I've never heard of mujico, either positively or negatively. However, if your instance was blocked by my instance or by lemmy.ml, wouldn't I not be seeing this post?
So, what's your instance about? I'm intrigued!
In the context you've given, sure! I like it but I have trouble believing people when they say it.
Not saying that the person in the post is correct in conflating those words, I don't think that's accurate at all.
However, it is disheartening to see so many ill-informed comments about fatness here... It's way, way more complicated than just "calories in/calories out". Even the extent to which it's unhealthy is more complicated; obesity is linked to higher risk of heart disease, but also linked to higher probability of surviving strokes/etc. A lot of the problem stems from the fact that BMI is a nearly useless metric.
Makes sense to me, nothing to add! I hope the fediverse gets better for marginalized people...
Unfortunately Lemmy being a reddit-like platform, there's likely gonna be a bunch of reddit-like people in these comments saying reddit-like things that go against one or all of these guidelines.
One of my boyfriends is in the middle of forcing me to watch all of Naruto, and honestly I hate it so far? Once you're a couple seasons into Shipuden they interrupt every single episode of actual progress with like 5 episodes of unnecessary flashbacks. Also the message is terrible, it's misogynistic as hell and damn near fascistic.
For the One Piece fans here, I'm getting the impression that it's like almost exactly the opposite. Is that true? If so we're watching that next for sure.
The outlawing of supreme leaders.
I do! We have them where I live and this has happened to me too lol. I like to consider it a sign of trust that they're willing to get that close to me, even though it's more likely they're just kind of oblivious. Although, they do have the best eyesight of any centipede... so who knows!
I feel like my answer might break AskLemmy's rule 2 about "Overt Politics", but so do a lot of the other answers? Feel free to delete if so.
overtly political answer, also CW for violence.
As far as the current American system goes... nothing. By and large, even laws that seem good are mostly only used in service of the elites, against the people. Consider this series of events:
- In 2015 a white supremacist in South Carolina commits a mass shooting, killing 9 people.
- In 2017, the Georgia state gov expands the state's domestic terrorism laws, directly in response to this shooting, because the previous version wouldn't have covered it.
- In 2022, this expanded law gets used... against people protesting police brutality, who hurt no one, despite the fact that the cops killed one of them.
Unfortunately, this general sequence is not uncommon at all. Neither is the inverse, where the bureaucrats/judges/etc decide "that doesn't count, actually" when it comes to an elite very clearly breaking an existing law, or else changing the law so it doesn't apply to them in retrospect.
Please be nice to houee centipedes, they're friends. They won't hurt you.
Thanks! I hope your huckleberries and raspberries learn to get along, would definitely be nice to have both lol. I try not to think about the dead stuff too much, and just keep rebuilding, but it's hard.
The elderberries are finally starting to ripen and the beautyberries are starting to fruit. The box huckleberry seems to be very happy this year, I dunno why though. The maypops and creeping cucumbers have finally come out, late as they usually do, and are climbing everything. Unfortunately so are the invasive morning glories that I have to keep rescuing everything else from. The young pricklyash is finally starting to look more like a tree than a rose bush. The ostrich and maidenhair ferns are having their second terrible year in a row, not sure what's going on there. Mayapples are very nearly ripe. Finally, the neighbor and landlord have murdered an even greater chunk of the garden. Nearly a third dead to poison...

Sounds like it's a date!
=°-°=
Northeast, but I travel southeast usually at least once a year! How's Lowe Mill in Huntsville sound for a fun date? 😉
I'm not like a huge fan of myself either, so there, we have a thing in common already lol
To all of the people whose reasons are something self-deprecating about their confidence/appearance/personality/etc:
I'll go on a date with you, if you want! ☺
Aside from all the very valid criticisms everyone else has pointed out, there's one thing that always made it totally unusable for me... When you open the app, the very first thing it does is show your front-facing camera?? What kind of unhinged behavior is that, are they trying to ruin my day?!
The 40 hour work week was a goal set by people working way more brutal hours, not infrequently 7 days a week. People fought really hard for decades to change it, and when I say "fought" I mean literally. Many of them were murdered by the state or corporations for it. But they got there.
