Also making seitan from flour is super easy. If I could get my hands on pure gluten it would be insanely easy. Maybe not as rich in taste as soy meat, but so much cheaper than store bought meat analogues.

It’s UWQHD. It’s higher than fullHD, so it is high def by definition.

And that’s totally fair, in my opinion. Speech has to flow in the language you speak, or you’ll sound like an idiot. As long as people don’t go around claiming to know and teaching others pronunciations for things that they themselves don’t pronounce the way that was intended.

there are examples like VIP where even though we could pronounce it we pronounce each letter individually.

This always seemed a bit weird to me. In Sweden we do pronounce that as a word. Vipp.

Non-acronym initialisms are an exception. I wouldn’t pronounce the letters in German.

But that’s not unconventional, is it? Everyone has one.

That’s considered unconventional where you are? I don’t think I’ve ever seen a kitchen without one here in the Nordics.

Related. I actually thought it was a sun related thing, like a solar flare, in the comic. Turns out it was butterflies.

I was so close to buying PocketCasts’ lifetime license, and then they switched to subscription-only. Still salty about it, because it’s the best podcatcher by far!

The worst is when an android app is clearly an iOS port.

This always means there are zero settings. If there’s no way of configuring the app, I find an alternative. There are few things more frustrating than software that assumes one size fits all.

This is Carl’s Jr.'s design to a tee! 😂

Correcting myself here. AntennaPod does have silence trimming, but it’s neither a player button nor in settings, but in a …-menu at the top of the player, which made it a bit hard to find (Same can be said about some settings in Pocket Casts.) and there’s no graduation, so it’s mad max only, from how it sounds.

I would think podcasts without RSS is a tiny minority, and I wouldn’t take them seriously. And I’ve never even heard of ivoox.

You made me check. Since August 2018, I’ve cut about 1d using variable speed, and 1.5d using silence trimming. I’m only using mild at the moment, and have used medium before, but mad max was too much for my taste. But since I’ve listened for 83d, silence trimming is a <2% saving for me, so it might not mean much.

Edit: I do use it extensively specifically when catching up on the backlog of a podcast. So it probably accounts for way more during those times.

Ooh. Nice! I hadn’t heard of AntennaPod before. It seems to have everything that I use in Pocket Casts except for trim silence. I will try it out for a while and see if I miss that. I do use it and it saves a lot of time. Still though, OSS is a big draw.

Edit: It also doesn’t open the queue or start playing automatically in Android Auto.

Consuming podcadts through Spotify is a wild concept.

Coming from. Sweden where all tax records are public, it seems insane to get 5 years for revealing taxes.

Maybe if it’s not clean. The trace minerals in there make just about zero difference flavor wise.

Water drinkers are so smug. So proud to be so boring that they drink only something that tastes of nothing. Unless you’re absolutely parched and/or it’s scorching outside, literally anything else that actually has a flavor is better.

I can’t see anything wrong either. I wash them after. It’s just what I’ve read. Don’t remember if from some shaving guide or the blade manufacturer. You can’t see bacteria.
