  • Generally I've found water heaters pretty low temp, like 70-80C. I like 90+, and would boost it in the microwave to a boil and then add a splash of cold.

    With aeropress or pour over and hand grinder it's easy to make a nice cup.

  • I don't even now how anyone keeps track of them and finds the ones they want. And how can you possibly do that quicker than just going to the page afresh.

    Part of working on a project for me is assembling links to important pages. It may be days, weeks or months later that I want to come back and there are the links. And of course, anything generically or regularly useful is just a bookmark as you say.

    It really seems like people keep tabs open just to keep a list of useful pages. There are much easier and more effective ways to do that.

  • No, it's a shell feature. Terminal emulators don't even know what shell are running typically, and I haven't heard of them adding shell features. That would require the terminal emulator knowing you're using bash, knowing how to interrogate history etc..

    From man bash:

      text
        
           yank-last-arg (M-., M-_)
                  Insert  the last argument to the previous command (the last word
                  of the previous history entry).  With a numeric argument, behave
                  exactly  like  yank-nth-arg.   Successive calls to yank-last-arg
                  move back through the history list, inserting the last word  (or
                  the  word  specified  by the argument to the first call) of each
                  line in turn.  Any numeric argument supplied to these successive
                  calls  determines  the direction to move through the history.  A
                  negative argument switches the  direction  through  the  history
                  (back or forward).  The history expansion facilities are used to
                  extract the last word, as if the "!$" history expansion had been
                  specified.
    
      
  • My entire Samsung appliance experience is one dishwasher but it was so shit that I was happy when it broke after 18 months and I will never buy another Samsung appliance. Didn't clean things and smelled like death if we didn't manually clean it once a week and run it empty on sanitize and never leave the door closed. Searching the internet told me it was widespread and people were considering class action lawsuits.

    It looked nice though. And was quiet.

  • it always entertains me when a vim aficionado regurgitates the "just missing a good editor" joke, given that one of the editors Emacs offers is a pretty comprehensive clone of vim.

    (personally, I never had any problem with the default editor when I migrated to it from vi, though I was using a keyboard that already had ctrl next to a.)

  • I really f'ing love Emacs, and... this is true. I'm still constantly learning, 3 decades in.

    But that's part of its appeal - it's a constantly evolving, you tweak and modify it for your needs, and you grow and change together.

  • While this sounds superior in most respects to the popcorn popper roasting I have done, I can't say it sounds a compelling step up for the expense. I periodically wonder about getting a roaster but I think it's going to take more benefits to finally tempt me.

    The popcorn is crude but simple and trouble free. I've convinced myself to actually appreciate a few minutes outside gently shaking it while looking at the trees. Perhaps I can fit variable control and get a temp probe and get a bit more sophisticated but retain the cheap simplicity.

  • Sorry it's not a very direct answer but this is one of the many things that make Emacs such a comfortable environment once you're used to it, which takes ... a while.

    There is a man command and then of course it's just more text displayed so you can search and narrow and highlight etc. in the same way you do with any other text. Plus of course there are a few trivial bonuses like links to other man pages being clickable.

    It's all text and Emacs is a text manipulation framework (that naturally includes some editors).

  • You don't execute C source files. They have to be compiled.

    First point as someone else commented, that driver is already present in any mainstream kernel. It's very unlikely you have any need to build it.

    But if you really want to build it the command will be make that will get instructions from Makefile on how to build the driver. But there will be other tools and libraries needed.

  • Same. I'm a little embarrassed that I have little idea what it's like. Last one I used daily was Windows 7. But then I wonder

    how convenient it all was and how was missing so many things

    What are these things I'm missing?

  • Seems very much personal taste, that spans a wide range these days.

    On suggestions from YouTube I tried 20+g coarse with low volume and temperature based on competition winning recipes and hated it. No body, thin and unsatisfying.

    So I'm back to 12-15g medium, inverted, add some 90-95C water and stir out the fizz, then up to 180g water or so. Heavy repeated agitation early on, after maybe 60s uninvert for a gentle plunge. Usually dilute a little with some cold, drink black.

    I checked the brew temp and full boil gives 96C in the press. I often do 200F 93C on the kettle for about 90 in the press. Sometimes I just boil and add a splash of cold.

    My beans are medium roast - city+, no oiliness. I like pretty trad rich coffee and hate thin acidic tea like brews. Tea makes better tea than coffee does IMO. But I also hate acrid flat bitterness of dark roasts.
