      (In Georgia, I can actually find raw milk, but it is sold "for pet consumption only"... never hurt us before)

      People work REALLY hard to get access to that in NY where it is very illegal.

        This would be a small island, no cows here. Only fresh milk that we get, which is actually raw, is sheep, not cow. Not making sheep butter. This is store bought cow cream.

          Ugh... I know it hasn't hurt you but I wouldn't drink raw milk after my experience with the dairy industry.

          Getting it raw would bypass those issues, though 🙂

              You have to get it from a place that actually raises the cows and doesn't cram as many of them as they can into tiny stalls. The place we got our milk from had some friendly cows, lol.

              I'm looking for a place in middle Georgia to get some. Don't feel like driving 4 hours one way for milk.

                @scottalanmiller Is it the "ball jar + butter cream + shaking vigorously = butter" experiment?

                Yup. With like a full litre of cream.

                Full Litre of cream = milk from the cow, rather than all this specially processed junk we have in the US?

                (In Georgia, I can actually find raw milk, but it is sold "for pet consumption only"... never hurt us before)

                I've actually heard of a legal way you can get raw milk in the US. Someone that uses our products runs a farm, but instead of selling the end product (milk in this case), they sell a share of the cow. So if you pay for 10% of a cow, you'll get 10% of the milk. And it's your milk, from a cow that you own. You're responsible for what happens to said milk after that.

                I was kinda sad when my grandparents started pasteurizing the milk they got from the family farm. At least it wasn't homogenized as well. Of course getting an adult to actually process milk properly no matter what state it's in is a whole other topic.

                  I'm trying to let my blood pressure settle, scatter-brain employee calls me first this in the morning when I'm not in the office yet, saying "everything is broken" and she's in front of a client in minutes.

                  And the fix, she's just being a scatter-brain!

                    Growing up in Dairy country. I would NEVER drink anything from a large dairy farm. But I do get raw milk from a small farm (10 cows).

                      Yeah... I know lots of people trying that, in NY even that is cracked down on. They are treating milk and coffee much like cocaine.

                        In Europe, where raw milk is still legal of course because we aren't crazy, most milk is ultra pasteurized which makes it shelf stable. So milk is rarely sold from a fridge.

                              I was just reading up on this, lol. The pasteurization process is good, because it leaves the milk undisturbed, except for killing off some bacteria, if I understand correctly.

                                    Some people who drink "organic" milk have told me UHT pasteurization leaves the milk tasting burnt. I rarely drink milk, except on cereal, and I rarely eat organic marketed foods. The only milk that I think tastes good, and that includes milk directly from the cow, is this new Dairy Pure stuff.

                                      Dairy Pure isn't bad at all. A store down the road from me sells the small bottles of it. I like the True Moo Whole Milk Chocolate (also from the same store).

                                        Recovering from a crashed XenServer box. 😞

                                        All VMs were off and I was using WinSCP to copy my VM to a backup device.

                                            I don't know - I haven't looked on Google yet to see if there is a way to pull logs from the SD card (assuming XS wrote anything to it after the crash.

                                            Since the server rebooted upon the crash there was no information on the screen for me to try to troubleshoot.
