I can’t decide if that would be too sweet with the apple sauce base. That might have to be an experiment :)

That’s a good point. I haven’t cooked anything with apple that could go soggy for years, so I hadn’t thought of that. Pulled pork and apple pizza is sounding nice though :)

Why is apple a bad idea? Apple with pork and cheese is delicious :)

I’m Welsh, and my wife is a Welsh speaker, and we both missed that one 🙈🤣

I like it! 😁

I didn’t say that it was being used to represent anyone, or that it was being stolen, I said that it was already in use. To use your examples, I’d think that using Pi or the degree symbol to represent the fediverse would be a bad idea too, as they could also lead to confusion. The semicolon is punctuation, so there’s less chance of confusion with that.

If an astronomy group made a poster with the three stars, would the stars be representing star clusters, or advertising that they’re on the fediverse? Given that the fediverse is still relatively small, is there more chance of the stars being seen as an astronomical symbol?

Am I misunderstanding this - you want to replace a recognised symbol with a symbol that’s already being used by another group? That seems counterproductive at best.

I’m also wondering, have you spoken to anyone with poor eyesight? This is my reply to a comment below suggesting that the new symbol would be easier to read:

I’m reading this thread on mobile, and the fediverse logo next to the community name is much easier to see than the three stars. If I didn’t already know what the three stars were from the rest of the post, I wouldn’t have a clue what they were supposed to be in the body. They look like a blurry capital A. Obviously the fediverse logo is bigger there, which helps, but it’s not significantly bigger, and would still be clearer at a smaller size

They don’t shove them to the side, they put the new kidney in the front 👍

Freespirit Graham.

My father used to book acts for a local club, and this guy played there once. He was awful. There’s no nice way to say it, he just really wasn’t very good. He played and sang songs that nobody recognised, and did it badly. To make things worse, he was paid, but went around with his hat at the end of the set asking people for money. Needless to say, he didn’t get a good reception.

About a year or so later, my father booked another singer, and it was the same guy going under a different name. The music night was popular, so there was a decent sized crowd already there when he walked in, and quite a few of them remembered him. My father asked him what he was doing there, and he said that he thought it was worth a try.

He was told to leave without playing, as the people who remembered him were already annoyed, and weren’t the type of people to suffer a fool kindly.

Pizza Hut - Domino’s - local takeaway - Papa John’s

The Pizza Hut does fantastic pizza, but doesn’t deliver, and is too far away to get takeaway from.

Domino’s is ok. They do decent pizza, but have been getting more and more stingy with the cheese, and are hideously expensive.

The local takeaways all use the same supplier, and the pizzas are average. They can be amazing from time to time, but that’s the exception.

Papa John’s opened here a few years ago, so we tried it. The pizza was so bad that none of us finished it

Not on your lives, MI5

That’s a good idea :)

Whether it’s true or not, veganism is associated with self righteous people, and also with complicated diets and the lack of nutrients nonsense. Plant based food isn’t, and sounds like it’s something that you can just pick up while you’re shopping, rather than trying to figure out what you’re supposed to do with quinoa and tofu.

Just to note, this doesn’t apply to the UK. Our trains are generally useless and expensive.

Top Gear was around in the 70s?

;)

This any good for you?

If Nancy Wilson was the singer, yes. I was listening to the song recently and thought that Katey Sagal was singing it, especially when they sing the ‘Ooh, barracuda’ part.

Here’s something that might blow your mind - watch a few episodes, then listen to Barracuda by Heart.

It’s not her :o

I don’t think we see the scientist again, but the SG team leader turns up a few times. I honestly can’t remember if he does anything that stands out though 🤷🏻‍♂️
