These are not official state foods. They are what the source website has decided to appoint as the favorite food for each.
This is a list of official state foods:

except Norway and Iceland.
I mean, hardly seems fair to blame them for that. This is an EU initiative thing, and they’re not in the EU.
This is like me saying “lots of US states turned out to vote for Harris, but the Canadian provinces and territories have not been pulling their weight at all”.

I’ve never seen naptha (i.e. Zippo lighter fluid) do anything to any painted or finished surface, nor any of the plastics I’ve ever tired it on.
I’d guess that it’s probably bad news for natural rubber. IIRC, naphtha is similar to gasoline, and gasoline will mess natural rubber up.
That being said, I have a can of naphtha myself.

The two main solvents for rubber are turpentine and naphtha (petroleum). Because rubber does not dissolve easily, the material is finely divided by shredding prior to its immersion.
Sounds like it.
One other thing to keep in mind is that it is (obviously, given that that’s how lighters that use it work) quite flammable in vapor form and the fumes aren’t great to breathe, so this is something you’d want to use in a well-ventillated area.

Klean-Strip® VM&P Naphtha can be used in place of Paint Thinner for oil-based paint, varnish and enamel when a faster drying time is desired.
So I don’t think I’d want to casually get it on oil-based paint.
I’ve had good luck with Goo Gone.
It has an extremely strong citrus smell (which I don’t think is an additive for smell, as it’s overpowering).

No, according to them, orange extract is one of the solvents.

Yeah, just one word to refer to all the compatible Fediverse Reddit-alikes.
Sublinks will be in there too, if they get the ball rolling.
The reason many AI image generators do multiple images is as a simple way to trade compute cycles for quality. The idea is that you generate a couple and pick the best, using your human knowledge of what you intend.
You could generate it in one place, copy the URL of the best image, and embed it in your response. That’s what I did when I pasted the links to the skunk engraving images in my post; the images were generated elsewhere. I just pasted all four rather than only one, to show what the response looks like.
The syntax for an inline image on the Threadiverse’s Markdown variant is:
I assume that either that syntax or a similar one will work on Mastodon, but I don’t know Mastodon’s syntax, as I don’t use it.
I put this in the post body, but it was further in and I think that some people may not have read that far: this community, !YouShouldKnow@lemmy.world, says that it bans most bots, so I don’t think that that bot will operate here. I linked to a test post on another community, !test@sh.itjust.works, where I know it works, because I just tested it there, if someone just wants to give it a try.

On a Kagi Images search, there’s an option to “View Image”, which will let you view the image directly, and then manipulate it, including saving it.
On desktop Firefox, you can save any image used by a webpage. Click on the lock icon by the URL. Click “Connection secure”. Click “More information”. Go to the “Media” tab. All images on the current webpage will be listed and saveable.
It works on Google for me. Probably some search engines out there don’t use that syntax, though.
Tampermonkey uses them and works on Firefox. “Userscripts” is a term for little Javascripts that are run by Tampermonkey to modify webpages on specific domains.
Add -site:reddit.com to your search terms?
Doesn’t work if you have a ton of domains that you don’t want, but fine if it’s just one.
Kagi shows the top domains that Kagi users block from their search results.

I think that that’s a fairly-damning statement on Pinterest.

