And somewhere along the line, progress got priced out.

Permissionless asks: what would you build if no one could stop you?

NIB & INK FESTIVAL 2025

Last week, my neighbor gave me 32 packages of lunchables pepperoni pizza. That's more lunchables pizza then I would eat before it expired even if I really liked lunchables pizza.

I decided I would try combining all of them into one lunchables pizza casserole.

Here we go

I've always thought crypto was a scam, fraud, corrupt thing with no real use.
I was wrong. Apparently it's useful for buying politicians.
Bouns Round: This power strip, made by a reputable Japanese company, sold at brick and mortar electronics stores, and with PSE (product safety electrical) marking

i super can't show the whole scene because its for work but god has this smoke effect from Arcane eluded me for days!

i didnt let the polygons win

Realtime Eevee on 4.2.2 LTS as per usual

I have some ideas how to make this better, dynamic, procedural and production ready but this is good enough for now

Having a lot of fun with godot and building my add-on tech, weaving multiple custom vfx systems and shaders together to create more complex effects.
A few more tech + r&d goodies still in the works to test before I settle on a feature set for production.

Last week, my neighbor gave me 32 packages of lunchables pepperoni pizza. That's more lunchables pizza then I would eat before it expired even if I really liked lunchables pizza.

I decided I would try combining all of them into one lunchables pizza casserole.

Here we go

Unpacking all these damn things so i can get my mise en place ready
The mise en place
I'm going to do this like enchiladas and build it up in layers. Here's the first layer.
Second layer

I lost track, but I think this is the 5th and final layer.

I'm just guessing with baking so I'm going to put it in the oven at 350F for 30 minutes

Out of the oven and looking tastier than i expected

Quick review: It still tastes basically like a pepperoni pizza lunchable, but everything is hot and melted, so the flavors are more pronounced.

The sauce is still too sweet, and the crusts too much like pita bread, but the top layer of pepperoni and cheese got both crunchy and gooey. That's a nice improvement.

Overall, i think there's just not enough sauce to counteract the dryness of the crusts.

Score: 5/10

@MLE_online OMG YOU DID IT! and now let’s hope you never do it again LOL
@MLE_online thank you for answering a question that I think nobody has ever asked, that is a mark of true research right there
@MLE_online excellent job. Will you eat it all?
@zackstern i dunno. There's so much of it
@MLE_online important research 🙏🙏
@MLE_online I genuinely pity anyone who ever gets on your bad side.
@MLE_online Because you are a creative genius who can make anything from anything. If you ever decided to use your abilities for evil, there'd be trouble.
@MLE_online You give us new things to think about all the time :)
@MLE_online I used to eat stuff like that. It can be tasty, but I was lucky to get away from meat and highly processed food.
@hologram I would never buy these things because that's just too junky of food for me, but food is food and my neighbor gave them to me. I didn't want them to go to waste
@MLE_online I think like that, but I'm strictly vegetarian. Don't worry.
@MLE_online that looks delicious un ironically
@MLE_online wow- appetizing indeed
@MLE_online its glory can only be exceeded by the final baked product
@MLE_online I'm a little terrified of just how much pepperoni grease is gonna melt out of that, but it does look incredible 😂
@MLE_online This is gonna be somewhere between a canned lasagna and a Chef Boyardee Pizza Maker pizza. I'm very excited for a report.
@MLE_online Don’t the layers make it more of a pizza lasagna?
@purplepadma i would say lasagna is a casserole
@MLE_online interesting, in the UK casserole is synonymous with stew
@purplepadma That is interesting. Here, a casserole is a mixture of things that are baked in a big pan until they all kind of set together
@MLE_online Oh that’s very different

@MLE_online That looks quite a lot like a bowl of ketchup.

I really admire the spirit of this effort, but it's *really* not tempting me to try eating a Lunchable.

@MLE_online all that plastic for what does not look tasty. 😬

@MLE_online

lunchables pizza casserole

That's... huh. Yeah, I think this will work!

@MLE_online @futurebird I found this via a boost, but I’m following after seeing all the other stuff you post.

I’m down with the Lunchables science for sure.

@MLE_online don’t think I’ve ever been that high. But here for it 😂
@MLE_online That last sentence made my stomach convulse
@BLTpizza you're from Ohio. You eat weird chili sauce on spaghetti
@BLTpizza to be clear, i really like Cincinnati chili and I'm sad we don't have it here in California
@MLE_online That's exclusively a Cincy thing at Skyline Chili. I don't know what they are thinking. Akron has Swenson's burger drive-ins.
Wait, you are distracting me from the pizza lunchable casserole.
@MLE_online I credit your ingenuity. For some people, this would mean survival and they would wonder where to cook it.
@MLE_online the mise en place of lunchables has got me laughing uncontrollably for a few minutes now. 😆
@MLE_online (Fern:) At first I was like "omg why are you wasting food," but you actually made something edible!! Wow, I'm impressed 😆

@rainbow_phoenix it was going to go to waste anyway because the best if used by date was a couple days ago and I am simply not going to sit there and eat that many lunchables before they expire

I don't know that I'll finish all of this casserole, but I'll probably eat more of it then I would have if they were just lunchables on their own

@MLE_online (Fern:) Understandable! I was thinking food bank, but I'm sure they wouldn't accept expired stuff.

Cheering you on!

@rainbow_phoenix it actually came from a food bank. I expect they would not want it back
@MLE_online thank you for sharing this important work with us.
@amd at a time when the very core of scientific research is under siege, it's vital that we continue the kind of endeavors for the good of mankind

@MLE_online Threads like these are what the Internet is for.

If this ever happens again, would you try something different? Like making little sandwiches, freezing them, and then deep frying them?

If you like spicy foods, you can try mixing in some hot sauce, because that might kill some of the excessive sweetness. Or just something vinegary.

@WhiteCatTamer something needs to counteract the hard breadiness of the crusts. I'm not sure what would do that. More sauce and more time in the oven maybe?
@MLE_online You could lean in to the hardness by making them into a breadcrumb topping; dicing, tossing with olive oil and Italian spices, and then broiling for a bit. If you did that with only a portion, you could keep some degree of structural integrity.
@MLE_online I used to like those in middle school. Didn't realize they still made them! How'd it turn out?
@Fragglemuppet it's ok. Better than the lunchables on their own, but not near as good as a lasagna
@MLE_online @TheBreadmonkey Ok, but why did your neighbour have 32 Lunchables pizzas in the first place?
