I was getting a bit annoyed at Firefox and after recently formatting my PC, I decided to freshen things up. So after the mandatory new PC Edge Google, I must say I’m really enjoying the new UI of Opera.
Now I use Opera as my main driver, Firefox for the things that Opera struggles with, and Edge is there too.
Try this:
So everything in space, every object had to get to where it is via time. It travelled there. Everything can’t be anywhere without time as without time it wouldn’t have been able to move there. Time is a constant graph, and as it moves forward, things move around and as such, space is able to exist. This is why we consider space and time to be linked.
Now consider this: if one was to plot a graph of space and time on an x y axis to track an object, there is a point on the graph where time has to be zero, and as such space has to be zero.
This is the big bang.
It is the beginning of the graph. When time was zero, and as such so was space.
Space did not burst out from a single point that we could find out there in space, as there was no point. everything was still everywhere much like it is now, except everywhere just so happened to be so close to one another to be at the same point on the graph. When time began, it just about instantly expanded out, everywhere in every direction. There is no ‘center’ to this expansion, just like if you blow up a balloon there is no center on the surface of the balloon, it just expands everywhere, and more importantly with time we are able to quantify this.
This is such a bad take. Lemmys barrier to entry is already staggering, from picking an instance, figuring out how what and where communities are, finding ones with any engagement and sorting through dead duplicates, filtering hexbear and tankies, to blocking out porn and other stuff you may find undesirable. With bots flooding communities, Lemmy sometimes feels like a shell left behind from other social networks. Just block them? Sure I can, and may succeed playing bot whack-a-mole, but not everyone will bother, and the discussion stifling effect bots are having will remain.
Lemmy is small but growing, and content bots have a place, but maybe that place should be gathered into a bot instance that can be content surfed at will and need not require manual blocking from every individual. All these quirks of Lemmy are stifling it.
Lemmy could go a mile with content and community tagging and grouping functionality. The fractured state of federation and bot infestation, if it’s to be a feature, needs fleshed out tools to easily moderate in an additive way, rather than manual filtering out. It needs to be useful and functional from account creation and improve with filter work, not start as a bot ridden fractured mess and get manageable after some filter work.
I assume it’s the ‘swiss style’ raw rolled oats not toasted.
I have it with plain yoghurt and a bit of jam. Milk is nice too. I like the texture and it’s fantastic for your gut.
Having said that you obviously hate that, so try this:
Mix equal parts honey, brown sugar and coconut oil (or olive oil you could even add a dollop of butter) and heat in a saucepan until the sugar is melted. (About a 1/3 cup of each should be enough for about 3-4 cups of muesli mixture.) While you wait, put your oven on a medium to low heat like 150C.
Separate out the fruit bits and set aside. Combine the rest of the ingredients with the melted honey oil mix, and spread out thin on a baking tray (you may want to do batches, keep it spread thin here!
Bake on low for about 20-30min, stirring every 5-10min. (Don’t let it burn)
Once cool, break it up and add your fruit back, Voila! You have crunchy home made granola cereal! Feel free to add anything else, pecan nuts / almonds / coconut flakes - either raw or toast it with the granola at the beginning. I like banana chips. Chocolate chips are nice too. You can’t really go wrong and it’s easy as.
Note:: The only thing you want to avoid is burning it while you toast it, the burn flavour will take over the whole mix! So keep an eye on it and keep it moving.
Note:: melted sugar is like lava. Melt it on the saucepan slowly and don’t let it smoke. Keep the heat low. Don’t stir in to the muesli with your hands. Use a wooden spoon. That shit will burn.
If you’re crafty, I feel like this is something you could make out of a wooden 2x2 or a dowel stick, a jigsaw and a drill with the right bits.
Welcome, please leave your shoes at the door!
Adding to this:
America is often the voice of media, being the home of, Hollywood, reality TV as well as the loudest voices on the internet it’s natural that we perceive that to be the home of Alien stories.
