I mostly cook basmati or Thai jasmine rice. I don't have a rice cooker, or space for one in my kitchen, so I use a regular pot with a lid.

  1. Wash the rice in the pot by running it under the tap and mixing it until the bowl fills up. Discard the water and repeat 3-4 times, or until the water becomes clear.
  2. Drain the pot completely after washing the rice, then add water about 1:1 by volume with rice, or slightly less for basmati.
  3. Cover with lid and put on high heat until it begins vigorously boiling (keep an eye on it).
  4. Reduce the heat to low and leave for 5-6 minutes.
  5. Turn the heat completely off and leave covered another 5-7 minutes.

Different kinds of rice might require adjustments to the time, but the overall procedure stays the same.

That would be nice! The last time I was on Matrix, there wasn't much going on, but I'm seeing a lot more community servers being set up. It might be time to update my old instance and join some channels!

I've also come across it recently. I haven't had a chance to install it yet, but I plan to do so soon. I'll follow this thread closely for your experience!

I use OneDrive for the auto-upload feature. I know it's not selfhosted, but I want an off-site copy of my pictures anyway, and the phone app works really well for auto-uploading. I had previously tried Nextcloud's auto-upload, but many times the uploading was stuck and I had to fix it manually.

I then have nightly rclone jobs to download the photos from OneDrive and store them locally. To view them locally, I use Photoview, which works really well with an existing directory structure.

I switched from andOTP to Aegis when I found out about the development and I actually like it more! I was able to import all my saved credentials easily.

Thanks for suggestion Inoreader! I've just had a look and it looks great, in particular with their pre-made collections.
