I tried to think of a name. Then I thought of this.

Huh I hear the same word used occasionally in english. I wonder if that’s regional or not.
Huh I thought a galette was more like a tart.
I pug all my FFXIV content.
Cid Vicious@sh.itjust.worksOPto Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•What's your favorite Lemmy mobile client?English1·20 days agoWas trying out Voyager and Thunder yesterday. Thunder seems like the winner to me. Voyager’s appearance isn’t customizable enough for my tastes. I am not a gesture person (I prefer to turn swipe actions for posts and comments off entirely) and really need more tappable things for Voyager to work for me.
One thing I would like in thunder is the ability to hide more of the interface when replying to comments. I have large thumbs and in landscape mode (which I type in exclusively) the button bar takes up a lot of space that could be better used for seeing my typed text and the comment I’m replying to.
I think in the US it’s synonymous with pancakes mostly but it may refer to more old-fashioned, rugged, whole wheat ones that are a bit thicker than most modern pancakes. It’s definitely a bit ambiguous though. Whatever you linked to is definitely not something I’ve ever seen or heard of in the US though. Edit: I’ll also mention I’m not sure what golden syrup is. We have stuff like karo or molasses as baking ingredients, or various maple or maple-ish syrups that typically top pancakes.
I think it will probably vary regionally. Diners and breakfast places often have lots of variations. A couple others I thought of are griddle cakes (old-fashioned pancakes) and saddlebags (which are pancakes mixed with meat and other stuff). I’ve seen stuff like yeast-raised whole wheat pancakes (which I don’t know if they have a particular name). I could also name a few places where you could get things like okonomiyaki or scallion pancakes in my city. Those super thick Japanese-style pancakes also seem to be kind of trendy. America is a big place and there’s lots of food variety.
Well in America we have pancakes, flapjacks, Dutch babies, crepes, Johnny cakes, and probably other things I’m forgetting about that are pancake-adjacent.

Cid Vicious@sh.itjust.worksto Showerthoughts@lemmy.world•It's weird that a room with just a toilet and sink is called a "half bath", when it in fact has zero bathtubs.English1·22 days agoIt’s a euphemism. “Water closet” is another old fashioned word for a bathroom.

Not really, no. You can block communities that allow those types of posts, however.
Edit: I say this because I’m making a couple of assumptions here. Mainly that you’re not talking about direct links to onlyfans, but rather the people who post pictures of themselves to tangentially related communities trying to lure people into clicking on their profile where they have a link to their onlyfans. You can certainly block individual users so that might be good enough. As for blocking links to specific domains I don’t think that’s supported on the web client (it would a nice feature) but it might be available in some of the apps.

Cid Vicious@sh.itjust.worksto Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•How to get a 5 yo started in (useful) computing?English2·1 month agoI did Logo back in the 80s on Apple ][s and I still remember it. Definitely recommended and I’m surprised that schools don’t try to incorporate things like this more.
Cid Vicious@sh.itjust.worksto Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•What is your favorite pasta shape?English3·2 months agoBucatini is nice. Or pappardelle.
Power dynamics is definitely part of it, and I’ve found that I have much better luck in interviews when I treat them as a conversation rather than just being grilled. It’s easier to do in your 40s than in your 20s though.
Cid Vicious@sh.itjust.worksto Programmer Humor@programming.dev•The Right SkillsEnglish53·2 months agoOn the one hand the way corporations expect loyalty and devotion all the time in return for a very small percentage of their profits being paid out to us as salary sucks. On the other, having to work if you want to eat is just kind of…life? Not saying we couldn’t work on something better as a society, but there’s been very few people at any point in human history who didn’t have to work hard to survive. I’m glad that I get to at least do soulless work in an office which is mostly just boring instead of hard labor or something actively dangerous.
AC mainly. I have a ceiling fan as well.
