    My thoughts for something like that would be either mustard (dijon, although it has a similar sort of pungency to horseradish), peppercorn sauce or red wine and rosemary butter (or similar)? Whipped chive butter sounds quite nice!

    Unless I'm drastically misinterpreting what you're trying to make - I assume you're referring to some kind of sauce or flavouring for medallion steaks?

    Fair enough, if that's the scope of your knowledge anyway then it makes sense. Could just be something to add in a later version (unicode wasn't built in a day after all)!

    Also in addition to my other comment, it would be nice to add the circumflex, forward/backward accents (even if they're possible just show them before/after the main alphabet in the preview).

    Also, ë, ï and why not ÿ to complete the set? :)

    As nottheengineer pointed out, the umlauts being conjoined just doesn't feel right - your reasoning behind it makes total sense, it's just a little bit too wrong for my eyes.

    I would instead personally prefer them misaligned/asymmetrical (ouch, i know) as that would make what they are clear (i would probably take a minute to adjust to that and imo that's not something that should be necessary for a typeface.

    That nitpick aside, it does feel very well-rounded to look at, you did well!

    I mean you know better than me (I'm not even on twitter so everything i see is just the internet perspective of it). I'll take your word for it as you're probably right!

    I wasn't really involved with social media back then sadly, but yes I did get that general impression. Before all the toxicity really overtook it around 2020 it did seem quite pleasant.

    Shame really, corporate greed taking something quite nice and milking it so hard it's absolutely ruined. Then again, it gives way to things like bluesky so i guess it has its upsides!

    Fair enough, i guess being that cheap it's like many things - a roulette wheel of quality. Probably one of those things where I haven't used anything else so don't know what's good and what isn't!

    Glad i recommended taking my judgement with a pinch of salt.

    I'm not massively experienced with 3D printing so take this with a grain of salt.

    That said though, I would personally consider what you would be doing in the future: If you're just going to use it occasionally for small projects then it probably isn't worth spending more than about 300€, but if you're likely to use it a lot and eventually start to print more complex / intricate things and/or more often then getting a slightly nicer one would end up being worth it in my opinion!

    Personally I have an Anet A8 (about 200€), it's very basic and needs a lot of manual fiddling. Fortunately though, with a bit of tweaking in a slicer, it can produce quite nice prints in a reasonable time which is just fine for me as I only print infrequently and mostly things that don't need to be too precise. There might be something better for that price point but if you're just looking for something cheap that gets the job done then it'd probably serve you well!

  • Can someone explain to me the difference between "community-driven" and "corporate-driven" distributions and its implications?

    Motivations by the company have been explained far better than I could by the other replies, but from both mine and other people's experience, some software when installed via snaps seems to perform badly compared to any other method of installation (notably chrome and firefox i think). Also snap isn't really bringing anything special to the table whereas flatpak has a more interesting containerised approach from what I'm aware.

    In any case with the way ubuntu's going I'm really not over the moon with anything canonical (and i don't think I'm alone)

    From what I understand and to continue your example of Ubuntu-based distros:

    As you say, Ubuntu itself is corporate-driven, so there are things in there that exist pretty much solely to benefit Canonical (e.g the telemetry they recently introduced if i recall correctly)

    Most of the time when basing distros off of others, I think it's to keep a lot of features - either to save dev time or because they only want to tweak a small portion of the distro and not write a new one from scratch.

    Because devs can modify the entire codebase, they can remove features that are corporate-driven (telemetry and such) and effectively create something fully (or mostly) compatible yet without such features.

    Another major example imo is the removal of snaps, which most people (myself included) strongly dislike - as far as I'm aware removing them in Ubuntu itself is quite a difficult process as it's baked into the distro itself. I imagine a lot of people want something like Ubuntu as it is quite friendly and has one of the lower bars of entry for Linux, but object to corporate things like telemetry and the overall monstrosity that is snaps.

    Apologies, i went down a bit of a tangent, but I hope that roughly answers your question!

    Perhaps it's the case that if there are specific 'safe-use' spaces, people won't have to do such things in their own home and instead have other places to do - if people have somewhere where they can safely consume drugs and have medical help/supervision then theoretically the need to do that in private becomes unnecessary?

    I see your point however as I only have a 20 minute daily commute and yet still often come across the smell of weed once or twice!

    Security & privacy on this instance / lemmy as a whole?

    I've just come from the reddit exodus and I'm looking around for some documentation or info on the privacy & security on infosec.pub and/or lemmy as a platform - how our logins are stored and whether data is accessible by developers / other parties. Does anyone know where I can find more information on this? (Or if not could you shed some light) This platform seems incredibly promising and I'm sick of reddit's ways now, but i want to read up before I fully commit. Many thanks! (Edit - sorry if this isn't an appropriate place for this by the way, just seemed a sensible community to put it in!)
