s20, to linux in Rhino Linux 2023.1, how we made the distro

So… is it Snap infected err… Snap based, like Ubuntu? Because otherwise it looks kinda neat.

s20, to linux in Fuck it, give me your most OVERRATED Distros

Gonna go with Manjaro. I can’t, for the life of me, understand why it gets the support it does. It’s not fantastic to begin with, with an apparently incompetent management team. Add in that all the theming is flat and lifeless, and I’m just confused.

I mean, any Arch derived distro with an “easy installer” kinda confuses me. Archinstall is fairly easy to use (although a bit ugly), and most other Arch based distros seem to miss what I see as the main point of Arch: getting to know and personalize your system. So things like Endeavor, Xero, etc. Don’t make a lot of sense to me either. But at least they’re not effectively accidentally DDOSing the AUR…

s20, to cooking in What're your favourite food smells? This has to be top 3 for me!

I recently made homemade treats for my dog using sweet potatoes and oat flour. My whole house smelled like roasted sweet potatoes for hours afterwards, and it was like being in heaven’s kitchen.

  • 2 cups oat flour
  • 2 teaspoons baking powder
  • 1 cup sweet potatoes, cooked peeled, and mashed
  • 1 egg
  • 1 tablespoon maple syrup (optional)
  1. In a bowl, combine oat flour and baking powder. Mix well.
  2. In a larger bowl, combine sweet potatoes, egg, and maple syrup. Mix well.
  3. Add oat mixture to sweet potato mixture and mix until it forms a dough. It should be similar to cookie (US)/biscuit (other places) dough in consistency. If it isn’t, add more oat flour until you get it there. (Don’t worry about overworking the dough; oat flour is gluten free.)
  4. Shape the dough into cylinders about 1.5 to 2 cm in diameter (about an inch). Wrap in plastic wrap and refrigerate for an hour or overnight.
  5. Preheat oven to 350F or 175C
  6. Either cut the treats from the cylinder about 1/2cm (1/4in) thick. Arrange on a baking tray, leaving a little space between each.
  7. Bake until just starting to brown, about 8 to 10 minutes.
  8. Allow to cool completely on a cooling rack. Your chewy treats are done; store in the fridge, keeps for a couple weeks.
  9. Optionally, after they’ve cooled, you can put them back in the oven at 200F or 100C for about an hour. This will turn them into shelf stable, crunchy treats that will will keep for, like, a long time in an airtight container. It’s basically hard tack.

You can swap out the sweet potato with peanut butter, cooked squash, or cooked pumpkin and it still works.

ETA: you can also use whole wheat flour as long as you don’t overwork the dough. If you do, you can drop the egg; it’s only there as a binder, and gluten gets the job done fine.

Most dogs (including mine) can digest gluten just fine. It can, however, interfere with digesting zinc. Huskies and a few other breeds sometimes have difficulty absorbing zinc. Hence this recipe, made for my adorable husky mix.

As a side note, if you throw in another tablespoon of maple syrup and 1/4 teaspoon of salt, these make pretty tasty people treats, too.

Your friends are nuts. That’s delicious.

s20, to privacy in Meeting new roommates for college and I suggested Signal and this was someone's response. I hate Gen Z.

I hate Gen Z

Dude. I have a group that only talks on Facebook Messenger. It’s 100% Gen X and Millennials. Don’t blame the generation, it just makes you sound like an old man yelling “get off my lawn”.

s20, to linux in Systemd-Free Immutable Distro Nitrux 2.9.1 Is Out Powered by Linux Kernel 6.4

I went to DL it and try it out, and… dude, I hate Sourceforge. I know how privileged this sounds, but I’m not spending a half hour DLing something that I can DL in a minute and a half somewhere else.

Anybody got a line on a torrent?

s20, to asklemmy in Be honest, do you still use reddit?

I go there through Tedit sometimes when info I need comes up in a search, but I haven’t logged in or browsed the site directly since the API protest blackout.

Weird how I seem to have more free time now. Must be a coincidence.
