Weird how much he's grown to look like the 1st Doctor.

What is the best way to eat spinach? in c/asklemmy@lemmy.ml
[–] spittingimage@lemmy.world 2 points 3 days ago* (last edited 3 days ago)

I like it in a tuna salad. I chop up a cup of baby spinach, along with half a carrot and the same amount of telegraph cucumber. Mix a 180g can of tuna in oil through it, add some salt and pepper and it's a pretty good low carb lunch.

They hear you crying yourself to sleep at night.

Coming up with a showerthought is easy. Framing and Verifying one is hard. in c/showerthoughts@lemmy.world

It's not hard to verify at all. Just face the camera and speak the thought aloud.

What distro should I use to revive this cutie over here? in c/linux@lemmy.world

Do you have a NIC that accepts DOS-based drivers or are you surviving without internet on it?

I'm gonna anti-recommend TinyCore unless you're an advanced user. The wiki is a trap full of outdated info spread across several different versions of the OS.

Management doesn't understand storage. For a while we had to destroy mobo, RAM and drive from departing devices, to 'protect' patient information.

How do you do fellow kids? (My children lost their mind at this) in c/tenforward@lemmy.world

It's an emoji smurf saluting. Duh.

Yeah, I got that.

What old movies hold up because of a lack of special effects or because clever use of effects? in c/asklemmy@lemmy.world

It's a fine film.

Jackie Chan is willing to be sawn in half rather than use CGI to appear to be sawn in half.

How would you turn Hell into a tourist destination? (lemmy.world)
 

Especially if the sinners still need their punishment?

Is it possible to eat a toxic amount of culinary herbs/spices? (lemmy.world)
 

Either all at once, or over a lifetime?

Is dessert a snack or a meal? (lemmy.world)
 

My position is that it's a snack and husband tax must be paid. My wife is arguing that it's a meal or occupies some third food space and it's entirely hers. Who's right, court of Lemmy?

What are the levels of BBQing? (lemmy.world)
 

To explain what I mean, I think you can level up a cooking style. For example, pasta. At level 1, you're boiling dried pasta and adding sauce out of a jar. At level 1, you add your own spices. Level 3, switch to fresh pasta. Level 4, make your own sauce. And finally at level 5, make the pasta from scratch.

So with BBQ, I guess level 1 would be cooking the meat so it's neither burnt nor underdone. Maybe level 2 is mixing different meats/cuts that have different heat/time requirements and cooking well. Further levels = ?

Message bullets (lemmy.world)
 

Picture this: you're working in a large open-plan office and you need to send a message to Steve at the other end of the room. You pull out your messenger handgun, dictate your message (because you paid for the voice recognition feature) and let it engrave your words on a bullet. Then you simply fire it at the target mounted above Steve's cube!

Fast, attention-getting and simple. It's the perfect system.

Tesco's Laser-Etched Avocados to Save on Packaging Waste - Core77 (www.core77.com)
 

I'm sharing this because any reduction in unnecessary packaging waste is good for the planet - and because I think laser-etching avocados is funny. 🙂

Alternatives to onion grating (lemmy.world)
 

I followed a Jaime Oliver recipe for curry, which started with grating onion, ginger and garlic. I liked the curry, but grating an onion is a miserable job. He said that technique unlocked the onion's 'sweetness'. How much difference do you think I'd notice if I used a food processor?

Loki (spoilers) (lemmy.world)
 

I noticed that one of the monitors in the loom control room had "SKIN?" written on it in the dust that covered it. It seemed pretty mysterious and I was sure it was a detail that was going to be important, but it never came up as far as I noticed. Any theories as to what it's about?
