soggy bread on what was supposed to be a perfect Italian-mix sub or soggy bacon.
I can forgive the soggy bread, I think, but I can't forgive someone who cooks up soggy bacon. The horror.

Soggy bread is far worst, it may ruin the taste of some perfect prosciutto crudo (which I very much prefer to bacon).

Burn any heretic just don't burn the pizza.
Speaking of ham and bacon now I have a craving for Speck (the Italian one) and Brie... and a rising hunger.

Try adding walnuts ... it could be even better

Or sun dried tomatoes - Bacon, a good runny Brie, and sun dried tomatoes makes a very pleasant summer lunch.

Oh yes, I often make it during summer - along with some mushrooms and bread. Delightful!

I live in Piedmont hills, surrounded by walnuts and hazelnut trees - I almost take them for granted 
Brie or Camembert or delicate Gorgonzola with walnuts is something divine

Just out of curiosity: what was supposed to be thr perfect Italian-mix?

Well here in the States, where some of us don't know any better....
Genoa Salami (lots of this for me), spicy pepperoni, provolone, oil and vinegar. I like sliced pepperoncinis on mine, with shredded lettuce and thin sliced onion. If i have the option to add prosciutto, i will.
As for bread, a seasoned sub roll with Asiago cheese on it is nice, but fresh sub roll will do, of course.
Edit: forgot the bacon. If the deli has crisp bacon, I will add this as well.

I see you're pretty fond of Italian cuisine and I totally agree that this is a good Italian mix. I often made similar mixes, given that I prefer avoiding spicy pepperonis when I have good salami or asiago - covering their taste is criminal!

Seems these days if you want your software to talk to the outside world, all you have to work with is the virual USB<->Serial and USB<->Parallel devices. Especially in laptops. Someone in their wisdom thought that these devices are a suitable replacement for "real" ports. (ie UARTS and parallel i/o chips). You have to rely on the bulky overhead and often buggy device divers. In reality they lack performace and versatility.
Bring back the serial port. Anyone with me!

That's why you should dump serial devices altogether.

In contrary to a handful of hardware registers in a UART or PIO. I could write drivers for them while sleeping (and wake up in the morning, looking for the elves who did this).

As anybody who wanted a faster floppy drive on a C64 or Atari 400/800 would have been able to tell us. Why should the hardware guys stop making the same mistakes all over again when the software guys also keep bringing back yesterday's mistakes?

Never thought of that as I do not work with the hardware that much any more. Once wrote a program using the RS232 port to take data. And since they did not need as many people to run the tests, they fired me.

9 pin D-type all the way! Also a proper parrelle port, with those two I could control the planet....

I have programmed RS-232 serial and parallel ports since the DOS 3.3 days (remember hooking the UART interrupts in DOS?). Frankly, with all the embedded systems I have worked with in the last 25 years, I can't say as though I miss having a dedicated serial or parallel port on my PCs or laptops.
I have had only 1 case where the RS-232 cable driver was buggy and caused problems for my system, but using an older version of the same driver ended up working just fine.
If you get a USB-RS232 cable, most of them use either the Prolific or FTDI driver. It is a better idea to go to Prolific's/FTDI's website and get the driver from there. The ones that come on the CDs provided with the cables generally are old and not very good.
So for me, no.

1 USB port = about 2.4 micrograms.
1 parallel printer port = about a kilo and a half.
Which do you want on your tablet?

100% Agree. I work in Machine Automation, and we constantly have to work with factory-grade devices like printers and servos and even robots that still use serial communications, and you have to buy two or three of those darn USB<->Serial adapters before you find one that works.
