Ham is cured, which is considered processed.

Not OP, but it could be a taste thing:

In the US it's frequently wet cured to save money. At the deli there are a lot of varieties of ham that mostly just taste sweet, with no noticeable ham flavor or saltiness. This is what usually ends up on Hawaiian pizza.

I'd buy that. If you want to replace 20% of my animal product with plants and can do an ok job I'm down.

As long as it's labeled properly and you don't have to do anything crazy, it's at the very least something I'll try.

Not OP, but most of it.

Tutorials I might need to go a bit slower, remembering broad strokes isn't enough, and detailed steps in order is probably too much, but that would be true at 1x speed as well.

For videos generally I watch almost everything at 2x or higher. Headphones help, it would be much harder if there were any competing audio stimulus. If I'm forced to go at 1x I retain almost nothing.

If you asked me about last Wednesday or the one before, I could probably tell you eventually. You might get a lot of detail about the rest of the week along the way, because I'd have to piece together what I did and which day Wednesday was.

It would be about the same if you asked me about the current weather moments after I walked inside. I might be able to tell you, but I'm going to have to build the memories on the spot.

In regards to anxious: I suspect this usage is similar to "anxiously awaiting" just morphed slightly. "I'm anxiously awaiting a raise" makes sense as a sentence, but is a bit clunky.

At least in my dialect (US northeast) clothes and close don't quite share a pronunciation. They're similar enough that you could probably fully elide the th sound, and I'm not sure anyone would notice.

When I pronounce clothes I can still feel my tongue move into the th position, and hear a small difference.

Immigrant/emigrant sound too similar to be generally usable. Lawless and lazy probably aren't the culprit here.

You can, but plugging thumb drives into work machines is not always kosher

One of the uses of notepad was also that it's installed by default, and was a place you could be assured wouldn't mess with your text. No formatting, no weird characters you didn't ask for.

Notepad++ is great, but you can't be assured it's installed on any arbitrary Windows machine.

Shortening the longer leg is much less invasive and probably preferred, but the discrepancy has to be caught very early. You need years of measurements to predict exactly how long each leg will be and when. If you have those, there's a pretty small window when the long leg is exactly the right length to tell it to stop growing.

Several offices have a minimum age defined in the Constitution. President's is 35

6 instances, 1087 communities, 27 users.

I should probably look at unblocking the instances. I used those blocks early on to remove a massive number of communities I was uninterested in, but it has the side effect of also functionally blocking those users.

I do wish there were better tagging and filtering tools. Some of the communities I've blocked might have posts I'm interested in, but there's currently no way to surface those from under the mountain of memes.

I'd also love to be able to block posts but not comments from specific users. There's a handful of topics I don't care about, and some of the blocked users are just very interested in those topics.

And auto collapse comments with inline images (although that's more of an app feature than a Lemmy feature).
