Finally ordered a NerdSEQ. I've been waiting to do that until the video expander became available so I can hook it up to an old otherwise unused TV and a computer keyboard.

The cat continues to not appreciate the explosions outside.

I let random voltages make a song. It goes nowhere slowly, but you can listen to it if you want.

The cat does not appreciate all the explosions happening outside.

The cat would like it known that she's a cute cat who should be cuddled at every opportunity, preferably for 36 out of every 48 hours.

@shahaan@eldritch.cafe Good luck, the last time I needed to do that the place sent me the GPU fan instead multiple times before getting me the right part.

New Kenyan coffee is good. Citric with softer fruit notes as the coffee cools, lots of acidity. I went with a pretty light roast both to accentuate those characteristics and because roasting it to what I'd normally consider the lighter end of a medium roast already tastes like a dark roast and while not objectionable, not especially notable either. I'll be sampling that in front of the shop from 12-2 today and will try to get it up for sale on the web site after that. (available in store now)

Above toot composed by the cat.

Got approved for another grant.

Small order, only about 800 pounds of coffee. If I'm lucky it could show up Friday.

Ordered more coffee. One has a name longer than this toot.

Added another part of the feature I'm working on for the shop's web site. Nothing is user visible yet but I'm cleaning things up as I go along with the result that the whole code base is now 3.7% smaller despite the additions. I expect I'll have eaten up a lot of those savings by the time I'm done with the whole feature.

A little while back someone beat my record for biggest single target hit with Qiqi in #GenshinImpact but it took a couple months for someone to get around to doing that. I may need to take that record back, though I'm still pretty happy with the old run (as technically awful as it is).

The cat seems to have taken a liking to pressing her face against video game controllers. Sometimes using them like a pillow, sometimes flicking the thumb sticks.

@technomancy That's the first Final Fantasy game that I started playing but didn't finish. Managed to save after glitching the game to a state where further progress is impossible near the end and by that point my impression was that Square forgot that they were trying to make a game and I just couldn't see starting over.

@sean Fortunately, Lucas stopped after doing 3 Star Wars movies and never touched it again.
