  • I have the same roaster and the same issue with most beans not audibly cracking. I could always hear the cracks when I was roasting with a popcorn maker. I think it has something to do with how slowly the SR540 roasts, at least at the default temperature settings. So now I go by time and eyeball it, then make notes on the coffee and adjust the next roast.


  • Pillars of Eternity. I really appreciate that they must have had some Anthropology majors on the team, especially for II, because the worlds feel much more exotic than other RPGs. It shows up just how generic Medieval Fantasy most RPGs are.
    The tropical Roparu (?) society with its caste system is particularly interesting. The interaction of the various factions is believable. And of course the pantheon is well though out.
    The downside is that they can be clumsy about exposition of the world - especially in the first one, you get these enormous lore-dumps.

    I’m savvy enough where I can adult Lego a PC together but struggle when it comes to software and troubleshooting and really don’t have the time for that stuff.

    Then Linux is not for you; it is nothing but troubleshooting.
    If you have to use Windows, get the LTSC IOT edition. It’s official and it has none of the crap people complain about in 11 (copilot, onedrive, recall, etc.). I’ve had no problems gaming on it, either.
