BASED FEDI COOKAN NUMBER I FORGET: PICKLED WATAMELONS
Here's how to make my pickled watermelon, it's very tasty and refreshing! One small watermelon makes four liters worth of pickles, so get properly sized mason jars appropriately.
Watermelon
Carrots
Garlic
Dill
Salt
Water
Peel the watermelon and cut it into smaller pieces. You'll want to keep the white of the watermelon with about a centimeter of red at most.
Peel the carrots and cut them into small bits. Prepare the garlic cloves and cut them each in half. There should be a whole garlic's worth of cloves per four liters of pickles.
Clean your mason jar and start stuffing it with pieces of melon. Every third of the way, put some carrots and garlic at the 1/3rd and 2/3rd marks of the container.
When the top of the container is reached, stuff some dill at the top of the jar. When you open the jar you should only see dill at the top.
Add salt and water to the jar at a ratio of one teaspoon of salt per cup of water. (Note: For a 1L mason jar, you'll wind up using two cups of water.)
Close the jar and shake it a bit. Transfer to a cool place like the basement to ferment.
For five days, once a day aerate the pickles by pouring out the water into a separate container and pouring it back into the mason jar three times. (Note: the dill will serve as a good filter to prevent melon, garlic or dill coming out of the jar as you empty the water)
After the five days are up, your pickles should be ready! Extra days pickling won't hurt though. You can then continue storing them in a cool place or the fridge. Enjoy them!

I agree that PC is better than console and that consoles are basically dead at this point, but I fucking hate the culture behind the "PC Master Race" with a passion.
Why? Because they are the most entitled, spoiled, rotten pieces of shit in the gaming community. They are like those fast-food customers who place the most ridiculous special orders, or the upper middle class to rich people who can only watch movies in a home theater set-up. They won't play a game unless they can play it on max settings with the most perfect frame-rate.
This is also one of the many factors that is preventing the "year of the Linux desktop". Even if they game already has a Linux port that is perfectly playable, I know a lot of people who out-right refuse to play on Linux because "the game runs better on Windows" (and by "better" they mean only a slight framerate increase). Let's see if that attitude still stands when Windows goes full SaaS and requires you to be micro-chipped in order to activate it.
I could go on. I also don't like their obsession with RGB lighting on everything and making their computers look like they were designed by aliens. How are you supposed to sleep at night if you are someone who keeps their computer in their bedroom?
I've been PC gaming since I started gaming, and I have always been perfectly content with a mid-ranged PC or even a toaster if I'm just sticking with indies and emulators. No RGB lights, no fancy keyboards or mice, no curved monitors. I really wouldn't have it any other way outside the inability to emulate 7th gen games.
