I hope you can find another bread product that's perfect for bushy eyebrows.

Ooh and maybe tiny bagels for eyes. That might be too silly or too small

What game(s) do you want to talk about? Make a post!

To echo what another person said I came here from /all

I think that's part of the point. It's someone's job to make the original comic.

Removing the titular protagonist should ruin a work. Removing them here does absolutely nothing. It makes no more or less sense, despite losing a core component. One would hope a comic in widespread syndication would fare better.

At least with memes when they're inevitably bad, it's probably someone fucking around, not a paid professional.

It really depends what sort of recipes you're making, but for cooking very loose approximations are often fine.

I often have to convert to weight/mass in order to find out how much of an ingredient to buy. I have no idea how many cups an eggplant is. But once I get it home the recipe might as well say "however much eggplant you have."

If I'm truly off, I will typically scale up the recipe adjusting for the extra meat or vegetable content. I'll more or less assume that 1lb of meat is interchangeable with 1lb of veggies. That's not quite true, in particular with salt.

Your mileage may vary though. Some recipes and ingredients are much more sensitive to deviations.

The More sweeping forgiveness attempt was blocked.

He seems pretty committed to forgiving whatever he can get through. It wouldn't be unusual to give up after the initial attempt was blocked, but now he seems to be breaking it apart into more manageable chunks. I'm still slightly hopeful that more forgiveness is coming for those who need it.

Flagged isn't very useful until Lemmy has filtering tools that can act on the flags built in.

Even the mobile apps which support filtering wouldn't be able to react sensibly to an AI tag for posts within this community.

It does, but for a real world parallel see bike sprints.

That's a wonderful eggcorn.

I was watching a video talking about how eggcorns are an unusual category of error because they require intelligence and creativity to make. The argument was that the process goes like this:

A new word or phrase is heard, but not understood. The brain makes sense of it using existing vocabulary that has sounds that are close enough. This is accompanied an explanation for why those specific words make sense in this new context.

For example: the original eggcorn was a mishearing of acorn. Egg because it's roughly egg shaped, and corn is sometimes used to describe small objects similar to how grain can be.

All this to say, it's maybe not something to feel dumb about. Your brain did something neat.

Valve doesn't have a management team.

Maybe they could transition to being a worker-owned collective when Gabe wants to retire. I'm not sure what else keeps Valve as we know it alive post Gabe.

Honestly anything but memes. Memes tend to suffocate all other content.

[-] ThisIsNotHim@sopuli.xyz 18 points 1 year ago

It seems fine, with a few concerns.

The federated nature could become confusing, especially for new users. For example, I'm not sure how a new user is supposed to distinguish between: Games@sh.itjust.works and Games@lemmy.world This seems like a potentially worse version of reddit's games vs gaming vs truegaming.

Also the lack of filtering options. Until I build up a reasonable amount of communities I'm subscribed to, I suspect I'll be using All more, which doesn't seem to have a simple way to do things like filter out all memes or just focus on text.
