Tell me the details like what makes yours perfect, why, and your cultural influence if any. I mean, rice is totally different with Mexican, Chinese, Indian, Japanese, and Persian food just to name a few. It is not just the spices or sauces I'm mostly interested in. These matter too. I am really interested in the grain variety...
With the asterisk that they may have had better results from the high-end ones using the specific settings and such for exactly what they had. Personally my ~20k JPY zojirushi works fine.
Copying from Reddit. I hope we can get moved over here.
Signed the contract for my bike. It's my first "big-boy" purchase paid for in cash and that stung a bit. Still, there's basically zero chance of getting a loan on a property of the type/age I want and where I want without PR, so might as well use the money I was saving for something. Having the bike will make some things easier in my life, which is good. I just need to find some place with almost no traffic at first to practice driving. A bit nervous about getting it home when I pick it up next month, but I'm sure it will be fine.
Re-arranged my whole garden (in my parking space that was unused) so that I will have room for said bike and to thin out some failures. My corn never came up (not surprising given the seeds were old and a bit weird) and now it's too late for that. All but one of my garlic died. My black beans (as in kuro-ingen and not kuro-mame) are doing well, however, and have some pretty flowers. For some reason, all of my scallions but 1 pot died. I guess too much rain and not enough sun. My wife takes some each morning for her natto. I'll probably plant some more.
Started playing more with kbin (a reddit alternative) this weekend. It's having some growing pains, but looks to be good. Hopefully in the coming weeks, it fills out some missing features. As of now, I only go to /r/japanlife and /r/rideitjapan still on reddit.
Without looking, I'm pretty sure that's Houston, TX near the arena (whose name now escapes me after almost a decade away). I moved to a place with great public transit and could never go back to driving all the time.
WTF? I don't even use icons and always use list view. I still have Windows here on my desktop but, aside from gaming, linux does basically everything I want already and I have it on my laptop.
Seventy-seven percent of middle-age Americans (35-54 years old) say they want to return to a time before society was “plugged in,” meaning a time before there was widespread internet and cell phone usage. As told by a new Harris Poll (via Fast Company), 63% of younger folks (18-34 years old) were also keen on returning to a...
As someone who is Gen X or millennial depending upon the day and the years they pick, I don't want this. It's very easy to look back through rose-tinted glasses, but there are a lot of things, which many commenters already touched on, that were much harder or worse then. One that I didn't see early was maps and navigation. I had to lug around a giant atlas and plan out my routes to get somewhere. If there were a new street or development or something, I was SOL. Even in the early days, printing out MapQuest maps was far better, but still had its own issues. Aside from that, many other commenters mention many of the things that were decidedly worse or more inconvenient back then.
That shape and cooking of bacon, along with some other things, tells me it's likely North America and probably the US. That style of bacon ("streaky bacon") is not the most popular choice in a lot of other English-speaking areas.
After the (temporary) defederation announcement of earlier i checked the Lemmy repo to see if there was already a ticket on the federation limiting option like Mastodon's that people mentioned Lemmy doesn't yet have. Not only i didn't find it, i also saw that there's about 200+ open tickets of variable importance. Also saw that...
Until there's a good replacement for a couple of communities (such as those of us living in Japan and the specific issues and advice related to that), I will go to two subreddits, but that's it. Hopefully, the community will move somewhere like here.

A lot subreddits end their blackout tomorrow. Will you go back to Reddit, or continue with kbin and the Fediverse?
I haven't used Reddit at all since the blackout began. Even if they change course, the Fediverse is growing on me, and I think I'll stay here....
Do media in your country inform about Reddit blackout?
Asking especially those living outside USA.
