Artemis has been so quiet. Does this mean anything for the app itself? It’s been lacking kbin.social support for months despite it “coming soon” for just as long. Nothing from the dev either.

“Worth their time” ? Copy\paste the text into Mastodon. Post Done

I can empathize with the reluctance to completely jump ship but it costs nothing (both money and time) to cross post to another platform.

Hi. Nobody here 👋 I enjoy Mastodon and although nowhere near the same engagement as Shitter, I enjoy the content more. Some people like different things

American here. Have unlimited PTO. It’s definitely not the norm but it does exist. I came from a company with only 2 weeks paid time off (total).

eddietrax,
@eddietrax@dmv.social avatar

I hear you and everyone who has said the same thing. But that’s just not the case with me or anyone at my company. My boss just came back from a month long vacation. I’ve already taken 3 weeks and plan to take plenty more. We’re asked to deliver on our projects and we get stuff done. I’m not afraid of taking advantage of what’s promised to me which is outlined in the contract I signed. Again, your miles may vary.

Wondering the same. Or any updates in general.

I agree that not everyone should be a dog owner and/or parent.

But dogs are awesome and maybe the problem isn’t the dogs in the commenter’s experience, maybe that person just sucks?

I was really excited for firefish. Ditched my main Mastodon account in place of it and tried it out for a month. Aside from the slowness, and the constant downtime, I found the dev’s attitude off putting. I get it, you’re doing most of this yourself, you’re under pressure, and you have a regular life. But the constant negativity with the user base trying to figure out how this site worked was a turn off. Not sure how people are supposed to get excited about your project when you yourself seem to be annoyed by it.

I moved to firefish.social from Mastodon partially because of how firefish boasted how superior they were over Mastodon and the lack of features. But there’s one feature Mastodon has working for it: Uptime

New Rockstars has a great recap of Rebels. Nothing for Clone Wars yet but although I’m a huge fan of both, I definitely missed some details on the deep dive.

Ex Apollo user here. Dropped Reddit as soon as Apollo shut down and haven’t looked back. Occasionally a Reddit post will return in my search but that’s about it for Reddit.

I’m seeing an uptick of crashing when scrolling which is the main annoyance. It’s a TestFlight so I understand and I’m constantly submitting bugs. But Artemis is what I’m holding out for as my main Fedi app. Unfortunately it can’t be my daily driver in its current state.

Also, I know this is a nice to have feature request, but man would it be nice to be able to block users (unless I’m missing something).

Fermented jalapenos with herbs

This year I have lots of jalapenos. Now I want to experiment a little bit. I want to make a hot green sauce with different herbs. A list of herbs I want to use: basil, salad burnet, parsley, cress, chives, borage, sorrel, chervil. Any ideas how to do this? Should I ferment the herbs in vacuum bags seperated from the chillis?...

eddietrax,
@eddietrax@dmv.social avatar

I just made a green hot sauce from my Jalapeños and used garlic, lime juice, white distilled vinegar, cilantro, and red onion from the garden. I agree adding the fresh herbs at the end. But most importantly, don’t do like I did and remove the seeds. It ended up not hot at all. But it tastes amazing!

Jungle/DnB DJ/Producer here for the past 10 years. Juno download for anything I purchase. Email promo lists for everything else.

A lot of label owners (including myself) will email out new promo weeks before the official release. If you can help promote their music, they will add you to their promo contact list. I’m at the point now where I don’t need to buy anymore music and get stuff before most folks.

I still buy music when there’s something I hear that I must have, but not so much anymore.

Happy to answer any questions

eddietrax,
@eddietrax@dmv.social avatar

It also depends on what genre you’re playing out. I find better Jungle|Dnb on Juno download compared to Beatport. For House or Techno, Beatport is better imo

Thanks for sharing the info as I’m sure there will be a few folks to jump on this. Personally, I don’t want anywhere near this.

Well a tornado hit our area and we’ve been without power for 3 days now. So I’m sure my fridge smells like shit.

Waking up on a cold winter’s morning to the smell of bacon, coffee, biscuits\gravy, and warming my back with my siblings next to my grandparents wood furnace. Every once and awhile one of those smells will take me back. It’s really hard to put into words. I kind of lose my breathe and get this impending doom knowing those warm memories will forever be a distant memory. Creating new memories is what keeps us moving forward but those days of comforting innocence will never be relived.

Yeah that was rough. This might be the first, maybe second time an unblurred NSFW made it through. But it was not good. I immediately blocked the user.

I think my experience with Kbin will improve with an official app. Been on this Artemis beta waiting list since Obama was in office it feels like.

Stay your ass at Reddit then. Problem solved for everyone.

eddietrax,
@eddietrax@dmv.social avatar

Ahh, edited that thanks! I was in a little bit of a time crunch trying to make this for my gf for a little get together she was having. First time cooking tofu so I could have done a little more research haha. Next time I will definitely press it for much longer. But it turned out surprisingly good. Thanks for the tip!

Help making light brews (lemmy.world)

I am doing some experiments with my neglected chemex trying to reproduce a look and a taste from a coffee shop in town a number of years ago. The taste was light and tea-like with lots of flowery and fruity high notes and not too much body weighing it down, so not much caramel or chocolate kind of notes, that sort of thing. The...

I don’t have anything to add but I just wanted to say these communities and discussions are exactly why I’m here. Informative, helpful, and just good vibes all around.

Time and keeping busy are the only things that help. You’re going to obsess over this regardless, but it will get better with time. Just try to keep your mind occupied.

@eddietrax@dmv.social avatar

I initially started on Lemmy.ml but decided to look for smaller instances. Not only just to be safe for stuff like this, but also to find a tighter community. I found an instance dedicated to the area I grew up around and have been really happy with that move.

This article is from September of last year. Is this still a thing? I cancelled my Twitter account around that time last year and rarely used it when I had it.
