cool, just watched the movie "Pompeii" last night and then my wife and I were looking up photos from there. (I also made a homemade pizza yesterday)

for margarita (and some other drinks) the glass rim is covered with salt. So, you could evaporate the tears and put the residue on the rim in place of salt.

search for tkemali sauce recipes. It's a Georgian plum sauce that is great with meats and vegetables. I've used it on pork, chicken, fried potatoes. In Georgia, it is about as common as ketchup is in the USA. There is red tkemali made from ripe plums and green made from unripened. Green is my favorite, but both are really good. I think the plums used in Georgia are a wild plum, but I made some last month with red plums I bought at Kroger. You might have to visit an international market to get some of the spices.

edit: recipe that i used, minus a couple spices i didn't find in time, but it still turned out good.

Hello, I'm trying to find a poem I read somewhere once and I'm not having any luck with any search engines. I've also tried chatgpt and it keeps suggesting different poems.

What I remember about the poem: I think the stanzas begin with "I sometimes think..." and the poem ends with something like "in fact I do little but lie on my back, but I sometimes think." Also, it rhymes zinc with think, something like "or study the crystal structure of zinc"

edit: the end is something like this:

I sometimes think I should learn to play the sackbut

or study the crystal structure of zinc

In fact I do little but lie on my back but

I sometimes think

I am a substitute teacher in southern Illinois. At the schools where I've worked, the students get chromebooks at the beginning of the school year and use these for much of their coursework and exams. Some students had notebooks, but I never saw any carrying textbooks.

The teachers had digital whiteboards and also there were projectors in every class where the teacher could project from their computer.

I'm new to NixOS, just installed it a few days ago, so I can't say much about it's pros and cons, but the installer was easy and I installed and booted into the new system very quickly. I think it might have been udpated in the past year, because I am watching a tutorial video from a year ago and he installs it via command line from the live iso.

edit: it also gave me a default configuration.nix which I've just been adding to (to get nginx with letsencrypt running, plus extra packages I wanted installed)

Instagram already had an app named Threads. Can they not think of a new name?

if this guy spent a week on lemmy and couldn't figure out communities, then I think android authority aren't paying their brightest to write opinion articles.

Is it a big learning curve? Is this the emacs equivalent of OS configuration/installation?

edit: another question - Could I play around with it by installing in qemu and if I like that, take my configuration.nix from qemu and install it as my main OS?

I guess it depends on how you rank the importance of each of those. For me, I can get an SMS from my bank with a 2FA code to login (I know, less secure), so I don't need a specific app and can use the website. Hotspot isn't very important for me, but it does work(when my modem worked.) I'd also move bluetooth audio lower on importance to me. Can't argue with telephony being on top. I wonder how it is with pmOS on Oneplus 6? I have a pinephone, but the modem is dead/not recognized or something anymore, so now it's just a mini tablet that I always leave at home.

It uses apk from Alpine. It has dinit instead of systemd. I think it has some similarities to runit, but I'm not sure. Instead of gnu coreutils, it uses utilities from freebsd.
