Lol! :D
So did I get your question right?
Yes.
Small people talk about other people.
Average people talk about things
BIG PEOPLE TALK ABOUT IDEAS.

Only bad ones.  Noone has the right texture.
I don't remember which company makes it.
My favorite cause: cssy.org

Would you make hamotzi if you were kovea seuda on them?

Either way, there doesnt seem like there is anything as good that is pas yisroel so you have the rashba/mechaber to be somech on.

Do you have a good reason why it shouldn't work? Especially if your ashkenazi and the only reason you are being machmir is because of the shach?

I was simply referring to the notion of the taste buds effecting halacha and not the other way around :)

I think think the Arizal is machmir across the board.

What would be a good and affordable software/program to learn Hebrew/Yiddish typing?
https://judaicaplaza.com/products/tes-ttn?srsltid=AfmBOoqtgpZznnn9Yv53ZMF81gpzZL_BFzanbvAaZBvMVQ7UifEj4oWL
If no internet access, this is what is used.
$80.
Old, but good.
Available at Judaica stores, or download.

There appears to be a trial version available here (I didn't try downloading it):
https://jewishsoftware.com/download-free-try-it-touch-typing-now
(And then they want $120 for the full version.)

This ancient-looking site seems to offer an old CD-ROM version for 29 GBP:

Does anyone know the name/author of a kids book about (not overfeeding) a pet goldfish? The name "Just a Pinch" sticks in my head but I can't find it online.
Workflowy. You won't know what you're missing until you try it.

Thank you!!

I think there was a Jewish kids book but it's probably a copy of that one. "He gave just a pinch because that was the rule, and then took his schoolbag and went off to school."

Anyone know of that one?
