  • When I make my own pizza I use the spare sauce as a dip. Bit of olive oil and fresh basil over the whole thing makes the crust pretty much as nice as the rest.

    Also for the stuffed I think you have to do more of a burrito roll type thing so that the edge is trapped by the weight of the stuffing.

  • Instructions unclear: We're doing Vans now right?

    Why does the "Media Bias Fact Checker" - Bot gets downvoted so much lately?
  • So the answers in this post are mostly that people are downvoting the bot because it is often wrong and then others defending it by saying “it’s not wrong it’s just based on American politics”.

    If the bot reported from a range of sources that reflect a number of different political perspectives I’m sure it’d be more useful outside of the scope of American politics, and therefore wouldn’t get downvoted.

    As far as I’m concerned the vote system is working as intended.

    The internet is not American. There are no nations on lemmy ✌️

  • Huw Edwards charged with making indecent images of children
  • Normally I’d whole heartedly agree, but to be accused of anything even close to CSAM means he is likely one of:

    • guilty, and not smart enough to hide it
    • innocent, and incredibly stupid (considering his position in media)
    • the victim of a very dark Wile E. Cayote frame up job

    Guess we’ll all find out soon enough.

  • An Older Everyday Car UK
  • Generally in the UK I’ve learned that what we consider ‘high’ mileage is actually more like average or moderate mileage. This means there’s a sweet spot for cars with around 60-70k miles that are way more affordable than they’d otherwise be, and are usually just as reliable as everything else so long as they’ve been maintained. Like the other guy has said you’ll still pay out for maintenance, but this tends to be cheaper than PCP, lease, or other finance products.

    Ex-fleet cars are good for this as they tend to be mostly motorway miles and have been maintained as per contract requirements, so offer a better-than-good chance of being a hidden gem.

    The Jags you’ve been looking at are examples of this as a lot tend to be company cars.

    From discussion about this with friends, it is felt that exceptions to this rule are things like pickups, vans and other commercial vehicles.

    Obviously the usual disclaimers apply - always inspect, look up history, check the service logs and drive a vehicle before purchase. Also, with any second hand purchase there is an element of risk, but lots of dealers offer warranties to protect against the dreaded lemons.

  • Comment count in profile tab?
  • I see this same issue every now and then on lots of different places, and now it’s happened to me. I think I remember someone saying it happened after their instance got a Lemmy update?

  • Last night’s hack highlighted that we need a way to remove a single account or reauthenticate
  • It’s not a fix but a little work around if you don’t want to reinstall:

    Edit your password and just re-enter it, then tap save. Seems to achieve the same thing as reinstalling to get a new Auth token.

    Agree totally with the feedback Re no information on authentication being dropped. A little splash banner or something would suffice, and then the ability to try authenticating with stored creds again

  • User guide for Memmy

    Is there a user guide for this app anywhere? Or am I getting ahead of myself a bit?

    I keep hitting obstacles like not knowing how to edit posts or search in a specific community. It would be good to be able to reference a guide of some sort so that I can find out how to do stuff or if the feature isn’t implemented yet without bugging this community.

  • Firstly, like everyone else is saying, petition your instance admin to defederate - any instance that allows that sort of content isn’t somewhere you want to be affiliated with.

    You can also block the user posting stuff - I’ve had to do this with the weird anti-trans spam on that dankmemes community. Depending on what you are using you may or may not be able to do this, but the default lemmy web client will let you.

  • Screenshots of the WefWef feed in posts are super confusing when you are just scrolling

    Came across a post while scrolling my home feed that had a screen shot of the WefWef view of a community’s posts as the image. Both my feed and the screenshot were dark theme, meaning it was nearly impossible to distinguish until I scrolled all the way to the bottom - obviously the poster had a longer phone than I do as the image took up the entirety of the screen and it just looked like WefWef was no longer displaying the community for each post. Super confusing.

    I’ve added a screenshot of my own as the image for this post as an example.

    I’ll go off now and find the post I’m referring to and include it with my edit.

    Edit update: I can’t find the original post I’m referring to but my image does a good enough job showing the issue.

    Not sure what to suggest as a fix or feature request - maybe just reduce the size of images slightly so they are little bit less than the full width of the display? All suggestions are welcome.

    Grimdark/low-fantasy recommendations needed to fill a gap

    The Outlaw Empire by Nicholas Eames is supposedly releasing this year, so I need something chunky to fill the gap. I’ve gone through Abercrombie and Lawrence as you might expect, and yes I have read the hell out of The Expanse. I don’t want to start Game of Thrones until I know there is a last book :P

    Anyone have any suggestions that might scratch the itch?

    What are you all up to while the weather is good?

    I’m learning to embrace the warmth so I’ve got the boys coming over, firing up the pizza oven and have the Peroni chilling in the fridge. Not bad for a Wednesday :)

    Might even get the sprinklers out for the dog
