Try living in the US; you’ll change your tune. Piss boiled; take your upvote.

You can actually use it to make your own beyond-style burgers and sausages. That recipe didn’t work super well for me, so I developed my own which I can post if you’re interested.

TVP is useful anywhere you’d normally use ground meat, such as in chili, but adding a binder, as above, makes it useful for applications like sausage rolls, keema naan, etc.

You can also get TVP in large chunks or slices. For this stuff, I like to hydrate in stock with a little vinegar to get rid of that off-taste some TVP has, then squeeze out the moisture and sear in a large amount of fat. Prepared in this way, it is almost indistinguishable from meat.

You can also fry small, unhydrated TVP crumbles in oil and season with salt, MSG, and liquid smoke to make your own fake bacon bits. I like to use them on baked potatoes.

I’d start with Kropotkin’s “The Conquest of Bread” followed by Gelderloos’ “Anarchy Works.” Kropotkin explains the theory behind why libertarian socialism / anarchist communism is a better, more fair way to structure society, while exhaustively addressing common objections. Gelderloos writes from a modern perspective while offering examples of non-hierarchal human organization throughout history. For those who (somehow) read these and remain convinced that the idea is utopian, I’d recommend Kropotkin’s essay “Are We Good Enough,” and his principal scientific work: “Mutual Aid: A Factor of Evolution” which offers a compelling counter-argument to the ‘dog eat dog’ conclusion drawn by many from Darwin’s theory of evolution by positing that cooperation is sustained in humans and animals over time through natural selection.

For a quick and dirty intro to the basic idea of what classical anarchism is: “An Anarchist Program” - Errico Malatesta.

Anarchism is a line of political thought that goes back for well over a century, with many branches and differing opinions; like any group, libertarian socialists are not a monolith. Anarchism, including anarchist communism, is a response not only to capitalism, but to other branches of leftist thought: while communist revolutions were taking place around the world, anarchists were there alongside them, critiquing the practices that continue to be critiqued today concerning communist projects with their focus on challenging power and unnecessary hierarchy: who has power over who, why, and is it strictly necessary? As someone once said: “Freedom without equality is the jungle. Equality without freedom is prison. I want neither the jungle nor prison.” That is what classical anarchist thought brings to the table: it examines how society can be structured while providing both freedom and equality in a way that neither capitalist thinking nor other leftist schools of thought adequately address.

So you aren’t at all interested in understanding my positions, got it. Have a good day.

are you also against private grocery stores?

I am, yes.

I have zero interest in spending this beautiful Friday morning arguing, so I’m not going to, but if you would like some reading recommendations to understand my political positions on these sorts of things, let me know and I’d be happy to provide them.

I’m making a joke in poor taste to express my disdain for people who commodify human necessities for profit.

I would try searching “kio” in your package manager.

What distro are you on? Some don’t install all available KIO workers and you’ll have to install them yourself.

Is this something that is likely to improve going forward?

Like any FLOSS project, things tend to happen when programmers decide to solve a problem for themselves. If you don’t the the skills to do this, you could always bring it up on the KDE forum under the “brainstorming” category, submit a feature request on the KDE bug tracker, or sponsor a developer to perform the work.

Seconding Navidrome. I stream from my Navidrome server to my phone, and then via DLNA from my phone to my HiFiBerry / stereo system. It’s very nice.

Maybe not - I’ve heard those things can get really hot inside like a greenhouse

I thought you could only select from a pre-defined list of addons in Firefox mobile?

I quite like Lexica.

I find the yunohost mailserver pretty good ootb

Before the last word.

What’s a beginner to do

Well that’s just it; Endeavour is not a beginner distro. It’s not designed to be. Endeavour is Arch with a graphical installer and some modest quality of life improvements for users who are otherwise willing to trawl through the Arch wiki for answers. The welcome app really just seems to be there so that you don’t have to memorize all the commands or set up aliases, etc, if you don’t want to.

So when you ask “am I supposed to X,” the answer is that there really isn’t a set-in-stone workflow to accomplish anything on EOS or Arch; what you’re supposed to do is read the manual, so to speak, and decide for yourself how you want to go about things.

Unlike some other Arch based distros like BlendOS and Manjaro, Endeavour is still very much a DIY distro.

Don’t use GUI package managers, but here, have some GUI package managers.

What GUI package managers are you referring to? EOS doesn’t supply any.

AFAICT they made something more confusing than Arch, not less.

If I’m not mistaken, this is all stuff you should also be doing on Arch. The single difference is that EOS provides a button in their “Welcome” app that will helpfully run a command for you in a terminal for some of these tasks.

What is a vehicle like that even for?
