What is the weirdest flavoured thing you've had?
  • This might not seem weird to many buy as a north american I had never encountered anything like it.

    Shiso spice on rice.

    It was a completely foreign flavor to me; like nothing I'd ever tasted before. Not a single thing in the north american diet is remotely close to what it tastes like. I saw there awestruck for a moment.

    Its incredible. I was instantly hooked.

  • A literal depiction of how capitalism invades all aspects of life
  • This is definitely scaffolding erected to facilitate repairs. Of all use cases for advertising, I cannot possibly complain about this one as it seems to be funding the repairs and the ugly scaffolding is being camouflaged by the dressing that mimics the underlying surface. Yeah, its always gonna suck to a certain degree to see ads plastered on a landmark like this, but if it's only temporary during repairs and helps maintain the building then I'm all for it.

  • Just no
  • I love pineapple on pizza, but the key to its greatness is using small pieces on top of the cheese and even giving them a little squeeze before cooking to prevent an over abundance of juice.

    For kiwi on a pizza to be even mildly appetizing at face value IMO the pieces would need to be quite small. I don't want a mouthful of sweet. A hint of sweet along with all the saltiness in the pizza is what makes sweet/salty pizzas amazing.

  • Does it seem odd to track my lifespan?
  • I did this for a while in anticipation of my 10,000 Days birthday. I took that day off work and did nothing but play games, chill on the deck, drink beer, smoked a bit of weed and spun Tool's "10,000 Days" album after smashing a pizza down my gullet for supper.

    It was a great day.

  • Installing st: Fatal Error

    I'm very new to Linux. Currently tinkering with Nobara and wanted to install st. I was able to successfully install it last night but when I started attempting to patch it for customization purposes I think I messed something up. I had needed to remove st multiple times and re-install so I could start fresh and fix my errors. Now when I attempt to run make clean install I get a host of errors related to packages that are installed but can't seem to be found?

    ``` [astralpath@nobara-pc st]$ sudo make clean install [sudo] password for astralpath: rm -f st st.o x.o st-0.9.tar.gz c99 -I/usr/X11R6/include pkg-config --cflags fontconfig pkg-config --cflags freetype2 -DVERSION=\"0.9\" -D_XOPEN_SOURCE=600 -O1 -c st.c Package fontconfig was not found in the pkg-config search path. Perhaps you should add the directory containing fontconfig.pc' to the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable Package 'fontconfig', required by 'virtual:world', not found Package freetype2 was not found in the pkg-config search path. Perhaps you should add the directory containing freetype2.pc' to the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable Package 'freetype2', required by 'virtual:world', not found c99 -I/usr/X11R6/include pkg-config --cflags fontconfig pkg-config --cflags freetype2 -DVERSION=\"0.9\" -D_XOPEN_SOURCE=600 -O1 -c x.c Package fontconfig was not found in the pkg-config search path.

    ```

    I'm not sure why these issues are occurring now. Could someone help point me in the right direction to troubleshoot? I'm really lost on how to proceed even though the error output seems to be giving me some pretty explicit instructions.

    Thanks in advance :)--

    Are there mouse skates for using a mouse without a mousepad?

    I've had zero luck finding any info on this. Maybe my search skills are bad :/

    What I'm looking for are mouse skates that create the feel of a mouse on a mouse pad. All the skates I'm seeing are for ultra low friction when used on a mouse pad. Basically, I want to get rid of the need for a mouse pad on my desk for aesthetic and practical reasons and am hoping that someone knows about a set of mouse skates that would facilitate this.

    My first Ace in competitive Counter-Strike - CS2 Premier

    My heart nearly beat out of my chest on this one! We were already down a player since the start of the game so this match was an uphill battle from the start. We ended up winning the game which felt amazing. This round is the cherry on top.

    Bad Company 2: Project Rome - Unable to Log In?

    Hey folks, just wondering if any of you out there are playing BFBC2 via the Project Rome servers and are having issues logging in.

    I was able to play on the day I installed the feature but ever since I haven't been able to log into Project Rome in-game to play online.

    Anyone else having similar issues? I'm wondering if this is just a me thing...

    Can't get a .csv of my subscriptions from Youtube

    After following the instructions provided by NewPipe to download my subscriptions list for import, I get a .zip file with nothing but an HTML file within. No data related to subscriptions at all. If I opt to download an export containing all my Youtube data, then I get a couple of folders for History and another data subset but nothing for subscriptions.

    I thought at first this may have been an issue related to the private status of my subscriptions list on my Youtube account, but even after toggling privacy off for my subs, I still cannot get a .zip from Youtube containing a .csv of my subscriptions.

    Has anyone else had this issue?

    Grindelwald, Switzerland - Looking towards the Eiger and Kleine Scheidegg

    On vacation last fall we ended up hiking in the Lauterbrunnen/Grindelwald area. Took this pic on my Samsung A51 after a quick lunch. Other than the A51's limited auto PP, there are no edits or adjustments to this photo. Not bad for a cheap phone, eh?

    With how decent the browser UI is, what benefits are there by accessing Lemmy via an app?

    Just curious. I'm hearing that a lot of people are using various apps with Lemmy but I'm having such a good experience with the browser version that I don't understand the point of adding an additional layer via an app in between my access to the service. I'd love to hear people's opinions about the pros and/or cons to using an app vs. the browser. [EDIT] I should specify that 90% of my usage is on my phone.
