Most forgiving brewing method?
  • If I were to provide a suggestion, I would start with fresh grinding your coffee from beans. You can get a pretty cheap manual grinder for like $20-30. I don't remember the name of mine (it's generic) but it was like $30 on Amazon and is great when I travel.

    Next time you're in a coffee shop, grab their cheapest blend. Coffee shops, in my experience, have fresher beans than the grocery store, especially if they roast their own coffee.

    It doesn't have to be the $26 organic single origin, just something that's been roasted more recently than 6 months ago. Maybe you'll be able to convince your S/O to get some better coffee in the future.

  • Most forgiving brewing method?
  • Honestly, your ingredients are going to far surpass any brewing method. I've brewed cheap coffee in my Chemex that didn't taste very good and quality coffee in a hotel in-room Coffee machine that tasted amazing.

    Good Beans + Good Water gets you like 70% of the way to good coffee.

  • Im still undecided about if it looks fun though
  • I think you're a great parent who interrogates the media that your child is consuming!

    The aesthetic of Palworld feeds that cynicism; it's charming and colorful and awfully brutal. Parents should be aware of the game's content and the game should probably get a Teen rating (at least in the US; not sure how PEGI does their rating).

  • Im still undecided about if it looks fun though
  • Yeah because taking your pets to an arena-style fight to "fainting" is also a great model for the kids lmao

    Pokémon's dog fighting aside, Palworld has a certain cynicism that imo takes it out of the realm of a kids game. The game allows you to capture humans and then has a little blurb about how it's "inhumane" to do so. There's a niche for an "adult" monster capture game that Palworld is filling. I'm curious about how the game will continue to develop in early access. They have a lot of funding & hype, let's see if they can see it through to a full release (or wallow in development like so many other Early Access survival games).

  • Schools are using surveillance tech to catch students vaping, snaring some with harsh punishments
  • To bring that forward a generation, there was a period around 2013-2014 when vaping was brand new and schools hadn't written any rules yet.

    I remember kids vaping in class and some teachers being kinda okay with it, or at least turning a blind eye. Granted, only like 1 or 2 people in the school had vapes.

  • EA opens up more patents for increasing Accessibility in gaming
  • ...leaving the idea unclaimed for someone else to patent instead? Strange take.

    The patent system is far from perfect, but patents themselves are necessary. EA had an idea, they had the right to patent it. They had the right to keep the patent closed, instead they opted to open it.
