Welcome to this week's casual kōrero thread!

This post will be pinned in this community so you can always find it, and will stay for about a week until replaced by the next one.

It's for talking about anything that doesn't justify a full post. For example:

  • Something interesting that happened to you
  • Something humourous that happened to you
  • Something frustrating that happened to you
  • A quick question
  • A request for recommendations
  • Pictures of your pet
  • A picture of a cloud that kind of looks like a hippo
  • Anything else, there are no rules (except the rule)

We’ve got lots as well. Looking at how to use them in other dishes, I found a Herald article - "24 Feijoa Recipes".

It’s an archive link to skip the "pay-for" - https://archive.ph/TzMXj

Your comment didn’t show up until now, I’m guessing due to the federation delays with lemmy.world. In any case is the link still working for you? Doesn’t seem to load for me

It works for me, BUT I need a VPN enabled to read it. The Herald link is a "pay to view" article which the Archive link bypasses. If you don’t have a VPN, take a Google for "Feijoa cake recipes", there’s lots of links to different sites.

Baked some Feijoa cup-cakes today, came out great. Not overly sweet but really yummy.

For the record, the link works for me without a VPN.

The Archive system changes often. Until a few weeks ago, I too could open them without a VPN, but now I need it enabled to do so. 🤷

Strange! Is archive.ph related to archive.org?

Yes, the Archives are all part of the Wayback machine. I don’t fully understand how it’s all linked and why they have a number of different name extensions.
