.
Porque, amigues, TODO es política. También la comida.
