But this is SOO tedious. The annoying bit is it could just be one person who set it up over a weekend, has a script that they plug into when wanting to be a troll, and now all admins/mods have to do more work.

You’re fighting the good fight! So annoying that folks are doing it on freaking lemmy.

Some days, or weeks, it’s enough!

Maybe shake it up from time to time with something else from the book, but I understand where some months eating enough to keep the stomach pains away is just all that can be done.

Yeah I like mixing it personally!

Like I have fresh sour dough bread I made this morning. I then like to use said bread to spoon in store bought curries, pasta sauces, peanut butter, and jelly. Or sometimes I’ll use it as bread for a frozen fish patty to make a sandwich. I also have a big things of rice and beans I made that I will sometimes just plop into a tortilla and call a meal.

I would steal this if I wasn’t allergic to soy XD

Well maybe you can sometimes stretch your wings into “Open can of black beans, drain it, and mix in ranch” territory sometimes!

Ahh this is not a “go buy” something recipe.

This is a “If you are thinking of not eating because you feel like you have nothing to eat, eat this instead”

100%, some of these recipes are “scavenge for food with things in the back of your fridge/pantry”

Some days, you need a reminder that eating anything is better than eating nothing.

Yeah I tried making a sour dough starter twice from scratch and it didn’t have any oomph to it.

So I just bought one and suddenly boom, perfect XD

Oh happy to hear that it’s valid advice! I got it from a speaker at a video game making thing I went to years ago that stuck with me.

Talking about it I suddenly have the urge to do it again xD It was very satisfying to compare last weeks drawing to this weeks, and the first drawing in the book to the last one. I can only imagine how satisfying it would be if I stuck with it for a year XD

I mean I’m not great in any way, but the way I did that I found very satisfying was find a tutorial where the end product is something you like and will take under an hour, or heck 10 minutes, idc.

Then follow it. The first time it’ll probably come out garbage. That’s okay! Think about which parts you did wrong.

Then the next day, follow the tutorial again. Then the next day, again. Each day try things differently to get closer to what the tutorial wants you to do.

After about a month I was super happy with what I drew and realized that if you just draw, you’ll get better.

Same! Some of the recipes make it sound like you need 6 special tools and a climate controlled area. Freaking internet blogs trying to justify their existence by over complicating things.

Oh yeah some even let you play in browser now. Crazy how it takes seconds, and most peoples phones can even play most everything game cube and earlier.

I feel like they could be the main characters in a dozen different movies.

Buddy cop film where old style cop has to team up with young tech assassin.

Average man tries to solve a murder while being hunted by a cyborg

Young group of hackers led by this woman is being hunted by corrupt police as they try to expose the government.

Like either one of them could be the protagonist or antagonist of any number of movies depending on the genre, or team up for a clash of styles type think.

I want them to be in a buddy cop movie together. The young tech assassin and old no nonsense cop.

The VP having control over the platform they announce things?

What a novel idea /s

So dumb how much power twitter got for politics. Fediverse for life!

Oof, sounds like you might be looking up what countries you can get to with low cost of living soon.

Or home steading.

I mean the example I gave was a guy who fled over student loans, which can’t be discharged through bankruptcy and the US government can not be stopped from coming for you!

No hackathons from my school, I do game jams, and so maybe doing one using only code and not a game engine would be an interesting challenge. Plenty of game jams where the goal is to have the game be like under 10 megs, so straight code is the only way to go.
