The key is to know which rules to break with which customer though. That’s the hard part.

Well at least it’s clear you only want to know this so you can troll, I’m sorry, I mean “avoid censorship.”

I’m glad it works for you, but I always hated getting to work very sweaty and then being smelly for the rest of the day when I biked.

I go to great lengths to not use Amazon but in the US, unless you live in a large urban area Amazon and Walmart have systematically run most smaller, neighborhood retailers out of business already. If I wanted to go to a bookstore that wasn’t a Barnes and Noble, I would need to drive about an hour and a half.

I used to really love music discovery on Spotify. I now find it’s the same ald songs over and over. It finds what you like and reinforces that rather than gradually expand it.

I’m in the same boat. For years now it’s felt like every daily mix and discovery playlist is 10 songs I recently just listened to on repeat and then 2 songs that aren’t even tangentially related and I’m left questioning why they were being shown to me.

I’m glad I’m not the only one who found the world resets frustrating. I agree that the world is interesting and atmospheric, but as someone who enjoys thoroughly exploring, the resets just kept ruining my immersion into the world. Maybe one day I’ll go back to the game.

You can Ctrl+select multiple languages. Do you also have Undetermined+English+whatever else is relevant set?

In my experience the federation issues others are referring to don’t report missing comments because they aren’t technically there on anything but the home instance so I’m inclined to believe it’s something different.

Go to your settings and make sure your language preferences include “undetermined” as well as your preferred languages. Lemmy only shows comments that match your preferences.

That’s definitely the case then as most major instances pushed updates around then. Lemmy.World has been particularly bad since it’s still running on the old 0.18.x version of Lemmy.

The bugs have been opened and the devs made aware of the issues. For now just be patient as things get worked on as it is the holiday season.

You’re not shadow banned and I don’t believe that’s a thing. The newer versions of Lemmy 0.19.0/1 have issues with federation to other instances. If you are posting comments to another instance it is likely not being seen by anyone.

I don’t even know if you’ll see this comment.

Caramelization is a specific chemical change to the sugars in the onions. Brown =/= Caramelized and will affect the flavor significantly so you really shouldn’t cut corners.

If I’m commiting the time to do it I just make sure to make as much as I can fit in my pot.

But true caramelization on onions is still like 45-60 minutes of constant attention. It’s not difficult, but it does require a lot of time and effort. You’re not getting a caramelization in 15 minutes without a pressure cooker and even then they taste like nothing so what’s the point?

Too lazy to cook

Caramelize some onions

I know you clarified that they can just be to translucent, but it’s hilarious to me that the first step to a lazy meal is to spend 45 minutes caramelizing onions.

On top of the other comments, I’d also like to point out that it’s a little unfair to blame a brand new fediverse user for not understanding how it works.

I know I certainly didn’t understand how it worked with my first account, but you learn over time by using and interacting. You need to make an account first though to get to that point. Lemmy.world is a safe option for a new user who probably doesn’t understand the specifics of the decision of where to make an account.

Personally I just block the entire community if all posts are made up of Reddit mirrors. If that’s all the posts that are there, that’s probably all there ever will be. It just clutters up my feed otherwise. There are a handful of lower post volume communities that I have mild interest in that I’ve let slide but it seems to have worked well so far.

All the options are pretty much all or nothing at this point. You can block the community the bot is posting to or disable bot posts being visible in entirety in your settings.

It released the same year as FF8 and managed to have insanely more depth. It squeezed every last ounce of performance out of that system.

I had always avoided the Kings Field series because it looked like the gameplay didn’t age well, but honestly after playing through Lunacid I think I have to seriously give them a try.

I’m also watching a retrospective on the development of Vagrant Story right now and as a jrpg fan it’s wild to me that I never knew it existed back in the day. What they were able to accomplish in a PSX game is crazy. It makes me want to give it a try also

I agree and it’s getting to the point where it’s almost unusable for me too.

Every “Spotify” playlist which is what they shove down your throat in every search consists of the same few dozen songs that it thinks I want to listen to. Well if I wanted to listen to the same EDM playlist I’ve already created for myself, I would Spotify. I have to search for specific albums to get any value from the service these days, but that’s difficult when it doesn’t really introduce me to any new music.

People in general have a hard time conceptualizing how large and empty space is. With our current propulsion technology it will take longer than the human lifespan, barring any absolutely groundbreaking cryonics developments, to reach even the Oort cloud of our own solar system.

I think in the next century, a reasonable goal is to have small sparsely manned mining outpost settlements on Mars. There’s enough financial incentive where I could see a future where it happens.

As the original comment implied, AP News and Reuters are reasonably unbiased in reliable in terms of their coverage. They do have a US focus so a lot of the pieces need to be read through that specific lens. Sometimes the omission of information is just as important and what is included.
