then the US, like whomever wrote this opinion piece, has not read the details because every proposal so far benefits US tech giants… Carney has just made a fool of us all with this initiative

No, that is not what I am saying, I’m saying that nothing I do at this second is going to stop the bombs dropping in the near future.

So you run with that notion and justify perennial inaction... It's what I said above. Unless someone else gives you an easy, yet 100% effective solution that costs nothing, you are not willing to do anything.

As cathartic as it might be to go grab the AR and take a suicide run at the nearest representatives of the federal government, the result would just be a propaganda victory for our right wing.

This is another typical strawman. There are an almost infinite number of options between "do nothing" or "suicide for the cause". People like you skip them all to pretend there are only 2 and since it's unreasonable to ask you kill yourself for the revolution, "do nothing" is your only choice... right?

I am not sitting here doing nothing

Then why are you defending that position... if you are doing something, my message is definitely not for you.

... it is small comfort to people actively being bombed, but ultimately decades of right wing is not going to be undone in a day.

You (and by you I mean Americans) have had decades... and your collective inaction has led us here, let's not pretend you have been actually fighting this for years and simply got nothing for it

Also lol at calling for a general strike. Every time that has been done it has been preceded by massive organization by an actual labor movement that haven’t had since the 70’s to ensure that people are able to get their needs met in the meanwhile.

See what I mean? "it's too hard, so back to doing nothing and pretending we are the victims here"

While I agree this is most likely AI... Possums carry their young on their back and sometimes it looks like this... Now, this "young ling" seems a tad to big and the possum's snout does look super sus as well

Isn't it obvious Israel is doing everything they can to break the ceasefire? it's the exact same Nazi bullshit they have always done

Hi all,

Most recipes and videos I have seen online start with a yogurt based marinade for the chicken. The chicken is then "seared", removed from the pan, rest of sauce built up and chicken returned to finish cooking.

My issue here is that you cannot really sear wet stuff in a pan. So that chicken, covered in yogurt marinade will not really sear (even if you shake off the excess). You basically get a braising conditions in the pan. This probably DOES work in a grill as the marinade simply drips into the coals and burns but not in a pan.

So the question is:

  • Wouldn't it be better to dry rub the chicken so it could be seared and simply use the yogurt (and rest of wet ingredients for the marinade) as a deglazing liquid afterwards?
 

So I park my snow blower in the garage and would like the snow residue to melt in place and not go all over.

I built this giant tray with a ramp so I can push the blower on it, that way the snow will stay on the tray.

I will caulk the seams and paint it with some resistant paint but I'll like to either glue a tarp on it, or some other plastic material or perhaps use some special coating so it lasts a few years.

The "floor" of the tray is OSB (aspenite?). Not the best for this is what I had and this project is more of an experiment for me.

Any recommendations?

Hi Lemmy,

I want to do a project that involves concrete. Basically I am making steps, giving them texture and stamping them so it looks somewhat like stones.

I have watched a million videos and I feel I can tackle this, plus I have a lot of areas to practice that won't be too visible so if the steps look a bit amateur it's fine.

My biggest question is about the effort of mixing concrete. I have a corded drill with a mixing paddle and most steps won't require much. However a few are larger and I would have to mix 10 bags or so. The drying time allows me to work one at a time and then do my stamping but I was wondering if this is feasible from an effort perspective.

I am an experienced DIYer but have not worked much with concrete, I made a coffee table, post bases, etc but never something that requires so many bags... am I setting myself up for failure / a broken back? hehehe

 

"Unexpectedly"... who would have thought that taking a chainsaw to all establish trade could be an issue?!
