In Australia at least we usually use tartar sauce for the fish (shark) and ‘chicken salt’ with maybe some vinegar or soy sauce for the chips.

Best giant prawns (langoustines) I’ve had were on the Isle of Skye (at the Oyster Shed)! They weren’t battered, though.
Haha, I guess it’s not on anybody’s “must visit” list; a real hidden gem.
Maybe we should keep quiet about it… don’t want to attract too many people going to/from neighboring Santorini!
Naxos is a great place! Stayed there for a week by mistake (booking site error) and enjoyed it immensely. Very happy accident.
Call it “Xubmarine 420” and tell him he invented it. I think he’d take that bait.
Free as in freedom (libre), not free as in free beer (gratis).
Thanks to the kind stranger(s) who finished off my “RICE LOVE” doodle (top right) while I was sleeping <3
We stayed in a few different places across BC and Alberta. I can remember they all had drip coffee machines, but I can’t actually remember if they were equipped with kettles, too! That being said, the addition of drip coffee makers could have been for American tourists (I did make good use of them though).
I think it’s a default item everywhere except north America.
As part of reviewing a stay, Airbnb always asks if the place had a coffee maker. I’ve only ever ticked yes in the US, Canada, and Indonesia.
(edit: I should clarify, it asks if there was a coffee machine, but it DOESN’T ask if there was a kettle, showing the US-centric app design.)
Although I haven’t explicitly heard anything, I kind of assumed, given the years it’s been on my wishlist :D.
I’ll play it one day, but Dyson Sphere is still filling that hole for me for now.
SO many hundreds of hours spent playing the Q2 mod Action Quake. I heard they remade it and called it, uh, something like “Counter Strike”? Never got into that one, funnily enough.
Brilliant series. I enjoyed the combat and storytelling in equal measure. One of the few single-player games where I’d actually play the challenge maps, just because it was so fun beating up on mobs!
Plants Vs. Zombies!
My wife and I just sat there like… zombies… for the whole day and night until we finished it, and then went to bed surprised and happy when we got our musical reward at the end!
The Flash gaming era at it’s best.
I know a few of the devs on this title but always forget about actually playing it. I think because it’s story-heavy and I followed the development closely I feel like I’ve already played it :D.
For phone gaming may I suggest the PSP game Z.H.P: Unlosing Ranger vs. Darkdeath Evilman.
Given it’s a rogue-like there is a bit of grind to it, but it’s a short game. What makes it a great portable game is that it is action, but turn-based, so you can think through your next move, and don’t have to struggle with quick inputs on imprecise controls.
Edit: Oh, and since you like Suikoden, maybe try PSX title Lunar: Silver Star Story Complete. More story driven than combat, and the PSX version is the 2nd remake with many features added aimed at enhancing the story telling more than anything.
Factorio! That thing is never on sale…
Haha, same here! Now I’m subscribed, but not toooo disappointed I didn’t know this community existed earlier, because I’m a patient lemmy user. I’ve conquered my FOMO!
Digital nomad in Indonesia here. People are friendly, food is great, scenery is beautiful, and weather is cool but not cold this time of year. I wouldn’t live here full time, but I wouldn’t live anywhere full time (because I am a nomad!).
I don’t agree with many of the laws here but that is true of pretty much everywhere.
I’m in Indonesia. When the rebrand announcement happened I checked x.com and it was indeed blocked. But twitter.com worked fine (I mean, worked just like you’d expect a garbage dump to).
I checked a couple days later and it was the same. Now both work correctly.
If twitter.com got blocked it must have been for a very short period and at a weird time. I can’t imagine a redirect from a previously unrelated website triggering a block.
Isn’t another part of the problem is how rural the population is? With a population of 9m, only 1.7m live in Budapest, and the second biggest city is only 200k. The rural population only consumes Hungarian propaganda and doesn’t get any other perspective.
