Also yes 😆

Not that, specifically, but I get annoyed when people post screenshots of videos that have the “play” icon on them. My dumbass clicks on those 9 times out of 10.

“Captain, this seems like a gross violation of both the Prime Directive and the Temporal Prime Directive”

South Park: What Scientologists Actually Believe

Beyond that, it’s a cult / pyramid scheme.

Also, check out Leah Remini: Scientology and the Aftermath documentary for a good insider’s perspective.

I think they’re stating the opposite: that there are multiple posts about it in many, many communities.

For SNW, I don’t think it matters beyond preference. A few other comments suggest watching it before TNG, and that makes sense.

I’ve seen those both on YouTube and at festivals. They’re pretty cool.

Personally, I don’t even like opening a can of biscuits because of the ‘pop’, so I don’t know how I’d feel about using one of those at home. lol

I do prefer to pan pop, but sometimes I’m just lazy and want to throw it in the microwave and only press one button.

I was late to the party, so my initial watch order was all kinds of messed up. I went DIS -> LD -> VOY -> DS9 -> TNG -> VOY (again) -> ENT -> SNW. Sadly, have only seen bits and pieces of TOS (and only GIFs of TAS).

Definitely recommend watching the TNG era in order: TNG, DS9, VOY, ENT and then doubling back to watch Lower Decks again (because why not lol). I also recommend watching Prodigy after VOY since it’s basically VOY season 8/9. SNW is a spinoff from DIS, so I’d watch at least seasons 1-2 of DIS before SNW.

Prodigy is a kid’s show, but please don’t let that turn you away. It’s pretty great.

Air fryer is the best

It really is. I was late to the air fryer game assuming they were just another kitchen gimmick, but once I caved to peer pressure and bought one, I can’t imagine not having one.

but I find it works way better with a reduced power setting and a little longer

I think that’s what the “Pizza” button on mine does. You can hear it kicking on and off at a weird cadence similar to but more frequent than defrost, so I assume that’s how it works.

Frying in a stovetop pan can work for hand tossed or thin pizza

I’ve never tried that, but we have baked deep dish style in a cast iron frying pan.

The pizza button works pretty well (I think it varies the power kind of like defrost does), but civilized people should always either eat leftover pizza cold or reheat it in the air fryer lol.

Mid 2000’s microwave. Has buttons for popcorn, pizza, potato, bacon, and beverage.

Yeah, mostly. It’s a third party UI that you’d use in place of (or alongside) any other. Works on mobile (optionally as a PWA) and desktop.

Not sure if lemmy.ca runs it directly, but the hosted instance is unlocked so that it can connect to any Lemmy instance.

Sadly, Lemmy doesn’t provide crosspost information in the feed; the frontend has to detect those duplicates and roll them up itself.

Not sure if any other UIs do, but Tesseract will match crossposts on title as well as URL (the default UI only uses URL). I wrote that behavior in specifically for what you described; I was annoyed by seeing 3-4 duplicate posts to different communities all in a row.

It’s not perfect since the crosspost rollups only happen if the duplicates are fetched in the same batch, but it does help a lot.

That’s why I’m trying to block out all this and enjoy this last month and a half as best I can.

Thanks! It’s definitely a labor of love sunk cost fallacy 😆

Well, I try to be fancy with it and use truncate and ellipsis where text shouldn’t overflow, so it’s a little less wro…

As a developer of a Lemmy UI that I want to look nice on mobile, I love character limits 😆

I’ve said before (and will say again) that US elections are like our national-scale county fairs: idiots that your normally never see come out of the woodwork.

Wait until you hear about the Windows file copy dialog.

xkcd 612

Just going to leave this horror here. It’s the post feed logic from Tesseract that determines what posts should be displayed or hidden.
