I’d buy one if they brought the price down to $20.

I feel bad for wasting water so I stand in the far end and try to start wetting my hair.

Devin Townsend?

Yeah I’m trying to understand this as well. I live in a place that’s extremely hot 4-5 months a year but I avoid sun exposure as much as possible and stay indoors most of the time. I wonder if that helps.

I wish people stumbled upon my music accidentally and stuck around.

The information age of the internet grew too fast before humans could get an actual sense of the repercussions, and it was just a matter of time for the greedy people in power all over the world to use it to their advantage.

Can someone clarify if there's an option to opt-out of all these new data collection stuff? I have all the telemetry related stuff disabled, so I'm not sure if it includes these new things.

I've been happy with Mullvad. Good no-log policy, audited regularly, and their servers run on RAM. No port forwarding though, as others mentioned.

At the moment it's Ma Meilleure Ennemie by Stromae, which was used in the Arcane series. I'm also not into what's viral on social media because I'm not on there much, but I just recently heard Million Dollar Baby by Tommy Richman on a Wingstop commercial, which was apparently viral on tiktok last year. It's a pretty good callback to classic '90's r&b, which caught my attention.

The irony here is I used to live in a dense megacity, although not a developed country, and moved to a city with urban sprawl and no public transportation. I hope to still eventually get to my ideal living environment, but it's not happening in the near future.

I hope it sort of goes the way of smoking where newer generations are now doing it less by choice (at least in developed counties).

I forgot which airline it was (Emirates maybe?), but they gave us stickers that you can put by your headrest to indicate that you want to be woken up during meal or snack service. It was great because you don’t have to worry about missing the food.

Anyone know what's up with the recent beta updates on IOS? I think the last 4-5 updates had no test notes whatsoever.

 

Someone give Giannis a big hug before every free throw. But then it will now take 20 seconds for him to shoot.

[RECIPE] Sushi Bake (files.catbox.moe)
submitted 10 months ago* (last edited 10 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?

 

The first advance screening for general audiences was on February 25 in IMAX cinemas. This thread is for people who have seen the film to discuss ahead of the official release on March 1.

SPOILERS AHEAD! IF YOU HAVE NOT SEEN THE FILM AND DO NOT WANT TO GET SPOILED, STOP SCROLLING AND GO BACK NOW.

Not sure if I'm just not looking at the right places, but did anyone else notice that there's a lack of video content released from this year's all-star weekend? I remember from previous all-star events there were a ton of videos of players interacting on the court and locker room, as well as behind-the-scenes videos. The all-star practice was also officially televised. This time around most of the interesting content I've seen are from people in the arena taking videos from their phones, not official ones.

 

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
