Strawberry kombucha

Perfect with a slight sweetness, some crispness, and an even smaller hint of tartness in the background

Bubbly Mango Peach kombucha

Delicious and more tart than some of my previous kombucha batches due to longer f1.

Pumpkin Spice! My best work so far.

Also the most difficult one I've made.

First time trying carbonated raw kombucha

This was my first time trying my kombucha without adding any fruit/extracts/anything and going into the carbonation phase. It tasted very juicy and delicious, i honestly didn't think it would be all that good or interesting. I think i liked it due to how sweet it was.

Any AI image editing and manipulation software/projects?

Are there any AI open source software / tools / projects that can do image manipulation such as removing backgrounds, or isolating/cutting out a subject or person, or similar things? Manually cutting out things in gimp is a massive PIA and i see there are online tools that seemingly accomplish this using AI but they are locked behind making accounts/credit card/other barriers to get the full size processed image. Surely there must be something out there.

  • I figured its another black box hell like a google meets or something similar where itll try to grab any detail, data or info about what i am connecting with, and also how trustworthy the E2E encryption is if its proprietary

    Any way to join Zoom with any privacy at all

    Hello let's say you are absolutely forced to join zoom in the future, is there any way at all to have any security, such as an alternate client that can connect? I expect the answer is no besides only connecting in a browser with add ons or in a sandbox etc etc and nothing truly groundbreaking.

  • Additionally this might be important for shutting down blacks pressure on the a2 square. Black has a threat of b4, cxb4, Nxb4: whites knight on c3 is the only thing stopping Qa2 for now. If black can sacrifice for it or deflect it then there is a threat on a2. It wouldn't be checkmate as the king can escape though.

  • All i can see is Nxe6, fxe6, Qxe6#, King moves, Qxc6 and the queen doesn't look like its able to be trapped. This wins a pawn. That's all i see, but if this is a puzzle I would think there must be something better .

  • You are right, and I have tried, however it is painful needing to translate while on a phone when there are so many different words i don't understand in a short sentence. Not to mention the slang and internet culture associated with posting online on memes and stuff.

    Are there any communities on Lemmy where bilingual people can communicate or practice? Specifically French.

    I speak French as a second language (not fluently) and I am trying to find somewhere on Lemmy where people who speak French as a first or second language could communicate with me and people with a similar interest. At my level, just trying to go to French Lemmy instances or communities isn't practical, the proficiency difference is way too large. Are there any communities dedicated to what I am trying to describe? If not, maybe i should create something new where people just submit posts in French and people can have discussions on them to practice and build up their vocabulary. It could be like a centralized pen pal community.

    What are some mistakes that you have made and learned from?

    I just brewed my first batch and I am so excited for this to be my new hobby. I'd love to hear some first hand knowledge anyone has built up.

  • Do you ever see tactical opportunities in a typical semi Slav game? From the white side it seems to remain positional the entire time in my experience. I guess that's subject to change upon hanging pieces or blunders.

  • Thanks for your reply. It is difficult to account for move order and transpositions but i feel like i see the slav response about 50% of the time. Until i study it more, im often opting to exchange the central pawns and then just develop my pieces as white. Unlike in other pawn exchange openings like the French exchange or Caro kann exchange, i feel like for whatever reason it doesnt dry out too badly. If i stopped playing the Nimzo Indian i feel like i would opt for the slav but only after closing the pawn structure after getting my bishop out. Because i don't play this as black, I'm not sure if I'd try to hang onto that bishop once its out and prone to attack or try to keep it in the game, i don't think its worth the time trying to make space for it to retreat. Meanwhile when i used to play QGD it felt too cramped and i never felt like i had the tempi to devote to trying to fianchetto the light square bishop.

    Queens Gambit Declined vs Slav/Semi Slav

    For black, between QGD and Slav/Semi-slav, which do you prefer and why? I am trying to understand what is appealing on both sides and why you make the tradeoff of potentially blocking in the your light square bishop. Personally, I respond with the Nimzo Indian as black, and when playing as white I hope for QGA or Catalan.
