  • What are your cheap, but not miserable, recipes?

    Jump

  • I'm a huge fan of soda bread, which does not require sourdough (or yeast). You can go from "I have no bread" to "I am eating bread" in about 40 minutes.

    The rising is done via buttermilk and baking soda.

  • When/how frequently do you replace your phone with a new one?

    Jump

  • I purchased my current phone (Fairphone 4) in January 2022. And that was because my last phone's battery was dying, and the screen was very cracked.

    I decided for a Fairphone because you can easily replace the battery (already done once) and the screen (not yet broken).

    As of now, I still have no plans to buy a new phone.

  • What is your "great I am an old person now" complaint?

  • I remember renting Surf Ninjas on VHS back in the day. I would prefer not to think about how long ago that must be now.

  • Meat. I'm vegetarian, my wife is not. When we go out to eat, if she orders meat, there's a good chance the meat dish will get put in front of me.

    We were at a Christmas market on the weekend, and one booth had a sign that said "Make your husband happy", and it was of course a butcher stand.

  • [QUESTION] Vegetarian / vegan recipe that tastes "ocean-y"?

    Jump

  • For anyone curious: after a lot of research and then failing to find hearts of palm in any supermarkets, I ended up going for vegan crab cakes with jackfruit. At the end of the day, they didn't taste a huge amount like crab, but with lemon juice, dill, and nori, they evoked vague impressions of seafood, I think. And everyone had seconds or thirds, so they seemed to taste good enough, even for the non-vegetarians :).

    I used essentially this recipe, but with jackfruit instead of hearts of palm, and with far more nori: https://www.veganfoodandliving.com/vegan-recipes/vegan-crab-cakes/

    Thank you for the ideas!

  • I've never heard of dulse before, but just looked it up. Certainly sounds interesting. What do you usually make with it? Or just add it to a soup?

    I'm also not sure where I would buy that, but maybe some of the organic markets around here have some.

  • I've never made a vegan dashi, but that certainly sounds like an option, and relatively straightforward. I'm then thinking what I could make with it...when I think of a fishy dashi, I'd likely end up with some sort of noodle soup. Any other thoughts?

  • What in your country/area is totally normal but visitors get excited for?

    Jump

  • Hrm, I wasn't aware of that difference. In Germany, the "fastest" roads are called "Autobahn", and they have no speed limit by default, and have no traffic lights. The next level down are called "Bundesstraße": they have a default speed limit of 100 km/h, and sometimes run through towns (lower speed limit), and sometimes have only one lane in each direction.

  • I love explaining the Autobahn to my foreign friends. "It's just the word for highway". "All highways are called autobahns". "Yes, sometimes there is a speed limit". "Even where there's no speed limit, we won't be driving that fast".

  • ‘‘Nobody Elected Elon Musk Act’’: Dems float legislation to make Musk liable for DOGE's actions

    Jump

  • When I toured the concentration camp at Dachau some years ago, the tour guide was very clear on this point: people did elect the Nazis.

    In 1932, the Nazi party became the largest party in the German parliament, with 37.3% of the vote. It is true that it was not mandatory to make Hitler chancellor, but as the head of the largest party, it would have been expected.

    The Nazi party received massive support in democratic elections, where the expectation of the voters would have been that if the Nazi party gained enough seats, Hitler would become chancellor.

    This is an important point to me, as it shows that it is possible for democratic elections to result in a fascist government that dismantles democracy. Ignoring this historical example prevents us from applying the lesson to new situations.
