Sauron on drums? Most metal band ever.

Listen, you can't just call something a breakfast-whatever and convince us it's a suitable first meal. I was prepared to let breakfast burritos slide, but this is a step too far.

A lot of those things seem like infotainment rather than anything genuinely useful.

Couldn't stop thinking about that film for weeks after watching it.

Try working in healthcare. Awful hard to say no when you have to face them across the lunchroom table every day...

The average highschooler nowadays doesn't get to dissect executed criminals.

Nebulae are like Rorschach ink blots.

...anyone else see a furby burning in hell?

Went to pour himself a glass of filtered water, but wasn't sure which side of the tap was for hot water. He didn't want to accidentally pour a glass of boiling water - so he put his hand in it to see if it was scalding hot. It was.

We literally jogged animals to death.

My PE teacher tried to do that to me once or twice. Guess I showed him. The kid with the bad leg was the weakest herd member.

As an adult? I paid for it, I'll eat it. Then I won't order it again.

Ive thought about many of things but im unsure if i should try them?

You should definitely try them. What have you got to lose?

Since you're a creative sort, why not make zines? Scribus is a free layout tool you could use to build them and there are plenty of free templates available.

I do, but that's because I subscribe to hobby newsletters that tend to run long. I wouldn't use a summary button because I want every bit of that content.

Damage by weapon rating instead of making a separate damage roll. Yes or no?

I'm working on a personal project that involves calculating the mean, median and mode of word length in a series of poems. I've imported the first into LibreOffice Calc as a CSV, and have about 600 cells of word lengths.

Calc has Average, Median and Mode functions, but they only accept 255 inputs each. I could split the cells into batches of three and then work with those results, but it feels like that would only let me calculate the overall mean, not the other two figures.

So firstly, am I even using the right tool for this? Maybe there's a better way than using a spreadsheet. And secondly, if a spreadsheet is the best tool, is there a way I can do the calculations I need?

Especially if the sinners still need their punishment?

Either all at once, or over a lifetime?

My position is that it's a snack and husband tax must be paid. My wife is arguing that it's a meal or occupies some third food space and it's entirely hers. Who's right, court of Lemmy?

To explain what I mean, I think you can level up a cooking style. For example, pasta. At level 1, you're boiling dried pasta and adding sauce out of a jar. At level 1, you add your own spices. Level 3, switch to fresh pasta. Level 4, make your own sauce. And finally at level 5, make the pasta from scratch.

So with BBQ, I guess level 1 would be cooking the meat so it's neither burnt nor underdone. Maybe level 2 is mixing different meats/cuts that have different heat/time requirements and cooking well. Further levels = ?

Message bullets (lemmy.world)

Picture this: you're working in a large open-plan office and you need to send a message to Steve at the other end of the room. You pull out your messenger handgun, dictate your message (because you paid for the voice recognition feature) and let it engrave your words on a bullet. Then you simply fire it at the target mounted above Steve's cube!

Fast, attention-getting and simple. It's the perfect system.

I'm sharing this because any reduction in unnecessary packaging waste is good for the planet - and because I think laser-etching avocados is funny. 🙂

I followed a Jaime Oliver recipe for curry, which started with grating onion, ginger and garlic. I liked the curry, but grating an onion is a miserable job. He said that technique unlocked the onion's 'sweetness'. How much difference do you think I'd notice if I used a food processor?
