The president is not a decorative figurehead. His primary role is defending the constitution. That has extreme value. He is not prime minister, has no administrative power, but that doesn’t diminish his very important role. That said I’m not thrilled about the Portuguese current political scenario

I too find this such a nice refreshing take on wikipedia. It’s only been a few days, hope the developer improves it further. I realize some kind of recommendation algorithm opens a pandora’s box, but one can dream

Thanks for improving my vocabulary 🙏 I mean it, or I wouldn’t have asked. Now can offer you a cup of tea?

Sorry, late reply. Not a native speaker, and although I know a bit of english, I struggle with some culinary terms. I thought broil was when you heat water just below boiling point, like 80°C instead of 100°. What’s the term for that? It’s more like poaching 😅

The green variety you shouldn’t brew as hot Just a broil (is that the word?) And also leave it longer in the “stew”

You’re so right. Azores (a part of Portugal) produces some great tea. Love the green variety

You might be overthinkya 😅

Gotchya

I don’t want to go on a wikipedia hunt right now, for potato starch, but if you could educate me further, I would appreciate it

Potatoes are a grain? Actually where do potatoes come from? I know they can come from other potatoes, but of course there must be a grain.

These are the hard questions

So can I still have my tea or what? I’m inclined to trusting you over some barcelonians

The problem is not teens accessing social media, they’re just bored or don’t know any better

The problem is what adults post on those social media.

If anything teens should have social media of their own, where no elder boomers are allowed

“Your beautiful siblings?”

“Yep”

After that slip he still bends the knee. Good old classic reliable Tim Apple

First time I hear of someone having problems opening whatever format in vlc. I mean if there’s a program that reads each an everyone of them it’s VLC

I have an office account for work. I don’t happen upon the troubles people report here. I couldn’t leave MS as I basically use all their stuff for work (and so do the several other hundreds of employees here). But teams does work well: texting, videocalls with 100s of participants, recording meetings, file repositories

I use teams every day. My only gripe recently is the messages like “look the wonderful things we did to improve it” that I didn’t need and will probably never use, but I press the little X don’t know don’t care

No. Just the same shit with less users. Let it grow (by the millions as lemmy is trying to convince us) and you’ll see. I say we get back to smoke signals
