  • Do you want "easiest" or "most convenient"? You could buy powdered (dehydrated) eggs and just add water if you're not picky. Probably on par with the quality of eggs cooked in a microwave. I've never cooked eggs in a microwave so I can't be sure, though.

    If you want like, good eggs for breakfast, I don't think you can get around using at least a pan. If you have nonstick pans, it should be pretty easy to cook the eggs and barely have to wipe down the pan with a paper towel to clean it. If you're always getting black, charred bits stuck to the pan, try turning down the heat when cooking them; it doesn't take much heat to cook an egg (unless you wanna fry it and get that crispy exterior, but even then you don't need high heat)

    Guess you could go for boiling or poaching the eggs, since that involves submerging the egg in boiling water, which leaves virtually nothing to clean.

    Or you could just crack a bunch of raw eggs into a glass and chug 'em Rocky-style. But raw eggs aren't as nutritious as cooked eggs so I wouldn't recommend it.

  • I think "attribution" might be more apropos than "advertising" when it comes to an artist's signature. Of course the presence of an artist's signature will advertise their authorship, but the signature's purpose isn't inherently trying to drive you to a website/patreon/whatever; it's letting you know who put in the effort to make the art.

  • Samin Nosrat released a book a few years back called "Salt, Fat, Acid, Heat" that dives into this school of thought. I thought it was a great read and it's definitely impacted my cooking since reading it. And the accompanying documentary series was fun, too. Great if you're into cooking and want to improve your fundamentals in the kitchen.

  • I love Peanuts as much as the next guy, but I dunno if "animal standing on two legs" is a unique enough trait to say Garfield was stealing anything from Snoopy's design. Mickey Mouse had already been walking around on two legs for decades at that point

  • Sounds like your beef is less with actual "social justice" and more with bad actors co-opting the movement for their frivolous, performative virtue signalling

  • The best time to plant a tree was 20 years ago. The second best time is now.

  • Yes, but only in one direction. If I choose to remember an embarrassing memory I can increase my body temperature by a few degrees instantly. Like a really underwhelming version of the Human Torch.

  • That's not particularly exclusive to comics. Jokes in general are infinitely re-hashable, which is fine as long as the comedian puts in the effort to make it their own and doesn't just steal the joke and try to pass it off as their own.

  • I figured you were just being funny, but I'm feeling talkative today, lol

  • People always say this on stories about "obvious" findings, but it's important to have verifiable studies to cite in arguments for policy, law, etc. It's kinda sad that it's needed, but formal investigations are a big step up from just saying, "I'm pretty sure this technology is bullshit."

    I don't need a formal study to tell me that drinking 12 cans of soda a day is bad for my health. But a study that's been replicated by multiple independent groups makes it way easier to argue to a committee.

  • I'm not sure I understand the wisdom here. It comes off as "we live in a society"-esque. And doesn't really acknowledge just how many people protested the Vietnam war.

    "Sure, I murdered those people, but aren't all of the complacent, disaffected, yet broadly powerless masses equally responsible for their nation's unjust acts of military violence? We're not so different, you and I."

  • Not every Jellyfin user is also the server administrator. If someone sets up a server and shares that server with 5 people, most of those users aren't concerned with the privacy implications of how they connect to the server; they just want to consume content as easily as they do with Netflix, Disney, etc.

  • Ahh, silly me. I didn't even notice that gear icon was there. Thanks for looking into this feature though!

  • Seems pretty handy. So far the extension works pretty well.

    In testing out the Firefox version of the extension, I found that it would be nice if there were a "copy to clipboard" button near the "Subscribe" button for users who just want the RSS URL. I host a FreshRSS instance so the "Subscribe" button doesn't do anything for me. Triple-clicking the URL works to highlight it all, but a single-click copy button would be a nice QoL improvement.

  • Even if the interface may feel similar to you.

    I would say it's more than just the interface that makes Lemmy similar to Reddit. To end users, they are virtually identical services in terms of functionality. Link aggregators with built-in community forums. I think it's fair to call Lemmy a federated Reddit clone. Not to suggest Reddit invented any of the aforementioned features, just that Lemmy's implementation of said features is in many ways identical to Reddit's approach because it was meant to be a Reddit alternative for the fediverse.

    Even the official Lemmy git repository compares the project to Reddit:

    Lemmy is similar to sites like Reddit, Lobste.rs, or Hacker News: you subscribe to forums you're interested in, post links and discussions, then vote, and comment on them.

  • Oh wow, Bandle is a really neat idea. I'm adding that one to my daily puzzle folder

  • His mistake was not incorporating AI into the sales pitch. Crypto is so passé

  • After 5ish years of semi-regular practice, I don't completely suck at chess anymore. This year saw my most dramatic improvement since I started learning how to play in earnest.

    Yesterday I hit a new personal best rating at chess puzzles: 2013 Elo. Pretty proud of that
