Right, for a paper physics problem. Try telling someone to multiply their hand by -1.

Not exactly an espresso grinder, but I absolutely love my Baratza Virtuoso (not the plus). Couldn’t recommend it more highly.

No messing around, just a good looking, weighty, stainless appliance that does the job.

Can be had for cheap on ebay or similar. Tons of interchangeable parts and guides. Super easy to clean. Couldn’t ask for more. Well, maybe a single dose hopper just for fun.

The range is absolutely perfect for Aeropress/V60 up to cold brew. Maaaaaybe fine enough for espresso depending on your setup. Definitely worth the few extra bucks if you’re considering a Baratza Encore or similar.

The only thing I don’t like about this is the implication of a left hand rule for left hand threads, which makes my E&M physics brain sad

When you say you host it live on Codeberg, do you mean something akin to GitHub pages? I didn’t know that existed

Of course! I’ve loved mine. The community and integration with Gadgetbridge are both awesome. You’re in for a treat if you go this route.

On the watch front I opted for the Bangle.JS 2. The abstraction to everything being JavaScript can be annoying, but takes away some foot guns for tinkerers who don’t want to optimize lower level code.

Cool video and channel. Thanks for posting!

TLDW:

[It was a cool attempt that may have spurred mobile Linux devs in an important way. Removable battery + hardware switches for communication subsystems were genuinely innovative and in tune with community interests. Also it was bad. 8 year old CPU, software that was trying to do everything everywhere all at once, cameras that didn’t work then technically did. Pine64 still exists and the Pinephone Pro is a thing (that the presenter hadn’t tested).]

Presenter was generous when describing the end product. It seems to me like they want to like it but came to the same conclusion as most did – it’s definitely not a daily driver. That said, it doesn’t have to be to remain a cool product.

Do give them a watch though if you have a chance. This is from a <1k subscriber channel and was well put together.
