    Shinjuku JHT love hotel availability charts

    That is probably the difference a browser with a user agent vs a node JS script making generic http get requests without a user agent. I should probably send a fake Chrome/Firefox user agent request just to satisfy those needs. Could also CSRF cookie related since I am not storing cookies. I...

    Shinjuku JHT love hotel availability charts

    I wouldn't run it every second LOL. I'd have it on cron to run ever 15 minutes, but there are 7 hotels. I tried 1, 3, 5 second intervals and I had at least one of the 7 fail over time, 10 seconds seemed to be the happy place. I'd probably set it higher than 10, probably 30 or even 60...

    A Japanese pizza mystery

    Also, all cheese is "processed". First, the cream is cooked, then and acid is added to make curds, and then depending on the kind of cheese you want to make you do something else to it. Cheese is a processed food product. Cheese wouldn't exist if we didn't' process the cream to get it.

    A Japanese pizza mystery

    The point I am trying to make is it doesn't specify what KIND of cheese it is, there are plenty of cheese that can be labelled "natural". However when the label on the front just says "Natural Cheese" there is no way of knowing what actual kind of natural cheese it is.

    A Japanese pizza mystery

    OK fine, That still tells me fuck all about what actual kind of cheese it is. Is it cheddar? Pepper jack? it's advertised as Pizza cheese, but it sure the hell isn't mozzarella of any kind. There are hundreds of kinds of shreddable cheese out there. Branding it as "natural cheese" means...

    A Japanese pizza mystery

    I am not talking about the "Single" wrapped cheese. I am talking about the grated cheese in the plastic bags marketed as "Natural Cheese". I know what "American Cheese" is. Not all "American Cheese" is highly processed with additives. Yes the Kraft singles and similar are, but there is plenty...

    A Japanese pizza mystery

    I make my own. I'm glad I found low moisture mozzarella near my house, but this "natural cheese" they sell as "pizza cheese" has to go... What the fuck is "natural cheese" anyway

    I live fairly close to Ikea, gas is about $2, tolls are $2, delivery was significantly more than that. But in general, I agree.

    Daily WHO Reports for the Coronavirus Outbreak (Link)

    I went to Ikea this weekend. I had looked for what I wanted online and knew exactly what I wanted, so my plan was to bypass the maze, buy what I needed and leave. I was not prepared for the amount of stupidity going on there. Ikea was packed. I don't understand the ignorance of people going...
