That leaves Reddit as a decommissioned sewage treatment plant turned into a bum fight squat haven.

Thanks for the heads up.

I really appreciate these suggestions. Thank you.
Since you mentioned alt-grains, I'll admit I'm more interested in leaner "ancient" alternatives to rice, but sometimes I still test my glycemic threshold with brown rice variants; basmati and jasmine.
Zojirushi has been recommended to me before, so this is starting to ring true. Your stovetop notions are hands down agreeable. Thanks for introducing me to the hob top. Smart!

The market on these things is as infinite as jelly beans. Each style has a distinct feature that puts them in an entirely different meal prep category from the next. If I have to research all these countertop appliances, I'll be lead into thinking a $2k, everything-in-one, multi-tiered, programmable dutch oven with an air fry drawer and a Bluetooth notification should exist, but I only just want a quick cooker / steamer with simple, but somewhat custom basic controls. . If it could offer a clear-top lid and simmer options, it could be used to steam, nurse soup, and serve as a base for grains into the mix, which would be incredible, especially with a rack. That's my vision I imagine exists.

I'm seeing the 5-ply with copper/steel as the recommended quality design. The coveted design in my objectives is a zero-chance of hot spots or burn spots because the steel wool needed to scratch off carbon cakes will destroy the lining and ensure permanent burn zones and potentially metal contamination.

I'm especially interested to know about ideal material designs and surface lining ethics because I won't do "non-stick" plastics that overheat and crisp off into my meals; nor cheap, low-integrity poly/alloy finishes.

From a wholesome view, I would love to believe a countertop electric device with a ceramic coating like a dutch oven could be realistic because dutch ovens largely prevent hot spots, cook and steam perfectly, and they often wipe clean, but I hear the 5-ply steel design is better than the "red copper" concept of aluminum, copper, and ceramic.

I would love to know what's working and not working for others, and what's out there that makes the most sense at a good value.

That's nearsighted. Do you wear glasses? Do they give you headaches?

[-] Clerkle@lemmy.world 0 points 10 months ago

Not a complaint but a question based on the fact. I wasn't complaining, but you very much so did to me.

Looks like I'll be learning about bridges.

How does that not defeat the purpose of Proton?

At least the OAuth2 access is protected. That's the detail I needed to see.

So many articles suck these days.

That's the direct implication of the innate nature of capitalism. News publishers drive researchers and writers into mill writing which unfortunately involves reworded mimicry of the few who publish the original "investigative research" they recorded from the source. They're doing it for money too, so they aren't alloted enough time to fully investigate off they want to publish their name to juicy details first before those who can and will fully investigate it to publish a full exposé.

We expect news publishers to dramatize titles for the click-bait effect at their websites. But within a public forum platform (here), reposting the click-bait title into the community post effectively misleads forum readers because this space is personable and honest, so we expect an honest post title here. News publishers know this and exploit that in Reddit, but hopefully not here. Every time I see OPs copy-posting and running off, I have to suspect industry marketing efforts in effect, perhaps especially when OP is a bot.

I really don't want to see Lemmy become polluted with news marketing as though this platform is at all open to the same abuse as that socialist dictatorship platform we left to be here.

The title seems dramatic, but using the Outlook client to link a third-party account is supposed to connect to those emails with the respective credentials, right?

Why bridged to Thunderbird?

[-] Clerkle@lemmy.world 2 points 10 months ago

Yeah, but that 500MB storage . . . needs a game plan.

Ah — that slider is a new experience for me, and it wasn't clear that vertical bar isn't a photo border. That thing should be marked as interactive. Kudos for the clarification.
