Aussie in Singas.
Writer. One of my novels: Coils of the Serpent. Read it for free.

You can read most of The Guardian without JavaScript.
Try one of the existing instances. Pixelfed.social is probably a bad choice right now, as it’s getting overloaded with new members and so importing from Instagram has been curtailed. The others at https://pixelfed.org/servers should be fine. If you later choose to host your own instance you can always move the data from your old one.
How old are you? Once you reach middle-age shit starts breaking, even if you’re fit which most of us aren’t. You’ll notice a good bed at forty much more than you will at twenty. By sixty you’ll be demanding one.
I don’t believe you are. I’m not certain it’s been implemented… yet.
The entire Fediverse is a work in progress. It’s just better than the alternatives.
As an alternative for both, try searXNG.
https://searx.space/ for instances.
https://github.com/searxng/searxng for the code, you can run your own instance.
https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/SearXNG for the wikipedia article.
Personally, I find it returns much better results than anything currently available elsewhere. It reminds me of a time when search actually worked. Also, no ads and no tracking.
BTW, different instances can supply poorer results than others, so shop around to find the best one for you.
IIRC, they originally became popular because they saved characters for microblogs like Twitter. They’ve outlasted their usefulness though.
If only it worked on current generation hardware other than pixel and, iirc, fairphone.
Only some of those books focus on mages.
In Singapore, chicken eggs come in packs of 6, 10, 12 (always labelled as having two bonus eggs: 10 + 2), 15, and 30. Duck eggs come in packs of 6. Quail eggs come in cans (NFI how many they include).
Yeah, nah. While copyrights are a problem as they’re currently employed, removing them would screw every content creator on the planet. Most of us don’t make much as it is, with only a few making a living from our work. Removing copyright would allow anyone to take what we produce without any compensation.
The corporations would love that.
I use it, as both a reader and a publisher, but rss (in particular) could do with an update.
While it’s often attributed to Churchill, it most likely originated from Abba Eban.
America always does the right thing. After it has tried everything else.
Also way harder to propagate mis/disinformation to push an agenda. I personally see that as a benefit and not something I want to see changed.
Because Mastodon proved to be too hard for them to figure out. They couldn’t work out which instance to use. Then they couldn’t work out who to follow. Some people need to be spoon fed.
Perhaps I’m too tired to understand your meaning here (it’s late), but blockchain isn’t crypto currency. It’s a distributed ledger, and was around long before crypto. It’s not completely immutable either as the hard fork of Ethereum proved.
Blockchain could be used to record energy transactions, but the question is why would you want to? What benefit does it add?
Btw homeowners in parts of Australia are already receiving credits for the excess solar power they generate. There’s no need to manufacture a new system to enable that functionality.
Once again, I’m tired. Perhaps I’ve misunderstood your reasoning.
I don’t know. I think the way he’s alienating people, sooner or later he’s going to annoy the wrong person and end up finding himself falling out a window.
Just a thought. An observation, not a prediction or a threat.
Yes, there’s a decent (albeit bare bones) Android client. The web interface is about to have a major update, but at the moment is pants.
The olive oil might be causing it to become too doughy. You don’t need it (or the sugar). Both are for taste and texture. You’ll likely need to fiddle with the water if you lose the oil.
I’d also recommend measuring by weight and not volume. It’s more accurate. Buy yourself some cheap kitchen scales.
