I assume OP was using an unmodified camera. The hot mirrors (IR blocking filters) built into modern cameras are extremely efficient, so it takes a lot of exposure to get an image past them.

I got mine recently and have been playing a little bit of a lot of different stuff, but the thing I’ve put the most hours into has been Midnight Suns. I did not expect a Marvel game to my new favorite turn-based tactics deckbuilder, lol.
The stupid open world collectible part blows chunks, but the actual core gameplay is shockingly fun, if not perfectly tuned the way some deckbuilders are. The extremely weird lightweight high school dating sim / bioware relationship management aspect is very odd but produces some extremely funny interactions at times.
Hello Guys 1st Issue I have a GCP with a Eureka Mignon Crono which has a 50mm burrs. The coffee tastes good, but I never reached 25-30 seconds of extraction, the closest is 18 seconds....
First off, if the coffee tastes good, you don’t need to worry about hitting a certain time just to do it. But if you do want to:
I don’t have this kind of machine, but I know that most folks say that single baskets are inherently difficult to work with, and you should just a double instead. That’s not to say you shouldn’t use the single, but maybe look for some single-basket tutorials that might have specific advice?
In terms of slowing down your shots, other than grinding finer, you can also increase your dose within a given basket.
Also, if your GCP is stock, then it might be worth doing the overpressure valve mod. By default, those machines have a really high pump pressure, and replacing OPV spring with a 9 bar or lower one is a very common mod for the GCP.
Hey all, I’m in the market for a new burr grinder. I’ve read good things about the Baratza Virtuoso+ and have a friend who enjoys their Virtuoso but says it’s gotten less consistent over the years even with a burr replacement. It’s right in the middle of my desired price range however....
I’m also not interested in hand cranking so the grinder must have a timer/automatic setting
Most new “enthusiast”/community fave grinders are single dosing, mean you weigh the beans out and grind them until they’re ground. Does that work for you or do you need a hopper-based timer setup?
Another factor to consider is whether you have a strong existing preference between conical and flat burrs, or for burrs that produce a particular style of coffee. (e.g., do you value “high clarity” or are you more concerned with body/texture)
Unsurprisingly given its extremely high profile as a purveyor of transphobic coverage, many mastodon instances have greeted them with a firm block. (If this confuses folks who don’t pay attention to this sort of thing, just picture in your head if it was fox news.)
The question is, if there are instances that are full of transphobic content, and they’re reported, does firefish defederate them. If they do, the view will improve. Although, global feeds are never very useful.
Since I’ve been on Lemmy, I don’t know what my use is for Mastodon anymore. It’s dead on there anyway. I don’t have anyone to talk to and nobody responds to my posts.
They serve vastly different purposes. Lemmy would be a terrible place for people to chat about how their days are going, which is a key part of what microblogging platforms provide to be honest. And conversely, for structured conversations focused on specific topics, Lemmy has obvious advantages.
Beyond the basic structure, there are cultural issues with both that make them a bit tenuous for me.
It’s a “night vision” mode in a ruggedized mil-spec phone, so I assume it’s supposed to be tactical or some garbage. But if it worked in daylight it would be a legit feature for me. (I have no idea if that’s the case.)...
mastodon.art has decided to suspend firefish.social from their instance due to issues with its administrator.

The iceshrimp fork actually came before the thing with .art broke and seemingly had to do with issues internal to the calckey development community. It’s hard to say for sure what the situation was because most of the stuff on both sides was pretty vaguely stated.
I posted a medium-short summary elsewhere with a couple of links for folks looking for slightly more context.
I don’t think the eris or defederation things are Huge News in themselves, but if it’s true he doctored a screenshot to make the .art admin look bad, that’s not a good look for a lead deve/flagship instance admin.
.art is an influential leader in community safety/moderation standards in the fediverse; their standards for federation are moderately high, and probably higher than folks on many lemmy instances would likely agree with. But it feels like the firefish guy has possibly a pattern of not doing his homework about things in general?
Obviously the big question is, did he actually doctor screenshots and if so, WTF, man.
The actual issue is, that as an instance admin who had previously been in the loop for some time with #fediblock and other channels in which admins share this kind of info, folks expected him to already have disqordia blocked.
Also, it seems from his posts elsewhere that he actually was aware and didn’t care. Ample reason to defederate from .art’s perspective. (Firefish.social has subsequently silenced but not blocked disqordia)
All of this is relatively routine, the screenshot fabrication thing more unusual.
So, the complicated bit about the fediverse is that there’s not one “the space”, there’s thousands of different spaces from which bad actors would need to be ejected. And, of course, not everyone will agree on who constitutes a bad actor, in fact there’s a huge range of different standards applied.
This leads to a situation where you just find out one day that some of your fediverse neighbors/acquaintances are hanging out with the nazi you blocked years ago. The nazi was out of sight out of mind to you because you had already blocked them, but if they’re low-key and mostly post normal stuff, it’s easy for your more casual neighbors not to notice. Not saying the parties involved here are nazis per se, just as a for instance.
The community uses the #fediblock hashtag to raise awareness of bad actors, primarily for the benefit of instance admins so they can update their block lists. There is a communal expectation that admins would be conversant with this.
There are also tools like these to aggregate that information, but currently it’s hard to get much out of them in terms of complete and human-readable context. (They’re primarily designed as tools to support instance admins rather than individual users.)
This whole thing is constantly happening on the fediverse and that part of the story would be completely unremarkable if the firefish dev wasn’t running a flagship instance and developing software.
If, as an instance admin (who we know was even in the discord channel where the admins are discussing this stuff) wasn’t keeping up with fediblock, that’s a red flag for the instance. The fact that he was also (even accidentally) associating with far-right software dev people to host his code is also a red flag, because, why wouldn’t you do some due diligence about that? (This should be a familiar issue to developers in this space, because, alas, there are a lot of nazi/nazi-adjacent people developing software that uses activitypub!)
Anyway, all of that doesn’t necessarily make the firefish dev a bad guy, it just makes him look kind of like inspector fucking clouseau, you know?
If it’s true that he’s also doctoring screenshots to make another instance admin (who is a recognized leader in fediverse community moderation standards) look bad, then that elevates the issue A LOT, especially for someone who is trying to get a lot of folks to adopt his software.
I am a complete noob at coffee making. Which device should I get? I keep reading about stuff like French Press, Aeropress, etc but idk which is good and easy to use for a beginner. If it helps, until now I have only drunk instant coffee (with either milk or sugar or both). Thanks in advance!...
Moka is not-quite-espresso. It’s percolation brewing under pressure, but the pressure is much lower than what is now considered to be espresso. (But very similar to the earliest espresso machines from the first part of the 20th century)
It’s metal filtered, so like espresso and French press, you’re getting plenty of oils and fines. The beverage concentration normally falls in between the two. Not as thick as espresso but thicker than most other preparation methods, when comparing normal recipes at least.
So I bought myself a Victorinox Tinker Deluxe SAK, after my friend told me he’s been using his SAK for the last 15 years. I’m into small tinkering work, urban partisan activity and like to be prepared....
