I’ve had a gagguino modded coffee machine for a while now. I thought I had built a machine to automate coffee making but no, I built a machine to measure and control the statistics of coffee making. It’s an oddly unique experience immersing yourself in a community of data driven connoisseurs.

A thought pattern I experience frequently: - Cut avocado in half - Take the pitless half to eat - Notice the half with the pit in is bigger an heavier - Feel a sense of toxic envy towards my future self who will have the bigger half and consider stealing it The inner dramas.

This week I have been working on a project which has involved me learning how to crimp spade connectors. Honestly, crimping connectors is what’s been missing from my whole life - the mixture of art, science, craftsmanship and instant objective validation of success. I need to do more crimping.

I'd love to understand the principals in play behind the fact that new clothes are significantly more likely to be accidentally stained than old ones. Once I've worn the same thing 5 times it's generally in the clear. Do I just not respect new members of my wardrobe until they earn it?

Any conversation about dead internet theory that doesn’t mention kagi.com is really doing a disservice to all involved. I’ve known about it for years but post AI apocalypse of blogs it has become one of the only ways to get anything resembling a proper internet experience. Highly worth it.

It's really hard to integrate with any kind of community on here when almost every post I want to interact with won't let me because the author doesn't follow me. It kind of feels like the model is "if we weren't familiar in the old platform you missed the boat". Just kind of makes for a dead vibe.

Watching Stath Lets Flats for the first time. Is this the most underrated British comedy of the last decade? It’s bloody hilarious and rich with characters. Granted the premise is “what if an 8 year old was a grown man” but it’s so silly and good hearted and full of quotable lines. Needs more love!

What a fab evening. I cannot recommend The Spooky Men’s Chorale enough! The average age in the room was a good 20 years above me but I think anyone of any age would love. High art silliness is my favourite thing in the world and they are that in spades. So tight! youtu.be/7RbbSwbL7ag?...

Proving you are an adult should not require you to compromise privacy. Why isn’t the system you prove you’re an adult and you get a token, you then put that token into a pile with loads of people and everyone who put a token into gets one out. I feel there should be a big push for this.
