Robinson, known for his roles in Disney Channel films and “Everything, Everything,” brought Simon to life alongside other actors and actresses with background on LGBT movies and TV shows such as Katherine Langford as Leah, Tony Hale as Mr. In the film, Simon, portrayed by Nick Robinson, is still the same socially awkward and easy to love character as he is in Albertalli’s novel. Though “Love, Simon” does not offer anything new to audiences - besides the fact that it’s the first gay romance produced by a large studio to be aimed at teens - it does have redeeming factors through the charm of the classic love story format it follows. Imagine “16 Candles” and “You’ve Got Mail” merged together to make a baby - “Love, Simon” is that baby. Yet this story doesn’t necessarily have anything new and exciting to offer for those looking for an original love story. He sends a message to Blue, a romance begins to blossom, an antagonist is introduced through the power of blackmail - and the plot thickens. Go big or go home, right? After an email persona “Blue” comes out through an anonymous post sent to the entire student body on a chat forum, Simon’s inner conflict intensifies. He struggles to accept his sexual preference and come out not only to his parents and best friend but his entire high school. “Love, Simon” is an average love story with a pop of controversy - Simon is gay.

Add a pinch of Tuscan Himalayan Pink salt or a pinch of sea salt and a pinch of fresh rosemary and sage. You can use more maple syrup if you love sweet squash. You can roast the seeds too if you wish.Ģ) Drizzle the inside of squash with coconut or olive oil and add about 1/2 teaspoon of maple syrup to each half. Scoop out the seeds with a spoon and set aside. You will need to put some muscle behind it since the squash can be tough to cut. Select a large, sharp knife to cut the squash in half. Directionsġ) Wash the squash well with a vegetable cleaner. You can follow the directions below to roast butternut squash or pumpkin as well. It is very difficult to do with all the grooves.īutternut squash is much easier to peel. Serving your soups or stuffed dishes in the skin allows for a lovely presentation so do not peel the acorn squash before roasting. Plus, your breads and meals taste so much better too. Roasting vegetables at home allows you to control how much sugar or salt is in your food. If I am stuffing the squash, I also add some of my Tuscan Himalayan Pink salt or fresh sage and rosemary to enhance the flavor. I love adding some cinnamon, lemon zest, Hand Harvested fleur de sel, and maple syrup and to create a delicious purée for my breads or stuffed squash dishes. If you have a race coming up, eat some squash since the B1 is crucial for converting sugar to energy and helps with muscle cramps. I highly recommend trying this and now is the perfect time since it is fall.Īcorn squash is very nutritious as well as tasty. This bright green acorn shaped fruit is rich in vitamin C and A, folate, magnesium, Thiamin (B1), B6, pantothenic acid (B5), manganese, and potassium. I grew up eating pumpkin pie mix and squash purée out of a can so I figured it was hard to do but it is so simple. A fork should be able to easily pierce the squash and shred it.Roasting squash is very easy to do and only takes about 5 minutes to prepare before popping them in the oven. Place your squash on a large baking sheet or in a baking dish, cut side up. For sweet, brush it with softened butter and sprinkle brown sugar and cinnamon all over it. For savory, drizzle it with some olive oil and sprinkle paprika or curry powder over it with some salt and pepper. Choose if you would rather go the sweet or savory route with your acorn squash. After roasting, the skin on the squash will be soft and edible so there's no need to worry about peeling it if you choose not to, but if you do, the flesh separates from the skin easily after roasting.ĭress it up. If you prefer to eat this squash without the skin, you totally can! If you choose to remove it, we recommend waiting until after it cooks (if you’re serving it whole). Leave the skin on and cut into half moon slices or peel the skin off and cut into large cubes! At this point you can also cut the squash further if you don't want to serve them in halves. Don't toss the seeds, though! Just like you can with pumpkin, clean them off and roast the seeds for a perfect little snack. After you have your squash open, use a spoon to scrape out the seeds. Cut the squash in half lengthwise, cutting through where the stem used to be. This will make a flat surface for it to stand on instead of dangerously rolling around on your cutting board. To make it easier, cut the stem off and place squash cut side down on your cutting board. Here’s everything you need to know to cook it perfectly:Ĭut it in half. You can dress it up savory or sweet based on your main-the possibilities for this squash are endless. Full of fiber, this squash is not only packed with nutrients, but its small size makes it far easier to cut open and work with. While we have