Being a ‘wealthy’ country: often a higher employment rate leads to an increase in extra curricular hobbies. Countries with less time to focus on things other than work will also have less time to expand on other interests. This can have a spin off effect of increased time spent day dreaming about lights in the sky.
America is a very new country. There’s lots of vast open nothingness to explore. Considered a ‘frontier’. The concept of unexplored territory and unclaimed space of mystery is very much more engrained in American culture, unlike say anywhere in Europe where every square inch is claimed and has a city within an hour’s drive. All that empty nothingness with strange lights on the horizon can lead to more mysterious musings of what they might be.
Oh good to know. Thanks! I’ll explore that.
Adobe has no time for it, so it ads that annoying extra step when collecting assets. I would appreciate Adobe support for it natively in Pr / Ps / Ae / Me and I’m cool with it.
existential crisis intensifies
Oh my god. I’m stuck in somebody’s suitcase.
Plot twist: The money to spawn comes from other people randomly. Eventually people start reporting vanishing money at the same time that people hear news of a man randomly raining money wherever he goes. This immediately sparks controversy and religion, as the country begins to destabilize and the economy grinds to a halt.
The government gets together and decides that changing the currency to a new note, so as to avoid it being conjured away and raining somewhere east of Massachusetts, is the only solution forward.
This has an unexpected blowback, as the superpower is to spawn money, not useless green paper. The rain immediately changes to the new currency.
Discovering this loophole, the government changes the currency to bowling balls in the hope to have the problem solve itself.
You now randomly hail bowling balls around you and the local bowlingalley owner is a tycoon. You killed ten pin bowling. I hope you’re happy you bastard.
Ok but what about the uncomfortable keyboard? WHAT DO WE DO???
I too have been sent here. It’s at the top of hot right now.
Seems to be a Lemmy zombie post glitch that needs to be addressed.
Morley’s for the banger hot wings.
I should think you can, depending on the wood, many can be toxic.
The bark of a Willow tree is used to make Aspirin, we smoke paper and eat many plants with less woody stems. There are certain other barks and cambium (the soft layer between the bark and the wood) that contain nutrients, such as birch, pine, elm and a few others that have been eaten by our ancestors for centuries and even have medicinal properties. We also grate cinnamon and a few others as spice. Dog food is often bulked up with ash.
The real issue is that the hard cellulose in the actual wood part is not particularly digestible and basically pure fibre and devoid of any real nutrient value. So it would need to be boiled or blended first I imagine, or steeped as a tea. It would be revolting or taste like nothing and probably give you constipation but I doubt you would die.
As a raw bite of a chunk of wood, no. It would be considered inedible.
And every time you don’t win, you can slowly confirm your darkest fears that you are indeed in your shittiest timeline.
I’ve got a pair of nice old Japanese wooden bookshelfs hooked up to a NAD amp that plays both my records and my TV/PS. That does the heavy lifting, for my office I have some good but generic over ears that get the job done. And then I have a pair of planar earbuds ‘LetShoer S12’:which are awesome bit I don’t use often because they’re quite sharp for long sessions but sound fantastic.
I didn’t think I would cut it completely, but once Sync died I tried to use the browser and it just forces that app on you. The app is unusable and very unenjoyable. Cold Turkey it is.
I imagined the numbers would be a touch higher but 3% feels shruggable.
I think the real question that these numbers don’t tell you though is the quality of the content. When I have popped on just out in f curiosity and not logged in, the new ‘front page of the internet’ appears to be whitepeople twitter and memes. Doesn’t look inviting enough for me to log in at all.
I started to watch him as he never pulled punches and picked some great match ups of guests and hot topics.
I stopped because his insufferable ego kept compelling him to continuously talk over everyone with his non-stop opinionated smug. Once I noticed I was just watching one man listening to the sound of his own voice while guests that I wanted to hear from get repeatedly cut off at every third word by his desire to manufacture Jerry Springer type drama, I realised how punchable I truely found him to be.
