  • Wow… nice!
    Indeed, that reminds me of what I’ve learned of Indian cooking, a little bit. For example, I understand that sauteing seeds like cumin and coriander (getting back to cilantro, hah) in “ghee” (clarified butter) is a great / classic way to get the essential flavors of the seeds / ingredients in to the oil component, which can later be transferred towards something else that’s freshly cooked, like dal (lentils) or pollo.




  • Pardon the late reply, and wow, sounds interesting. As well as hugely practical. oO
    Thanks for the extensive reply!

    I wish I could say I understood this ‘bot’ stuff better. For example, it seems some instances allow the creation and auto-administration of bot accounts, but I don’t think mine does (lemm.ee). It sounds like for other instances, though, that’s something of a feature.

    To be clear-- the goal for my community would be to have a scheduled bot drip daily or semi-daily content, freeing me up to work on longer-form pieces.

    There was in fact a 3rd-party tool that worked exactly that way for a while, but it seems it eventually broke due to a key update by the Lemmy software.




  • Oy, these comments… oO

    So, I have a passing familiarity with David, based on the French Revolution, but didn’t realise until just now what a crazy opportunist he was upon… well, leap-frogging leaders and interests in order to protect his own hide, over the years!

    Not sure of the raw numbers and such, but I’d guess that plenty of other people in the arts tried to play that game, but crashed & burned, so to speak. :S










  • This was already touched on earlier, but I wanted to add on a bit:

    The idea comes from how Reddit handles it (MultiReddits) but from my experience it’s a feature not many people made use of, and it sounds like a pain to have to constantly create and manage new multi-communities to group together duplicate communities. This shouldn’t be a task that users have to manually do.

    This is a pretty bad or maybe just naive take that IMO doesn’t sum things in a productive way upon Multi-Reddits. That is-- 1) it arguably doesn’t matter a bit how many people make use of it, as each person’s MR is going to be a custom affair, and it works at the individual user level anyway, 2) on the contrary, it’s no trouble at all to build your MR’s either quickly or painstakingly, and you can spread that effort across weeks, months and even years. In the end, I find MR’s fantastically useful as super-custom feeds that you can use to stay focused on a tight range of topics.

    Unfortunately, these kinds of half-baked conclusions tend to suggest to me that OP doesn’t have a whole lot of familiarity with either platform at this time. That said, there’s a lot of interesting ideas in the article, it’s just a little disappointing in various places.

    It’s still a 3 pound bird spine busting mammals and birds 4 or 5 times their size.

    Yeap, I think that’s the main point, despite our squabblings, hier und da.
    I.e.-- raptors and carnivores of the feline-variety have an almost magical-ability to OWN their prey, so to speak, physics be damned.
