The 3P would be a little bit bigger due to the clicky switch and longer battery tube. (But, in practical terms, yeah it’s the same ballpark.)

Moka is not-quite-espresso. It’s percolation brewing under pressure, but the pressure is much lower than what is now considered to be espresso. (But very similar to the earliest espresso machines from the first part of the 20th century)

It’s metal filtered, so like espresso and French press, you’re getting plenty of oils and fines. The beverage concentration normally falls in between the two. Not as thick as espresso but thicker than most other preparation methods, when comparing normal recipes at least.

I assume OP was using an unmodified camera. The hot mirrors (IR blocking filters) built into modern cameras are extremely efficient, so it takes a lot of exposure to get an image past them.

I got mine recently and have been playing a little bit of a lot of different stuff, but the thing I’ve put the most hours into has been Midnight Suns. I did not expect a Marvel game to my new favorite turn-based tactics deckbuilder, lol.

The stupid open world collectible part blows chunks, but the actual core gameplay is shockingly fun, if not perfectly tuned the way some deckbuilders are. The extremely weird lightweight high school dating sim / bioware relationship management aspect is very odd but produces some extremely funny interactions at times.

I mean, I know the housing is pointy, my question is, is it really two pcbs at an angle under there, or is the “tent” in the housing just a decorative flourish, with a flat PCB and the “tent” provided by using their custom sculpt keycaps? I am inclined to assume the latter since they’ve said it’s going to be an “entry level” option.

The keycaps are not ideal for me because I prefer to be able to swap them out without being limited to first party options. (Although it is cool that they have linear a, for sure.)

I’ve used Kaleidoscope before on their Atreus, and it’s okay. Ideally at this point I’d prefer ZMK really as it has the best tap-hold configuration options but I don’t know what the odds are on them using a ZMK-friendly controller. (Probably low.)

Cross-posting is actually pretty easy on Lemmy! (Won’t work on specific comments, but it’s easy to cross-post the whole thread)

95ish IIRC

Lately mostly a very basic five-pour with Orea

I did see that and it looks cool, but is it actually a tented PCB, or is the tent part of the keycap sculpt?

I wish someone would make a nice tented unisplit like this with an actual ergo layout.

I’m not a grinder expert, but my understanding is that a lot depends on the specific burrs, but that flat burrs do have a higher ceiling for clarity.

However, some flat burr grinders are optimized for espresso (such as Eureka) and will give more body and less clarity.

100g might be on the high side for some single dosing grinders, although with an electric it’s not that hard to just grind twice. I think the filter/all-purpose grinders that folks are mostly looking at in this price class are the Ode Gen 2 and the DF64 (flat, and you might want to change the burrs) along with the Lagom Mini and the new MHW3 Bomber grinder (conical). And a bit over budget, I think the next widely regarded step up would be the Timemore Sculptor 078.

At the lower end of the range, the Fellow Opus and Baratza Encore ESP are supposed to be pretty good all-arounders if you need to do espresso and filter both, but if you don’t need to do espresso and can afford one of the nicer ones you’ll probably be happier with it?

First off, if the coffee tastes good, you don’t need to worry about hitting a certain time just to do it. But if you do want to:

I don’t have this kind of machine, but I know that most folks say that single baskets are inherently difficult to work with, and you should just a double instead. That’s not to say you shouldn’t use the single, but maybe look for some single-basket tutorials that might have specific advice?

In terms of slowing down your shots, other than grinding finer, you can also increase your dose within a given basket.

Also, if your GCP is stock, then it might be worth doing the overpressure valve mod. By default, those machines have a really high pump pressure, and replacing OPV spring with a 9 bar or lower one is a very common mod for the GCP.

I’m also not interested in hand cranking so the grinder must have a timer/automatic setting

Most new “enthusiast”/community fave grinders are single dosing, mean you weigh the beans out and grind them until they’re ground. Does that work for you or do you need a hopper-based timer setup?

Another factor to consider is whether you have a strong existing preference between conical and flat burrs, or for burrs that produce a particular style of coffee. (e.g., do you value “high clarity” or are you more concerned with body/texture)

Unsurprisingly given its extremely high profile as a purveyor of transphobic coverage, many mastodon instances have greeted them with a firm block. (If this confuses folks who don’t pay attention to this sort of thing, just picture in your head if it was fox news.)

It’s pretty widely known and has been an issue for a long time. It’s not terribly hard to google for.

Hence the existence of multiple platforms! And all is right with the world.

The question is, if there are instances that are full of transphobic content, and they’re reported, does firefish defederate them. If they do, the view will improve. Although, global feeds are never very useful.

They serve vastly different purposes. Lemmy would be a terrible place for people to chat about how their days are going, which is a key part of what microblogging platforms provide to be honest. And conversely, for structured conversations focused on specific topics, Lemmy has obvious advantages.

Beyond the basic structure, there are cultural issues with both that make them a bit tenuous for me.

The actual issue is, that as an instance admin who had previously been in the loop for some time with #fediblock and other channels in which admins share this kind of info, folks expected him to already have disqordia blocked.

Also, it seems from his posts elsewhere that he actually was aware and didn’t care. Ample reason to defederate from .art’s perspective. (Firefish.social has subsequently silenced but not blocked disqordia)

All of this is relatively routine, the screenshot fabrication thing more unusual.

I posted a medium-short summary elsewhere with a couple of links for folks looking for slightly more context.

I don’t think the eris or defederation things are Huge News in themselves, but if it’s true he doctored a screenshot to make the .art admin look bad, that’s not a good look for a lead deve/flagship instance admin.

.art is an influential leader in community safety/moderation standards in the fediverse; their standards for federation are moderately high, and probably higher than folks on many lemmy instances would likely agree with. But it feels like the firefish guy has possibly a pattern of not doing his homework about things in general?

Obviously the big question is, did he actually doctor screenshots and if so, WTF, man.
