  Yeah, the secret is to debloat it all the way to 7. Going under that is not advisable expect under doctors supervision.

  The posts are from march 2023, and there are no ads yet :/

  That would make sence, also the domain is really good (lasinvaihto.fi, translates to windscreenreplacement.fi). Maybe they are planning to sell the domain?

  Recently I was looking for info (in finnish) how to prevent car windows from fogging. I found a really weird website all about car windows, but it was weird since it kept confusing car and house windows. Is instructed to clean car windows by “opening the window and cleaning between the panels”.

  It was obviously ai-generated, but I couldn’t figure out why. They weren’t selling anything, there were no ads and no links to other websites or services.

  Oh it hadn’t occured to me that not only salt causes osmosis. Thank you for the explanation!

  Seems like I’m going to boil the potatoes whole in the future, thanks again :)

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨To prevent mashed potatoes from being gummy, boil the potatoes whole.⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  Isn’t the osmosis minimized when the salt concentration of the water matches that of the potatoes, and thus it shouldn’t affect the saltiness of the end product? Assuming that the water is thrown away of course.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨To prevent mashed potatoes from being gummy, boil the potatoes whole.⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  Do you know whether salting the water heavily affects the water absorption rate of cut potatoes? It should reduce it on cell level, but I don’t know if that is the case with starch

  I assume the problem with kagi is the price, which is hard to swallow as we have get used to free products?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨YSK: You can search (most of?) lemmy as a search engine⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  I suggest going straight to kagi.com, or you can also use your current search engine to find it using query “kagi”.

  But to be serious, it’s great. The search results themselves feel like how google used to feel years ago before the enshittification, and there are many useful features, like changing priority of different websites. I for example have removed all pinterest sites, reduced instagram and increased wikipedia weighting. They have a free 200 search trial, give it a go!

  Thanks, I was wondering whetder this could be achieved using lenses

  Give kagi a shot, it’s paid service, but they have a 100 search trial

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨My Journey⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  Give kagi a try, if you haven’t yet.

  Unfortunately you need to (at least in my experience) purge the feed couple times a year. Just use “not interested” with a heavy hand and a light heart. It tends to recommend new stuff after that.
