I am now set down to write you on a subject which fills me with inexpressible concern - and this concern is greatly aggravated and Increased, when I reflect upon the uneasiness I know it will give you - It has been determined the Strategic coffee Bean reserve has capacity for 7.56 pour-over coffees. Replenishment is 6 - 8 days away.

Somehow this took a lot longer to arrive...four of them in a grocery bag inside a beaten cardboard box... than the wall-mount. These will be scattered amongst the tools to increase the chances of finding one when needed.
Works great!

@bluesbaby that's what I'm saying. Caffeinated breakfast everything. Oats, grits, pancakes, eggs, scrapple.

@Brisse @LnzyHou usermanual.wiki was manuals for different Hexgears keyboards, could be useful?

Dream:
Accompanied a photographer pal to talk to (very old, but still alive) Bob Keeshan* about pal's compromising, Epstein-y photos of Gov. Abbott. Keeshan said a lot of unrepeatable words and said to be extremely careful whatever we did next. And walked away swearing more.

Anyway, how do brains work?

@MLClark LOVE ciclovia, every city should do this

@Airborne_Frog WATER how does it work

@Jorro Not sure I like Weitman but in this case I agree with the assessment and I believe him.

@Museek Yeah I get it. Using InDesign? I did a book layout in it and lost 200 years of my lifespan in the process.
There are so many options to save and export, likely can find one that doesn't mangle the text entry. Good luck!

@Museek Ugh, Adobe software. Is PDFA (archival) an option? Is Don't Use Adobe an option? Even MS Word can make pdf files and might make less of a hash.

(secretly I am not a fan of Adobe)

@BosmangBeratna Looks a whole bunch like Starship Troopers (the movie) so it's automatically good. ;-)

@Jorro
Yeah about the new conflicts...
From the Likud party to Russian Times: “Russia is supporting the enemies of Israel. Russia is supporting Nazi people who want to commit genocide on us and Russia will pay the price.
We’re gonna win this war. Afterwards, we’re not forgetting what you’re doing, we’re not forgetting, we will come, we will make sure Ukraine wins.
We will make sure that you pay the price for what you have done, you as Russia.”

@LiberalLibrarian mmmm methyl alcohol.

I have chalk. I have _ Hagoromo Fulltouch Chalk_. Good on that score.

@kel the scent's exactly what zapped my brain.

@KAutumnrain so nifty though.

On the pencil sharpener front:
New sharpener arrived, installed and boom pow got hit with <mumble> years' old memories of elementary school, being tasked to empty the shavings.
Know what I'm talking about?

@corlin @evistre great to know it's possible.
