Philips. Oral-B felt terrible, more spinny than vibrate-ey. But I tried Oral B because I’ve had a couple Philips die a young death, though had others in the family last a decade so 🤷

I must have blocked a dozen fucking Moe communities so far 🙄

The Shatner one is totally fine (and very Shatner-ish), but Wheaton’s has more personal depth to it.

Of course I’m biased based on which series I grew up with.

Start with the Wil Wheaton episode.

Trying? You mean doing 👏

Yup that’s what I read. Need a particular browser according to their guide but that’s easy.

This all reminded me I should pull out my old phone first and make sure that’s logged into Google before I go wiping my primary. I do have backup login codes etc. but never hurts to be prepared.

So like, unlock, reboot, download something from Graphene’s site and just run it and reboot again?

If that’s true damn, we really live in the future.

Edit: ah no that is not the case.

I read what I could but was not convinced it’s enough of a defined issue to change up for me, especially with zero cardiovascular issues. Open to future changes if the science gets more refined.

Looks like a relatively closed issue https://www.theregister.com/software/2025/10/14/framework-flame-war-erupts-over-linux-controversy/1466815

It’s been a minute since I flashed a rom but I feel like I’m gonna need a cable and a laptop?

Good thought. Luckily all my critical folks are on Signal.

Will be a good excuse to get off my ass and switch to Graphene

I also like my moka pot but usually I want drip equivalent, takes longer to drink otherwise I have too much.

But I don’t want to.

I do enjoy the Espro I have, very tight seal and fine filter. But my daily driver is cheaper, I just don’t pour out the last bit and works fine.

Hope this trend continues. My Pixel has a solid 5 years left easily but after that this’d be great. Looking at Framework laptops as well.

I always thought he got black because he was a little bit dark side being Vader’s kid, just simple visual theme thing.

One of us (French press people).

I’m not a coffee fanatic, it’s just the simplest (read: laziest) way to make decent coffee without replacement filters.

That’s not true.

20 years ago had a daily list of comics to check, now I just load xkcd once or twice a year to catch up and that’s it.

Seconding the advice to just check local roasters.

If you’re looking for cheaper it’ll be challenging. Wegmans carries a couple whole bean decaf varieties (espresso and something medium roast). Trader Joe’s always seems to have whole bean French roast. And there’s some bulk ones on Amazon probably worth a shot - used to get SF Bay decaf there.
