Help: I'm dealing with hundreds of ripe plums
  • search for tkemali sauce recipes. It's a Georgian plum sauce that is great with meats and vegetables. I've used it on pork, chicken, fried potatoes. In Georgia, it is about as common as ketchup is in the USA. There is red tkemali made from ripe plums and green made from unripened. Green is my favorite, but both are really good. I think the plums used in Georgia are a wild plum, but I made some last month with red plums I bought at Kroger. You might have to visit an international market to get some of the spices.

    edit: recipe that i used, minus a couple spices i didn't find in time, but it still turned out good.

  • poetry @lemmy.ml saba @lemmy.ml

    Help finding a poem

    Hello, I'm trying to find a poem I read somewhere once and I'm not having any luck with any search engines. I've also tried chatgpt and it keeps suggesting different poems.

    What I remember about the poem: I think the stanzas begin with "I sometimes think..." and the poem ends with something like "in fact I do little but lie on my back, but I sometimes think." Also, it rhymes zinc with think, something like "or study the crystal structure of zinc"

    edit: the end is something like this:

    I sometimes think I should learn to play the sackbut

    or study the crystal structure of zinc

    In fact I do little but lie on my back but

    I sometimes think

  • I am a substitute teacher in southern Illinois. At the schools where I've worked, the students get chromebooks at the beginning of the school year and use these for much of their coursework and exams. Some students had notebooks, but I never saw any carrying textbooks.

    The teachers had digital whiteboards and also there were projectors in every class where the teacher could project from their computer.

  • That Computer Scientist - Nix is the New Arch!
  • I'm new to NixOS, just installed it a few days ago, so I can't say much about it's pros and cons, but the installer was easy and I installed and booted into the new system very quickly. I think it might have been udpated in the past year, because I am watching a tutorial video from a year ago and he installs it via command line from the live iso.

    edit: it also gave me a default configuration.nix which I've just been adding to (to get nginx with letsencrypt running, plus extra packages I wanted installed)

  • The Linux Experiment - NIX OS: the best package manager on the most solid Linux distribution
  • Is it a big learning curve? Is this the emacs equivalent of OS configuration/installation?

    edit: another question - Could I play around with it by installing in qemu and if I like that, take my configuration.nix from qemu and install it as my main OS?

  • Throwing in the towel on mobile Linux
  • I'm thinking about getting a Oneplus 6, so I've been curious how it's working for people. I'd get another pinephone, but for now I'd rather wait and see if they release another phone. The Pro is already over a year and half old and I'd like to see if they release something new. Also, I don't have a lot of money to spend, so maybe a used Oneplus is best for now.

    I finally got waydroid to run on my pinephone about a month ago and after playing with it for an hour or so I realized I don't really need it for anything and it's a waste of resources/space. So I uninstalled it. Are you using phosh, sxmo or what? I've been playing with gnome shell on pinephone and pinetab recently, but I really like sxmo.

  • Throwing in the towel on mobile Linux
  • I guess it depends on how you rank the importance of each of those. For me, I can get an SMS from my bank with a 2FA code to login (I know, less secure), so I don't need a specific app and can use the website. Hotspot isn't very important for me, but it does work(when my modem worked.) I'd also move bluetooth audio lower on importance to me. Can't argue with telephony being on top. I wonder how it is with pmOS on Oneplus 6? I have a pinephone, but the modem is dead/not recognized or something anymore, so now it's just a mini tablet that I always leave at home.

    New rolling release Linux Distro enters Alpha: Musl, systemd-fork, Freebsd userland
  • just downloaded it and booted it up in qemu. started up fast and working well. I ran apk upgrade. I've really liked using apk on postmarketOS and have thought before that if I switch distros on my laptop or desktop that I'd like to try Alpine(currently Void on laptop/desktop.) But now I might consider Chimera. Interested to see how the project develops, but looks like it's off to a good start.

  • How a a Rural Community in Armenia Built Their Own Internet
  • good read. I hope more villages in Georgia and Armenia will do the same. I lived in a small village in Georgia in 2012 and had mobile internet at 5 gigabytes a month. I had to choose between video calls with family, downloading/streaming for entertainment and always had to think about how much data I'm consuming. I was checking my data balance multiple times a day sometimes.

    Things have improved since then. There are some wired providers in some areas, but the infrastructure still isn't there in many places.
