Getting interesting!!!
The lawsuit is in 3 parts:
1 Exploitation of labor, peer review
2 Anti-competitiveness
3 Control (over knowledge), access

Solo #Movie night - for a rewatch partner & I had seen 20 or so yrs ago. No recollection of it at all except it was pretty cool. Been meaning to rewatch a while now.
Fun start - I do remember the insistent beat

@WataruTenkawa read through (translation) and idk everything seems off
Das
@WataruTenkawa the questions seemed off or skewed - not sure how much due to translation. But the results are also seem quite odd.
Really?

Remembering #Nagasaki I was fortunate to visit very briefly last year. The peace park was beautiful and so were the exhibits - but mostly I thought how much some of this should be in the US (and other places)

@LifeTimeCooking fried is staple in Bengali cuisine. Thick slices, plain or thin slices in (besan) batter
I've never tried with tamarind soak or accent. (Though eggplant pieces in tamarind soured sambar are pretty great)
Das
@LifeTimeCooking eggplant is a favorite (vegetable) - but for sambar, I'd have to say vengaya (onion - these are the small shallot like pearl reddish onions) sambar for me. But then again it may have been the specific sambar podi and maker (aunt-in-law in Chennai)
Das
@LifeTimeCooking yes
Also a lot of ghee

#TIL about Shizo Kanakuri - Guinness world record holder for longest time to complete a marathon!
Pretty amazing story from the 1912 Stockholm #Olympics
"It was a long trip. Along the way, I got married, had six children and 10 grandchildren."

Edit: Scroll down to the 1912 Olympic appearance and then return to Stockholm
