When I was 20 years older I used to inhale vapor of devil's lettuce often, and after some serious cases of munchies I was able to produce some horrendous crap, and even then, with infamous Dutch toilet bowls, three flushes was the worst one.

It took years from Nazi takeover in 1933 to annexation of Austria and part of Czechoslovakia in 1938 to full blown war in Europe in 1939. In first years of their rules it was all about building strong business and national pride and burning books and beating socialists and persecuting transsexuals.

We could, but it was deleted by DOGE to reduce storage costs.

When I lived in Warsaw tap water tasted like public swimming pool water after boiling old shoe for an hour.

Piri-piri sauce

Hotness is fine, but I couldn't yet find one with the right consistency (most of them have some thickeners, as they are, well, sauces), and right flavor profile – I'm considering trying to make my own batch of either salt-macerated or fermented birdseye chilli sauce without any extra additives and mix with barrel aged Italian white wine vinegar, this should give a similar vibes.

Fortunately, I'm using this particular sauce mostly in cocktails every now and then, so I'm not in a hurry.

Nah, I'm good :) I don't need to touch anything like that those days, days of anything resembling big data are gone for me. But I know of people who need – and who work in dark basements of „Big 4” with terabytes worth of Excel sheets passed down through the generations of data scientists. No one will ever touch those workbooks, as they make the world go round, and last person that understood how it works retired 15 years ago. These setups will survive humanity, and will be estimating resource and energy prices on the international markets long after we're gone and only entities dealing in resources will be rats and roaches.

I was using Microsoft Word on and off since 6.0 (shipped with Office 4.0), and no version of Microsoft Word was formatting your documents in the same way that the other versions did, and the same version liked to break things on different version of Windows, and sometimes ever on the same version of Windows on the other computer, because locale settings were different.

That being said, Word is a toy that can be replaced with just basically any word processing software (unless you need multiplayer editing from the Sharepoint), it's the Excel which is the true strength of MS Office, and unfortunately it's irreplaceable by anything that isn't purpose-built database processing software.

Excel doesn't do anything very well, but it can do everything that the twisted minds of the upper management can imagine, and in the hands of person experienced enough and mad enough (and you will become mad enough after couple years of VBA) the possibilities are endless.

LibreOffice Calc on the other hand is limited to 1024 columns, which is a hard limit I hit more than once, and external database integrations are real PITA.

Sadly, there is probably none that can be reliably sources, there is no barrel-aged vinegar based mild hot sauce similar to Tabasco, as everyone was trying to develop their unique extra-hot blend.

There are plenty of good hot sauces imported from Asia (Thai Sriracha, Indonesian Sambal Oelek [for me the best is windmill brand]), many interesting (and hot AF) European bigger brands (I like Polish Roleski, they have nice hot sauce range) and local small-batch craft brands, but sadly no direct Tabasco replacement, as there's no direct bourbon replacement – there are tens of thousands of interesting flavors across the world, so I can live with that for a while.
