Short answer: no, they were owned by a Chinese company and then were recently spun off into an independent company. Here is the latest news on management.

What even is seasoning a grinder? My assumption is just that you're filling up micro pores in the metal with fines.

You could probably just grind about 10g of coffee beans almost as fine as possible. It shouldn't take much. If you don't want to waste it, use the results in a baking dish like chocolate chip cookies or brownies. It can add some richness to counteract the sugar.

A home grinder isn't going to be that fussy.

I also think that just beginning to use it normally is fine too. The only reason not to would be the idea that an unseasoned grinder somehow ruins the resulting first coffee, which is clearly not true. And seasoning with shit coffee is just gonna make your coffee taste a little bit shittier.

A few kinds of coffee processes remove the cherry by allowing it to ferment, which can create alcoholic/boozy flavors in coffee. I don't speak German but I did a bit of a deep dive on honey processes in Costa Rica and apparently "black diamond" honey process takes 22 days or more to ferment the cherries slowly (this roaster is probably sourcing from the same or a nearby farm). Also, having the warm water sit in the grounds probably accentuates the fermented/funky/wine-like smells. Next time you taste that coffee, try and see if there is any whiskey flavors or smells.

Side note: whiskey/fermented grain mash is a recognized coffee flavor note in the World Coffee Research Sensory Lexicon as well as smoky flavors you might expect in a bourbon.

It is also common to age coffee in bourbon barrels as others have mentioned.

What the fuck did you just fucking say about me, you little bitch? I'll have you know I graduated top of my class in the Navy Seals, and I've been involved in numerous secret raids on Al-Quaeda, and I have over 300 confirmed kills. I am trained in gorilla warfare and I'm the top sniper in the entire US armed forces. You are nothing to me but just another target. I will wipe you the fuck out with precision the likes of which has never been seen before on this Earth, mark my fucking words. You think you can get away with saying that shit to me over the Internet? Think again, fucker. As we speak I am contacting my secret network of spies across the USA and your IP is being traced right now so you better prepare for the storm, maggot. The storm that wipes out the pathetic little thing you call your life. You're fucking dead, kid. I can be anywhere, anytime, and I can kill you in over seven hundred ways, and that's just with my bare hands. Not only am I extensively trained in unarmed combat, but I have access to the entire arsenal of the United States Marine Corps and I will use it to its full extent to wipe your miserable ass off the face of the continent, you little shit. If only you could have known what unholy retribution your little "clever" comment was about to bring down upon you, maybe you would have held your fucking tongue. But you couldn't, you didn't, and now you're paying the price, you goddamn idiot. I will shit fury all over you and you will drown in it. You're fucking dead, kiddo.

There actually are, they just aren't built in functionality yet. Go to this github and scroll to the tools section. Notable ones for this purpose are lasim, lemmy_migrate, and lemmy_account_sync.

Also, you can see what instances lemmy.world blocks/federates by going to lemmy.world/instances . You can check if an instance blocks/federates lemmy.world by going to thatinstance.ml/instances

There are a few instances that try to avoid defederating except as a last resort. vlemmy.net was one but that went offline unceremoniously last week.

You can easily change that setting and it's one of the first most basic things I do with a new browser.

That's not a realistic worry for the world's most used browser platform. There are three Billion with a B Chrome users. 3,000,000,000

Even if 99% of users disabled telemetry they would still have a telemetry base of 30 million. And I would guess it's closer to 90% telemetry enabled right now since most people do not change browser defaults.

I was going to suggest Firefox, but TIL Apple doesn't allow non-safari-based browsers and all code must ship through the app store and that's why Firefox iOS doesn't have extension support like it has on Android. Wild.

Firefox has multi-account containers and chrome does not. That (mozilla-created) extension is their killer app for me.

YSK that giraffes fight each other by swinging their heads at each other, leveraging their huge necks to build momentum and obviously Girafusa does this either to enemies or the giraffe hairs to each other.

I hadn't thought of reddit in minutes. Minutes!
