Found this Taiwanese #alishan coffee way too tart when brewed via pourover. Workaround was to make cold-brew concentrate with it and top with cold milk instead, which made it almost delicious

First roll of #film in some time.

Turns out that if you ever pull out the rubber grommet around your car’s cable bundle, the way to reinsert it is to ease out the clips on the hard plastic bit and put the grommet on that before clipping it back in #TIL #carmaintenance

What is this crazy thing I’ve found? CARROT, the weather app, has a soundtrack?

I now cross-post out from #micro.blog. Because it is amazing. If you’re using an aggregator and are subscribed everywhere I am in the #fediverse, I’m sorry you’ve 4 copies of every post. Including this one.

Just found out that MaximumPC, a magazine I’ve followed since the 2000’s, has finally closed. They wrote good articles, didn’t have trashy advertisers and always added a hint of humor. It was as much of my computing journey as my college degree was. I’m going to miss it very much.

I was about to go down the rabbit hole of setting up yet another blog. But thankfully, I somehow ended up finding micro.blog, so here I am. Ideally, I just want to post my musings, in the form of short bits of text and my photos, and have that cross-posted out to the rest of the Fediverse.
