I'm curious as to why the Earl Grey scented isn't more popular.

It's bergamot orange. Citrus fruit shower gels are popular af.

I started reading in other languages for her. To which I credit a lot of my English skills. I couldn't wait for fifth one to be translated so just started reading books in English.

My mom got me onto them though.

I've used rapeseed oil to oil the handles of my knives and whatnot since I couldn't be arsed to buy an oil for that purpose.

Seems to work fine since it's a half-hard oil iirc.

(edit Canola oil for the Americans )

There's a Doctor Who episode with that as it's premise: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oxygen_(Doctor_Who)

The Twelfth Doctor, Bill and an angry Nardole travel in the TARDIS to follow a distress call to a deep-space mining station. When the TARDIS is jettisoned by the station's computers, the trio are forced to wear "smartsuits", robotic spacesuits capable of independent operation tied to the station. The suits are also the only source of oxygen, as the mining company does not provide an oxygen atmosphere inside the station, and every activity is measured in breaths

Well at least our Finnish national dish is still traditional. Take cubed beef and pork. Put them in water. Add salt. Put on heat for a sufficient amount of time.

That's it.

Fancy modern versions have peppers and whatnot but traditionally it's just salt.

Yeah I've had mine for roughly the same time. It's kinda annyoing being anywhere without smart lighting. You have to shut off lights before going to bed, instead of shutting them off after you've climbed under the covers.

And having to put on the lights just to go have a piss in the middle of the night? That would wake me up too much. So I just put on a few red low lights to roughly see where things are without waking myself up.

Then again anyone super into privacy wouldn't probably love these, as as far as I know, having several WiFi using bulbs on the ceiling also means that anyone with access to the data could actually function as movement sensors. So the metadata Hue has about me (or at least could access if they wanted to) would tell them when I'm in bed or in the kitchen or having guests or whatnot. Apparently it's based on the attenuation of the signal strength and based on those numbers you can "see" the object moving from the signal strength changes.

Oh apparently to use it myself I'd need a Hue Pro Bridge, but they came up with the system on the old one. Now the pro version has an analyser in it so makes it work better.

I sort of knew some of this, I think, but definitely not all of it, nor as succinctly.

Thanks!

I don't think having the belief that no-one will love you equals hating women.

That's like depression vs aggression. Sometimes they can overlap, sure, but they're different things.

I have absolutely no hate for women, but also a pretty similar level of belief in that I could be actually loved by someone.

I mean yeah they are RGBWW if you put it like that but wouldn't RGB already include different temps of white? So all of my bulbs are Hue, and yes, they were somewhat of an investment even though my apt is not that huge. Like 300e total years ago though, for uhmm the basic 250e colour set, 5 e36 bulbs hub and remote, and then later I also bought two e14s.

But the LED panel I have is actually a 300w growlight. I couldn't put it on full I'd burn my eyes. But it serves very well as light therapy on the mildest setting. It's not got any adjustments except a dimmer though.

 

Pro-Kremlin propagandists are employing a range of disinformation tactics to deceive Ukrainians, including emotional manipulation, threats, and the creation of fake media outlets and AI-generated visuals. Notably, during the monitoring period, the primary strategy of these propagandists has shifted towards demoralising Ukrainians and spreading widespread discouragement

 

More news like this and less about orange clowns.

Wish the world made sense.

Siberia is a very unique piece of territory that few people truly understand. Due to Russia's war against Ukraine, some interesting trends have emerged in Siberia. In this video, I draw a line through Siberia's dark history, from the Russian Empire, to the Soviet Union, to the Russian Federation. I ask the questions "Would Siberia ever want to secede, and if so, could they?" Then, to tie it all off, I bring China into the picture. Whatever happens, one thing is clear - history in the making is far more fascinating than we ever imagined.

 

The agency said the source of the interference had been traced to Russian territory, and also affected shipping. Other European nations have accused Russia of being behind the jamming, which Moscow denies.

 

North Karelia force says fence dividing Finland and Russia is no Berlin Wall – but it is now a key geopolitical faultline

... In an attempt to strike a note of optimism, he added: “We found a solution in 1944 and I’m sure that we will be able to find a solution in 2025.”

Matti Pitkäniitty, the commander of the North Karelia border guard district, believes illegal border crossings involving Russian defectors are likely to become a growing problem. Pointing to a gap in the vegetation where an old Finnish country lane passed through before the border was redrawn in 1940 after the Russo-Finnish war, resulting in Helsinki ceding part of Karelia, Pitkäniitty said most civilians trying to cross illegally preferred to stick to roads, limiting the number of potential routes.

“People are afraid of those thick forests here,” he said. But this would not be an issue for a Russian military professional trying to flee the war in Ukraine. “Now, one of the risks we are facing are the military-trained personnel fleeing the war. They of course know how to navigate through the woods and how to survive there if they need to stay out of sight for a couple of days.”

 

This is an old picture, I'm working up hunger to cook burgers today but the problem is the hungrier you get the less energy you'll have.

I got some beef and horse that I'm gonna mix, add a little beef fat to make a nice 75/25 mix i think or 80/20.

I want to eat to have energy to cook what a paradox

 

Calling out davriellelouna@lemmy.world obvious spam makes them delete my comment and ban me as a spammer.

A SINGLE COMMENT on their community is spam, but someone posting 10-minute reads every 5-minutes 247/365 isn't spam?

Honestly whoever mod this was, however fking stupid are you to let your emotions take over and admit I'm right by banning me for one comment calling out literal spam?

Ah, Lemmy is occasionally really entertaining (because unlike them, my life isn't on the line so I don't get upset like they seem to :D)

 

They're so insecure that they don't understand that banning me for calling out davriellelouna@lemmy.world as davel@lemmy.ml proxy spam account is "bad faith".

How is it in bad faith? These people don't even understand the words of the rules they're using, lol.

Literally every accusation from them is an admission, and because I called out bad-faith users spamming links, I got banned supposedly for arguing in bad faith.

Feels like lemmy is mostly just russians, honestly, which is understandable as the pathetic fuckers can't engage anyone on any properly moderated forums

 

Don't know who bothers paying for these and why.

Not the best use of money I can think of, lol.

 

I've nothing to add.

 

Like a palms width away from the elbow, on the inside of your right forearm.

So... why do you have them?

 

But browsing active >95% of posts are by a user with literally "bot" in their name.

Might as well be reading the Google feed if I'm going to be reading a specific agenda by something, at least that's based on my interests and I can trust Google to put profit over everything, making their motives clearer than whatever the fuck is going on on Lemmy. (Cough tankies cough cough)
