  • Multiple kinds of bouillon or similar (a ham flavor isn’t super common but very useful)

    All the usual ones: granulated garlic & onion, dried parsley, oregano, marjoram, thyme, rosemary. Sage too but I’m just learning to use that one outside of recipes which call for it. Bay leaves.

    Blends: Frontier brand poultry seasoning. Italian seasoning. Curry powder, I’m embarrassed to say I don’t have a preferred brand yet. Garam masala.

    Ground turmeric, ginger, coriander, cumin, mustard.

    Paprika, smoked paprika, mild chili powder, chipotle powder, red pepper flakes. Black & white pepper. Chili garlic sauce in the fridge.

    Cinnamon, allspice, nutmeg, cloves. Vanilla extract.

    Cider vinegar, white & red wine vinegar, balsamic.

    Frank’s red hot.

    Regular Japanese style soy sauce. Chinese & Thai style dark soy sauce. Oyster sauce. Fish sauce. Worcestershire sauce.

    Toasted sesame oil.

    Since I mentioned oil, a high temp frying oil such as peanut or grapeseed. Refined & virgin coconut oil and butter flavored Crisco for baking.

    Edit: how could I forget nutritional yeast… I live with vegans but I’d have plenty of uses for it even if I didn’t.

    I think that about covers the waterfront… after HVAC and running water, the biggest thing I am going to miss after civilization collapses is the ability for even lower middle class Western households to have a king’s ransom in seasonings if they are so inclined.











  • and support the idea that anyone not aligned with their authoritarian values should just “go back to Reddit”

    I mean, I’m not a “tankie” and make a point of posting to non-ml communities when there’s a choice of ml and non-ml because I think there’s some toxic moderation going on there, but I also would prefer that shitlibs go back to reddit and stay there 🤷










  • I managed to figure out how to bypass the cert verification in dbconfig-mysql (named on the tin as dbconfig-common) and got my appliance set up!

    1. apt install dbconfig-mysql before installing the PhpMyAdmin package

    2. In /usr/share/dbconfig-common/internal/dbc-mysql, in both sections where temporary my.cnf is defined, set ssl-verify-server-cert = off right below the port = line.

    3. to install PhpMyAdmin, run DEBIAN_PRIORITY=low apt install phpmyadmin and follow the prompts

    4. In /etc/phpmyadmin/config.inc.php add the following line directly under $cfg['Servers'][$i]['host'] = $dbserver;:

      $cfg['Servers'][$i]['ssl'] = true;
      $cfg['Servers'][$i]['ssl_verify'] = false;
