Take Jimmy Dean sausage meat, the one in the plastic tube, and spread it over a sheet of cheddar bay biscuit dough. Roll it into a log and slice it at a half inch thick spirals. Bake in the oven at 350 freedom until golden brown. Dip the top in the supplied seasoning prepared as directed. Enjoy cheddar bay biscuit sausage rolls.
If you hear “sausage cheddar biscuits” and think, “well that sounds unhealthy!” while clutching your pearls, then you don’t understand what’s going on here.
one time, I asked and got a reply that it has been answered already, followed by a rant of why the hell people were asking the same question over and over again. IDK man, maybe you could update the installation instructions in your readme, then people wouldn’t be flodding discord with the same question over and over again.
(it was regarding the project being incompatible with the newest version of a library and you had to manually install an older version to get it to work)
Lemmy/Reddit style platforms are good at generating short term discussions, it’s threaded chats.
The main features that makes forums the best to accumulate knowledge is bumping and linear discussions. There’s only one discussion that everyone is following if they want to talk about a specific subject, the knowledge on that subject is centralized and keeps accumulating instead of requiring to be constantly repeated because the previous thread is lost to time. The linear discussion means you don’t have to go back up and start reading a different branch to know what some other people are talking about (which often times leads to having many people basically saying the same thing without realizing it), all new replies appear in chronological order and people quote others to provide context when necessary.
Look on old school forums for more “boomer hobbies” and it’s ridiculous how long conversations can keep going. I provided a link in another reply but the Yamaha WR250 thread on ADVRider has 428k replies since 2013, all that is possible to know about this motorcycle is in they thread and pretty much any question you might have will have its reply in there. There’s car forums with discussions that have been ongoing for decadeS!
Meanwhile on Reddit of you want to ask a question in a thread that was started 24h ago you’re shit out of luck, no one but the OP will know about it. On Lemmy? Everyone sorts by top 6 hours.
In regards to the advrider comment, I don’t find those ridiculously long-running threads all that convenient even though they are very useful. In your example the WR250R thread could have multiple subtopics being discussed at once in the same thread which I find frustrating.
For example, one guy might ask about tires and while that’s being discussed another guy shows up asking about a big bore kit to make more power. Now there are two discussions happening at the same time and all I can do is view the thread chronologically. Then someone else shows up asking what oil everyone uses. Then someone new joins and says “Hey it’s not possible to go back and read through all 2300 pages in this thread, what GPS are you all using?”
Like sure it’s great that all the information is in that one thread but navigating through it only in chronological order can be super frustrating.
I have been playing with the idea of a documentation.org. Something publicly funded (mostly through corporate and individual donations) that hosts technical manuals, white papers, guides, links to video tutorials (likely YouTube), FAQs, and even links to Discord and/or forums if they exist. Documents are public, free to index (no login to view), version controlled and held in perpetuity.
Obviously there is much more to it, but I think we have reached a point where something like it is required.
In the most technical terms, yes. The idea is not new or bizarre, but I see the same missteps repeated. For starters, the venture HAS to be a nonprofit with zero need for monetization. It will also need an inviting and easy to navigate user interface, accessible to the most nontechnical of users. You need to have a massive document library from multiple large players from day one, so you need to have a lot of contacts.
As I said it’s not fully cooked, but I have spoken to a few people that could help me make it happen and they seemed open to it.
Please consider a Patreon for doc review. I don’t mean reviewing the doc against the project for fitness, as that’s the job of each project to maintain and review their own docs; I mean by a technical writer who can de-localize (you only think I mean ‘internationalize’) the document and make it syntactically and logically correct against a generic, classic style guide.
The rising popularity of really bad errors is definitely turning me off from videos or documentation from a few sources with a lot of churn. It ruins the flow and it robs the assumption of authority which I’d argue is an important part of any documentation.
That is a good idea. I am fairly certain I could get funding and/or loaned resource time for English, Spanish, French and German, but crowd funding incentivized localization for other regions is brilliant.
It just kind of happened because i got annoyed that i had to stop during long phrases to breathe in so i just kind of taught myself how to whistle while breathing in. I just googled it to see how special that is but all im seeing is health conditions.