The brothers were shot and then left to the mob. Their naked, mutilated bodies were strung up on the nearby public gibbet, while the Orangist mob ate their roasted livers in a cannibalistic frenzy.
missing…shooters
What do you mean by this? Sometimes people are referring to shmups in using the term, but that’s on the list. You mean lightgun games? Rail shooters?
I agree that it’s definitely noticeable on many gamepads, but as to numbers…the difference is way higher than 1ms (not to mention the fact that retransmits and stuff make the latency variable on wireless).
I just linked, in another discussion, to a database someone built after measuring input latency on a bunch of devices.
The Amazon Luna there, which is one of the worse-performing gamepads…man. Even if you’re just taking average latency rather than worst-case, has average wireless latency about 18 milliseconds over the wired latency.
Last time I was playing FPSes much, I couldn’t tell you just from feel if there were 1 or 10 milliseconds of network delay (okay, not exactly the same thing as input device delay depending upon how the game does input prediction), but I could notice performance differences over a 10 millisecond difference, how well I played.
Mouse for…graphics
If you’re doing freehand drawing — which I rarely do, but obviously many graphic artists care a lot about — a stylus and tablet really beats the pants off a mouse. Try to sign your name with a mouse and a tablet in a graphics program, and it really drives home the difference.
That’s before one even gets to graphics programs being able to use tilt- and pressure-sensitive stylus inputs to affect brushstrokes.
I’m definitely more accurate with a mouse than a trackball.
However, there are some neat things that one can do with trackballs that one can’t do with mice. I’ve had a trackball of some sort around for a long time for those cases.
I can lie down on a bed or couch with a trackball, whereas a mouse requires a flat, horizontal, stable, hard surface to work with.
I can squeeze a trackball into a tiny space on a table, where a mouse wouldn’t fit.
Depending upon the type of trackball, some permit for flicking the ball and letting it spin freely in a direction with one’s fingers up. A lot of software these days, especially on touchscreen-oriented devices, permits “flinging” to scroll and letting virtual inertia let something scroll onscreen to simulate a similar effect, but such trackballs had hardware device-level support for such behavior that worked in any software and worked the same way everywhere.
Not really mice, but relative to trackpads, it used to be that trackpads with physical buttons were widely available. I vastly prefer those to trackpads with “virtual” buttons, but in 2025, there are very few laptop models that provide for physical buttons, especially with a Linux-friendly three physical buttons that don’t require chording to get a middle-click. Some Thinkpad models provide Synaptic trackpads that do this, but even those have become a minority of available Thinkpad models. Trackballs, on the other hand, have to provide physical buttons, and are a lot easier to find in 2025 with more than two physical buttons than trackpads.
Also relative to a trackpad, I’m more-accurate with a trackball.
I wouldn’t choose a trackball over a mouse for general use at a desk. And the very flat dimensions of a trackpad make it compelling for a lot of built-in laptop use — while a few laptops still are available with internal trackballs, the tight physical constraints force tiny trackballs. If I use a trackball with a laptop, I personally want an external one.
But there are definitely scenarios where a trackball works better for me than either a mouse or trackpad, enough for me to keep them around.
I saw someone made an International community but couldn’t find it on my instance, so I made a Lemmy.ml one
Your home instance will only receive posts to a community on a remote instance once at least one user on your home instance is subscribed to that remote instance’s community. If you’re the first one, you need to trigger a search for it, then subscribe, and then your home instance will start getting posts.
I’m going to go to Lemmyverse’s community list to search for it:
https://lemmyverse.net/communities
I would guess that it’s !international@lemmy.world.
It currently has no posts:
https://lemmy.world/c/international
Your home instance, lemmy.ml, doesn’t yet know about it. Here’s the link to your home instance’s view of it:
https://lemmy.ml/c/international@lemmy.world
The community international does not exist on this instance (yet). This can happen if you are the first person to try and open it in this instance. Someone will need to prompt this instance to fetch the community from the original instance. This task can be trigerred by entering the community URL (ex. lemmy.world/c/international) or identifier (ex. !international@lemmy.world) into the search page (reference).
You can do this by clicking on the button below, and then coming back after some time. Don’t worry about the “No results” message, the fetch process would have started in the background. Alternatively, you can copy one of the codes above and do the search manually at https://lemmy.ml/search. You can also just view the community on the foreign instance.
If you want it to, go to the above link I made to your home instance’s view of the thing, click “trigger a search”, and then subscribe to it, and if/when people post there, you’ll get posts.
It has posts.
I’m guessing that you’re probably viewing the community on your home instance, lemmy.one.
Instance A don’t normally get posts to a community on Instance B unless Instance A has at least one user on Instance A subscribed to the community on Instance B.
If that weren’t the case and someone started an instance, they’d promptly get flooded by all the traffic on the Threadiverse; this was something of an issue with running a Usenet server.
I believe that once someone subscribes, then subsequent posts will come over; I don’t believe that historical posts are sent. So you’ll probably need to wait for posts to come in.
You can view the community anonymously on lemmy.ca to get an feel for the content in the meantime: https://lemmy.ca/c/linuxphones
EDIT: Yeah, no posts on your particular instance at the moment: https://lemmy.one/c/linuxphones@lemmy.ca

According to this, Nevada only had 110k people statewide in 1940.
In 1940, New York City had 7.5 million.
