I need to taste production test batches tomorrow, but if all goes well my next coffee from Ethiopia will be available as both a light and a dark roast.

Opens network monitor, briefly sees 12GB/s on the upload. Yeah, there's no way that's true. (WiFi, major US ISP)

Bought a webcam. My laptop is falling apart so I want to make sure I have something if I need to switch to a desktop machine for my next class, but I'm also getting a much higher quality (in every metric) feed than I was getting from the built in webcam.

Looked in the freezer, discovered I still had ice cream I thought I ate.

My sister wanted to go in for half of a birthday present for my mother so we picked that out today. During checkout I discovered that I had enough points on a credit card to cover the whole thing that way so it's sort of like I'm not paying anything and have another check to deposit.

@n8 This might be a horrible recommendation in general, but for something like that I'd probably just throw together a little QML project that describes what I want and then do a screen recording of that running.

A totally normal and sensible racing game.

The cat has declared it cuddles time.

Lately the cat has been trying to convince me to stay home from work. Today it was by rolling around and looking cute. Yesterday it was by hiding my phone (I thought to look under the cat and there it was). She has a very poor grasp of household economics.

The dripper did not come with any filters. I have some at home that will fit.

It's from a sponsor of my next online class. Everybody who signed up for that gets an electric gooseneck kettle (in white according to the shipping notice), a cupping spoon, a scale, a double wall glass dripper, and a glass server.

I just got a big box of stuff. It's got a bunch of fragile and glass stickers on it, so of course the box is smooshed, but shaking it a bit I think inside the box is well enough packed that everything should be fine.

@technomancy Plus the jump sound effect was just a recording of someone saying "jump"

@technomancy This reminds me of Spacestation Pheta.

The cat has moved one of my hair ties. Reached out, grabbed it, put it down in front of her face, and now she's just looking at it.

@apLundell@octodon.social The real question is why would you solve this?

Hail!
