Big Pretzel is probably way to busy keeping the tasty European baked goods away from the Americans instead of spending time on proper Pretzel rotation. Also, every kid knows that pretzel sticks have a top and bottom, don’t be ridiculous! :P
- Comment on Thoughts? 1 week ago:
Number 2 is not upside down. There seems to be no real consensus on what is “up” for a pretzel, but one alleged origin indicates that the pretzel was shaped after praying hands in the middle ages, which would mean 2 is right side up. Also, when they are made in a bakery, due to how the technique is done, they are placed like in 2, and that direction is also reflected on some more traditional bakery signs.

- Comment on Minecraft server hardware benchmarks 3 months ago:
I don’t think there are benchmarks specifically for hosting minecraft, but I guess general purpose benchmarks can give you a pretty good estimate. You could spin up a server on your homelab and just stress-test it a bit to see if it is noticeably worse than the other instance. You’ll have to weigh the saved costs against the (likely) worse performance. on a side note: there are great options to make minecraft playable on servers with less CPU power, like using i.e. a paper server, performance mods, or lowering the renderdistance and ‘faking’ more renderdistance with client-side mods like bobby or distant horizons.
- Comment on Apple’s first Mac mini redesign in 14 years looks like a big aluminum Apple TV 7 months ago:
The new design seems more lifted, I think it should be fine to fit your finger below there without having to lift it.
