  • I would so much like to love peertube, but I have yet to find any instance that hosts the trash reevant to my interests. Mostly they either are filled with reuploads from YouTube, or are full of radicalized conspiracy theories (which I encounter very rarely on any other form of fediverse).

    And then there is the “dumploads”, which makes the instances seem like they only have one active contributor, as they dump like 60 videos right after another, resulting the frontpages to have just one note content. This, however, could be gixed by otion to group conecutive uploads as “[latest video] and [n] other videos from [user]”, which would help to find more diverse content, as well as discourage dumping.

    Then again, that is only my opinion, and if PeerTube is fine for others, who am I to complain. It just doesn’t seem to be for me :/


  • This is quite the point I tried to make. Yeah, at this poi t beans are the only plant protein that I get even decent. Never heard of a black bean burger, to be honest, it won’t be the first recipe I’ll be looking with my cooking record.

    And for tofu. I know it isn’t originally meat replacement, and I’ve seen dishes that look amazing, but I still have trust issues when it comes to tofu. Maybe I need to retry some time if I encounter it in a (proper) buffet sometime. Still, I don’t trust it. I haven’t been a fan of shrooms either, and they just wasn’t my thing even now, when I recently tried to cook some. My SO liked the muahroom sauce though, so it wasn’t just about my inability to cook them.


  • As a carnivorous fattie, I do care about nutrition. And in all fairness, I’m open to suggestions for naturally vegetarian foods.

    Now, before I get a list of “vegan beef and tofu”, what I mean by naturally vegetarian, is foods that don’t include tofu (which I personally don’t just like), or need to advertise being vegan. I am looking for foods that, from the beginning of the time, have never had meat removed, or replaced. I want “accidentally vegetarian” -foods.

    My current favourite is bean-tomato soup, but it gets rather one note.






  • Well, if you avoid the games with ads, it reflects poorly on profits, and maybe someone might mention to the shareholders that the reason people won’t play their game is the invasive ads.

    The reason why they still have their poopy launcher is that people adapted them, because tolerating the launcher was the requirement for them to (legally) play their games. Putting games behind a launcher did not teduce the profits enough to not continue doing so.

    So yes, the way to combat this is to avoid their games thst implement ads.


  • There is also “Owncast”, but it seems to suffer from the same issue that peertube does; there is no integrated revenue system for the streamer, so there is little reason to put effort in to the quality, as well as it being fairly unknown, so even if you set up donos etc. the audience isn’t there.

    The discoverability don’t help, since there isn’t really s good way to filter out all the “24/7 radio” -streams, so even if you actively follow the frontpage, or a category, you have to skim trough them manually. Also, there is no proper language filter (at least if you don’t have an account), and it seems it’s more popular with non-english speaking streamers.





  • “We have built a bomb shelter, that can withstand a bombing, underneath the hospital, and believe the enemy is using these facilities. Instead of surgical flushing strike of these areas, which we clearly have the floorplsns for since we built it, we decided to bomb the building that was full of civilians that clearly could not utilize the shelter if our claim was true, knowing that the enemy command center is built exclusively to withstand said bombing”

    Yeah, there are 3 sides to this war: IDF, Hamas and the civilians, and it seems two of those sides are having a competition on how many of the third side they can kill. I’d say both Paleastine and Israel deserves to be free of the warmongering leaders, because as much as people stand for Palestine. Sure, the first thing should be to stop the assaults that extend to the Palestinian side of the border, but after the seize fire has been reached, I wouldn’t mind seeing the leadership of the both warmongering terrorist agencies (IDF and Hamas) being systematically dismanteled from inside.

    And if you feel “Hamas is neccessary”, well, Hamas was the group that provided the flimsy excuse for the IDF to use to attack this tiime around by attacking an international civilian event. Palestine deserves better than Hamas.

    [EDITS]: adding few clarifying words to point out the leaderships problems on both sides have existed for a longer time.

    To be fair… I think I need to take a deeper dive in to pssion fruit, because I do recall tasting it, and it tasting bitter. But then again, even as I tend to taste bitterness stronger than mybpeers, as that is one of the reasons I don’t like the taste of coffee (even the good one), the common denominator in the juices was pointed out to me by someone, who actually likes coffee, and I’ve never met a person in flesh, who likes passion fruit because of the bitter aftertaste.

    That leads me to believe there is more to it, because it is literally impossible to find a juice here (and to be clear, if it’s not made with 100% juice, it is called “juice drink”, not juice) where the third fruit is NOT passion fruit. There are some extremely rare brands, but it feels like the people making those juices are so insistant on adding passion fruit, that it feels like they’re trying to extend the juice with that. Which then conflicts with an idea that it’s an expensive delicacy.

    This then leaves few options:

    1. the fruit is locally a delicacy, because most of it is exported, and the exported fruits are of lesser quality.

    2. the exportation of those fruits cause them to go bad, but those who buy them in bulk completelly fail to understand this, and think that people want that shit anyways.

    Non the less, this requires investigation, so I can make a more public, local, case to push for lore mixed juices that are not ruined by their lack of product testing.

    In all fairness, I am not looking for a fight everywhere, I do however have tendency of responding in kind, and in this case, I may have been wrong to do so. Live and learn. But that is the danger of using South American slang in the internet, where not everyone is familiar with South American pet names for fruits that may or may taste extremely bitter for different people.

    Well, we do have. Unfortunately seems to be a common ingredient. Just because they sell it as premium product wherever you are, doesn’t mean it’s actually rare. It is a common denominator for bitterness in my experience, and no matter how much you think it is not, that is what it tastes for me. People taste stuff differently. Sometimes that difference is complete opposite of someone elses taste.

    The namecalling is a response to your namecalling, as I do not care, nor need to know your age nor gender, as you do not need to know mine, in this discussion of taste. Calling other people “pops” or “kid” is only demeaning, and brings nothikg to the coverstation, and warrant a sililar response.

    [EDIT]: It has come to my attention, that “may pops” is a slang term, not a fruit. Sorry for taking it as an insult. I know better now. Also, no mattet how mucg you love passionfruit, for me it tastes extremely bitter (I could’ve inserted your mom joke here, but let’s not at this time). Though for you it seems the name fits, as you seem to be very passionate about it.
