Calyxos pixel 4a 5g. Works pretty well phones old but does what I need of a phone, replaced the screen last year and actually down graded from my pixel 6a as I like how wide the 4a is.

This is so confusing, first trump seeks to ban tiktok, then he allows it, and now its banned again?

Corner the market. Then close in.

Assuming America is a democracy is the first mistake. killing the native population, viewing non land owners, poc and many more as lessors. Let's not forget who wrote the constitution.

Just realised what I did, so I made two batches one after the other. My first batch:

235g Warm Water
1 tsp Salt
1.5 tsp Extra Virgin Olive Oil (plus more for the tray)
3.5g Yeast
280g Bread Flour
TSP sugar

This is the one thats water and sitting over night in the fridge.

Then on to the second batch. Which I felt I could do again from my brain and completely fumbled 😂😭😂

I will hopefully have a post tomorrow with picture. No olive oil as I am broke.

Must suck to be a boot licker.

I hope so Lol. And yea I use the same technique leaving the yeast in water and suger, no timing though instead I wait for it to foam.

[–] squid_slime@lemm.ee 1 points 3 days ago

This sounds promising as I mixed till smooth and elastic then went on to stretch and fold. Next time I will try this out.

I believe its

Hand full of chopped olives.
280 flour.
175 water.
TSP yeast.
TSP salt (but I opted for less.)
TSP sugar.
2 Tbsp olive oil (I used rapeseed as higher smoke point and had at hand.)

Added yeast, suger to warm water and left to sit, added the yeast mixture after foaming to the flour I mixed and it wasn't as watery as expected. Then added chopped olives, and rapeseed oil, every 30 minutes i gentally folded the dough, after2 hours i then placed in well oiled baking tray stretched dough to size, dimpled and let sit for 30 minutes - second rise. Placed in preheated oven at 200c for 25 minutes.

The result was a crispy outer, and a cake like crumb cooked through.

I knocked up a batch to cook tomorrow which is wetter and leaving in the fridge to later cook tomorrow.

Still not focaccia 😭

 

Met a 22 yo in a group I am involved in, she asked if I wanted a lift to a meeting, there and back. I don't know her very well but she's young a lot younger than me by 10years.

So talking on the way back she mentions antidepressants, I too take anti depressants, the conversation moves towards SSRIs and sex. I panic because that shit makes me supper uncomfortable, she said some stuff that was a blatant hint. Anyway me and her have activity later in the week for the group we're in, she's invited me out for a drink after and being friendly and uncomfortable I said yea sure.

How best to proceed? I don't want things to be weird and our group get weird as a result. I wish I could set boundaries.

Worth mentioning I have crazy anxiety so don't judge too hard I mostly run on auto pilot in those situations.

An ounce of action is worth a ton of theory.

Come join a leftist org, join our struggle and let's fight the bosses.

A well love Razer and the original owner even had it repaired. These where mass produced and the manufacturing of the handles was massively flawed, they tend to developed cracks even before leaving the factory. The ball end and 510 threaded interface were pressed in which would put stress on the holo tube. and I love that someone used the hell out of this probably had a jeweller or someone with access to tooling to weld it as well as put a pin in the handle to stop the 510 dropping off.

 

This is a place to discuss products, techniques, tools or show of your skills and ask for advice.

Personally I am enthusiastic about pocket knifes and thus cut throat's and safety razors.

 

In the upcoming local elections, I will be standing as a candidate for the Trade Union and Socialist Coalition (TUSC).

TUSC stands firmly against the austerity measures imposed by the Tories and now labour, enabled by Labour and Green councillors. These measures have led to the removal of public bins, the closure of public toilets, and the loss of vital youth clubs. Austerity doesn’t save money—it shifts the burden onto ordinary people while neglecting the real issues.

In Britain, the richest 10% pay less tax than the poorest 10%. Homelessness is rampant, with no adequate programmes to help people off the streets and into work. Mothers are waiting years for social housing. This is the reality of a system that prioritises profit over people.

For every pound austerity claims to save, it costs taxpayers three. Closing youth centres might seem like a cost-cutting measure, but it leads to higher crime rates and poorer educational outcomes. These "savings" only create deeper social problems down the line.

Neoliberalism thrives on short-term profits, but the cost is always tomorrow's money and tomorrow’s wellbeing. If we want real change, we must fight for it—together.

If you agree, join us. Spread the word, help us campaign, and let’s work to build a fairer future

 

Come give me a follow. Also I never used twitter, anyone have pointer on how to use this style of message board?

Across Exeter city centre Exeter's early risers were met graphic poster in bus stop billboards depicting the Palestine conflict with headers saying Israeli genocide as well as well known brands with financial investment in Israel being added to the lower section of the poster.

Its obvious the statement being made is and the activists involved have my full support.

Many years ago me and an old friend co-op'ed Ghost Recon Wildlands, hands down a great game minus the third person perspective, soon after we moved on to Far Cry 5, it felt familiar, like GRWL but published, less outrageous pop in anyway since feeling burned by Stalker 2 I've put a couple of hours back into Far Cry 5 and honestly its still great, looks good, runs amazingly with a game loop thats fairly casual. I have however noticed some bits have changed, the cash shop for one is somewhat front and centre, the added guns and skins and cars look silly af, there is also DLC (I have get to delve into that) anyway I find myself surprised that Far Cry 5 lacks mods, anyway I'm wondering why is there so few, Far Cry 5 would make for a solid base for similar concepts like Anomaly, or Fallout London where they overhaul the story to make something for old players to cling on to.

It might be obvious but I don't play many UniSoft titles, the ones I have played have already been mentioned (fc5, GRWL) and I can imagine people rolling their eyes thinking "another UniSoft game" and if that's the case is there another entry to the franchise with high level modding?

Also I'm glossing abit, its my only experience of a the franchise I'm sure if I played them all I'd be as sick of the loop as everyone else. Anyway what's everyone's thoughts on fc5, the franchise in general, favourite entry and the modding scene for fc, will we witness the death of UniSoft?

Taking money out of GSC's pockets? Do you think GSC is owed anyone's money? If people prefer playing Anomaly over S2 then that's GSC's fault for releasing a sub-par product.


u/Regular-Role3391 5d ago

If you keep pimping a "free" game at the expense of another one that you spend a lot of time shitting on as much as you can - then if even 1 person does not but the second one and downloads the one you are pimping instead , then yes, you have taken 60 dollars right out of the developers pocket.

Not mentioning the irony of the pimping being done for a product that was originally developed by the developer of the second game. It would not be so bad if the game being pimped required a purchase of the original product but, for some reason discussed elsewhere, it does not.

Even though the modpack upon which pimped game is based, required ownership of the original product.


GSC put DOTS between each letter to circumvent licensing.
