I can’t help you much as I have a 6600XT, but I can say this is probably the wrong community to get that help. It’s not likely KDE-related.

Before going back to windows, I would boot up an arch-based live iso to see if newer drivers cleared up your problem. I use EndeavourOS, and that has a graphical live environment and should give you a good idea whether your card is working or not. Good luck!

Made a dark loaf using a rye sourdough starter, bread flour, and cocoa powder for color. Pretty happy with the result!

Yeah, it was a little tricky pulling off the twine without tearing the loaf too much (which you can see in the pic).

Planning to make it for thanksgiving instead of rolls, so I did a practice loaf. Turned out great!

Thank you for adding an option to disable swiping on posts and comments! I don’t know when it was added, but it’s a necessary feature for me.

This article from last year compares LLMs to techniques used by “psychics” (cold reading, etc).

I think it’s a great analogy (and an interesting article).

 

Grilled some chicken breasts and thighs, finishing with a sear on my lodge double Dutch oven lid.

Seasoned with Trader Joe’s chili lime seasoning (which is also fantastic on shrimp).

FYI Tylenol PM does have acetaminophen. It’s Tylenol + Benadryl.

You should consider trying an equivalent dose of just Benadryl at night to give your liver a break, especially if you also take regular Tylenol during the day or drink alcohol.

This means something.

I use this recipe to make 2 thick crust pan pizzas:

  • Flour: 420 g (3 1⁄2 cups)
  • Water: 285 g (2 1⁄4 cups)
  • Yeast: 4g (1 1⁄2 tsp)
  • Salt: 8g (1 1⁄2 tsp)
  • Olive Oil: 16 g (1 1⁄4 tbsp)

It works for thin crust too, just reduce the quantities by 25-50%.

Homemade pizza dough (and lean bread in general) is really easy to make at home by hand. The day before you want pizza, just mix everything together into a rough sticky dough ball, let it rest a few minutes, then knead until it’s smooth. Then stick it in the fridge overnight or up to 5 days or so. More time in the fridge means more fermentation and more flavor. After 5 days, it’ll start taking on slight sourdough qualities (though if you want an actual sourdough crust, you’ll need a sourdough starter).

 

First time braiding dough and making challah.

 

Filet mignon in cast iron and ribeye in carbon steel. Dry brined for one day, cooked in avocado oil, basted in ghee and garlic, and finished with a little cracked pepper.

 

Homemade pizza dough and sauce in my Lodge double Dutch oven lid and Darto carbon steel pan. The dough was cold fermented in the fridge then proofed in buttered pans. I cooked the dough on the stove top briefly to help it firm up before adding sauce and toppings.

For a crispier bottom, an alternative is to preheat the pans then add oil and (carefully) spread the proofed dough into the pan before adding toppings and cooking.

First time making saganaki. Halloumi cheese pan-fried in ghee, finished with a squeeze of lemon while in the pan.

The comment editor doesn’t seem to account for the formatting bar, because the bar obscures text being typed at the bottom when it is longer than the size of the editor. This is on iOS and v1.06.

This doesn’t appear to be a problem in the post editor, as I don’t see the same behavior while making this post.

Making ghee (discuss.tchncs.de)

Ghee has been the MVP in my kitchen. It’s a type of clarified butter, where the water is boiled off and the milk solids are toasted before being strained out. This gives ghee a slightly nutty flavor and greatly raises the smoke point, making it suitable for high heat cooking. It’s easy - if a little tedious - to make at home, and it’s great for cooking (and seasoning, IMO) with cast iron.
