lemillionsocks, to news in Stockholm to ban petrol and diesel cars from centre from 2025

They make make more noise while accelerating which I would presume would be something that happens often in a city center with lots of stops and starts.

lemillionsocks, to food in Favorite secrets, tips & tricks in the kitchen?

Huh I use wooden spoons but Ive never used a wooden spatula but I could see how a well made one could get better than a plastic one, but peeling power of a metal baby cant be beaten.

lemillionsocks, to food in Your favourite cooking channels/youtubers?
@lemillionsocks@beehaw.org avatar

I love Emmymade. She seems so nice and upbeat in her videos and she covers so many recipes, most of which are very doable or at least weird and interesting(like her hard times stuff). I also like how normal she is in the kitchen. At this point I dont know how much of it is manufactured to make her more “relatable” and how much are organic kitchen errors but it gives her this very normal enthusiastic person just cooking vibe that I dig.

Ann Reardon is another fave. From her tiny miniature(as in model miniature) house with functional kitchen, to her genuinely good looking recipes, to her popular debunking series. Everything she creates is well researched and well tested.

mangasee is pretty solid and usually has higher quality than average uploads.

Ive seen on some other threads that skylines 2 is able to get better frames if you turn off some settings like fog and depth of field and that it’s likely these two effects specifically that are borked.

lemillionsocks, to memes in rules for thee, but not for me
@lemillionsocks@beehaw.org avatar

A lot of moderated instances with vague rules like that have quite a bit of nuance. The mods usually arent jerks looking to ban everyone who doesnt agree with them, and if they are then they did you a favor good riddance. One of the issues with the classic “but mah free speech” sea lioning that occurs on reddit is it makes it hard to actually keep things moderated and civil. People get outraged and start going “the rule says that Im not allowed to be an asshole, but I was specifically being a asshat and I think if you really wanted no asshats you should make a rule about it”

Which does lead to granular rules that actually do remove nuance and discretion from enforcement.

lemillionsocks, to memes in Vegan food: The west vs India
@lemillionsocks@beehaw.org avatar

Thats a tricky one if they dont like the texture its hard to say. You can maybe make a dish with a less firm tofu thats softer if thats something she’s ok? Maybe do a ma po tofu with rice or something vaguely related.

Have you tried the classic of crispy tofu blocks? Just cube the tofu, toss in cornstarch and fry until the outside is good and crispy. Serve with rice and some kind of sauce or even eat it alone dusted with salt and pepper.

lemillionsocks, to memes in Vaccine research vs. anti-vax research
@lemillionsocks@beehaw.org avatar

I dont care for how this meme seems to be shitting on toilet research. Not defending the anti-vaxer but you can learn quite a bit while on the toilet

lemillionsocks, to news in China is flooding Taiwan with disinformation: With elections looming, China wants Taiwanese voters to think America is their greatest threat
@lemillionsocks@beehaw.org avatar

With what happened in Hong Kong recently I imagine it can’t be too effective in the short term, but at the same time the slow trickle of disinformation and whataboutism and bots online preaching their BS can have a way of radicalizing and turning people.

And it’s not like the US’ trackrecord doesnt make it easy to show examples of us doing wrong around the world.
