Lol, for some reason this made me think of a scene from The Good Place:
Hey. You look happy. You get laid last night? I didn't. Tried. Hard. This chick that I met after I followed her into a yoga class, but she wasn't into it. Maced me. Right in the eyes. Stung like hell. What was I saying? Oh, yeah. Hey.
Just buy bananas that are of the ripeness you like and put them in the fridge. They’ll easily last a week or two and tastes better too (my opinion). Don’t worry if the shell turns brown, the insides are still good. Place them in some kind of container (plastic bag will do) when you store them in fridge and they’ll probably last a month if not more (I wouldn’t know, I always eat them sooner).
When storing in fridge, the low temperature slows down ripening but oxygen causes the shell to turn brown. When the shell is brown enough it will start to ruin the insides. The plastic bag, or other airtight or near airtight container, reduces the amount of oxygen that gets to the bananas. When there’s less oxygen to turn the shell brown the bananas will last who knows how long. In room temperature the shell and the insides will ripen about at the same rate, and usually pretty fast.
This is what I do. People have gotten so used to commercially produced unripe fruit that they get turned off by actually ripe fruit. I had a friend think my bananas were going off because they smelled what a ripe banana is supposed to for the first time in their life. This person was 34 years old.
I was a huge distro hopper until I started using immutable distros. One thing no one tells beginners is that you do have to maintain your system more on Linux than other OSs because Linux gives you the rope to hang yourself with. I would always bloat my OS and things would get unruly, everything would slow down or become unstable and I would lose track of how I had everything set up. Immutability make things so much cleaner.
Clearly, you aren’t a super white American. My family tree got filled up easily up until the 1600s because I have a bunch of family members with nothing better to do than catalog our family tree. Apparently one half of my family came from Scotland in the 16th century so I can claim that I’m Scottish-American now.
It’s because American doesn’t tell you anything about where your ancestry is from. You could be from anywhere in the world and be American. Scottish is a pretty specific things, as is just about any other nationality.
I still only say I’m American even though my family is largely from Scotland. WV Appalachian (I think Appalachian in general) has a large percentage of Scottish ancestry, and it also shares the same mountain range interestingly enough.
Just thought I'd add this report from the AZ health department. This breaks down the factors MUCH better and comes to a similar, but not quite as extreme, conclusion. Only part is normalized for population, but it gives an idea of how to scale the numbers.
