What was the dumbest way you ever injured yourself?
  • Just a few hours after building my first 3D printer and running a test print, I stabbed my palm trying to trim some extraneous plastic from the model.

  • How difficult was it for you to abandon a social media website for a fediverse alternative?
  • Didn't care, just deleted. Only told my wife who would wonder why I stopped following her.

  • Public Betas are out, who's going in?
  • So far, so good. The UI changes will take a bit of getting used to. I haven't learned a quick way to change faces, assuming there is one.

    The new Snoopy face is outstanding.

    Love the Standby mode in iOS.

  • Apple Music or Spotify? what do you use and why?
  • Apple Music because it's part of my Apple One subscription. I'd use it over Spotify regardless.

    I only pay for one other music related subscription...SiriusXM

  • Public Betas are out, who's going in?
  • Been waiting for the iOS and watchOS PBs. I'm updating both now.

  • What are you addicted to?
  • Haribo Gummy Bears.

    And coffee.

    But not together.

  • My Haribo order arrived
  • It's probably not a lot different than the MK3s. Just some upgraded components but it looks like they're all in the same place. The extruder looks a bit more complicated.

  • What size my Bialetti Moka Express is? I'm in need of new gasket set but can't find 10 cup version anywhere.
  • Mine is a 3 cup version and has "X17" on the bottom so I don't know that 10 is the size. That base is definitely larger than mine. Fill it to just below the safety valve and measure that. Mine is right around 130ml

  • Why would anyone want to be a moderator?
  • I'm a glass-half-empty person. My views of a situation tend toward the negative so to me, the desire to be a mod stems from the enjoyment of saying "That's not allowed!"

    I know there are those who want to keep a community safe and assure the policies are enforced but if it means they get to swat someone's nose and say "No, bad member", all the better.

  • Lemmy.world thinks I'm logged out clicking link from Mastodon post

    Odd situation...

    I look at my fediverse sites using Safari. I have accounts on both universodon.com and lemmy.world. I'm logged in to both. I follow a community from lemmy.world and see posts from it in my Mastodon timeline when the community boosts the post.

    If I click on a link back to a post on lemmy.world from the post I see in my Mastodon timeline, Safari opens the link in a new tab but lemmy.world doesn't think I'm logged in.

    Here's the odd part...if I right-click the same link in the same post on Mastodon and say "Open in a new tab", Safari opens the link in a new tab but lemmy.world knows I'm logged in.

    Am I missing something? Aren't those actions supposed to be identical? Why would Lemmy not think I'm logged unless I manually open the link in a new tab? Is this a bug related the lemmy hack that happened a few days ago?

    What's your favorite type of salad?
  • A good antipasto salad, but with Italian meats like salami, prosciutto, or pepperoni, Kalamata olives, garbanzo beans, mozzarella cheese, lettuce (obviously), Roma tomatoes, oil and balsamic vinegar dressing.

  • Deleted
    What ordinary everyday thing do you really like?
  • A hot shower anytime.

  • My coffee station
  • The Opus is ok. I was really excited for it to come out since I wanted a grinder that could do pour over and espresso. I like the anti-static tech but the all-plastic build is a bit of a let down. It works well, is easy to dial in but I think my next grinder will be more metal.

    The Decent is fantastic! True the settings seem overwhelming but it comes with a ton of presets that all you need to do is load the portafilter, pick a preset and hit a button. I was making great shots on day 1 without a lot of fiddling around. Once you get the hang of the settings, it's fun to experiment with other presets or even make your own.

  • My coffee station

    A couple of Airscape canisters for beans, Aeropress rack, Fellow Stag kettle, Fellow Opus grinder, Decent DE1 espresso machine.
