I hope you can find another bread product that’s perfect for bushy eyebrows.
Ooh and maybe tiny bagels for eyes. That might be too silly or too small

It may depend quite a bit on the pill. As an adult I can easily dry swallow things like ibuprofen. But I’m not sure about something like oral steroids.
I was prescribed them as a kid due to a particularly bad poison ivy reaction. I couldn’t swallow pills at the time, so after running through all the tricks to teach someone, we ended up grinding them up and sticking them in ice cream. It was something like 15 years before I could eat cookies and cream again without tasting steroids. Grinding them definitely exacerbated the problem, but I’m not sure how I’d fare if prescribed the same pills again.
It’s somewhat bizarre to me that the settings menu isn’t just a reskinned control panel that either launches the new or old items depending on what they’ve finished so far.
I can’t imagine what they’ve done is easier than rewriting control panel items in full one by one.
You can do a halfway decent job of modernizing just by having an “advanced” toggle that shows the more arcane/less used settings.
I understand the desire to race towards a minimum viable product and get the core functionality into the glossy new thing, but they already had a minimum viable product in the control panel.
Too many. I wish Lemmy had post tags, it would make things easier. There are communities I would be interested in, if I had any tools to help see the things I care about.
I’m left with more politics than I’d like, but that’s still preferable to anything I block.
Broadly speaking:
Memes Anime, mostly due to all the anime girl communities Sports Foreign language communities if I really can’t read anything, or I’m seeing too many posts in a row from them Communities that aren’t for memes but that are overrun with them. Sometimes if this is driven by a particular user I might block them instead Communities with porn in the name
What elements that you consider core to the genre is it missing?
Even for non-niche interests, it was nice to have at least some spaces where memes were against the rules.
Here that’s quite rare. It ends up being much more politics heavy, and still with more memes than I’d care to see even with heavy blocking of communities.
Support for tags would help. Or an option to auto collapse comments with inline images.
They also get more bitter the longer they’re cooked. Even with the new variety, I suspect boiling Brussels sprouts might be off the table. Higher temps, or raw (shredded and put in a salad) may get you results you actually like.
Roasting at 230C (450F) for up to about 20 minutes should be good. You may be able to go as high as 260C (500F). If they look slightly burnt when they come out, that’s good. The bitter flavors that develop from burning are related to sugars, so brussel sprouts are largely immune.
I didn’t have brussel sprouts I liked until the 2010s, but now they’re one of my favorites.
There are good sauces you can make from canned tomatoes in 20 minutes (depending on your prep speed).
My go tos are Putanesca & Vodka sauce, but there’s a lot more you can do. Mark Bittman’s How to Cook Everything has a simple recipe and then a big list of variants, most of which can be done in 20 minutes.
Hot take means something else here. In common usage usually only the first half applies, that is, “piece of deliberately provocative commentary”
It’s a motorized wheelchair that takes up twice the space and is way more expensive to build.
Or worse: it’s in telephone mode now, so obviously you only want the sound from the “call” because there’s no other reasons the microphone could be on.

A solid chunk of Philip K Dick’s output worked better as movies/TV than as books.
There’s definitely something there, but the books feel somewhat unfinished/unpolished. Which makes sense, his books weren’t popular in English until after the release of Blade Runner, which coincided with his death. Maybe the popularity of the movie would’ve given him more time and resources to revise future works.
A Scanner Darkly is the only one where both the book and the movie felt about the same quality.
The decision to use Adobe suite is more likely to be a company wide decision. Part of Adobe suite lock-in is also familiarity making things faster. By promoting others, that may help future generations avoid at least part of the problem.
Google services may be much more piecemeal. Even if the boss personally happens to think there’s a productivity benefit to using a given search engine, it would be unusual to block others.
Practicing what you preach is sometimes important, but I’m not sure how much it bears on these issues. A single company eschewing either won’t make a difference. Getting the public to slowly consider alternatives may.
Maybe folks just like symmetry.
If your comments are going to gum up the thread with a segment that they don’t think will have any effect, what’s a few more to match?
As a kid I had heard Got my Mind Set on you by George Harrison on the radio once or twice.
A few years later when I was starting to listen to music for myself I heard the Weird Al parody, and wanted to track down the original. I didn’t remember any lyrics to the original so the best I could do was accost people with a very poorly sung chorus of “this song is just six words long.”
It didn’t go well. I didn’t find the original until the Internet had caught up enough for me to find it easily.
I had a similar arc with Downtown by Petula Clark. Thankfully without me trying to sing a parody chorus at anyone.
It’s still not loading for me unless I open it externally
It really depends what sort of recipes you’re making, but for cooking very loose approximations are often fine.
I often have to convert to weight/mass in order to find out how much of an ingredient to buy. I have no idea how many cups an eggplant is. But once I get it home the recipe might as well say “however much eggplant you have.”
If I’m truly off, I will typically scale up the recipe adjusting for the extra meat or vegetable content. I’ll more or less assume that 1lb of meat is interchangeable with 1lb of veggies. That’s not quite true, in particular with salt.
Your mileage may vary though. Some recipes and ingredients are much more sensitive to deviations.
There may be an earlier version, but I know this as an old Emo Phillips joke
The problem is the mnemonic everyone uses doesn’t use rotational motion. Maybe we need an actual rotational motion mnemonic. Maybe “clockwise screw wise” would work
I could never remember how screws worked until physics and the right hand rule.