plenty of love for all the types of squash, we think that acorn squash deserves its chance in the spotlight. When it comes to winter squash, butternut squash and pumpkin can get all the attention. But even with as much progress as it has actually made in the last few years, I’m not sure the year of Linux on the desktop is imminent for me any time soon. Now I run a couple server-ish boxes on Debian and quite like it - there’s not a whole lot I know how to do, but in those narrow domains that I semi-understand, it works very well for me. A few years after that, OS X because semi-usable (10.2?) and I didn’t have much use for Linux for the next decade and a half. I logged on to IRC and … promptly got booted for being logged into my local system as root. Second time I called with a question (by this point, I had learned enough to know to ask the question “how do I create a non-root user account?”), they suggested I hop onto their IRC channel and ask the community. The first time I called with a question, the support agent suggested that I maybe check the man pages? At this point, I’m an unreformed Windows user and I’m just trying to set up my system, I have no idea what a man page is! As I recall, I was just trying to get into the GUI - not sure why they couldn’t have just said “startx”. I bought it because I wanted to start learning a Unix-like OS (OSS was not a driving principle for me in those days, though I have always respected and appreciated the movement) and, most crucially for me, I wanted paid support. I bought Red Hat at the same time, for around the same price, probably the same release, though I don’t recall which one it was specifically. This puts a new light to Total Commander being sold via (the author's surname) and the site having a very "non corporate" look (and thinking about it, has a very similar look :-P). Me and (another) friend bought WinRAR some years ago (my friend actually bought WinRAR in the 90s and he also bought FAR Manager before it became open source) and said friend was completely into piracy (especially when he bought WinRAR) - when i asked him about it he said it was to support Eugene Roshal. I think the "human face" you mention is closer to the truth. And i do know a lot of people who are in their 40s and still pirate stuff (in fact just the other day i was talking with a friend of mine who was baffled that i bought my Windows 10 license instead of using a crack) while at the same time they also buy things (same guy also buys most of the game he plays for example and has a "big box" collection from games he bought since the 90s). I don't think the age is as important, a friend of mine was buying games since his early teens - but he also pirated stuff. My parents didn't even have credit cards back then (it was all still "cheques" and lots of tiny local currencies). P.S: semi-seriously though: I remember it was hard to buy US shareware from Europe in the eighties/nineties. Played a pirated version of Ultima V for the C64 (I'd use the C128 in C64 mode), which was way better than its Amiga port. So I borrowed my neighbour's C128D (nice machine: my C128 had a little issue) and. Turns out: the port of Ultima V to the Amiga was particularly bad. So I broke my wallet and bought the Amiga version of Ultima V. But I was not on the C64/C128 anymore, I had an Amiga. However one day, when Ultima V came out, I decided I'd buy it: I had been playing Ultima III and Ultima IV so much, it seemed right to buy Ultima V. Buying neither shareware (btw as teenagers in Europe we had no idea how we'd even buy sharewares) nor commercial games (these you'd just go to a shop and buy them). It didn't get much use but it was my introduction to source code control.Īs teenagers we were pirates sailing the high digital seas, our rooms filled with stashes of 5"1/4 and 3"1/2 floppies. What shareware, if any, did you purchase back in the day (and what did you use it for)?Įdit: there was a 4th: WinRCS was a Windows front-end to the RCS version control system. A couple weeks after buying it, one of my housemates took the DOOM disk(s?) to his father's place and ended up infecting it with a virus. We played the hell out of it, multi-player on two 486/66's connected with a serial cable.Īll of the purchases arrived via snail-mail, with TheDraw and DOOM on floppy disks and 4DOS on a CD. In the 90s i used perhaps half a dozen pieces of shareware with any regularity but only purchased three (in no particular order):ġ) TheDraw - an ANSI/ASCII art editor, which i briefly used for creating animated screens for use with dial-up BBSes.Ģ) 4DOS/4NT was a replacement for DOS/Windows which offered features such as the command-line editing available in all modern shells.ģ) DOOM, which my two housemates chipped in to help buy. Even the legendary DOOM was shareware, with the first few missions for free and the later missions available for a nominal fee (a practice not uncommon for games at the time). Shareware was a common software business model back in the 1980s and 90s, though it's rare (or not called that) nowadays. |
