OK, hear me out: Current experiments seem to be producing skin-based(pressure or vibration) remote object detection for blind people. If it works, lets make them superhuman by plugging their devices into things like car radar systems, active radar sets, or topographic satellite data!
The man in charge of all the apparati of power in the US never finished a construction on time *or* paid his subcontractors the full amount agreed to. What could possibly go wrong?
Đe English language once had an alphabet đat actually represented its sounds. It's past time we fix this. I propose the letter Đorn ("Thorn", Đ, đ) as the first back-substitution.

I occasionally get asked about my moniker (nick). If you are familiar with Latin then you already know that Unus Nemo means no one. Though that is applicable my moniker is multi-faceted. Meaning there are several reasons that I chose this moniker to name myself. As opposed to my given name which I was labeled with at birth.
In Latin unus nemo is a phrase that means no one. Though, there is more to my moniker than just accepting that I am no one. Unus means one and nemo means nobody and both individual words are as meaningful to me as the phrase. I am One meaning that I am self-fulfilling and require no other components to be me. The influences of others and their behavior do not depict or control who I am. I am Nobody because in the universe I have a very finite time of existence and when I am gone, I am.

First and foremost I consider myself to be a humanitarian as I have a great appreciation for humanity, if not so much for our societies current evolution. I am a software architect, developer, poet, mathematician and much more. I have a profound love of life and I believe that humanities purpose is to learn to enjoy it. After all if you fail to enjoy your life what else matters? You have failed. I am labeled an atheist as I do not believe in a god that is in a relationship with its creation nor that there is a god at all. I have been strongly influenced, from a philosophical point not a spiritual point, by secular Buddhism. I do not believe in anything spiritual. I believe their are those things we know. Those things we are still learning about and things we know nothing about yet. There is no room in my ideology for the concept of natural and supernatural. In my belief everything is natural that fits into one of the categories I previously mentioned. Like everyone, I have opinions. Unlike most it is not important to me that you value my opinions. My reality is not yours and vice versa. We did not live through the same environmental conditions and learn our views (opinions) of them together and come to a consensus or agreement of any kind. It is not that I do not value your opinion. It is just not mine, as in it does not belong to me. It belongs to you and is a part of your ideology. That does not mean it is not valuable. It just has no metric in my life. Likewise I understand that the same rational applies to my own opinion. Hence my not feeling a need to have people agree with my opinions (view, ideology).
Well that is very least I can describe who I am. Of course I could break it down even further and get into even more details. Though I suspect no one has even read this far 😉. So why continue? Take care of who you are and enjoy your life!
The other day at work a friend offered me some turkey necks, I had never had turkey necks before so I gave them a try. They were delicious so I decided to give them a try at home. When I bought my camper it had a Instant Pot left in it from the previous owners. So I decided that would suffice as a cooking apparatus 😉. At first I was going to slow cook them, but my tummy said "to hell you are!". So I decided to pressure cook them. Having grown up, for at least part of my life, on a farm I am familiar with pressure cookers. I am also aware of how dangerous they can be if not used properly. So I did some internet searches on cooking turkey necks in an Instant Pot set on pressure cooking. Good thing I did, I had way to much food and liquid in the pot. I also downloaded the user manual and read it for my education on using the product correctly.

Turkey Necks & Pig Tails
The other day at work a friend offered me some turkey necks, I had never had turkey necks before so I gave them a try. They were delicious so I decided to give them a try at home. When I bought my camper it had a Instant Pot left in it from the previous owners. So I decided that would suffice as a cooking apparatus 😉. At first I was going to slow cook them, but my tummy said "to hell you are!". So I decided to pressure cook them. Having grown up, for at least part of my life, on a farm I am familiar with pressure cookers. I am also aware of how dangerous they can be if not used properly. So I did some internet searches on cooking turkey necks in an Instant Pot set on pressure cooking. Good thing I did, I had way to much food and liquid in the pot. I also downloaded the user manual and read it for my education on using the product correctly.
I bought around 6 lbs ( 2.72 kg) of turkey necks and around 2 lbs (.91 kg) of pigtails. My idea was to add additional fat via the pigtails. I also added around 4 oz (133 g) of bacon. Personally, next time I will just use the bacon. I was not impressed by the contribution of the flavor from the pigtails. They would most likely be good in greens or cabbages, but not so much with turkey necks in my opinion. My selection of turkey necks was mostly the large base of the neck cuts and about 2 lbs (.91 kg) regular necks. That worked out well. I called a friend to ask how they season their turkey necks though they were not available. So I did an internet search. I used what is the norm (apparently) salt, pepper, sage, garlic powder, dehydrate chopped onion and paprika. I also decided to add bay leaf which was a good call in my opinion. They came out delicious though I immediately regretted adding the pig tails. It did not completely ruin the dish though I feel it would have been better without them.
So, I learned how to operate my Instant pot, also ordered some add-ons so I can start making my own yogurt and steam food. I also made my first batch of Turkey Necks which was pretty much a success. My ingredient list was: 6 lbs (2.72 kg) turkey necks 2 lbs (.91 kg) pig tails 4 oz (133g) bacon 2 tbs (30 g) sage 2 tbs (30 g) garlic powder 2 tbs (30 g) chopped onion (dehydrated) 2 tsp (10 g) paprika 2 tsp (10 g) salt (pink Himalayan fine) 2 tsp (10 g) black pepper 3 leaves bay leaf 3 cups (709.77 ml) water
I adjusted the water here to account for the fact that I used to much as I was preparing to slow cook them. I should have reduced my water to around 3 cups (709.77 ml). The only negative effect this had was to take longer for my Instant Pot to come to pressure as it had more liquid to heat. I could have likely halved my preheating time if I had used half the water I did. Also note that I cooked this in two batches as it was way to much ingredient to cook in one. I cooked them for 50 minutes a batch (plus preheating time). With the Instant Pot set on pressure cook, low setting, pressure setting high.
