Lemmy is also primarily used by super nerds who don't care about sportsball. Not enough normies here compared to Reddit.

I like Only Yesterday. There's just something appealing about getting away from a stifling job in the city and just going out to live in the country for fun, even if just for a week.

Palestinian philosopher and writer Edward Said was also famously in favor of a one-state solution which granted equal rights to Palestinians.

I think that is honestly the only way forward, but feel like it will take extended intervention by a foreign government or international organization to enforce. And I am guessing that really means extended at this point.

Firewall issue perhaps?

I have some links fail to load while I'm at work unless I use a VPN. Should do all browsing at work from VPN, to be honest.

Ahh okay, I think I get what you're getting at. It's like how if you dry off after a shower, your towel is damp and not wet because you're just looking at saturation.

I'd be surprised if other languages call the air "wet" because that's an English word. In Chinese, we'd call humidity 湿度 which means "degree of wet".

But then what is humidity if not a measurement of how wet the air is?

If air with 0% humidity can be called dry, then air with humidity can be called wet.

Language isn't perfect and it's often contextual. If someone wants to describe a property of water based on a newer usage in physics, maybe choose a newer word.

I mean I'd say that counts as wet.

That...is actually a good point. I have a feeling that if it were cropped and I was using the standard view of my Lemmy app that shows images as cards, it would be really stretched out and cropped at the sides to try to make it fit the standard margins.

Douse it in herbs and lemon, fantastic dish.

It's unchanged, even now.

No arguments here. I used to love Geoguessr when it was 100% free, but have never once paid for it since they switched to a subscription model. I just blame Google more than Geoguessr is all.

Depending on who you ask, a lot. Or very little.

For me today, though, it was the large downtime earlier. It's big by Fediverse standards, microscopic by Reddit standards, and as-is it struggles to keep stable uptime some days.

The only thing that would have me worried, even given these examples, is the fact that the current supreme court seems to enjoy wiping their ass with precedent.

They haven't been afraid to dismiss older rulings, or to say that this time is somehow different than before because it'd be more convenient.

Sous vide was a game changer for me. I don't use mine often but break it out when I want to convince people I am not terrible at cooking.

Just wish that it wasn't necessary to use so much plastic for it. If there was any sort of plant-based film that food could be sealed in instead, it'd be perfect.

Honestly I think it's hideous. Wish they would take this one back to the drawing board. I prefer the sleek and minimalist push they used to have, but now it feels like they're going back in a maximalist direction.

My phone's OS doesn't need to be a theatrical experience with every press or swipe, it just needs to get me from point A to point B as quickly and simply as possible.

Sometimes. Probably should more often, but when you cook something enough times to know when it's done, it makes it a bit redundant.
