Just finished round 1 of #Thanksgiving cooking.
I have extremely mixed feelings these days about a holiday founded on genocide (seriously, official Thanksgiving #1 was "hooray we killed these natives, let's celebrate" which is deeply ironic/horrific given that the whitewashed origin story also did happen years earlier). But I'm a big fan of cooking and feasting, so that's what I focus on.
I'm vegetarian so no turkey.
I made "chiraji sushi" in my heavily bastardized personal style, as well as vegetarian stuffing. Both were pretty successful, although I truly regret forgetting to put nuts in the stuffing. I ended up using "smoky chipotle" flavor "better than bouillon" for the stuffing soup base, which pairs surprisingly well with the chopped persimmons. I tried doing microwave -> pan fry -> bake for the potatoes and carrots, and while they turned out good, they weren't as amazing as I'd hoped for.
The sushi (with stir-fried carrots, onions, mushrooms, and peas, plus fried tofu chunks and fresh cucumber and canned corn) turned out excellent.
Now I just need to decide what to have thirds of.

»OpenAI kämpft mit hohen Kosten und schwächelnden Nutzungszahlen:
Obwohl das Downloadwachstum von ChatGPT zurückgegangen ist, will OpenAI weiterhin Milliarden in Infrastruktur und neue Funktionen investieren. Aktuell zahlen nur fünf Prozent der Nutzer:innen für ein Abo.«
Dies wundert mich nicht, da mMn KI noch keinen wirklich nützlichen effizienten Aufgaben löst und sogar Zeitaufwendiger in fielen Fällen ist.
