in Dune, the Butlerian Jihad was so severe that they don't even use basic computers anymore. they got rid of AI, yes, but they also got rid of absolutely every computer period

given the way some anti-AI people talk, this is practically their goal as well

just roasted some red potatoes and red onions tossed with lots of oil some salt, pepper, and oregano

i remain completely convinced that this is the best way to prepare vegetables. dead simple, always delicious. just be sure to use enough oil :p

the ratio i used was 5 red potatoes, 1 onion, 1/4 cup canola oil i would reduce the oil maybe to 1/8th as 1/4 was fine but a little heavier than i wanted. this made i'd say maybe 4-6 servings?
