I had an extraordinary experience today, but it didn't relate to a hobby or career or political topic. I tried to find an appropriate community but I guess I don't have the right terms. Where can one turn to share triumphs, defeats, and sacred moments?

In some 2000-10s comedy, "bish, make me a sandwich" is a common punchline. It begs the question, what goes in the sandwich?

As a follow up, how does that differ from the sandwich you might make for yourself?

I make a traditional pesto and use it for all kinds of recipes. I adore this pesto for soups, pasta, veggies.

However, when I use it for pizza, I get this weird paradox where everything is too salty, but still feels like it needs salt. For toppings I use fresh mozzarella, roasted red peppers and parboiled asparagus. I don't season them to offset the saltiness.

Any suggestions on how to make this pizza perfect?

Tonight I turned on the movie Elf thinking it was another movie entirely. Now I can't, for the life of me, figure out what it was that I intended to watch.

My clearest recollection is of a red car in a chase among an impossibly perfect green field, obviously on a sound stage. The movie was quirky, artful. I thought it featured Zooey Deschanel, but nothing on her IMDB list fits.

I thought it was a movie about corporate actors taking over the North Pole, but maybe it was all a fever dream.

Anyone have ideas what I am looking for?

It's not much to go on, but I'm hoping someone either remembers or has better Google-fu than I do.

Some time in the late 80s or early 90s I read a YA book about a teen-ish girl in the Aluetian Islands. My most vivid memory is of her description of crabs, calling some "Jimmies," and going into extraordinary detail about the fishing process. I have the shadow of a memory that she was the first girl/woman to embark on fishing.

That's all I have to go on. Ring any bells?

Every third product I search for has a check box coupon. Is there any downside to accepting those offers? Why not just list the item at the cheaper price?

I've gone through the prompts to attach an image from my phone's gallery to this post. I suspect that it won't be there, just like my recent attempts to post to pics@lemmy.world. Is this an issue with the app or my instance?

I can't see my own posts in my profile. I guess that's a side effect of my settings to hide all read posts. Still, this is confusing and causes challenges.

I have an A53, running Android 13. I've recently noticed that if I uninstall an app and the reinstall it, it still has login credentials. That leads me to believe that uninstall isn't really deleting all the associated data.

How do I truly purge all the data from these apps from my phone?

I tried to Google the issue, but all the answers wanted me to download additional software, which seems antithetical to my goal.

(Please keep it simple; I'm not so good with tech.)
