It’s the Ron Jeremy of food porn.

I’m not OP.

Those are wax beans.

Those are wax beans.

I was the first person to post on the pluriverse in 2008.

Is it possible the heavy traffic is causing Lemmy to temporarily block this person and not actually crashing the instance?

Savory donut

0 stars! Restaurant made me toss my own salad.

Welcome to my block list. I guess I’m power tripping.

🤤

You had me until capers. I don’t see how anyone can enjoy that overpowering flavor. Especially on a sandwich that has the delicate flavors of salmon and cream cheese.

You can doom scroll without the current video looping, though.

Why do short videos have to loop automatically with no way to turn it off? Who the hell decided that was a good idea and why has every other app followed suit?

I especially hate the ones designed to loop because they think it’s “so clever”.

Ah, I did not know that. Must be a lot of mods that don’t know that either because I see foreign language communities all the time.

Isn’t that what the scaled sorting in v0.19 is supposed to fix?

The language settings do not work. Some hugely high percentage of comments and posts have an “undetermined” language because Lemmy doesn’t force you to choose a language when submitting something. And then there is federated content from programs that don’t even have a language setting.

If you block “undetermined”, you block almost all content, and then there’s no point in even being here.

What we might need is code to identify the language of a comment and assigning it automatically while allowing it to be changed if it makes a mistake. I imagine it would annoy multilingual people having to switch their configured language every time they make a comment, so just make it automatic by using a language model. That’s the kind of thing a language model would be really good at.

Until we have something like that, the language settings are useless.

I’m sorry, but I will continue to downvote exactly one post in every stupid anime community right before I block it. We don’t need a separate community for every single anime ever made clogging everyone’s feed with boring pictures of characters.

My single downvote in each community is helping to shape Lemmy as a whole, and I’m certain it’s very effective at doing so. It’s definitely not just a childish tantrum. No, sir!

Here’s the recipe without the code formatting that makes it impossible to read:

Ingredients:

• 4 - 28oz cans San Marzano Peeled Tomatoes (whole or blended depending on whether you like chunky or smooth, you can also blend 3 cans and add the last one whole for a mix) (tip for shopping for these: prefer DOP if you can afford it and also look for cans with the LEAST amount of ingredients, san marzano “style” is fine) (if the canned tomatoes you buy has calcium chloride added, PUREE IT. Calcium chloride essentially “embalms” the tomatoes making them firm and difficult to break down naturally, ie from heat)
• 1 - 6oz can tomato paste
• 1 tsp salt
• 1 tsp black pepper
• 1 tsp dry basil
• 1 tsp dry parsley
• 1 tsp dry thyme
• 1 tsp crushed red pepper
• 1 small/medium yellow onion. Minced.
• 1 head garlic. Minced.
• ½ cup extra-virgin olive oil (add between 3 tbsp to up to an entire cup, I like my sauce a bit oilier so I add more)
• ½ cup red wine (Cabernets or Pinot Noir) (optional)
• 1 tsp crushed red pepper
• 2 - 3 bay leaves
• Parmesan rind (optional)

Instructions:

1. Heat olive oil in a pot on medium-low. Then add the onions. Cook until onions are translucent.
2. Add garlic and sauté for 30-60 seconds. Stir constantly to keep garlic from burning.
3. Add tomato paste and stir until onion, garlic, tomato paste mixture is uniform.
4. Add all 4 cans of tomatoes into the pot. Add red wine, salt, crushed red pepper, black pepper and bay leaves. Mix well. Partially cover with lid, and simmer on LOW heat for 2+ hours. Stir every so often to avoid burning. Note: if using a parmesan rind, add it in this step and let it simmer with sauce until finished. Remove and discard rind when ready to serve.
5. Near the 2 hour mark, add basil, parsley and thyme. Remove bay leaves and discard. Mix and taste. Season with additional salt & black pepper if needed.

Yeah, I think so. I downloaded the recommended app, connected to the recommended server, added a channel, tried to ask my question, and BAM! That was it.
