AeroPress has a coffee grinder now. It’s £199. I love my AeroPress, it’s a great *entry level* coffee maker. Does £199 sound entry level? Ever since Tiny bought AeroPress they’ve be steadily cranking up their prices. I’d love to see @jameshoffmann.bsky.social review this alongside his take

I got a second just for modding! I have an original 1000 model that I want to keep in original condition while I tinker with this 3000 model. Also they have a little more RAM and better modding options

I think I’m going to have to blog about this, mainly to keep a track of what I’ve done. Despite the plentiful mods you can do the documentation is extremely inconsistent and sporadic

I’m getting more and more into PSP modding. The console itself falls right into the spot of “just enough” for the types of retro games I enjoy. There’s also a pretty good modding community

Are you using Pi-hole? That’s what I have set up but it still needs more tinkering

It’s just great, simply great, that not only do we have our time wasted by AI imagery but also the additional time on all imagery thinking “is this AI?”

Bristolians! @webdevconf.com is coming and I'll join this year to discuss art and AI. Creativity cannot be computed, I think many find that obvious. We can all see how dull generated text and art can be. But why is that, what makes art special and what does it need that computers can't do?

why we are still relying on or expecting literally anything good to come out of silicon valley is honestly beyond me 25 entire years of some of the most astonishingly antagonistic, inhumane and criminal product and technology decisions in history, and yet it's the same men. the literal same

Have you ever wished I could help you with your CSS/design system problems but couldn't find the budget to hire me full-time? Well, I'm available for contract work starting in late August! Get in touch! mike@runtriangle.com

i feel like all the existing CSS we have is sort of a "one off" there doesn't seem to be a lot of reusable pieces in there. There are 14k lines of CSS 😱

Adam

I could talk all day about this (pros vs. cons in a start-up where you have no idea of where the design is going) but yeah, many pages are "one off" within their product areas.
