So you can download maps for offline use, nice. Can I download the files and share them with other devices, which are offline? Or share the map files via usb?

Why can i smell spicy but not astringent?

Why can i smell things that are spicy, but i can't smell other of what i call pseudo-tastes like astringent (dry or tannins) or cool (mint) or metallic? Are all these pseudo-tastes i'm grouping together just not actually related or not processed in similar ways?

What are your go-to meal-prep solutions?

I need to do more meal-prepping. I've been thinking of burritos or pasta.
There's a delicious (and easy!) veggie pasta salad i did once that's on my list.

What have you been doing lately?
Or just share your favorites!

Edit: Thank you everyone for the great suggestions! So many of these are getting added to my notes!

If you want to have two environments (lets call it Sandbox and Production), and you want to have a NAS in Production (Terramaster, Ugreen, etc), what do you put in your Sandbox environment?

I am trying to plan my home lab to satisfy two different needs:

  1. I want a stable environment where I will put a relatively expensive NAS and maybe some other Zima boards.
  2. I also want to try new versions and configurations in an env where I can break stuff BEFORE trying things on my Production environment. I would also like to use that environment to try other things like playing with Kubernetes, Docker, Iceberg, etc. I am a backend software engineer so this is very useful to me. Besides being fun.

So, I am just trying to gather ideas on how to configure this both in terms of software and hardware.

I've got 250g fresh ginger and 250g fresh curcuma. What do I do?

(250g are about 8 ounces)

i already made a garlic ginger paste (125g ginger, 125 garlic, some oil, some salt, puree it with a mixer) and froze it. first dish i used it was super nice, the second one had too much garlic, maybe i should have taken a bit more ginger, or i just used too much of the paste.

what do i look for? maybe something to make it durable, but recipes to consume it are also welcome, preferable vegetarian. otherwise i'm open for all ideas :-)

thanks a lot!

Is VPS still considered self-hosting?

The services are maybe hosted by myself, but the servers aren't mine. I'm only borrowing a small chunk of resources from some company, so can it still be considered self-hosting?

Have you ever used beef jerky in a recipe?

I'm considering trying it when I'm car camping to save some cooler space. Is there a recipe you've used where it turned out well? Any best practices?

I'm thinking a stew would be a good option, leaving it to soak in the broth for a good long time.

Asking for recommendations regarding cold database storage

I run a Clickhouse database. My usecase is 99% writes and 1% reads - I rarely query the database. Currently, the tables (excluding system logs) use 6GB of the 80GB on my Ionos VPS, with the VPS having 50GB free space total.

In the far future, when that 50GB starts to run out, are there any cheap storage services out there that support a filesystem or a database? Due to querying the data so rarely, read speed isn't that big a deal, and if the storage is on HDD, so be it.

How different is Eastern European "tvorog" from American cottage cheese?

I'm an American living in Eastern Europe and I desperately miss cottage cheese - they just do not sell it here, and I desperately want it. What they do sell is Tvorog, which is seemingly similar to cheese curds but possibly not the same thing.

Apparently, cottage cheese is just cheese curds + heavy cream, so would tvorog + heavy cream end up as the same product?

Tomato puree?

Hey all,

I have a cookbook here where I found a recipe I want to make and meal plan for, but am a little confused about what to do with a specific ingredient.

The recipe is for a sauerkraut soup, and the recipe calls for a teaspoon of tomato puree. My confusion is that I am completely unfamiliar with tomato puree, and am finding it can be one of two different things, and the struggle is in sorting out which one of these two things is the one I'm looking for. Being in Canada, this isn't a product I recall seeing at all on store shelves.

Apparently in the UK and Australia, tomato puree is similar to tomato paste, though slightly different. However, in the U.S., tomato puree appears to be a product that is thinner than tomato paste, but thicker than tomato sauce.

My confusion is that this cookbook was published by an American authour in the U.S.. The measurements in the book are all imperial, calling for pints and pounds and the likes. However, things don't appear to a

What are some good kid friendly recipes packed with vegetables?

