Open Source apps to monitor the best-before dates of foods? in c/opensource@lemmy.ml
[–] Binzy_Boi@supermeter.social 1 points 4 months ago

I'm aware, just figured it would be a good idea to prioritize those things first, and also use the information I gain to figure out how arbitrary the dates given are.

For example, while logging my spice cabinet just now with the Food Expirations app, I saw that there were a few that were past due that I'm going to look into with how much longer they'd be good for.

Oh thanks! First time adding a new repo to Fdroid. It works now, thanks a million!

Not sure why, but it's not appearing either in the app or on a desktop browser for me. The link you provided leads to a 404.

Open Source apps to monitor the best-before dates of foods? (supermeter.social)
 

Hey all, I'm trying to be a little more economical and reduce the amount of food I waste, and was wondering if there were any open-source apps that can track the best-before dates of the foods I buy so I can improve my meal-planning.

I saw that there's Best-Before on F-Droid, but the last release was in July 2022, and I was curious if there was something more actively maintained.

Huh, thanks for making me aware of this. I'll look into this more. Genuinely appreciate the insight.

Was sarcasm.

Also can't see downvotes on my instance. Not sure why.

Hm, almost as though Democrats should be pressured by voters to abolish the electoral college... wonder what will change their stance on that.

Maybe... if the Democrats saw their support weakening as a result of their terrible policies... hmmmm.

You need to do some critical thinking. Vote for the person who best aligns with your beliefs, not which of the two big names you hate less.

Ah yes, label me as a Trump sympathizer, cause that definitely helps your cause with the average joe.

Edit: This you calling me a Russian agent?

Vote for an independent candidate. People have this wild notion that voting for a third-party candidate means you're throwing your vote away.

You're not. You're voting for the candidate that best represents your values. People who say otherwise have fallen for the brainrot talking point that's been around since Ross Perot ran in '96.

Because the right would support Palestine, that's absolutely how this works.

Agree with their protest or not, you can't "lock them up" for this. The video clearly shows a peaceful protest with no violence involved. Locking them up would violate their free speech rights.

Open source Linktree Alternatives? (supermeter.social)
 

Hey all, I've been using Singlelink for a while now as an open source alternative to Linktree. Issue with it has been that development has been incredibly slow, and now it's completely unreliable for me as my page now gives a 403 and my account no longer works for unknown reasons.

Is there any other open source Linktree alternatives that preferrably work better than Singlelink? I appreciate any help in advance.

Should I get out into the dating scene while losing weight, or after I do so? (supermeter.social)
 

Hey all, not often I do this, but figured it might be a good idea to make myself vulnerable with something I dislike about myself to maybe get some helpful input as to how to approach this weird dilemma I'm having.

So I [M24], have been struggling with my weight for a few years now. Mainly it's been an issue that's been tied to my mental health, and for the last year I've been doing intensive work on improving my mental health, which includes dealing with the root cause of my weight issues.

For a long time I've been in the mindset of wanting to wait until after I shed the pounds before getting into the dating scene. Reason being is that I personally prefer a certain body type, and it just feels hypocritical and gross to have that expectation going into a relationship when I'm not meeting the expectations for the body type I want for myself.

On the other hand, I had a coworker [F22] at my old job admit that she at one point had feelings for me, so since then it has me thinking if I'm stressing too much about my weight as important as I feel it is for me to address it.

I've also had friends tell me that I need to have more self-confidence in regards to my body, but I'm split on trusting their words because I'm fully aware I'm not at a healthy weight currently and don't want to deny that.

I'm having trouble determining what to do from here, because I really want to go out and meet new people and perhaps mingle since I've been craving a romantic relationship for ages now and know that things are likely going to take more time for me than most others because of my sexual identity.

However on the other hand, I still worry about the aforementioned possibility of coming off as hypocritical, having my weight be a deciding factor at first glance for people when this isn't who I want to be, and having my weight literally get in the way of other things (I worry about it maybe making hugs and/or cuddles awkward for a potential partner.

What would be the best plan of action for me to take?

Where can I get access to old Alberta newspapers? (supermeter.social)
 

Hi all,

I was wondering if anybody knew where I could access to some old newspapers based in Alberta. I've been working on expanding information about the Calgary music scene in MusicBrainz, and I've been getting to a point where finding information on some bands online has been a pain with some having next to no information online.

Thanks for any help in advance!
