  Wikipedia editors discovered that the archive site altered snapshots of webpages to insert the name of the blogger who was targeted by the DDoS.

  Shoulda have led with that.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Avocado. Is it really so untasty or I am doing something wrong?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  There are two major kinds of avocado. The internet lost its shit about palta, famous for its use in Mexican guacamole. It’s about the size of a pear, with bumpy skin. Best served as part of savory dish (seasoned with salt).

  The other one is bigger, rounder, and has smooth, shiny skin. Known as aguacate or abacate. Best served as a sweet dish. A banana+abacate+milk smoothie with a bit of sugar is delicious. Also eaten with a sprinkle of sugar and a squeeze of lime.

  Using the “wrong” kind of avocado is possible, but requires adaptation and even then the results are sub par.

  They apply Gaussian blur followed by edge enhancement to get rid of the poison, and it works, but it does leave them with ab poorer quality image. So, still better than nothing, but nowhere near as effective.

  Not quite, right? You’re not drowning them in solution. But now I need to try fully pickling them.

  Slice them thin, a tiny bit of salt and pepper, a dash of vinegar, let it rest on the fridge overnight.