Please put an NSFW tag on this. I was on the train and when I saw this I had to start furiously masturbating. Everyone else gave me strange looks and were saying things like “what the fuck” and “call the police”. I dropped my phone and everyone around me saw this image. Now there is a whole train of men masturbating together at this one image. This is all your fault, you could have prevented this if you had just tagged this post NSFW.
I grew up when people were getting worried about Led Zep and backward masking clearly indicating BS shit smoking pot. I’m glad these mental gymnastics are still strong - I’m slowly getting free of it all…
I have put my waffle iron through more shit than it should reasonably be able to handle. I used to have parties with friends where we would get fucking plastered and try waffling everything.
The waffle all the things craze started shortly after, a cosmic coincidence if ever there was one.
Anyway here’s some reports.
First, we used a shallow style waffle maker. Mine was a cheaper Cuisinart but I think any would do.
Bad corn bread mix is elevated in the waffle maker but really fucking good corn bread is better prepared the traditional way. I used famous Dave’s as a nice middle ground cornbread batter and it made a fantastic base for chili.
As did cheap tube cinnamon rolls. Cinnamon rolls and chili are a staple where I’m from and trust me when I tell you that waffling them and serving chili on top absolutely elevates the dish.
Tater tots, covered in cheese, and cooked from frozen on the waffle iron are absolutely the best version of tater tots. This is the one thing we did every single time. You gotta abuse the poor iron closed but it’s worth it.
Bread is just toast in the waffle maker, a bad version of toast. Anything you see that says put something in bread and put it in the waffle maker has been disappointing.
Fried mac and cheese bites, similarly, are not improved by the waffle process.
Pierogi however, are absolutely wonderful but not necessarily improved enough to be worth the effort. Unless you’re alone and somehow only want like 4.
Lasagna was the last item my poor waffle iron waffled. The HR Geiger abomination that came out of that poor machine was absolutely fantastic. Alas my poor iron never came clean again. It was a fitting send off.
There’s no frosting on the cinnamon rolls. It’s good. I promise you it’s good. It isn’t gonna change your life but I swear it’s good. it’s better than the nonsense they do in Ohio with fuckin spaghetti.
Muffin in non-North American English refers to a part-raised flatbread, like a crumpet. In North America, muffin typically refers to a sweetened quickbread baked in a mold like a large cupcake, but shockingly even less healthy. The rest of the English speaking world generally refers to this as an American muffin.
In North America, biscuit refers to a levened, typically unsweetened quickbread. For the rest of the English speaking world, a biscuit is flat, unlevened, and often sweet, like shortbread. This would be referred to in North America as a cookie.
Step 2 again: Ha, ha, just kidding, that would be to straight forward. Please install this dependency installer program that only this and two other projects use. Pip grep panda cholotte poetry bash docker numpty anaconda jupternotebook alacazam. Oh, you don’t have it? Well, I’m sure the project page will tell you how to install it and add it to path!
Step 3: Run " program name" and … “insanely detailed description of what to do once the program opens”
Step 3 again: When you run it, get error “k*args passed null into program, so eat shit you can’t fix this”
Step 4: Go to git hub issue page and see people have been complaining about this error for 6 months, but it was working back then when it’s 12 dependency hadn’t been updated yet. No fix incoming since the programmer was a chineese grad student that graduated 6 months ago and stopped working on the code.
This is why I like Docker. It’s basically “works on my machine” as a service.
Similarly, I’m starting to really like dev containers. They’re Docker containers with all the required dev tools already installed inside, and a config so that VS Code knows how to spin up a new container when you want to do dev work on the project. They use VS Code remoting - a VS Code server runs in the container and the regular VS Code desktop app connects to it.
I was recently dealing with a project that has some Ruby dev tools and it was 100x easier to deal with since they were using dev containers.
All I see from them is the big tubs of those awesome cheese balls. If those are any indication of the quality of the rest of their products: I really wanna try Hydrox.
Used to see hydrox as a kid but haven’t for a while now. I’ll choose UTZ over any Frito Lay product. I’ll choose Humpty Dumpty over any UTZ product though. People are missing out on the ultimate overly seasoned potato chip.
