King Charles to receive huge pay rise from UK taxpayers
Reply in thread
A lot of people take for granted that they're paid in chickens instead of a more liquid form of recompense. That's problematic too.

That wouldn't have helped. Don't consider this a secure messaging platform, or use this to communicate banking details or something.

A simple solution at cost of minor aesthetic changes

I tried to find more information about this repeatedly, because it's so unbelievable that the city would allow it. I found no other sources. Only chatter that this was an April fool's joke. That seems to be the case. Certainly someone would have posted video of this by now.

Japanese Sandwiches
Egg salad, yes. Pork cutlet, hell yes.
Not at all interested in a strawberry sandwich though, thanks.

Oklahoma-Style Onion Burger
You need to cut the onion thinner. They're not frying by the time the burger finishes.

I'm about to delete my Lemmy account, because I'm a pessimistic hipster.

[I made] A charcuterie spread for some friends

Needs bigger plates. You've got slices of meat stuffed under cheese that will have to be pulled loose like a tablecloth covered with dishes. And don't pre-slice the cheese.. it's more appetizing to have irregular, not perfectly rectangular chunks.

Sign language is just radio communication but on another frequency
"Modulation is the process of converting data into radio waves by adding information to an electronic or optical carrier signal. A carrier signal is one with a steady waveform -- constant height, or amplitude, and frequency." Which stream of photons is the carrier signal?
Oh, so it's a bunch of different ones that contain different signals that can't be decoded into any additional information other than the presence of an object i.e. ordinary eyesight.
The information is actually encoded in the spatial position of the receivers(i.e. retinal cells)? That's not radio communication, anymore than a radio telescope detecting a pulsar is "communication" from a star. If there was some intentional encoding of information in a manner that was relatively indifferent to the position of the observers of the signal, I might agree. Such as, opening and closing ones hand in a Morse code. That would be much more akin to radio communication.

Testing. Looks like I had to do that too. Even though it looked like I was able to just log back in.

I get 403 forbidden. Possibly because I'm blocking trackers and you're not?

Yeah, and your link is broken. You'll need to use a different host.
