Yes, let's call it "good eye" and not "damn, you really had this meme burnt into your terminally-online brain cells to the point where you'd recognize this random internet cat from a different picture".
That is a much better name, yes, haha.

I feel like it's a reasonable amount, if that's the primary taste you want, which doesn't instill a ton of confidence in me that hubbi actually likes the taste of eggs that much.

Like, there's healthier foods that carry this taste better, namely tomatoes. For proteins, a classic combination is white beans in tomato sauce...

Damn, is that another selfie from this cat?

Meme titled "Divorced men after 40 on dating apps" showing various pictures of cats in awkward angles or with unusual expressions. One of the cats looks a lot like the cat in the OP.

The pattern looks the same...

At first I thought, this was the same beats, just with staggered emphasis, but no, that's 30 eighths in the timespan of 14 eighths.

So, it's like the bassoons are playing sixteenth notes, except that they're decidedly not in sync with everyone else.
At first it'll sound like they're too early. Then their offbeat sixteenth will sync up with the on-beat for everyone else. Then their offbeat will sound like it's too early compared to the on-beat, until they sync up properly again. Well, and then you do that cycle a second time, because they have to fit two extra notes in there.

Yeah, that does seem quite impossible to conduct, but even if you set up two metronomes, that'll throw even good orchestras quite easily...

I artificially limit myself to Creative Commons music. Never been particularly convinced of digital ownership, so I prefer stuff that I can re-download at any time. I do also like a lot that I can share the music files freely.

Well, and a very personal reason for limiting the selection, is that I'm a hobby musician myself. It helps convince my brain that my own music is worth creating, if I'm not constantly bombarded with an infinite selection of amazing music...

Oh wow, so it's kind of suffering from success, in that you might have understood it better, if it didn't have a translation for your native language... 😅

Interesting. Presumably, enough of their customers now show up without the appropriate coins, due to electronic payment methods being available otherwise, that they decided to not require coins.

Here in Germany, where we hold onto cash a bit more dearly due to our Stasi-past, I don't know any shop where I can take a shopping cart without sticking a coin in...

From what I know of large corporations, I'd honestly be surprised, if the Microsofties they met, knew that this was happening...

Yeah, this is a rather US-specific meme...

[–] Ephera@lemmy.ml 1 points 1 week ago (4 children)

Hmm, is there a way to improve that, like a different word that's normally used? I could probably contribute a fix for the translation to the project...

There should be a menu-button with which you can open the inventory:

KDE Discover and GNOME Software can install from FlatHub (or other Flatpak repos, if you add those).
