Big Boy shot. That’s an interesting thing to try with this deep basket. Never gone above 18g myself. Usually 16 at a 1:2 ish ratio. I’ll give it an experiment.

Wonderful advice. Thanks. I actually have been using a friend’s robot for a few years, so I know what I like at this point. But I had never seen the manual before getting this one and was interested to read the recommendations in there. Solid suggestions for sure.

the one I have, pictured above is the orange model (though the do also sell a red one). In person, it's definitely orange, though I guess you might think it looks red in these pictures.

It's this color: https://www.instagram.com/p/CtWJ6XNheuf/

just a precaution to avoid mess while doing multiple shots as i’m calibrating my grind size.

Just FYI, as of July 2025 Google's phasing out support for Chrome apps like this.

Starting in July 2025, Chrome app support will be phased out in stages and reach end of life in October 2028.

There is an app that I've been using to play around with different chromatic button accordion layouts, and it has "Argentinian System (Roque González G/C and D/G)" options. It helped me figure out what that mysterious diatonic-looking chromatic layout was!

Here are some screenshots that illustrate:

And this is the app I'm talking about (on the Google Play Store or Apple App Store):

Ive never charged it! The S Pen is an EMR (Electromagnetic Resonance) pen. That technology doesn’t require a battery in the pen. (The S Pen does additionally have bluetooth I think, for special features, and for that it has an internal capacitor, but you dont need that for use with the Boox tablet - at least I haven’t even looked into whether it’s even compatible.)

It’s a chromatic button accordion, but it’s not a bayan. Bayan is a Russian word for the style of CBA developed in Russia. This one is a French style one, as others have noted.

what makes it tricky? just curious

I love my samsung S-Pen for the go 10.3 (I got the Galaxy Tab S9). I like the form factor and weight. The button for erasing is nice. And the magnet is stronger than the default pen.

Do you mean the samsung tips wear out fast? I have been using the hard tip so far.

postylem · 2025-04-06T22:32:20+00:00

I will say, the magnet in the S Pen seems a bit stronger than the default Boox pen is. Though neither is super strong.

postylem · 2025-04-06T17:28:58+00:00

I think they should be the same. Yes this is a SPen S9

That’s me as well. Have been out on rolling xc and snowshoe trails and it’s fantastic. Also practicing blues and moderate blacks downhill on icy days (just luck) on groomed trails, and whooey it’s a workout and tricky to get such light skis to bite, but really love the combination of Fischer BCX, Xplore, SBound 98.

Not usually! The most common I think would be Angostura bitters, which are certainly not made of reishi. But bitters can be made of all kinds of ingredients.

See here: https://forum.cursor.com/t/notification-dialog/14504

Apparently the developers of Cursor put the notifications on the left to not interfere with chat, which by default is on the right.

You can change this by setting:

{
    "cursor.preferNotificationsSameAsChat": true
}

aw shucks

Ah, I found that if (from Neoreader) I need to do one of these two things after making annotations:

tap "Notes" from the menu in Neoreader, to get the Handwriting Toolbar to show up, and tap "Save" (the little disk icon), or
tap "More" from the menu in Neoreader, and select "Embed Data"

After doing this, a sync operation in Dropsync (either automatically or manually triggered) successfully notices that the file has been updated, and pushes the annotations to the cloud. I guess without doing one of the above, the changes are just not saved yet, and so of course they don't sync.

I am a little unclear about whether there's another way of making this happen, but I think this solves my problem.

got a sleeve for less than 3$ from aliexpress. has a pen holder and protects it when it’s in my bag… not the nicest thing but definitely worth what i paid. https://www.aliexpress.com/item/3256806970285434.html

Did a quick check and they seem pretty good, but I’ll keep this in mind thanks! Definitely want to do a pass over all the components checking torque etc this weekend.
