Indian cuisine has got to be #1 in the world for flavour at a low price. It’s pretty amazing. Back in the early colonial days it must’ve been crazy expensive for all the spices but now you can stock up at a local Indian grocery and get amazing spices in bulk for quite cheap.
Do you use a masala dabba?
The big map is misleading. The vast majority of us live within 100 miles of the US border.
I’m not really a question poster though, I’m a question answerer. I think most people are like me, which is why tiny communities (but non-zero) don’t have any discussions: there aren’t enough question posters, just a lot of question answerers waiting around like kids at the school dance.
I joined Lemmy like a lot of others, when Reddit shut down the API. I soon went back to Reddit but also stayed on Lemmy.
The big problem for me with Lemmy is it’s still way too small to use it the way I use Reddit. I’ve subscribed to a whole bunch of communities equivalent to the subreddits I read and comment on. On Reddit those subreddits have a few hundred people active on a daily basis, whereas on Lemmy they’re lucky to see 1 post and 2 comments a week.
Small communities and real discussions were always what I liked about Reddit, never the big subreddits with millions of users. For now, anyway, Lemmy’s communities are just too small to foster those discussions (on the topics I’m still on Reddit for, anyway; there’s plenty of politics here obviously).
The thing that got me to really like spiders is when I learned that spiders are actually tiny mechs! Their legs are powered by hydraulics, rather than directly moved by muscles! I just thought that was so adorable!
Well they’re doing it wrong then. Most TNG episodes were written by freelance writers, not by the show’s main writing staff. The freelance writers sold scripts to the show and the main writing staff would polish them up for production.
A freelance writer could spend years playing around with ideas before finishing a script to send in. The show didn’t care, they had plenty of other spec scripts to choose from.
Not that notable. He got therapy for recurring nightmares and PTSD after his assimilation by the Borg. Dealing with his trauma was the central theme of s4e2 Family. It was some of Patrick Stewart’s best acting in the whole series, right up there with s5e25 The Inner Light.
What the show didn’t do was make his trauma and recovery an ongoing part of the series. That’s not because they wanted him to get over it, it’s because of the episodic nature of the show. For syndication to work, they needed most episodes to be self contained. This dramatically enhanced the show’s rewatchability, as should be the case for all great syndicated shows.
I like how it’s only graded 9.6. I take it a true perfect 10 grade must be worth infinity dollars. It’s like warp speeds!
Close, but also include the accusation coming from the ones on the left!
Only other thing I can think of (since you already said you didn’t use metal utensils) is that something stuck to the enamel and pulled off a chip. It’s not very common, but some kinds of chemical bonds with glass can be strong enough to break the glass when pulled away (enamel is a type of glass).
The tensile strength of glass varies dramatically and randomly based on invisible defects. That may be what happened here.
Did you ever pour any cold liquids in it when it was really hot?
Typical routine:
Dime is a pretty common word among basketball commentators and fans. It means assist!
A point guard who’s dropping dimes all over the place is playing really well and helping facilitate the team’s scoring.
There’s also ECAD software for electronics. I believe a lot of product teams use both ECAD and MCAD. The former for designing the circuit board, the latter for designing the case and any moving parts.
CAD software for Mechanical design (mechanical engineers use it to design motors and transmissions and other machinery).
Wow, thanks for the recipe! I have a 12 inch cast iron skillet as well as a 10 inch carbon steel pan (3mm thick and oven safe), but no 10 inch skillet. Can I use one or the other?
Cornbread is so delicious! I’ve loved it every time I’ve had it but I’ve never made it before!
I mean I don’t play brand new AAA games. I have old consoles, I use emulation. I basically have every game I’d ever want already. Tens of thousands of games.
I don’t know where you get discrimination out of that. Only if you’ve convinced yourself that you need to play the newest AAA games, I guess.
I see lots of people playing new games, with multiplayer, on their phones. Ubiquitous computing everywhere.
A soldering iron isn’t going to get the job done for high density BGA packages. Example chip:
All those dots are balls of solder. The chip needs to be placed on the board in exactly the right position and orientation, and then the whole thing placed in a reflow oven so that the solder balls can melt and flow appropriately without bridging any connections.
Doing this at home without the right tools is essentially impossible. With the right tools, it’s merely quite difficult. Reflow soldering takes experience and carries the risk of damaging other components on the board which may not survive the temperatures in the reflow oven, so need to be removed first. Plus the reflowing procedure itself is guided by a temperature profile which would have been developed through experience in the factory with specific adjustments for the thermal characteristics of this board. Get the profile wrong and you may break other connections when the solder fails to flow, or have other chips on the board come loose.
Yes, not only vegetarian and veganism, but also simply having vegetarian meals more often without giving up meat entirely. Sometimes I think folks “let the perfect be the enemy of the good” and insist on going cold turkey full vegan or bust and then busting out. They’d have much more success eating less meat by just trying some vegetarian Indian dishes and seeing how nice it can be to have a delicious, savoury, hearty, filling, and satisfying Indian meal, and even forget that they aren’t eating meat!
Some of my favourites include Rajma, dal makhani, a very spicy masala dosa with 3 chutneys and a bowl of sambar, and Lahore style chole.
