Hi #melbourne , I'm going to be visiting you in a few days and I need some help!
Mogmama and I want to have a nice lunch but:
*Somewhere we can sit and eat
*Accessible by car. Even if it's *shudder* paid
*We have limited mobility, long walks are not an option
*Mogmama feels like "asian" cuisine?
*We both detest coriander! Sorry, it's genetics!

Any ideas?

fedinautas lusofalantes que também falam inglês, respondam-me por favor: há alguma tradução de "putaria" (sentido positivo) na língua anglo-saxã que seja menos pomposa que "debauchery"?

Can anyone recommend a place online where I can buy a good heated kotatsu that would ship to Canada?

It gets cold AF in the prairies in winter and this would be a game changer.

Weiß wer von euch, ob sich ein Signal-Account doch vollständig von einem Android-Gerät auf ein IPhone umziehen lässt? Hab nämlich gelesen, dass es absolut nicht ginge oder dass es ginge, aber bis auf die Chatverläufe? Wie sieht's eigentlich andersrum aus? Danke. 🤔 😅

FOSS video player for Android, similar to VLC, *but not* using "AI"?

With all the bots out there that annoy me why can't block more than 50??? Does this depend on the instance or is this a general limitation?

So, if I wanted to start a blog, ideally in the fediverse... What would you recommended?

Self-hosting is, for the time being, not on the table. But are there any WriteFreely instances where I could open an account and start writing?

#FollowerPower, #FediAsk, #FediHelp:

have #search #engine​s just dropped the ability to limit search to a domain?

Searches like

* https://lite.duckduckgo.com/lite/?q=relaxng+site:blog.mro.name
* https://www.qwant.com/?q=relaxng+site:blog.mro.name

don't search the term anymore.

How should I go about?

I'm kind of desperate to hear how other small artist/crafter/maker online shop owners are going to deal with these new hostile EU packaging regulations. One of the biggest issues is the amount of general confusion and lack of clear solutions, with only 6 days left until the legislation starts!

I've started compiling a list of useful links and will continue doing so, but please, please share/boost for better reach! Thank you! 🙏

Chat, I need solid recommendations for a university level advanced English dictionary for iOS. I‘m looking for an app that:
- ​:neocat_laptop_notice:​ offers unrestricted offline use,
- ​:neocat_kisser:​ is well maintained (no abandon-ware)
- ​:neocat_peek_owo:​ respects data privacy ​:neocat_melt_reach:​ as good as it gets,
- ​:neocat_nervous:​ has realistic long-term subscription fees.

Yes, I did some app store research. It‘s littered with outdated apps, tracking greed, low performing apps, general level web based crap.

Please refrain from recommending AI/web based services, thank you. Also thank you for boosting ​:boosts_okgay:​ #fediask #translation #ios #mobileapps #boostswelcome

Où peut-on acheter ou déguster les meilleures baguettes garnies / casse croûtes / croques à Metz ou dans les environs? Merci :)

Kann mir wer Folgendes beantworten:

Warum gibt’s in Deutschland trotz Glasfaser (fast) nur 1Gbit FTTH Internet, obwohl allein eine Faser technisch so viel mehr kann?

Just got up, and my timeline is depressing at best. I like to believe good things happen too. Anyone who has a good story to share? I'll start.

For the past decade, a retired army officer has been restoring centuries old drains to prevent his city from flooding and refill the lakes in the neighbourhood during the monsoon.

@ElSaltoDiario
TIL: La Izquierda means "the left" in Spanish?
That's interesting. Does anybody have an idea what the roots of the "izquierda" word are?

Fedinauts, where can a DJ publish their sets and mixtapes online these days, now that Mixcloud and Soundcloud are not viable anymore? What say you?

edit for clarity: I'm looking to publish DJ-sets and mix(ed)tapes, not original music, my dear people.

#Fediask regarding #OpenEducationalResources (:BoostOK:):

Has anyone around here used a metadata.yml¹ on Codeberg/Github/Gitlab to get their resources listed on @oersi? I am looking for best practices on how to structure the metadata – and, in fact, somebody who got it to work with Codeberg.

Hey internet. I'm looking for a webhoster to get my new website up and running. I'm using a static site generator, so no PHP, database or other shenanigans needed. Just files on a webserver (that I don't have to manage myself).

I'm aware of most of the obvious options (GH pages, CF pages, GL pages, Vercel, Netlify, etc. etc.) but I'd prefer a small-ish non-VC non-AI company/org, ideally European. Any recommendations? Boosts welcome! #lazyWeb #fediAsk #askFedi

Hey metalheads, I'm writing an article and would love some input: which is your favourite all female metal band and what should I hear from them? Any subgenre. Thanks in advance. Tips on mixed gender bands with women instrumentalists are also welcome. My blog is pretty much me screaming into a void at this point, but I'd be happy to credit your fedi accounts in case anyone does read it

Edit: it's online, thanks to all! https://distortthealgorithm.eu/post/gendered-boxes-and-bass-strings/

Habt ihr schon mal auf so einem 800-Gras Infrarotbrenner-Grill etwas in Alufolie gebraten? Feta, Halloumi, Gemüse o.ä.?
Geht das oder schmilzt/brennt die Folie weg?
