Yeah but that's such a fiddly process. I've sprayed pasta and sauce all over the table because my knife or fork slipped trying to do surgery on my food

Yeah I've never understood if they expect me to just eat the tail, or start playing with my pasta with my hands to pull them off. Certainly not gonna waste like half my shrimp by just cutting the meat where the tail starts.

Honestly most of the posts I see on /c/vegan or /c/veganmemes are just making fun of and antagonizing people who eat meat lmao

Yep, I mean you can see for yourself, I've never posted anything about veganism nor have I posted on the sub, and I was banned for "anti vegan sentiment" or something, I don't feel like looking back at their rules lol.

Same here lmfao, the utter sensitivity.
Edit: Also, it's mostly that one power-mod spamming vitriolic posts. I just blocked them and my feed is a lot nicer. Dude's checking the database and just banning everyone who downvotes him.

I mean, as a millennial, I mostly taught myself to type. I'm fast enough, but have bad technique and could be faster. I was only ever actually trained to type in grade school, and barely. Once in a while in computer class we would play an educational typing game.
My mom is much better at typing than I am, because she was trained to type in college. That's not really a thing anymore.

It's a track by RJD2 called A Beautiful Mine. It wasn't written for the show, so I don't think it really specifically represents anything about the show. I'm sure you could draw conclusions about what it could represent, but there's no real correct answer to this question.

They probably have good discovery and trending post mechanisms. Mastodon makes it a point not to have one, which results in a wholly uninteresting feed for the average user. I'm only on mastodon, but I very rarely use it, because it mostly sucks unless you spend several, several hours trying to track down fun accounts to follow yourself.

I mean, maybe I'm just lucky, but I've been dual booting Linux and Windows for a little less than 10 years, and I've never had a Windows update interfere with GRUB. I've always thought the complaints were overblown.

If the Civ7 teaser trailer's music is any indication of the music in the game, I think it's gonna be excellent

You think it's spicy? I've never heard that honestly. A little peppery tasting, sure, but not spicy. Unless there's spicy varieties of it or something.

Gotta try to claw back some semblance of joy every day somehow. God knows I don't have time to do that during the day.
Howdy, so while I'm able to block all posts from hexbear.net accounts, it seems there's no way for me to block all their comments on instances they're federated with. I'd rather not leave some of the communities that are still federated with them, but I would like to be able to block or hide all of their comments in the threads. Is there any way to do this yet? Or do I just need to move to an instance that's defederated from them?
I like dogs like I like toddlers. It's fun to hang out with other people's for a while, but ultimately they're annoying, loud, and make a mess. I feel like in the past 10 years or so, dog owners have become increasingly convinced that everyone thinks their slobbering, untrained mutt is god's gift to everyone, and expects everyone to love it unconditionally. Dogs in restaurants. Dogs in stores when you go shopping. "Oh it's so funny that your dog is jumping on me and getting it's dirty paws all over me while it tries to sniff my crotch." "Oh oops! Your dog ate my food off the counter, fucking again. Guess that's my fault because in this house nothing is safe from the coddled fucking dog." "Hey man can you watch the dog? It's really easy, not like it pisses all over the floor and knocks the trash over or anything. We have to leave the house for 2 hours and it has anxiety/depression/borderline personality disorder and he's a wittle special boy who needs constant attention." I'm just tired of it. Nobody gives a goddamn about your stupid dog. Stop bringing your animal to restaurants, it's disgusting and inconsiderate. It's not your child, it's a dog. Dog people have made me hate dogs.
I've always been interested in trying the game, but didn't know anyone who could DM. I became really interested in playing a few months ago, and decided, fuck it, I'll do it myself. I just ran Dragons of Stormwreck Isle last night with a few friends, all of us completely brand new to D&D. I hit one snag where a player was prying for more information about Varnoth's history. They rolled really well, and Varnoth isn't necessarily guarded about her past, but I had NOTHING more to give them. The module had no more history, and I don't know the world well, so just trying to make up some lore on my feet was really difficult. I tried to give more jargon, didn't sound great, and just ended up making her tell the player that there wasn't much more to say, and that she'd moved on from that time in her life. This stuck out to me as a failure on my part, but after the session, I told the player about how it looked from my end and they didn't seem to have noticed that I was fumbling. They just assumed I had everything out in front of me. So I guess the improv was decent enough, and least for my completely inexperienced players. Anyone have tips on what to do when a player wants more information that an NPC should know, but it isn't something you'd prepared for? I'll have to learn the rules a little better (the first encounter with the zombies featured 5 minutes of me leafing through the PHB because I ran into an important mechanic I didn't quite understand), and I should probably prep the story a little better too, but I'm beyond pleased at how successful the session was. Everyone had a great time and wants to keep playing. It was a ton of fun improvising and creating a fun goofy story together with my buds. Just very happy to have this new fun creative thing to do with my friends and want to share that joy. I'd really like to create my own stories eventually, but it does seem very daunting. Anyway, thanks so much for all of your help! Reading through posts in this community has been invaluable to learning how to play and DM.
Not posting from the app obviously since submissions aren't supported just yet, but the app is otherwise awesome so far!!! Really well done ljdawson, just wanted to make this post to say thank you. I signed up for sync ultra right away.
I don't think it's any secret that there's a bit of a stuffy vibe on Mastodon. Does anyone have recommendations for hashtags they follow that pull more lighthearted content into their feed?
Or have I missed the train on this? I know services like twitodon.com were available to find users on Mastodon that an account is following on Twitter. But it looks like with the API goofiness, those services are shut down. Is there any way to do this now?
I've had a model M for a couple years, and I was using the Orion 2 induction heater for maybe a year. I've always been disappointed with the Orion. Heating is too fast and uneven, and a torch has always been superior to it. BUT I just recently bought the omnivap along with the Wand, and good god. It's fantastic. Just as effective as a torch, I can just stick the vape in and let it heat up, it's such a huge upgrade. I've been using the Mighty from Storz and Bickel for years, but the Wand honestly might make the omnivap my new daily desktop vape. Highly recommend.
Basically, title. I'm trying to follow some of my favorite accounts on Twitter through mastodon since it would make transitioning much easier, but I can't find a Twitter mirror that actually displays any posts. Did I just miss the train on this?
Sorry if this is a dumb question, I can't seem to find the answer online. Is there any way for the users of an instance to see which communities have been blocked by the instance? I know we can see the instance blocklist, I'm interested in the community blocklist.