May I introduce you to the 4/4/4 movement?
This kinda conflates hate for the unethical practices of the company with hate for the quality of their products, which seems unfair. As a company they're definitely bastards. There was a long, long period of time where their products were pretty unquestionably top-notch compared to everything else out there. However, for a while now everything has been going really downhill. Then recently it's really accelerated, especially with them leaning into AI. These days I hardly even miss them anymore.
So about half a year ago somebody posted about Faircamp, a self-hosted open source alt for Bandcamp. It's really awesome, but I thought people might also want to know about a new one called Mirlo. This one is also open source, so it could ostensibly be self-hosted if you wanted, but the main thing is that it's got this flagship hosted option. Very similar to the Bandcamp experience, from the musician side. No techy stuff required at all, so I think this one might be way more user friendly for non-tech savvy folks!
AFAIK, neither Faircamp nor Mirlo have integrated ActivityPub support yet, but it seems entirely possible. Both do currently support subscription via RSS. Honestly I kinda feel like both platforms should collaborate, if they aren't already!
Maybe they could even get hooked up with RadioFreeFedi and do like featured artists and stuff.
Insto: https://www.instagram.com/coprime314/ Twits: https://twitter.com/Coprime31415 I know that we're 5 months late to the meme but here we go! It is finally finished! Here's some of the people who made this happen! https://twitter.com/bluuru https://twitter.com/Burnhard18 https://twitter.com/hiy...
Can't believe none of these have been posted yet lol.
This time of year, there's a zillion of these loudly and clumsily zooming around right outside my backdoor. They're very curious about everything that moves; they'll just like stare you down, hovering a foot in front of your face. Too cute!! They are also kinda eating the landlords mudroom... but so slowly that I'm pretty sure it hardly matters? You just can't be mad at these little fuzzballs! Worth it for the pollination anyway.
I got these as bare-root saplings a couple years old, and planted them last year. One actually bloomed and produced some berries the same year I planted it! These things sure are prolific. This year, they're all already blooming.
I tried a couple things with the handful of berries from last year, i.e. just eating them raw, making juice, jam, etc. Raw was (somewhat predictably) not very good, but the juice and jelly were great. Also, while I don't at all mind supplementing the diets of local fauna, it was nice that the birds actually left us some! Unlike my elderberries, which they picked clean so fast we didn't get a single one lol.
This system is really cool, but it seems like not that many people are playing it. I think the name "suited" is probably not helping the matter... While clever, it makes it kinda hard to google.
It's somewhat of a "rules-lite" type, with all the pros and cons that come with that. One of those cons being that most things are sort of up to the GM's judgement, and I am very new to GMing. With a lot of other similarly rules-lite systems, there's a community offering their experiences and things they found helpful. Suited doesn't seem to have much of that, but maybe some people here have played it and would like to share?
Trying to get the hang of celtic tatting, just working freehand for now. Real celtic tatting patterns are surprisingly uncommon! There are a lot of cool faux ones, but those won't teach me to use these shuttles. It doesn't look very good at all, trying to keep in mind it's just for practice.
This was a perfect project for getting the very basics of tatting down. Every time I made a mistake I just kept plowing ahead, rather than getting frustrated trying to fix it. Now that the motions feel more natural, it'll be easier to advance, maybe? The pattern is from Urban Knot Design. Even though it's chock full of mistakes, I still wet blocked it and will find some use for it somewhere.
I keep learning the bare minimum of tatting and then getting frustrated and giving up... This time I'm gonna stick with it! Please forgive all the horrendous mistakes lol.
Are Lisbeth and DMC the only people left making cordonnet? I'd really like to try more appropriate thread but it seems to barely exist!
File here. This is almost definitely not the best one that anyone's designed, but at least it's a little unique!
The holder parts bend apart to snap brushes in and out, and there's a little shelf above to put your toothpaste on. The shelf has print-in-place hinges so you can print the whole thing flat with no support and it all works with no assembly.
We put this together for my public library's makerspace. I have a bunch of issues with the design, but it does work so what can I say really. Specifically it's this one.
