And look who I met! @katzazi and @leyrer! Everyone's gravitating towards #emf2024! :D

I also visited University of Oxford's Museum of Science, which showcases a lot of scientific instruments, including some super pretty and old astrolabes!

The museum didn't do a good of explaining how to use them, though. Need to look into that later tonight, maybe! :)

@puniko Me too when I tried it myself today! :D

You can create your own puzzles in the sidebar, and get a link to share with others!

We have daily regexes to guess for the next month, but feel free to send us your ideas, and we'll add them!

Also, we'd be curious to get feedback for how well the site works for people using screenreaders, and what we could improve!

We totally forgot to mention: There's a new Regexle every day!

For today's puzzle, you still have ninety minutes if you're in the UTC+2 time zone! After that, you will have to manipulate your system clock if you want to play it :D

@rachel @fernsehmuell Ohh! Can you send us a screenshot of how it looks like? @piko

Presenting: Regexle, a wordle-like game for nerds 🤓

Guess the secret regular expression by testing strings against it!

@piko and I might be two years late with this project, but here we go!

:yayblob: https://regexle.ithea.de :yayblob:

This is what we'll need:

- 300 g roasted, salted cashews
- 1.5 tbsp lemon or lime juice
- 1 tbsp vinegar
- 1 tsp salt
- 0.5 tsp mustard
- black pepper

Put all ingredients (except the pepper) in a blender.

You could also use an immersion blender, maybe you'd need to stir it up a couple of times with a spoon.

This time, I used distilled vinegar concentrate, with you need to dilute 1:4 with water to get to an acid content of 5%.

But I've also used rice vinegar in the past. Any other vinegar should work, as well.

Blend until you get a consistency like crumbly ice cream with chunks! :D

The trick here is not to blend too much, or let it get too hot – otherwise, the result will be more like a cream cheese.

So put the blender on a rather slow speed, take breaks, or stir it in between.

Almost done! Shape it into a wheel, and try not to snack to much, because it's already so delicious at this stage!

Finally, I like to roll the cheese in roughly-ground black pepper, which adds an extra kick to it!

If you'd like a less intense version, you can use other herbs or spices – I've once used dill, and that was very tasty! Oregano could also be nice.

Put the cheese in plastic wrap, and chill it in the fridge for a few hours – it will firm up quite a bit.

Done! :) If you try it, let me know how you like it, and send pictures!

This is a style of cheese alternative that I first found in Spain. It doesn't try to imitate cheese made from animal milk, and instead does its own (delicious) thing.

You might've heard this concern about veganism: "I couldn't live without cheese!" 🧀

And indeed, the vegan cheese that's available in supermarkets is often… not great so far.

So I wanted to show you how to make a simple, quick & cheap cheese from cashews! It's tangy, savory, and has lots of protein!

Got my starting number for the Hamburg Marathon on Sunday!

So excited! 😆✨

Here's my report from last year: https://blinry.org/first-marathon/

Made it!! \o/ #hamburg #marathon

On my way to my first @revisionparty! \o/ I have a last-minute idea for an entry, and a long train ride ahead of me! :) #revision2024

@stffffn Oh right! However, @piko just warned me that I wouldn't be able to charge it anymore! :D

Not super happy about the choice of Torx screws, as I feel I won't always have one at hand. But at least the prodvide a screwdriver! :)