Thanks for everyone's suggestions for cabbage recipes from the other week. Some great stuff, but now I'm sick of cabbage.

Does anyone have some great recipes that taste good and are loaded with vegetables?

Preferably ones where cabbage isn't the main ingredient.

Crispy rice in a cast iron pan?

I had this dish in Denver. The bar tended to sell mexican food, but I am not sure if this is specifically a mexican dish.

The actual meal itself (onion, coconut etc) I am not looking for specifically. I haven’t been able to find a recipe where crispy rice in general is made in a cast iron pan.

The bottom and sides were crispy, and the middle was very creamy rice. Does anyone have a recipe or suggestions?

When making pizza, is there a way to prevent soggy crust?

I've been doing this for a while, but it's a problem I've never solved. Dunno if it's my crust recipe or something I need to do during construction.

The recipe is as follows:

  • 1c water, 120°F
  • 1 packet dry active yeast (2.25tsp)
  • 1Tbsp granulated sugar
  • 2Tbsp olive oil
  • 3.5C white flour
  • 1tsp salt
  1. Mix the yeast and sugar in the warm water, wait to bloom
  2. Add everything else and mix into dough.
  3. Knead, proof
  4. Roll out, transfer to pan
  5. Second proof (optional)
  6. Preheat oven to 425°F
  7. Construct pizza with favorite toppings
  8. Bake at 425°F for 15min or until cheese is sufficiently browned

Step 7 usually has jarred marinara, meats (except pepperoni), spices, and cheese, and all the veggies (and pepperoni) go on top.

Still, the very middle part of the pizza ends up a little doughy, just where the sauce meets the crust. The outside of the pizza is just fine, but the only thing I can think is that the sauce is adding too much water. Do I need to add a layer of oil be

Where are we getting the best value steaks in the US?

There are lots of articles on the best value cuts to buy. What I want to know is, which store is bringing the best value for a given cut? I'm based out of the south, so I've got lots of great options. walmart, publix, sam's club, piggly wiggly, aldi. I know historically local butchers have been the place to get the deals. The butchers in my area seem quite expensive. I think they're bringing custom orders to the table more than best value on a standard cut. So, in your opinion, which stores offer the best price:quality? Is there a particular grade, label, certification, or anything like that to watch out for?

ETF valeurs étrangères : suivi de performance et horaires des places boursières.

Bonjour,

Je (H40) commence juste à m'intéresser au monde de la finance et j'ai débuté mes premiers investissements boursiers via une stratégie DCA sur un nombre limité d'ETF il y a 4 mois. Donc forcément, il y a plein d'aspects que je ne comprends/maîtrise pas.

Mon interrogation du jour est la suivante :

  • Un ETF a pour objectif de suivre rĂ©pliquer la performance d'indices boursiers via diffĂ©rentes mĂ©thodes (physique ou synthĂ©tique).
  • En tant que Français, j'achète et je vends lorsque la bourse de Paris (Euronext) est ouverte (08h00-16h30 GMT).
  • Or si un ETF est entièrement/partiellement composĂ© d'indices Ă©trangers - qui donc eux s'Ă©changent sur d'autres places boursières Ă  d'autres horaires (En Ă©crivant cette phrase, j'ai dĂ©jĂ  un doute sur la vĂ©racitĂ© de cette phrase ?) - comment suivre un indice qui ne bouge pas ?
  • On se base sur les variations de la veille -> donc il serait possible de timer le marchĂ© (je sais que la rĂ©ponse est non mais je n'arrive pas Ă  expliquer) ?

Which prosody docker image are you using and why?

cross-posted from: https://lemmy.ml/post/26615546

The official docker image is still at v0.11 and was last updated in 2016. It looks like maybe trunk is at 0.12, but, as far as I can tell, that a rolling release. My prosody install is too important to go with a rolling release.

Both the alternatives that they point to are similarly old;

My server is langishing on the unclev image. I'd like to migrate to something with 0.12 and have a bit more confidence in its resiliance.
