    What's something you did once but won't do again?
  • other_cat other_cat 1w ago 100%

    Had a tamer but similar hill near my home growing up. Loved speeding down. It ended in a lot filled with gravel. Fortunately the day I spun out on the gravel lot was coming from a different, slower direction. Developed an extremely bad case of road rash all over one leg. When I realized what might have happened if I'd been taking the hill instead, that I probably would have broken my legs or worse, I stopped going down that hill. Realization of mortality can be like a bucket of ice water sometimes.

  • People older than 35: do you remember the first time you used a GPS device to get somewhere?
  • other_cat other_cat 3w ago 100%

    I bought a garmin specifically to help me navigate moving on my own halfway across the USA. It was my first time moving out. It was my first time on such a long drive by myself. Lots of firsts. (I actually forgot my phone back home, since the garmin was its own device, I was more focused on having that than my cheap ass phone. Wound up pulling into a Walmart to buy a Tracfone lol)

    Prior to that I used MapQuest a lot

  • What is your favourite breakfast food?
  • other_cat other_cat 1mo ago 100%

    Omelettes. So versatile. So good. Of all the combos I love bacon and mushrooms in my american cheese omelettes best of all.

    Pancakes are a close second.

    Learning to flip things in any cookware is still a work in progress for me, but it always gives impressively better results when I can manage it, so it's something I want to master!

    I find that also cuts down on how much your eyes water (for the onions)

    Pasta water as an emulsifier was also a huge technique for me :)

  • A lot of good cooking is in technique. What's something that you discovered or was told that really changed something meaningful for you? For me, I had struggled a lot to make omelettes. They always wound up becoming scrambled eggs because I sucked at flipping them over to cook on the other side (I like my eggs cooked pretty well so this was important to me.) Finally, watching someone else make an omelette, I noticed they didn't flip it. They put a lid on the pan, turned the heat down, and let the top cook that way. I tried it myself and now I make almost perfect omelettes every time. Have you had anything like this happen to you? If so, what was it?

    What part of your life could be improved with software?

    There have been many times I've passed on something because it had a subscription fee but would have bought as a one time purchase. I feel like everyone's forgotten that it's an option.

  • Why are people on the internet (and Lemmy) so quick to say someone "deserves to die"
  • other_cat other_cat 1mo ago 100%

    I'm with you on the confusion because it's like... I don't feel the need to act this way, why do other people? What drives them that, in a void, they resort to these thoughts and behaviors? Is this who they really are, or is it an act, like doing an evil playthrough in a game. "I want to because I can here, and I can't anywhere else?"

    Last time I asked that the only thing they liked was that I briefly held a job that wasn't related to the field at all. It was working at a library. "I thought that was neat."

    That was it. Nothing else was noteworthy.
