  • I’ve found that pureeing the veggies (onion, tomato, chili) can help thicken the sauce. The slower solution is to cook down the dal more, though that may be undesirable if you don’t want them pasty. For chickpeas, smash a dozen or two and stir them into the masala.

    “Fruity” could mean you didn’t cook the tomatoes enough; the sweetness is tempered with umami with time. Cooking the tomatoes longer also releases the pectin, thickening the sauce. Too much of some of the sweeter spices like fennel, anise, cloves, or cardamom could be interpreted as fruity, though I’d say they’re more of a flowery sweetness.

    Also, add hing.


  • Man I just built a new rig last November and went with nvidia specifically to run some niche scientific computing software that only targets CUDA. It took a bit of effort to get it to play nice, but it at least runs pretty well. Unfortunately, now I’m trying to update to KDE6 and play games and boy howdy are there graphics glitches. I really wish HPC academics would ditch CUDA for GPU acceleration, and maybe ifort + mkl while they’re at it.


  • Didn’t realize this was happening and yay -Syu went brrr and it broke my shit. Probably doesn’t help that I’m running nvidia with linux (endeavouros). Wayland doesn’t work at all (black screen on login with only mouse ptr, wrong resolution), while Xorg is now much less smooth e.g. on the switching desktop animations. Moving windows around and in-window graphics are fine. Some graphical config stuff changed too; I’m still taking inventory.

    I’m also currently playing with nvidia vs nvidia-dkms with different kernels to see if that solves anything.
