I’m shocked, shocked that outsourcing public sector contracts to the lowest bidder results in this scenario.

I mean, it would have been better if they had dropped their ties with the weapons companies.

I cant help but feel this is some sort of password reset question farming…

Anyway,

Me. I work in video games, and I have kids.

The whole Internet?

I used to have a bean to cup machine and this is basically the only way I could do it with a single hopper. I didn’t weigh it. I just used a scoop and got it down so I could eyeball the amount of beans per serving. It’s not too onerous. The thing to keep in mind is that most of these machines use a timer to dose the beans, so it’s not by weight. It also varies by beans, roast etc. Some beans will take longer to grinder than others. Finally I’d always aim to put slightly less beans in the hopper than the machines timer called for, to make sure there wouldn’t be any left for the next cup.

Oat milk is probably the best, imho. Although don’t dismiss soya milk, especially the barista versions. Personally I went cold turkey on milk in coffee years ago and never looked back. If it’s lacking something without milk, try different coffee! 20 years ago I was a 100% grande latte drinker, but now I’m a freshly ground double espresso every morning.

Duck Game has been reversed engineered, decompiled and uploaded to GitHub with improvements and bug fixes. So anyone can download this and build it. It’s all the other Adult Swim / WB games that are more of a worry.

Wait, this Sony?

Personally I wish they just made a bunch more Steamworld Digs. They could keep churning those out and I would lap them up.

Just be thankful I didn’t open up a can of bread rolls/buns/baps.

Aldi UK beans aren’t as good as they used to be. I think they changed about 6 months ago. That said, they are still decent and my beans of choice.

I’m just back from Sainsburys with the kids. I always use “the app” to pay for the shopping, but it crapped out today, no doubt due to the poor phone signal on the store (I’m not using their BT wifi), and I suspect the kids popped a two pack of chocolate croissants into the trolley bypassing my scannage. So it’s not even midday and we are already a family of pastry thieves.

And with worse safety, it would appear.

Ah interesting. I really appreciate the ionizer on my Fellow Opus, it does appear to help with the mess (because once it felt like it didn’t kick in and boy, was it messy). But I didn’t realise that point about the positioning in the workflow. Will need to try a drop of water too.

Scotland here. Does this come in black?

Bad bot. You’ve removed most of the meat of the article. TL:DR - Oversized components and cheap solder cause weak connections and make the drives prone to breaking. It also impacts 2GB and 3GB drives.

What? I mean, they were young when they did all the good stuff. Black Francis was 14 when he wrote Hear Comes Your Man. There is a Brixton Academy video from 1991 on YouTube and two or three 1989 shows too. Forget about the newer shows! I saw them live in 2004 and 2005 and they were still great, but those earlier shows are where it’s at.

Bad bot. You skipped the main part:

“At first it was called Ehfir,” Putin said. “And at one of my public speeches I was talking and said it was Sfera. I arrived at the Kremlin, and the former Roscosmos head greeted me and said, ‘Vladimirovich, you said it was project Sfera, Sfera you said. That’s what it is, project Sfera.’”
