I like them with enough salt and pepper and a gravy appropriate for the main dish...white for white meats and brown for red meats. Besides making a great side dish, they also make copious amounts of methane.

I'd rather think about potato chips and Advanced Classical Mechanics.

skin on, baby red mashed potatoes with garlic, horseradish and a smidge of steak seasoning when you add the cream and butter.
Otherwise you can keep them.

I think they'd become an MP next month if they were on the ballot paper.
(UK specific...)

In terms of intelligence, your average potato would outthink an MP.

The only reason to eat a starch is to transfer something else to your mouth. Really, does anyone eat a starch plain? And if so, why, oh why would you?
* mashed potatoes => gravy
* bread => butter and/or jam/jelly
* pancakes => butter and/or syrup and/or fruit topping
* baked potato => sour cream or loaded
* sweet potato => sour cream or sugar (candied yams) [and yes, I know yams and sweet potatoes are 2 different plants]
* taco/burrito => all the fillings
* rice => butter, chili, or whatever else you put in it.

Samsung or Android (don't know which) has idiots at the helm.
My phone moved a spam message to the bin and blocked the sender for me.
Unfortunately it also notify-beeped my phone.
Now why in the hell would I want to be harassed by that? It's just spam. Just bin it since you didn't show me what it said anyway, and don't annoy me with it - isn't that the point? Who designs this software?

My watch sends me notifications when I stand up for a pee: "Oh good, you're active again!"

That watch would quickly find itself victim of a rapid, unscheduled disassembly.

Look out for the Pavlov training…. You may not be able to “perform” if you are not wearing the watch!

and this is the reason I turn off almost all notifications on my phone. Only herself and my kidlets when calling or messaging me get to have it buzz or beep. Otherwise I am ruthless in turning all notifications off.
To err is human to really elephant it up you need a computer

I have developed a Pavlovian/Tourette's reaction to ringtones/notifications from my device followed by 'now what?!!'

I thought about that but how would I ever know without actually checking the spam call? like answering it, or calling it back? It's obv someone I don't know or they'd be in my contacts, and if i don't know a number I don't answer.
Edit: I should add, I looked at it seems samsung does not allow you to turn it off

I have a Pixel, so none of Samsung's overlay on Android. It has a way of viewing all spam text messages, voicemails, and caller id info. Then I can mark it "not spam" if I so choose.
For text messages, I click on my Google icon in the top right corner. I have options to view Archived, view Spam & Blocked, mark all as read, etc.

Both my watch and phone seem to beep excessively and I've learned just to ignore both. I can't be bothered to go through and disable everything.
The only alerts I pay attention to are text alerts on my work number (phone is dual sim) and ideally I'd filter those to just the work monitor app and my bank, but it seems you can only set a specific alert for texts from numbers in your contact list and you can't add a display id to your contacts.

Mostly Samsung but the Android programmer just does what Samsung wants
REALITY you own a device that does what it wants Case in point
I have a Samsung A23 5g it has a button named Device Care
It will let me "Clean Now" to clear apps not used recently
For how long you ASK about 30 min
In 30 min the Apps are back sucking on the memory tit
I am done with retailers that demand a phone number and e-mail address
I explain I do not have a computer and NO PHONE
If I really want the item I give them and email from a long gone ISP
and as for the phone number 202-456-1111 it is the White House

So, is it just me or does Microsoft Loop look like a gound up re-work of OneNote? Microsoft Loop: Collaborative App | Microsoft 365[^]
Many of the core facilities of Loop were already available (admittedly by somewhat dubious pathways) in OneNote (real-time collaboration, embedding of documents and web pages, live sketching/writing sharing etc) albeit in a much 'clunkier' UI.
However, with a little investment, OneNote could IMHO have become a fantastic real-time collaboration tool without the need to be permanently on-line (something that is only possible on a small percentage of the world's surface despite what MS, Governemnts, telcos etc tell you) -improved handwriting tools and better recognition, plus the ability to properly embed/edit PDFs would have got it very close to the Loop feature-set, adding a code window linked to git, VS (locally hosted or on-line) or other dev environments would have got it the rest of the way.
I did try to log in to the discussion forum provided (which had no comments when I tried), but I got an 'unknown error', all of which rather sums up the whole mess of Teams/OneNote/Loop/Sharepoint etc - tools which all seem to provide lots of advantages if you can get them to work, but only seem to work in certain very tightly specified environments that most smaller orgs etc do not, and cannot, run cost-effectively.
I have relied on OneNote almost since it first came out (Desktop not APP version) but recently, after extensive research for something with a better feature set re handwriting/PDFs etc) have switched to Nebo Nebo[^] , which does everything and more that OneNote did, across multiple platforms, is still being actively developed, and still allows for off-line working and later sync. THe only drawback for me really is the 'app'-like UI, but I can live with that...
I'd be interested in hearing what you think!
