That’s not what people are afraid of. It’s his antivaxx stance and other extreme stuff that people are against. If only he pushed for just the sane stuff like banning/regulating additives, dyes, HFCS, etc.

You can now give someone the finger and tell them that’s the only time you have for them

Struggling to make ends meet isn’t an excuse to be a danger to other people.

I read it like that at first as well and actually have a use-case for it. I have a certification exam next week and that 24 hour rewind would be very helpful if I do terrible on the exam. lol

Interestingly, I read the full article more often now on lemmy vs back on reddit. Maybe because there aren’t a ton of comments on posts here so I don’t have context and need to just read it myself. Either way, it’s better because I get to form my own opinion instead of basing it off on other people’s comments.

Tubi is way better anyway.

The original StarCraft and Brood War. I’ve always hoped a movie would be made about the story/lore but hollywood doesn’t exactly have a good track record with turning games into movies.

Sorry, can you clarify this:

bill-paper (from buying stuff)

Do you mean the paper used for receipts? I kinda remember reading something about it but I can’t recall the exact details.

Because most people switching don’t know (or care) about the fediverse and decentralization. They are regular internet users who just want to get away from the cesspool that is twitter, so they go where other people are going.

Any distro on a bootable usb drive. Instant OS, no installation needed, just plug it in.

Nice. Do it with fried rice as well.

The post about Stephen King moving to Threads says otherwise. But to be fair, it’s Threads and not Bluesky, which people here hate more.

 

This needs to be explained a bit, so here's my problem:

  • I use Focus for sleeping. I manually enable it when I go to bed and disable it when I wake up.
  • My Focus setting disables notifications for email, calendar, and some messaging apps.
  • My security camera app notifications are not disabled, obviously because I want to be alerted if something triggers it in the middle of the night.
  • However, there is a certain time in the morning between 7:30AM and 8AM where people walking on the sidewalk triggers alerts that wake me up. And no, I want to avoid not pointing my cameras away from that part of the sidewalk because it helps me catch people letting their pets pee and poop on my yard.
  • I usually wake up at 8AM and getting woken up 30 minutes earlier is annoying.
  • I am willing to accept the risk of not getting notifications from my cameras on my phone for 30 minutes before I wake up.

What is the most practical way to disable notifications from an app on a scheduled time duration while Focus is already in use? Schedule it in Health? Create a shortcut/automation?

[RECIPE] Sushi Bake (files.catbox.moe)
submitted 7 months ago* (last edited 7 months ago) by scytale@lemm.ee to c/cooking@lemmy.world
 

Since there was some curiosity about what a sushi-bake is, here's my own recipe for it. Sushi-bake is basically a "deconstructed" sushi roll where the ingredients are layered instead of rolled then baked in the oven. There are different variations of how it's made, so this is my take on it. Apologies if I don't have exact measurements of portions, as I just wing it and base it on the taste.

Ingredients:

  • Sushi rice (regular white rice is fine if you don't have sushi rice, but add a bit more water when cooking to make it more moist).

  • Rice vinegar.

  • Any protein of your choice like crabstick, tuna, or salmon; shredded.

  • Fruit/vegetable. Cucumber, mango, avocado, or any other ingredients you'd like to add to your sushi; sliced and cubed.

  • Japanese mayo (i.e. kewpie).

  • Sriracha. In my case, I used a gochujang-based hot sauce with truffle oil.

  • Furikake.

  • Sesame oil (optional).

  • Sugar/sweetener (optional).

  • Mozarella cheese (optional).

Recipe:

  1. Cook sushi rice as directed.

  2. Mix your protein, veggies, and fruit in a bowl with Japanese mayo and sriracha.

  3. Mix the cooked sushi rice with a few tablespoons of rice vinegar and a bit of sugar (optional). I personally don’t put sugar because I find the rice vinegar enough for flavor.

  4. Line a baking pan with foil. You can also do without, I'm just lazy with washing.

  5. Grease the pan with a little sesame oil.

  6. Add a base layer of sushi rice on the baking pan and flatten it thoroughly.

  7. Add a layer of your protein/veggie/fruit mix on top of the rice.

  8. Sprinkle a layer of furikake.

  9. Optional: Since I like to put cheese on everything, add a layer of shredded mozarella.

  10. For aesthetic purposes, draw alternating diagonal lines of mayo and sriracha, and top it off with another sprinkling of furikake.

  11. Bake at 350F for 15-20 minutes.

To eat, slice it into square bites. You can eat it as is with chopsticks or a fork/spoon, or use Nori to scoop it up.

 

My city's limits covers one county and half of the county north of it. Why don't they just follow the same lines on the map, with either the county following the city, or the city following the county line?

 

Does anyone else get logged out when switching between wifi and mobile data? I notice when leaving the house (or coming home) and my phone switches between wifi and data (and vice versa), the app asks me to login again. I have the beta/testflight version.

 

On a hot day and traveling in a car, which method of keeping the occupants comfortable with the A/C is more energy and fuel efficient?

  • Set the thermostat to a lower temperature and keep fan speed to the lowest setting

  • Set the thermostat to a slightly higher temperature and compensate by setting the fan to a higher speed so you can feel cool enough with the breeze

 

I’m subscribed to a couple of communities where those bots post regularly. I noticed a drop in content recently and realized I haven’t seen those bots for the past week. I’m trying to figure out where they got blocked and was wondering if our instance blocked them. Anyone have an idea?

 

Did anything happen to those bots over the past week? I’m subscribed to some communities that have them posting stuff regularly. I just noticed a drop in content on my feed yesterday and realized I haven’t seen posts from those bots the past few days.

So I prefer to use a DNS blocker (DoH) on my IOS devices to block ads, malware, and trackers. For the longest time I’ve been using Aha DNS Blitz because it allows you to choose the exact filter lists you want to enable. Recently I saw Mullvad now has their own DoH service as well and I’m trying it out now. It’s not as customizable as you can only choose a combination of the general categories (ads, malware, tracking, social, gambling, etc.). On the other hand, Mullvad runs everything on RAM now and they are very transparent of their methods and have a proven track record.

I’d like to get the community’s opinion on which of the two you prefer and why.

 

I don't see a discussion thread for the recently concluded Attack on Titan anime series, so here it is. Mods, feel free to delete if inappropriate.
