When I make my own pizza I use the spare sauce as a dip. Bit of olive oil and fresh basil over the whole thing makes the crust pretty much as nice as the rest.

Also for the stuffed I think you have to do more of a burrito roll type thing so that the edge is trapped by the weight of the stuffing.

So the answers in this post are mostly that people are downvoting the bot because it is often wrong and then others defending it by saying “it’s not wrong it’s just based on American politics”.

If the bot reported from a range of sources that reflect a number of different political perspectives I’m sure it’d be more useful outside of the scope of American politics, and therefore wouldn’t get downvoted.

As far as I’m concerned the vote system is working as intended.

The internet is not American. There are no nations on lemmy ✌️

Normally I’d whole heartedly agree, but to be accused of anything even close to CSAM means he is likely one of:

  • guilty, and not smart enough to hide it
  • innocent, and incredibly stupid (considering his position in media)
  • the victim of a very dark Wile E. Cayote frame up job

Guess we’ll all find out soon enough.

My word, some good news! Hopefully the extension happens and all my country-boy dreams can come true

I see this same issue every now and then on lots of different places, and now it’s happened to me. I think I remember someone saying it happened after their instance got a Lemmy update?

I should add that it isn’t perfect, it’s early access so expect some weirdness albeit a whole lot less than you’d think.

My favourite, for example: if you’re hiding behind cover make sure it is THICK, else a body part might clip through the model making it able to be shot. Mostly happens when prone making legs and feet stick out.

Can’t believe nobody has mentioned Battlebit Remastered. Ridiculous value. Yeah it’s low poly but you stop seeing that after around 5 minutes.

It’s not a fix but a little work around if you don’t want to reinstall:

Edit your password and just re-enter it, then tap save. Seems to achieve the same thing as reinstalling to get a new Auth token.

Agree totally with the feedback Re no information on authentication being dropped. A little splash banner or something would suffice, and then the ability to try authenticating with stored creds again

[–] jakwithoutac@feddit.uk 3 points 1 year ago

I found that editing the password and re-entering it then saving was enough. I guess it’s just having to refresh the Auth token?

Okay, clearly you’re just here to to be contrary or whatever. Maybe you don’t like that people have different opinions than you. Maybe you’re a Zuck fanboy and can’t hack being on the wrong side of the fence. Maybe you’re part of some FaceBook/Meta conspiracy to brigade.

If you’re so smart and confident that you’re correct, why don’t you show me the bit where GDPR doesn’t apply? Burden of proof on the accuser and all that.

Here is a link to a search, where the first page of results is showing that when Facebook bought WhatsApp this exact same issue popped up - what was once two distinct services suddenly started sharing data, despite user dissent. We’ve seen this before, and people are pissed off just like before.

I hope you step on some Lego in a dark room. You could use that to post to your Threads account! 🤙

Actually it’s more like being upset that Facebook friends show up in WhatsApp.

The user in the link is upset because their IG profile is now visible in a different service and they did not explicitly consent to this.

And of course there is such a thing as a Threads account, you even refer to it in your second paragraph. Just because they share a common IDP doesn’t mean they aren’t a distinct service. It’s effectively single sign on without the appropriate privacy protections.

It’s cool that you’re into the whole thing, but other people aren’t and they have a right to be pissed off. GDPR and the like weren’t created for no reason.

 

Is there a user guide for this app anywhere? Or am I getting ahead of myself a bit?

I keep hitting obstacles like not knowing how to edit posts or search in a specific community. It would be good to be able to reference a guide of some sort so that I can find out how to do stuff or if the feature isn’t implemented yet without bugging this community.

 

Yes this has been asked and answered a million times I’m sure. There is a plethora of ‘top ten distros for Linux gaming’ lists out there and the majority of posts I can find on That Other Site seem to devolve into “every distro can do games”.

I’m interested in what you are using and your experience doing so. Any gotchas you wished you knew? Anything you tried that didn’t work, or anything that worked unexpectedly well? What would you say if your friend asked this over a few pints down the pub?

 

Came across a post while scrolling my home feed that had a screen shot of the WefWef view of a community’s posts as the image. Both my feed and the screenshot were dark theme, meaning it was nearly impossible to distinguish until I scrolled all the way to the bottom - obviously the poster had a longer phone than I do as the image took up the entirety of the screen and it just looked like WefWef was no longer displaying the community for each post. Super confusing.

I’ve added a screenshot of my own as the image for this post as an example.

I’ll go off now and find the post I’m referring to and include it with my edit.

Edit update: I can’t find the original post I’m referring to but my image does a good enough job showing the issue.

Not sure what to suggest as a fix or feature request - maybe just reduce the size of images slightly so they are little bit less than the full width of the display? All suggestions are welcome.

 

The Outlaw Empire by Nicholas Eames is supposedly releasing this year, so I need something chunky to fill the gap. I’ve gone through Abercrombie and Lawrence as you might expect, and yes I have read the hell out of The Expanse. I don’t want to start Game of Thrones until I know there is a last book :P

Anyone have any suggestions that might scratch the itch?

 

I’m learning to embrace the warmth so I’ve got the boys coming over, firing up the pizza oven and have the Peroni chilling in the fridge. Not bad for a Wednesday :)

Might even get the sprinklers out for the dog
