I like longer form sailing channels that avoid the more obvious place or lack basic sailing skills and are frankly dangerous. I don't get to sail as much as I like so this is a good look and what I would rather be doing.

Maddison Boat Works their recent videos are of their epic tour of the Pacific Ocean, the road less travelled. Beautifully shot and narrated.

NBJS single-handed sailing in the North Sea, often in bad weather.

Alluring Arctic depending what time period you pick there is a wide range of mostly arctic sailing. They recently did the North West passage and are currently over wintering in Greenland.

Mosaic and Lynx on Sun workstations was how I started as well. Back then, there was a ton of open ftp access as well, wild.

Sway let's you float and overlap windows. Also for both tiled and floating windows you can set the size, position, workspace and monitor by the app id (e.g., firefox) or part of the title (e.g., lemmy).

Musk is definitely linked to Putin because there is no way Trump would share the spotlight for this long unless Putin was insisting on it.

However, I suspect all Putin has is the receipts for Musk helping to block the Ukrainian attack on the Russian fleet by turning off starlink, helping buy Twitter, shutting down investigations into Musks companies (via Trump), future promises of money and power by removing all sorts of worker and environmental protections.

He's gotten in so deep he can't get back out even if he wanted to.

Yeah it's wild. I am lucky this one delivered. I have another board that's at the three year mark and seems to be another year out based on current progress.

I've had three boards completely fail to deliver and one keycap set, all with the runner skipping town. It's the risk of the GB model.

Equinox XL. Europe buyers had to wait an extra eight to ten months over rest of world due to the European vendor not shipping promptly. The board even went on discount elsewhere before we even got ours lol

Musk is more of a Spy Kids villain. Trump is a Lazy Town villain as Spoticus is diametrically opposed to him even more than Robby Rotton. Putin is the perfect Bond villain, complete with his own evil mountain hideout.

Who do you think will beat both? Both of them going out before the semis ideally would really open up the last 16.

Pure coincidence that the English and German clubs are grouped together? Lol, it seems setup for a classico final.

Liverpool seems to have the hardest draw, PSG, then Villa, then likely Real.

Personally, I'm wishing for a redo of the 82 final, we've beat them once already this season.

He wants to be the hero, he will pick a suitable surrogate that reflects his values, may be kevin spacey?

Yeah it should be mandatory for the races with the vest

[–] tankplanker@lemmy.world 1 points 2 days ago

Do they still get the additional weight allowance if they don't take the vest? Seems dumb if they can

 

Even if this isn't really a 40, I'm posting it as it's my only new board this year so far.

 

Spoiler, its RDT

In case people do nto know what RDT is, which they really should if they have been into coffee for a little while as it makes a big difference:

RDT is Ross Droplet Technique, which is very much adding water to beans. Named after David Ross who came up with it back in 2005

 

The postman delivered a new to me DF83 Gen 1 with SSP HU burrs. Just had fun dialing it in over lunch for espresso. It is a huge step up from the Niche Zero it replaces for espresso.

 

Very interesting grinder for those that like to experiment with different burrs as it supports both conical and flat burrs. I think only the niche zero with a 3rd party kit did that so far?

Can't say it would replace multiple grinders with just one for me as it still takes too long to switch over but I could definitely see myself switching burrs when I change over bags once or twice a month.
