Last post by scarface - December 30, 2024, 08:15 PM
Tonight, I'm going to present another recipe.

Look at the photos below.



What you see here is a wild boar roast (rôti de sanglier in French).


This rôti was cooked in a stockpot for 40 minutes. The vegetables are not overcooked: they were simply browned and cooked in the meat juice.

The wild animal, thus scathingly referred to, turns out to be an excellent dish: wild boar meat has a robust and gamey flavor compared to the milder taste of pork. Its meat is also considered leaner and healthier, which is attributed to the animal's diet, which consists of a variety of natural foods like roots, nuts, and berries. In France, it's pretty difficult to find this kind of meat in a regular grocery store, and it's also more expensive than a mere pork roast. "Rôti de sanglier aux petits légumes" is certainly a perfect dish for the guests of Vasudev, humbert and shadow.97.

Quote from: Vasudev on December 23, 2024, 11:22 AMYes indeed I'm using 23H2 the same December 2024 update. Can you send a snapshot of layout of your SSD in disk management. I want to verify if system partitions have proper disk space. Injecting latest update increases recovery image size.

Just to be clear. It's Winkey-X then K for Disk Management, right? Assuming this is what it is, do you have an email address to send it to?

I know Scarface posts a ton of pics here. I'm just not sure how he does it. I've done it before years ago. I forgot and/or the servers that host the pics might be different.

Maybe Imgur link

Quote from: Vasudev on December 19, 2024, 07:27 AMCan you post a screenshot of disk layout where windows 11 is installed? Windows 11 is still a mystery to me why it doesn't install on your PC. BTW I switched the windows explorer to old windows 10 style using Switchexplorer.
I'm on 23H2 December update and after that I created the new ISO.

It DOES install. The problem is what happens afterwards. The command prompt and powershell don't come up. Windows Update doesn't work. There are probably some other snags too, but these are the ones I found so far My only choice was to restore the back I made before attempting the install.

I don't think there's something wrong with your ISO. There's something wrong with my system. I believe a clean install will solve the problem. Who's got the time to reconfigure everything from scratch and reinstall all my apps? I know I'll probably have to do this the day 22H2 is no longer supported. I'm putting off the inevitable.

In your tests you show no issue with your copy of 23H2?

Today, a repack of the game Lazaret is available on the forum.

Lazaret is an atmospheric first-person horror game. You play as a member of a rescue team called out to investigate a distress signal coming from a ship that disappeared 4 years ago.
All attemps to communicate with the ship have failed.

The maps you posted are a graphical representation of something we already knews. It also shows that despite 8 billion humans, most of planet earth's land is devoid of people. I hesitate to use the word "empty" because that word doesn't take into consideration non-human life forms.

Today, I'm going to show you a few population density maps taken from the Encyclopedia Encarta. The product was shelved and the sale was finally abandoned in 2009 because of better alternatives online.
However, some of the maps contained in this Encyclopedia were pretty good, notably the population density maps.
Vasudev, shadow.97 and  usmangujjar are certainly wondering what a population density map is: it shows how many people live in each square mile or square kilometer of a given area by using shading or colors.

Look at the maps below (you can open the images in new tabs to get them in full size):

We can see that the East of the USA is more populated than the West


Russia and Australia are sparsely populated. The population of Australia is essentially concentrated in a few towns.





This map shows that India is densely populated even if some parts of the territory are empty, notably the mountainous border between India and Pakistan.



This map of Indonesia shows that the small island of Java is much more densely populated than the other islands.

I downloaded the Windows 11 23H2. Maybe this one will actually work. Just a quick question: did you test it well before uploading it? If so, does the command line open immediately? Did you find any other issues with it?
