Jackfruit! You can use it to make a mean vegan pulled "pork", it'd be great on a BBQ pizza.

Ooo I can only imagine TMBG live would be such a fun time, I'm jealous!

It's extra fun when you're bisexual and non-binary!

Most expressions of attraction towards me are from "straight" drunk guys telling me I'm cute "for a guy" 😅

I've tried both ways and didn't really note any differences. If anything, unpressed might've had a slightly better texture.

I find for crumbled or smaller pieces of tofu, pressing doesn't do much. It's really more for when you have bigger chunks and want to marinate it, in my experience.

For a savory breakfast, my go-to is tofu scramble. I keep my spices premixed in a mason jar so it's really easy. Oil in a pan, crumble up the tofu, add spices and a can of black beans. If I'm feeling fancy or have veggies I want to use up, I'll fry those up a bit before adding the tofu.

For dessert-breakfast, (vegan) waffles with maple syrup and fresh strawberries is my Saturday morning staple.

If anyone's curious, here's the spice mix I use for my tofu scramble (quantities listed are good for around 6-8 blocks of tofu):

4 Tbsp nutritional yeast
2 tsp chili powder
2 tsp ground cumin
2 tsp black salt (also called kala namak)
1.5 tsp turmeric (for colour)
1/2 tsp garlic powder

Barista here, I do latte art even on the to-go orders for two reasons;

  1. Practice, it's a lot less stressful to practice new techniques or variations on latte art when you know you'll cover it up with a lid, so who cares if it's messed up?

  2. It's fun!

You never knowingly met a Linux user. Statistically speaking, you probably have.

The issue is that OS-preference is not very common as a small talk topic. This is why you should name drop your fav distro in every conversation.

I work in a café, so I really only pay for my coffee on my days off.

I average maybe half a pound of beans per month for home brewing, so let's say $20 for a nice bag from a local roaster (in Canada-bucks). Ten or so dollars in V60 filters is enough to last me most of a year, so add a dollar a month. I also like checking out cafés, so add $15/$20 in random café visits, and I'd typically spend anywhere from $20 to $40ish per month.

Like I said, not an expert haha (thanks for explaining what mTLS is because I had assumed I knew but truly didn't)

That being said, I found a reddit thread detailing what seems to be the same issue as you, with OP linking a Stack Exchange post with their solution.

[-] Evkob@lemmy.ca 4 points 2 weeks ago

After some searching, maybe following the instructions on this blog post would work?

I'm by no means an expert though, so take my suggestions with a grain of salt.

Government when funding public transit: multiple feasibility studies, public opinion surveys, town hall meetings

I'm pretty sure you need to install it using "CA certificate" rather than the "VPN and app user certificate" option.

Hello! I've posted this a few weeks ago on /c/linux4noobs@programming.dev but I didn't get much of an answer, I hope it's okay to post it here as well.

I use 3 audio devices on my computer: my monitor's speakers (through HDMI), my headphones (through line-out/built-in audio) and my microphone (line-in/built-in audio). They all work fine, but when I reboot my headphones / line-out don't seem to get recognized at all.

The only solution I've found thus far is to re-install alsa-utils twice after rebooting. Upon the first reinstall, my line-out / headphones reappear but my line-in mic disappears, only to come back after the second reinstall. Technically my sound works perfectly fine after this, but it feels extremely dumb to reinstall a package twice after every reboot.

Any help would be greatly appreciated, thanks in advance :)

Okay I'm fully aware of how ridiculous this sounds in 2023, but bare with me.

I have a wonderful neighbour, Jackie. She's in her mid-sixties, and ever since she moved in we have become very good friends, she's like a second mom to me.

Jackie loves movies and has an enormous DVD collection. One day, she was talking about how she couldn't find a particular movie, and I said "I can probably download that for you!" Her immediate reply was "Can you put it on a DVD?" I tried telling her the many reasons it would be better to use a myriad of other solutions, but she insists on DVDs.

I did them for a while using DVDStyler on Windows, and it worked fine. But then I installed EndeavourOS on a new partition on my hard drive, tried using Brasero and Devede but it wouldn't read on her DVD player. Then I tried DVDStyler on my Linux partition, and it didn't work on her DVD player, despite saying the operation was successful on my end. I then tried booting up into Windows and using DVDStyler, and that also didn't work, not even letting me burn the disc. Does anyone have any ideas what could fix this? I've tried playing around with the settings in all these apps but I couldn't figure it out.

Apologies if this isn't the best place to ask this, but I figured a community of pirates would understand my desire to get movies to Jackie without her having to pray to find them in a pawn shop!

I've been using Feeder on my phone, and while I quite like the app, I would love a widget for my RSS feeds on my launcher.

Are there any apps that include a widget, or standalone widgets, but that are also FOSS?

Bike on a beer can on a bike.

Fun fact: Radler is the Bavarian dialect word for Radfahrer (“cyclist”)

I'll start with a couple of mine:

  • Terry Barentsen (fast-paced urban rides, mainly in NYC)

  • BCpov (MTB rides as well as some trail building stuff)

  • Shifter (informative videos on various topics relating to cycle commuting)

  • One Cyclist in Lisbon (pretty much what it says on the tin, lots of silly city cycling moments in his compilations and as well as longer rides outside Lisbon)

  • Ed Pratt's Unicycling The World series (I know it's not a bike, but it touches on a lot of just cycle touring in general)

Is there a specific route or trail you want to hit up this summer? A distance or fitness goal of some sort? Planning a bicycle tour? Bikepacking?

Please share, I'm curious to see what all of you are getting up to for this summer!

Please format it like this: [!community@instance.ml](/c/community@instance.ml), example: !technology@beehaw.org

This link is clickable on the Lemmy web interface, and will redirect you to the community within your own instance! It doesn't work in the Jerboa app, I don't know about other interfaces. Note that if your instance hasn't had any users interact with the linked community yet, you'll get a 404 error, and you'll have to manually search !community@instance.ml to federate them.

Picture from a little 50km ride I did at the start of spring 2022! This was one of my first longer rides where I tried hauling more weight in my panniers in preparation for a small bicycle tour I did at the end of summer 2022.

As always when I trust in Google Maps in my pretty rural province, I ended up on an ATV trail (note: this picture was taken after about 2km of completely muddy trail full of tire tracks).

At least my beer felt at home.

Cycling communities were one of my favourite parts of reddit, and I've been unable to find any equivalents on here so I decided to start this community. Feel free to post and comment about anything related to cycling! I'd love for this place to continue in the spirit of /r/xbiking, not necessarily content-wise but definitely attitude-wise. We're all cyclists, and at the end of the day the only criteria for being a part of this community is riding a bicycle (and enjoying it!)

Please comment any suggestions you have for this space, or simply say hi and let us know what you like to do on your bike!
