Lemon and sugar is also the correct answer!
And I agree they are a pain, usually end up eating them while waiting for the next one to cook! Can suffer it once a year though

Winner winner, pancakes for dinner!
Don't worry, I will eat your share for you. I'm just nice like that.
Although, how can you not like pancakes? The beauty of them is that you get to make them taste however you want by choosing your own filling! There must be something you like that they could be filled with?! BACON!!! for example?

ooh, I Like the spicy Vegetable and mushroom option. Damn now I am hungry
As for Bacon, I don't see the reason to spoil its taste with pancake.
Its a blasphemy not to eat bacon alone.
cheers,

BACON is one of those "generous foods" - it can be used to improve almost anything. Bread and butter, for example. The BACON buttie is one of the World's greatest foods!

As OG mentioned, Time ratio between making and eating is not fair.

Hello,
I received by mail a link to an article called "Microsoft apparently removing ‘Offline Accounts’ settings for international Windows 10 users", that links via codeproject.com.
This article alerts that Microsoft puts more and more pressure to create a Microsoft account to be able to start a Windows 10 session, outside complicated procedures.
So, the logical conclusion should be we all have to install Unix.
Well, OK, I already observed that, by being unable to read the taskbar tooltips above the age of 50.
But ... It is impossible to read that article without disabling all scripts, otherwise it is hidden by a panel asking your agreement for "all cookies".
So, I search for the usual button to "reject all", but there is none, and considering the number of options, reject all would take at least one hour. Well, the article is interesting, but not to the point of spending one hour before beginning to read it.
And you cannot write to onmsft.com, as this would need scripts, and relaunch the problem on top.
So, what is your idea : is not the sum up of this article "hypocrisy" ?

It's incredibly common, as too many site owners believe that they are above the law, and more important than their visitors.
It's what I use my hosts file for.

Oh, is it ?
I often see sites that invite to accept cookies, but generally with an interface that takes into consideration users who do not want to accept cookies, even if this is clearly not the default selection.
I sometimes saw sites where I have to click four buttons for categories of cookies, another to go to "partners" list, and there a button to "reject all", but it is the first time I see it would be so long to reject all and I renounce.
A hosts file can be a solution, but then I first have to compile the list "partners" to verify they all are on my hosts file, not sure it would really be quicker, particularly in this case.
And in fact, they are not very smart indeed.
The classical way to manage this until a law invites to clearly request the user's agreement, was to have a panel down the page, that did not take more than a centimeter height, that you could thus pretty ignore, and anyway there was a button to close it.
If they did it that way I should have accepted, and I realize I should have accepted much more than I should have thought.

Try a different browser - with some decent cookie management?
I use WaterFox - a fork of FireFox that has a lot of the older features that I prefer - like cookie management that's good for humans. Also allows a lot of the nice plug-ins that became unavailable.
My particular settings are Allow cookies from the primary site - erase at end of session (i.e., when I close the browser). Reject all 3rd party cookies.
Cookies don't have to be evil - though often they are. Try a cookie manager.

Well I have got Cookie Quick Manager, that also deletes cookies when opening Firefox. But I had to install it and parameterize it -although Firefox sometimes appeared to be deceiving on this.
And this does not prevent a panel to hide the page, if the site conceiver had this idea. For this I have NoScript, thanks to the fact that the site conceiver did not push the absurdity further- but I should find it more normal that websites avoid to attack readers, rather than these adopt arms to defend themselves. More specifically if the aim of the page is to denounce Microsoft's practices on the topic.
After solving a few problems on my machine, maybe I shall have a look at Waterfox, at least to be informed, thanks for this.

Waterfox was recently sold to an adware company; and because it's an adware company that claims to respect privacy (a contradiction in terms) they're making it extra obvious that they're a sack of s who lie every time they touch a keyboard or open their mouth.

. . . a lot fewer eyes watching it for mis-behavior.
Which is why both are catastrophically inferior to Mozilla Firefox.

Yeah? Not in my opinon.
- Firefox's cookie handling is now substantially more difficult - perhaps deliberately discouraging.
- Firefox plug-in's that I use - not that many at all - but were mostly made DOA when they changed their plugin format. Two of three were privacy-enforcing plugins. Hmmmmm.
WaterFox has not done the above to me. At least so far.

Actually, I am much more pissed off by those sites pretending to accept that I reject cookies, but when I check after I have left the site, there is a whole bunch of new cookies, both from the site I visited and from a bunch of companies advertising on that site.

Oh, there are several, many of which are very popular sites in the tech field.Gluups wrote: A hosts file can be a solution, but then I first have to compile the list "partners" to verify they all are on my hosts file I don't bother with that; I 127.0.0.1 or 0.0.0.0 the sites that make me go to multiple sites to block their cookies (even though I've probably already blocked most of the third-party cookies).
What these sites don't seem to realise is that they need us more than we need them. For every site on the Interwebs, there are dozens of alternatives we can visit instead, but the number of people willing to visit each site is finite.
Every site you block, every clickbait link you don't click, is a lesson to them.
I even have this line in my hosts file:
0.0.0.0 google.com www.google.com subdomain1.google.com And you know what? The Internet works just fine, for me -- and is really fast, without all their ubiquitous "analytics".

A hosts file doesn't stop cookies; it just blocks the URL from loading.
