So in my country traditional dish is carp with potato salad. Usually we go to short trip around, return at 16:00 and start preparing it. After dinner we open the presents, watch some fairy tale and go to church. I am atheist but at least I can tell that I periodically visit church, nobody needs to know that my period is 1 year.
Howdy y’all! Another week, another update post. This is the third update post, so comment below with your progress, challenges, and next steps. See you all next week, and then a few days after that for the final post for the month. Then we’ll have a week for finishing touches and documenting out projects before the showcase.
I didn’t notice the first two posts. But last week I finished puting together my bike. I had a frame for about a year and procrastinate with picking components.
Usualy this time I making cider but this year all apples fel from the trees before they ripen.
Not much like favourite movie but some interesting ones. I recently listened to podcast about Czech cinematography and there are some worth watching.
“Marečku podejte mi pero” is fun comedy with lots of puns and remembered lines. It stars first Czech professional actor and some that are active to this day.
If you want something from the same guys but more serious “Nejistá sezóna” and “Kolja” (this won Oscar for best foreign film) is also worth watching.
we’re so back. anyways as you can tell by the other pinned post, we’ve been a little busy with a lot of stuff on the backend and that’s probably going to continue into the foreseeable future
Little hectic, I moved and changed jobs and still I had to “visit” my parents sometimes to get my stuff and dealing with paperwork. But it will get better I will probably have everything done today.
I want to talk about our gateway products to open source. You know, that one product or software that made us go, “Whoa, this is amazing!” and got us hooked on the world of open source....
I was finishing a jar of extremely hot peppers (7 pot primos) that I had fermenting on Thanksgiving day. I made a hot sauce with them and cantaloupe. I had them in a pan at a low simmer to meld the flavors. The problem was the steam coming off was potent as hell. It filled the house when everyone was arriving and coughing from...
Friend ask me and another friend, we cook on summer camp together, to cook lunch on his wedding.
He wanted form us to cook meal A we tell him that we didn’t cook it so it will be shtshow, but we could cook meal B, C or D. This didn’t work so we cooked meal A and it was shtshow.
It all started with “fully equipped professional kitchen” whitch wasn’t equipped at all (we were prepared for this). Than few other things go wrong. But the TIFU moment was soup - some miscommunication and bad decisions led to adding the noodles in it too early so you can imagine the porridge it become.
I had a blast afterwards, and too much beer to forget this experience.
My friend then said that it was exactly as he imagined it to be, because his now wife didn’t want another meal.
Three years ago my wife and I got three pet rats. A little over a year later, we added two more, and for a brief moment had a lovely little mischief of five happy boys....
We know that it slows and we decided that we will replace them one by one (we don’t want to eat chicken for straight month).
I am mowing in 2 days from my parents house (jaj after 22 years) so it won’t be my decision. In a case of the pigeons I want to add few pairs for food (easiest way to taste them).
Just inherited a bunch of cucumbers from a friend’s garden. I love them just on their own with some salt, and have made many a salad using them. I’m curious what kinds of fun things you all may use them for. Even if you feel like it’s basic please share as I will be eating cucumbers for the next several days straight lol....
I just tested my new sleeping bag - under 0.5kg rated to -5°C. And realised that I bought/ replaced lots of gear to higher quality gear over few years.
@alyaza is MIA currently, but this weekly thread has been so awesome to see and keep going; so I am making what would be her typical post for this week. Alyaza; stay safe friend, I hope everything is okay....
It would be some sort of tortillas and other types of flatbread.
In theory it is simple just make dough and put it on the iron plates (directly on stove). In practice you stand 2 hours directly above hot wood stove and making 100 of them.
Easy meals are necessary, you can’t make hard to cook meals every day. Only few times we decided to make our lives harder and make sth like tortillas.
Look at my oldest post, there is “oven” we made few years ago and we call it Igorrr.
I and other instructors make bread and other things in it. It is less work to make one big loaf than lots of small tortillas/pitas. I burned ceramic in it this year.
Firefox has been improving drastically in terms of performance with every release. It’s pretty evident in recent months, which is very heartwarming to be honest....
I know some of you have gone complies FOSS, but I believe if the developer wants to make money from their apps, there’s noting wrong with it, as long as they are ethical. So what are your favorite non-foss apps?
This might not be the best place to ask this as you’ll all be asking far more of your phones than I ever will, but I need to buy a mobile phone so friends can get a hold of me when we meet up in a different city next month. The battery on the mobile I bought when I moved two years ago won’t take a charge now....
If you want it only for SMS and calls buy some dumb brick. But if you need more things from it I can’t help you I am dissatisfied with most phones but now I have second hand FP 3 and it is enough for me.
I want to get into self-hosting. I’ve done a bit of self-hosting before using a Raspberry Pi (pi-hole and Discord bots) but I really want to start self-hosting almost everything I can like I’ve seen many people here doing....
Stone? We had only unburned bricks, no right angles, several kinds of walls put together and bulging out to rooms. It is always funny to add or redo some furniture, electric work …
Funniest part of it is that for some parts even exists some drawings, some electric work was made by students (friend was teaching electricians), something done by friends…
I recently started playing GTAV again and sometimes I’ll get in my car and let the radio stations play while I do house stuff. Favorite stations are the 80s one with Kenny Loggins, and West Coast Classics and Rock Radio.
Hello this is my first post on Lemmy, I have been disgruntled with Xiaomi’s stock gallery app and wish to switch to an alternative that will not steal my data.
I am homebrewer (for now). After 6 years I eyeball nearly everything. How my friends put it - you never brew bad beer and it is always different.
There are some software tools but I don’t need to use them (mostly). For hardware/gear I have this DIY Frankenstein monster of brewery which works better than most bought ones I tryed.
Look in brewing community (I linked start guide for beer from there).
For beer you need 2 big pots (I use modified 50l pots) and fermentation vessel. You can start smaller but it takes same time and effort to make 10 or 50l of beer.
Safety - you could get burned. And sometimes need to repaint the kitchen when you make bombs.
So I realized that best feature of these sites (Lemmy, red*it, digg, Tildes …) is that I didn’t know anybody. Yes I know that friend who use it but I don’t know his username and don’t want to “follow” him…...
Recently, I wanted a white board to have a physical list of homemade healthy food available at home. We didn’t have the money for one so we bought some dry-erase markers and taped old paper bags onto the back of the glass of our rarely used china cabinet. I like having a big visible list in the kitchen so my husband and I...
My moto is that alcohol is made for thousands of years - first make it easiest way possible then try something harder. This guide is ment to be that. Also sorry for my mistakes I am not native speaker....
Don’t take it as exact terminology but I call fermented juice cider if it is carbonated (and really don’t care about fruit except of grapes - then it is sparkling wine or champagne). If it has no carbonation then it is wine.
Czechs have more words for differentiation:
Mošt - freshly pressed juice (from all fruits).
Burčák - partially fermented juice.
Cider - fully fermented carbonated drink. This word is imported.
Some cider makers here makes mixes of fruits and still call it cider so it is little mess in terminology. For beer there is lots of specific terms in Czech I really can’t find translation.
