DeGoogle Yourself@lemmy.ml•Alternative software recommendation request: Google Photos
7·3 天前i currently use immich, and it is phenomenal. immich is self-hosted, though, so you will need to host it somewhere.
i like it more than google photos because of its search features. ai/ml (local) learning of your photos so you can search for generic stuff and get pictures for it - it has been super helpful for sharing pictures with others, and i can generate single-use or limited-permission links to the photos just like a pro service. after importing a whole bunch of photos and letting the ai/ml run, make sure to name the people it pulls from your photos for easy searches for them : D

Selfhosted@lemmy.world•Does anyone have experience with Mumble?English
2·3 天前i havent had the chance to try stoat yet because most of my friends refuse to leave discord, but i heard of Stoat (used to he called Revolt, but i think there was a trademark conflict) a while back and have wanted to try it out.

Cooking @lemmy.world•How to make sauces less potent so you can douse your food in them?
8·3 天前i add water in this case; however, if water will make it a but too thin then you can add a water+corn starch mix to keep it thick.
edit: tbh, usually my “water” is water will some chicken or beef bouillon in there

Linux@lemmy.ml•Moving to linux at home has me using the command line more.
3·3 天前that is great! terminal use is not for everyone, so i only recommend using it if people feel comfortable with it or think it can save them time (and during troubleshooting, but im usually helping at that point).
my wife diesnt like using the terminal and has successfully gone without using it (minus me setting things up for her in the first few months), and that has given me a lot mire confidence in recommending linux to those that just want to use a computer and want it to “just work”

Games@lemmy.world•Which year was the most stacked for game releases?English
5·3 天前i was going to go with '06, but it looks like '04 was revolutionary for many game genres, and considered a major milestone in video game history due to its lasting affect on future titles.

Linux@lemmy.ml•What distro do you install on other's computers?
1·3 天前they get kubuntu or fedora with ~3 months of support from me. it can sometimes take 6 months if the person doesnt really use their computer often, tho.
mario was more expensive than baseball grape, so i smelled like baseball grape.

Cooking @lemmy.world•Can anyone help me fix my rubbish cookie baking?
1·4 天前yes, i use all-purpose flour (same as plain flour, just american); these have that cookie texture, not the cakey texture (a small rise, but not a ton)
RATM was really good when i was growing up; i really enjoyed the music, and it felt like it made me a rebellious kid.
now that i am an adult, those old songs hit pretty hard; i love their music because its true.

putting onto paper plate after mixing works well here…

#Mix 3 & 2
Mix 3 into mix 2 on slow/stir

Pour in your chocolate (or whatever type) chips; mix on slow/stir until combined, then turn off.

1·5 天前oh, saw another problem here. use baking soda for regular choco chip cookies.
baking soda == baking powder without the rising element. the acidity of the cookie will bring less fluffiness/cakiness than the full rise from powder. for a reference on amount (sorry, i am american so i use cheeseburger measurements…), i use 2-1/3c flour to 1 teaspoon baking soda; not cut with baking powder
edit: i think i said that wrong. baking soda has the rising agent, but not the activator for the rising agent. baking powder has the activator.

8·5 天前too cakey == too much flour. too thin == not enough flour. pull the cookies 1 minute before their full time on your first run because cookies are better slightly under than slightly over.
tell the doneness by looking at the bottom of the cookie - that is the color that will tell uou the most about their doneness <3
though these secret rolls remove the comedy behind the kronk stealth theme music (emporer’s new groove) upon critical failure, it does help with metagaming.
i can remember dressing up as Hans & Franz (an old SNL skit) with one of my good friends long ago. it was a great costume idea because it was sweatpants + swearshirt with pillows for insulation 👍

News@lemmy.world•Health Secretary RFK Jr. says there's 'not sufficient' proof to show Tylenol causes autism
10·8 天前i made a joke about the tylenol-autism thing to my wife when this first started getting some press, “i guess J&J didnt bribe trump with enough money…”
i see now that it wasn’t a joke, just too soon to say it for realsies.
