what are your recommendations for a good privacy friendly sms app?

Hello, currently I use qksms but its very problematic and lacks basic fetures. One of those issues being you cant send videos, and sending and recieving media is pixalated or blurry because of a commpresion issue. I’ve already tried adjusting the compresion options in settings to find out it doesn’t work....

Cheradenine,

If they won’t change to something better like SimpleX then you could use github.com/wrwrabbit/Partisan-SMS . It is a fork of qksms that adds privacy, it will do nothing for video quality or anything else though.

Cheradenine,

How is your cheesemaking going? I remembered your post from a few months ago.

Cheradenine,

That’s what I do, or simmer chilies in coconut cream and let people add that.

Cheradenine,

While I agree, and I use TOR or Orbot for everything( which means quite a few things are blocked for me), this doesn’t answer OP’s question.

Cheradenine,

The ratio of heavy whipping cream and chocolate should be 1:2.

That was my thought, thick Ganache. Thicker than what you would use for topping cheesecake. The whole recipe can be distilled to the above quote.

Milo? What do you do with it?

I was gifted a 900 Gram bag of Milo (I assume that’s some shrinkflation crap). I love Malt and Cocoa, but this is bland and chalky. What do I do with it? So far I have tried it hot and cold on its own and mixed in coffee hot and cold. My next thought was using it in baked goods, something like an American Brownie....

Cheradenine,

Ovaltine is more malty than this (though I don’t love that either). It could be what you grew up on.

My thought was add more cocoa, and make a Brownie or a sponge.

To me it does not have the sweetness of malt, or the bitterness of cocoa, both of which I love.

I will keep playing around with it.

Cheradenine,

arstechnica has a pretty good writeup about this.

As with all things Google the only way to win is to not play.

What phone do you sugest for your grandparents?

I got a task to buy a smart phone for my grandparents, they are not techsavy but they know how to use basic functions. Iam looking for an andoid because it has language pack i need. I dont need it to have lots of functions, onley a good camera and a big screen. Bonus points if it can be flashed with some kind of simplefied...

(Discussion) 2 day cold ferment, underproofed, underbaked, Tomato and Olive Bread (sh.itjust.works)

I cut 2 slices off, and they were terrible, as the title says. Gummy, flavor not fully developed. Exactly what I want. This is what I want from a sandwich bread. I will slice and toast this for the next few days. Toasting will firm it up, develop Maillard reactions, and allow any liquid to be sponged up. Marinated Pork Belly,...

Cheradenine,

It’s the confluence of Readymades and Primitivism

Cheradenine,

Hopefully someone with more cheesemaking experience will reply. I don’t know enough about it to say. I would not eat anymore of it without knowing more about the cause.

There are cheeses that are very strong and ‘bad tasting’ to many people, Casu Marzu and Époisses for example, but the smell and flavor is more of Ammonia, not at all what you are describing.

Good luck on your journey.

Cheradenine,

I have actually never broken one. Peel the leaf from the chocolate, not the other way round. The darker the chocolate the more brittle it will be I think. As long as the leaves aren’t huge I don’t think you will have a problem.

Cheradenine,

For cakes I like using leaves brushed with chocolate.

Wash some green leaves (preferably something non toxic), dry, chill in fridge, brush with melted chocolate, chill again, peel the leaf from the chocolate.

Cheradenine, (edited )

Garlic will repel aphids on some plants, but other aphids will feast on garlic, it depends on the climate. A spray of water with a little soap and a pinch of salt is lethal to most aphids. The soap helps make it stick.

Garlic spray is my goto for dealing with pests from bugs to cats. Most things hate it, it smells like hell.

Put a few cloves in a spray bottle, leave it in the sun for a few days, add a pinch of salt and a little soap.

Cheradenine,

It was not built by government though. Railways, streetcars, etc. were private for profit enterprises, that later were acquired by governments.

Cheradenine,

Hey, those came out great.

I use something similar when I make soup with roasted squash, chestnut and mushroom.

Time to ditch #duckduckgo (lemmy.world)

In the last couple of months I have noticed an increasing trend of supplying me search results that are completely unrelated to the current query and tie back to my location or previous searches. I can say this with a high degree of certainty this is without a doubt beyond the 100th instance this has happened....

Cheradenine,

Yes like many other search providers you can set to all, or whatever, but ddg will always localize your searches.

Cheradenine,

rethinkdns.com pick from a set list, Tracking, Malware etc. or pick individual lists i.e. just Facebook.

‘Rethink DNS supports over 190+ blocklists, some of which power popular adblockers like uBlockOrigin.’

Cheradenine,

If I remember right it is a Searx fork. That company also makes a Webview browser, and a Firefox fork for Android.

Cheradenine,

No one in my family could cook, at all. I say that as someone who would happily eat Spaghetti-O’s cold from the can after turning it upside down so all the pasta was now on ‘top’.

Cheradenine,

Grandma Helen is offended, as it was her goto in the summer.

Agreed, I don’t remember touching on that one though.

It can be really good though, don’t cook the pasta for three hours, don’t use that McCormick Dill you got as a wedding gift in 1946, etc.

Fresh herbs, aioli, slightly less than al dente pasta.

Cheradenine,

Though access is limited, they do have the tech thanks to their friends to the north. I can’t find the link, but they have their own Great Firewall implementation
