Haha, thanks :)

Well, I don't use any social media (besides Lemmy), so that helps :) There are a couple of Whatsapp group chats where I rarely participate, but I muted those, so I don't get any alerts.

I do, and not only on Lemmy, but also Whatsapp, Teams, email etc. It's the fear of screwing up and/or missing out, and a wave of anxiety combs over me when I see a number >0. I've been talking with my therapist about it, there are reasons and methods to overcome this...

They didn't go into details, just made sure I fear talking about it again. Losing my parents was incentive enough. And I've never heard them talk about the regime ever again.

A few months later, in December of '89, as more and more cities around the country were revolting, my parents suddenly took me to my grandparents' in the countryside, and they went back to town. I didn't know why. A few days later I saw on TV the "we're free" news, with footage from around the country and the new "National Salvation Front" political party taking over. I didn't understand much then, but I remember being proud that they finally "arrested the guy" (they executed him and his wife by firing squad, on Christmas day).

I grew up in a rough communist regime. I was really young when I overheard my parents talking about how the "supreme leader" was bad and things were starting to boil the next town over. There was nothing on TV or radio. Innocent me just asked my dad like, if he's that bad, why don't they just arrest the guy? They didn't realize I actually understood what they were talking about. I can still remember, to this day, 36 years later, how the soul left my parents' body in an instant, and we had a looong conversation about how I should never say anything like that ever again. People disappear when they talked like that, and "you don't want your mum and dad to go away, do you"?

A few months later there was a nation wide uprising, people died, the regime fell, and they actually arrested the guy.

I started The Final Empire, the first book in the Mistborn trilogy from Brandon Sanderson. Mostly because it's a "default" when talking about fantasy, and I really enjoyed The Blade Itself from Abercrombie. I was pleasantly surprised, and I couldn't put it down. Absolutely loved it! I immediately continued with the second book (Well of Ascension).

[–] beerclue@lemmy.world 4 points 2 weeks ago

I love reading, but lack the time to do it. I listen to audiobooks when commuting, I would love to get more time to do that. So I recommend that.

What about a color e-reader with some comics or ebooks? Or watch/listen some classes that fit your interests online? Brandon Sanderson has his creative writing classes for free on YouTube, and there are so many more that might interest you...

I managed to finish it. It was interesting, especially the first half. The ending was kinda disappointing though...

Can't guarantee the authenticity of the recipe, I'm an East-European living in Germany, so I just used a few online recipes and the ingredients I had available :)

Pan-fried 1kg turkey breast chunks, set aside. In the same pan, cooked shallots, garlic, fresh ginger, fresh turmeric, lemongrass, galangal, coriander seeds, lime leaves. Stirred in 50g panang curry paste and 500ml coconut milk.

Simmered 10 min, then added turkey back in with some carrot matchsticks. Turned off the heat, finished with chopped red chilli, coriander leaves, spring onions.

Served with jasmine rice.

 

This always annoys me. I land on a site that's in a language I don't understand (say, Dutch), and I want to switch to something else. I open the language selector and... it's all in Dutch too. So instead of Germany/Deutchland, Romania/România, Great Britain, etc, I get Duitsland and Roemenië and Groot-Brittannië...

How does that make any sense? If I don't speak the language, how am I supposed to know what Roemenië even is? In some situations, it could be easier to figure it out, but in some, not so much. "German" in Polish is "Niemiecki"... :|

Wouldn't it be way more user-friendly to show the names in their native language, like Deutsch, Română, English, Polski, etc?

Is there a reason this is still a thing, or is it just bad UX that nobody bothers to fix?

Pan fry shrimp in a bit of peanut oil, lightly salt (I had a 800g frozen pack), set aside.

Sauté 1 diced onion, 4 garlic cloves, thumb of ginger in the same pan.

Add 3 spoons curry powder mix (I used turmeric, cumin, coriander, chili) and 2 spoons of tomato paste.

Stir in 500 ml coconut milk + 100 ml water. Simmer 5–10 min.

Add back the shrimp just to heat up for a couple minutes.

Finish with juice of half lime.

For the raita - I used ~500g greek yoghurt, with a grated cucumber (drained the water), a clove of garlic, a pinch of salt, the juice from half lime, and some fresh mint. (It's very similar to tzatziki, without the dill and less garlic.)
