Would also be nice to know where each of these substitutions are preferred. Eg: for sweet cakes/brownies, vs savory goods/bread, etc.

This is surprising to me. The “follow your heart” blue cheese fits the bill perfectly for me.

I would kill for a mozz that got anywhere close to actual cheese.

I think of it more like vinyl. It doesn’t actually sound better, but it’s fun.

Bike moves in concert with you— legs go forward, bike goes forward. Legs go back, bike goes back. Simplifies everything, it feels more like an extension of yourself.

Yo! Fellow $200 fixie enjoyer?! Where’s the fixed gear lemmy community?

Damn. I have been spending so much effort trying to convince myself NOT to buy a new bike. Then this guy comes along.

Nice! More options for blocking ads is always welcome.

I haven’t tried any other add ons other than ublock, but I can confirm that it works on my iPhone 15 with recent iOS.

Just try looking at the same recipe page in safari and then again in Orion. Night and day.

I literally tried sh.itjust.works first! But I kept forgetting where the periods were supposed to go. I guess I’m a dumb redditor after all.

Exact reason I chose lemm.ee, it’s the easiest one to remember.

Awesome. Thank you for the source. I knew of the technology a long while ago, but I had no idea that France and Germany both enforce its usage.

The best option is still to stop eating animal products, but this is still a win for overall animal welfare.

So what happens to them? Just a slightly more humane death before they reach a week old?

Might as well use a fucking crayon.

 

Currently I’ve got 12 can lights in my living room, entry, and kitchen. Three different sections, all controlled by an inovelli red switch.

All of the existing can lights are just LED chips with an E27 adapter. They are all locked in a specific color temp (4000k is my fav).

After using the adaptive lighting integration, I am convinced I want my whole house to have the ability to change brightness and color temp. I’d like to do this as cheaply as possible.

One option is smart bulbs. That’s 12 bulbs, plus the dumb can light bulb cover things. What is the cheapest bulb for this? This solution doesn’t take advantage of the very fancy inovelli switch either.

Any way to leverage the nice switches, and have “dumb lights” that can be controlled via the switch? I know this sounds impossible, because there is no data going to the bulbs that would allow changing the color temp, but I just can’t stand the idea of buying 12 smart bulbs.

 

Got some friends together to help us roll some sushi. Here are some of the prettier attempts!

 

Based mostly on the serious eats recipe. We added siracha to the Mayo, and smashed avacado to the toasted bun.

I also don’t think the marinade needs to go on the tofu much before grilling. Just a quick rub to get the color for grilling. Then I spread a layer of the marinade on the bun.

Portland pub bun. Game changer.

 

I’ve finally configured my garden and landscaping on drip irrigation, but I’m using some dumb valves hooked up to my house hose spigot.

I would absolutely love a smart valve that I can have better control of the schedule, or respond to sensors.

After some looking around, it seems like “Rachio” is the only integration I can find for something like this. It’s a bit pricy ($99 per valve), and it looks like it needs a wifi hub to work. Has anyone used this integration successfully?

Is there any other options? There seem to be lots of “Bluetooth” controllers available in the big box stores, but I’m guessing they will need an app or something?