Patrons can use it for whatever they want, i.e. melting dissolvable supports faster, culturing bacteria, etc.
Sorry this isn't actually foraging per se, but the only kind of people who'd grow these are probably foragers anyway. I've been growing them for a couple years, but this is the first year I had enough to bother trying to eat them! From two plants we got about 1/2 a cup.
So my question is, does anyone have any tips for actually eating these things?? We tried soaking them for 24 hours and boiling them for 2 hours, and they were still inedibly bitter! I'm thinking maybe brining them, an alkaline soak, splitting them all in half, and/or swapping out the cooking water a few times. At least one of those ought to work hopefully. It'll have to wait till next year though, we wasted these ones lol.
Specifically this font, although I've tried a few. Specifically in HashLink.
Anyone have any tips or best practices when it comes to fonts and FlxText in general? The default font looks great, but I'm finding that just about every other font I try looks kind of terrible. Like sort of grainy, I guess? The default one looks very crisp in comparison. Also, any non-default font that I put in a FlxButton seems to be vertically way off-center, raised up too high.
Hopefully this kind of content is ok here. Up until recently, when I would be searching for some kind of technical info, the top (and best) results would usually all be Reddit posts. I was very pleasantly surprised to do that this time and find a Lemmy post instead!
...It did happen to be a post from me, so unfortunately didn't answer my question at all, but I still thought it was really neat and wanted to share. Has anyone else seen Lemmy stuff getting indexed and turning up in their search results?
Hi DIY punks! I need a little help with something. I've been trying all sorts of ways to home carbonate things as sustainably as possible. Most have not really worked out as intended, but I'm really really close on this latest attempt. This version is to connect a CO2 tank to a whipped cream dispenser.
Basically, the path from the tank looks like this:
- 5 lb CO2 tank → dual gauge primary regulator.
- Regulator → 5/16" hose.
- 5/16" hose → 5/16" barb to 1/8"NPT male.
- 1/8"NPT male → 1/8"NPT female to 8mm female quick disconnect.
- 8mm female quick disconnect → 8mm male quick disconnect to 3/8"-24UNF female.
...and the path from the dispenser looks like this:
- 1Qrt ISI Gourmet Whip M22 Male → M22 Female.
- M22 Female → "mystery hose".
- "Mystery hose" → "Mystery connection" male.
So, I need an adapter to hook up the 3/8"-24UNF female to the mystery connection. It seems to start screwing in for a couple turns, but then won't go any further, so my guess is that it's the same diameter with different threading? Note that, in the link for the mystery hookup, I removed the TR21-4 at the end, because that's for directly hooking up to a small tank. The mystery connection I'm talking about is the male threaded part you can see screwing into the TR21-4 connector.
It doesn't seem like many people are doing this, or know what most of the industry standard connections actually are. See this thread here for example. Consequently, I have no idea if the mystery eBay hookup I bought even works, despite that being its entire purpose. The interior of the CO2 cartridge puncturing mechanism is a black box to me, so I'm just trusting this M22 connection is all that's required. There's definitely some kind of one-way valve in there, but hopefully it doesn't somehow require being "pushed" by the cartridge itself.
For the first time, I had a lot of Illinois Bundleflower seeds to harvest. I've never cooked or eaten them before, and information online is pretty slim unfortunately. So, I just took a stab at something random. For the filling:
- Desmanthus illinoensis seed/grain
- Manoomin
- Dried crushed rockweed
- Black bean miso
- Vegetable stock
- Cheddar
...all stuffed inside a white scallop pattypan squash. It was... about as okayish as it looks, not fantastic, not terrible. Honestly I thought about posting it to c/ShittyFoodPorn instead 😅
More importantly than the quality of the dish, it turns out Illinois Bundleflower seeds are easy to cook and have decent flavor and texture! So, task failed successfully I guess? Thank you for your time!
It was chilling on a Paulownia tree in Southeast Pennsylvania, U.S. I post more critters on my Pixelfed if anyone's interested.
I post a lot of edible plants native to (roughly) the Northeast U.S. on my Pixelfed account.
