    S23 Ultra. It's been nice doing everything at least 2 years before iPhone products, and I don't feel like I'm part of the Marx Consumerism.

    What song are you currently stuck on?

    I can listen to Ben Bohmer - Moments on repeat for days it seems. My *fix* song does change and has repeated before. What song just vibes with you currently?

    Hey Beehaw Mods,

    Thanks for standing up to the rules that were set in place before the influx of users like myself that have recently joined. Morals and ethics do have dilemmas when upholding them, and I can certainly understand the frustrations, what-ifs, and anxiety that might be going through your conversations about deciding to defederate, if/when to (re)federate(?) with those specific instances or new instances in the future. Beehaw was my first experience with this type of communication outside of Reddit, and I believe yall have made the correct choice given the ungranulated mod tools that are currently available.

    I personally don't know if these groups could prepare of an influx until it immediately happened. So there's probably tons of new issues to tackle. Thanks for taking the time to address them so your previous community members and new users like me can enjoy this experience.

    The observational, although anecdotal, subjectivity from reading other's posts is that of frustration, and probably confusion over federation and defederation. There are so many new people, including myself, that have or have not read up on what those terms mean. Yall and many in this community have made multiple efforts to explain what those terms mean, as well as the benefits and consequences of them. We should do our due-diligence to understand what we're registering for when we provide a website with a username, email, and create a password.

    Thanks for standing by your decision and supporting the previous rules that were provided well before we arrived. Coming from a long-term RiF user, it is refreshing seeing this site provide proof in the pudding. This isn't the same as reddit (or what was reddit to me - RiF), and people need to understand that. I prefer apps as I use my laptop for work and study, so the Jerboa app has made operating with federation/defederation actually pretty easy to work with.

    Yee Haw for Beehaw? Thanks again. I don't know if yall needed to read this, but you're doing a pretty good job and it's actually quite impressive given the current climate.

    Non stop, even after yesterday's class with even more reminders. 8 more weeks until a week long break, then convocation and it all resumes again... hooray.

    There use to be a baked potato place down the street from us, but it got covid'd. I grill mine and smother with whatever I can find in the fridge.

    I get into a tres leches craving mode occasionally. Super easy cake to make! I do homemade frosting too with heavy whipping cream and top it with fruit. Awful for you but it tastes so good.

    Extremely subjective, ha!

    I make about two cans worth of water chestnuts. That will last me a few days, or hours if i need them to.

    What's your go-to comfort food?

    What is something you could never get tired of eating? That one dish, meal, or snack that no matter the day, you know if you had just a piece that time would stand still while you enjoyed that food for just one moment? Care to share the recipe if it's homemade? Mine is bacon wrapped water chestnuts. Take sliced bacon and wrap around whole, individual water chestnuts. Secure together with a toothpick. Line a cookie sheet with aluminum foil and place the wrapped water chestnuts on the foil. Once you've made *enough*, cover with a unhealthy sprinkle of brown sugar and soy sauce. The "sprinkle" should be enough so some sugar and soy sauce have powdered each wrapped snack. Broil until bacon is cooked. Watch for fire while using broil. Let them cool until warm and enjoy!

    I asked a question in one of the food threads(?) Forums(?) Lemmy instances(?) About ingredients about a type of food I can only get when I drive several hours away. I felt like it was received and answered without the memes and better-than-you tonality, which I felt was just nice and welcoming.

    Someone correct me if I'm wrong, but I believe that butter chicken is also known as murgh makhani. murgh makhani is different than Masada because the gravy or sauce is made different or has some different ingredients.

    At least that's what sounds right in my head

    New cohort. New edition of the books. Students stared into space last week during orientation and I've received over two dozen emails and calls about zeros on late work. It's too early this summer to hold hands...

    what's your go-to butter chicken recipe?

    I live in deep east Texas and our only Indian food restaurant within hours of me closed due to Covid. What's your go-to recipe for butter chicken? I'm ok with canned, homemade, frozen, anything that you would recommend.

    I export them to an external. Once I move them I delete my Google photos. Rinse and repeat. I've considered paying for expanded cloud storage so I don't have to dig for a picture or video from months/years ago, but that's another project for another day.

    No idea what I'm doing either. Thanks for posting this site on reddit!!! Hopefully some of the conversation moves to here, as RiF was reddit to me. Thanks for making this group!
