It’s a cool idea, but has not worked well in practice. The plant referenced in the 2016 article you linked (Crescent Dunes) stopped operation in 2019 due to performance and cost issues. It appears to have restarted after the original owner filed for bankruptcy and sold the asset, but at a lower capacity.

I thought the original post was satire - list all of the privacy issues, then throw in “Privacy <3” at the end. Seriously, almost every one of those points has a potential privacy issue.
Guess I was being too generous.
It looks like it regularly goes on sale that cheap on Amazon, at least in my region:
I guess Freud was right
As others have said “Young Adult,” but they’re not significantly different from the rest of the series imo. Protagonist in most is a child versus adults as in the rest of the books and they lack the off-color jokes and occasional swearing of the main series. Stories in the YA novels are about the same level of complexity as the others, and the violence is about the same, too.
One reader’s opinion.
If you’re measuring the temperature in the room currently, you could try trending it yourself. Start the heater, and see how quickly the temperature rises (e.g., degrees per hour). Call this Rate 1.
Then turn off the heat and see how quickly the temperature drops. Call this Rate 2. For the formula below, make it a positive number.
Assuming the weather conditions are similar and the room temperature doesn’t change too much during data collection:
Rate of heat loss = Heater power * Rate 2 / (Rate 1 + Rate 2)
This number could be impacted by the weather: temperature, wind and insolation (affected by time of day, time of year, latitude, and cloud cover). It’s also impacted by room conditions (temperature, slade position, how many times the door is opened), so you’d need to do a few trials to get a sense for thr impact of different variables.
You’ve probably already thought of this, but your strategy is going to result in noticeable swings in temperature in the room, because ypure going to do a lot of heating at once when prices are cheap, then turn off the heating and let the room cool. Compare that to a thermostat that tries to maintain a constant temperature.
Sounds like a fun project - good luck! I’d love to hear updates here as you go.
Maybe they’re saying that using the second meaning in the original phase (“How do nonbinary people hurt each other? They/them”) doesn’t stand on its own as a coherent thought. As you pointed out, it’s a pun, but the pair of sentences only makes sense using the first meaning.
Compare that to the watch example: plugging in either meaning of “time” makes the sentence meaningful.
Perhaps serious joke researchers should distinguish between weak puns, the “they/them” example, and strong puns, the “time” example. Weak/strong here are used in the mathematic/scientific/philosophic sense, not passing judgement on aesthetic quality.
I’m not sure how much it matters to anyone else - might just be something that I do. I’d be interested to hear if anyone else adjusts grind based on weight of beans, though. Or maybe it’s more common just to always brew the same amount with a particular method?
Thanks for starting this. I almost exclusively brew light roasts via Chemex. I’ll vary my grind slightly depending on how many cups I’m making, but for my standard two cup (32g of beans) recipe: 20 on Encore for Chemex.
When making one cup I’ll use ~18, and for three cups I’ll use ~22.

I have not tried them, but the writing on the CxffeeBlack website makes me feel so old:
A limited release honey process joint from the homie “Big MAMO”. This mug is crazy. Don’t sleep 🔥🔥🔥
Something you may find is that your coffee will lose flavor over time - for example, we get 2lb/month from a local roaster (usually ~2 days off roast) and there is a noticeable (to me) decrease in flavor by the end of the month.
If that’s your experience as well, you can try buying smaller quantities, using a vacuum jar to store coffee, or freezing the bulk of the coffee and only taking out what you need for a shorter period (read up on best ways to freeze coffee first).
That’s what I get for browsing Lemmy before my first cup - you almost got me. The wave of self-righteous outrage I was about to unleash on you…
I bought mine refurbished from Barazata about 5 years ago, and have never had a problem. I brew 1-2 times per day.
Unfortunately, it doesn’t look like they sell refurbished equipment anymore.
The most intuitive analogy to federation to me is email. You may have an account with one provider (gmail.com in the example of email, or lemmy.world in the example of Lemmy) but you can send emails to other providers (email example) or post messages to other instances (Lemmy).
Just like with email providers, a Lemmy instance may decide not to allow communication with another instance - this is “defederation.” Instances that allow communication are “federated.”
Just like email, you don’t normally need to worry much about whether you are on the same instance as a particular community or user - it just works.
This is a simplification, but for me is a good working model.
Do any of them do single origin roasts? My local roastery does new single origin roasts every month, so we get variety with a single subscription.
Ditto. It shows up each month less than 3 days after roast.
I didn’t watch the entire video either, but early he talks about HSAs in the context of which types of FSA is available for people on high- deductible plans with an HSA.
I think that’s fine for primary. I might rack off of secondary every month or so. Maybe less often after the first time. It’s probably overkill, but I’d hate to ruin another batch.
FYI, I think you mean “wary,” but this is one of those happy accidents where the wrong word also works in its own way.
