How to navigate around AI written recipes online - Lemmy.World

Hey everyone, I have noticed that some recipes on the internet make no sense and have my suspicions that they may be AI slop. The ratios are off, the cook time is unlikely, the illustration is AI made… But it’s hard. And it will likely be getting harder to identify AI generated recipes in the future. It’s come to the point that I have a hard time trusting a recipe witten after the AI craze started (let’s call it 2025). I’m so suspicious of everything, my go-to “authenticity” check is to not bother with recipes that have recent publication dates. But this isn’t exactly fair nor fool proof. Do you have tips on how to spot an AI generated recipe?

Vaporeon Pokémon in crochet!

Vaporeon Pokémon in crochet! - Lemmy.World

[https://lemmy.world/pictrs/image/2c08f129-7d68-4ac8-8f35-2f8e1fb6e0d8.jpeg] This was made using the book “Pokemon Haken” by Sabrina Somers. There’s a rubber coated wire in the tail to allow for bending it any way you’d like. The eye and nose are felt pieces I painfully stitched on (pricked my finger 3 times). Hope my nephew likes it! We’re off to his birthday party.

Newest project done! - Lemmy.World

I actually made this for work if you can believe it. My boss paid for the pattern and yarn. It’s for some team building we are doing this week. Based on the paid pattern below: Finely the Border Collie [https://www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/finnly-the-border-collie]

Meet Lenny, the turtle - Lemmy.World

This pattern is from a book called “zoomigurumi 3”. I adjusted the shell pattern, switching colours between each round, to get this spiral effect. The book is really nice, well written. I’ve made a couple of other pattern from it and enjoyed each one! [https://lemmy.world/pictrs/image/d309dc5b-286f-4b7f-802e-c6df172ff5de.jpeg]

Will blocking save my blanket from the irregular tension?

Will blocking save my blanket from the irregular tension? - Lemmy.World

Hello crochet friends! I’m almost done making blanket, but as I lay it out to admire my work… Horror strikes! It looks like my tension became looser as time passed… I’ve never made a blanket before, and have read that blocking is a standard step to even out ones work. But… This looks really bad. The bottom right corner is 10cm longer than the top right. Will blocking save my work and allow me to shape it into a rectangle?

I’m currently designing a keep for my players to explore. It will be a ruined keep, taken over by an evil cult. But to start off the design, I am looking at how it would have been designed in its prime. Here are some rooms I’ve thought of when creating the layout. - Armory - Smithy - Fletcher - Training room - Great hall (mess hall) - Hall of Justice - Commander quarters - Guard bunks - Wizards quarters - Library - Kitchen - Larder - Servant quarters - Bathroom - Well room (clean water when under siege) - Temple/Church - Clergy quarters - Dungeon/Prison - Infirmary/Hospital wing - Lookout posts Can you think of some more?
