The thing is, this would just be equivalent to leaving it on at all hours, because who would join such a chat room without the intention of switching it on. Even if you joined such a chat room and had some restraint and decided to wait till the moment you thought would be most amusing, someone else would definitely just decided that it should be on now and basically the only lull would be if the number of users was relatively limited and mostly in the same timezone so everyone is sleeping.

I tend to agree on that more flexible definition with a few core ingredients as baseline but it does seem to me that that core list needs to include at least one regional speciality item specific to the British Isles because I think that’s what the “full” part is really referring to as opposed to just a “fry up” as the other bloke suggested. I think in general in England that’s probably black pudding.

This thinking is because that minimum combination you listed is fairly common in a few places including Australia and while I don’t speak from experience, I think with the exception of the beans if wouldn’t be a totally strange or foreign combination in America either.

I like it.

I like the idea but I must say it’s going to be hard to hold our noses and proclaim anything he does to be “noble” even for the sake of the joke.

Nothing beyond what you see here mate. Still looking. Best suggestion has ironically been basically another Chromecast albeit now sold under a different name.

Good thread. I’ll look at it in detail there were some interesting options. So this Chromecast with Google TV thing, is it like software one puts on an existing Chromecast or… What is it? I’m not really very interested in installing anything apps of any kind on to it because I’m perfectly happy operating those from my phone or computer with a web browser, my issue with the Chromecast aside from increasing unreliability, is that it tries to do anything other than just received video streams and display them on the screen. Could I use this Chromecast with Google TV in that way? Where there’s no apps, no on screen display, just video streams?

I don’t tend to check individually every time I buy just to make sure, but from what I read and on occasions where source was actually identified so that I could check, almost all the garlic sold here in Australia is from China.

I have not really observed this phenomenon with the roots that you’re describing. Also, it’s kind of hard for me to say what particular characteristics Chinese garlic has because assuming that the garlic I’m buying really is coming from China, then it seems they grow several varieties that all gets sold as just “garlic” because in any given trip to the same supermarket you get noticeably different attributes to the size and appearance and physical characteristics of the garlic sold.

I don’t really notice much difference in cooking with them or eating them though. Occasionally you get some much stronger flavoured ones, but it’s just the same taste but stronger rather than detectably different and often this doesn’t really seem to couple with which type they happened to sell this week. Any attributes of the garlic’s appearance that seem distinct to what’s available this week, don’t seem to reliably signal what it will taste like the next time you see those same attributes again the next time they’re on sale.
