starting to grind/brew coffee from beans and drinking it black is such a weird experience after years of just putting creamer in K cup coffee and hoping for the best. like coffee without anything is actually supposed to taste not terrible?? and it doesn't need super expensive equipment??

unfortunately the DS Lite reshell did not go well. 🫤 The display ribbon cables can easily get damaged and while I was careful they broke when attempting to put the case together. Have a backup unit to try the shell on later but that may be a while from now since it's a bit time intensive to do

Been getting into the hobby of re-shelling my old handhelds. I didn't take the best care of them as a kid from years of constant use so it's nice to have them in better shape than they were. #retrogaming #gba #psp

first attempt at making the NYT's cranberry curd tart. There's a bit less filling since I didn't realize the difference between a tart pan and a pie pan lol. Either way, should taste good 😋 #baking

Replaying A Link to the Past since I never finished it when I was younger. Breezed through the first half, but then the Ice Palace block puzzle puts any hope of getting through any more temples tonight on hold.

Got some pins for my work backpack. Tend to be a bit biased towards puzzle games so it got the most representation lol

First attempt at making ginger- molasses cookies #baking

Fun fact: the C in CPU actually stands for Central, as in Central Processing Unit. There's also the GPU, the MPU and the PPU. Those are the Greenwich Processing Unit, Mountain Processing Unit and Pacific Processing Unit.

the “C” in “CPU” stands for the C Programming Language. CPUs are called that because they are a hardware implementation of the C Abstract Machine as specified by ISO/IEC JTC 1/SC 22/WG 14.

Need to get into the habit of reading library books before I have to return them. Will get really into a book the first day I get it then forget about it until like a week before they are due 😅

Traveled to Death Valley this week and the geography was stunning #travel #Pixel8

Started playing the #DragonQuest 3 remake on Steam Deck and it strangely feels easier than the GBC version. Not sure if it's just the lack of screen crunch - navigating dungeons when you can look ahead a bit makes the challenge with the high encounter rate a lot more manageable.

Been slowly getting my 3x3 #cubing solve time down today. My best time today was 1:07 although it was definitely luck since the cube basically was solved by the time I got to the third layer.

Hi all! Am relatively new here although have been lurking for a while debating whether to switch from Twitter. I'm a programmer who likes to cook/bake, play video games occasionally, and recently got into cube solving so my posts may be a grab-bag in terms of topics. 😅
