Sven Sauer - Deviation

The installation consists of 1,200 glass shards, each of which is aligned by hand. The train is moved centimeter by centimeter and each new glass shard is turned into the correct position so that the beam of light is directed to the next glass shard. As soon as the train starts moving, this creates a chain reaction of light...

have you ever tried making coffee with red wine instead of water? it's got a very powerful aroma and i was tasting it for weeks

threshergirltail

what. tell me more

flareonfloof

well, first of all the actual ethanol in the wine boils off at like 70C so you're using a low temperature (because obviously the goal is to make alcoholic coffee and you don't want to boil it away)

which means the coffee is HORRIBLY underextracted which normally makes your cup taste like the absolute worst decaf you've ever had

but, see, it's warm, and warm makes things smell more. so you've got this EXTREMELY powerful red wine smell, with pure ethanol vapor entering your nose, and some god-awful underextracted almost-coffee smell all mixing together

you bring that cup to your mouth and the smell is just. it's the first wall you have to get through

flareonfloof

actually the second wall. the first wall is realizing that this is probably a bad idea, but doing it anyway

I am fascinated by every word here

@shedog because i read about an old roman person who used to make their coffee with champagne and was talking to a friend like "that doesn't sound like the worst thing in the world, but i don't like white wine at all" so it goes "yeah that makes sense" and i continue with "but i do like red wine, we should try to make it this weekend" so i went over to its house and we went out and bought the cheapest (non-boxed) red wine we could find (i do have standards) and it tried to convince me not to but we did it anyway

angelsystems

fine. that makes sense. but now i gotta try it too

flareonfloof

a word of warning

if you push through the smell and manage to actually imbibe some of this curséd brew, there will be a voice

in the back of your head

saying

"oh huh this actually doesn't taste that bad"

and the voice is RIGHT, but only temporarily

you have two options, really. let it sit for a bit and really savor that surprisingly nice flavor before swallowing (MISTAKE) or understand that that voice will lead to naught but despair and choke it down before the tonic turns on you because it WILL oh my god it will.

that's not even considering the aftertaste

Hey, safety concern: what you're doing is kind of weird distilling maybe. Alcohol vapor is dangerous, but for one or two cups this probably isn't that bad, but, be aware that you're probably spilling alcohol vapor into your kitchen space and creating a potentially explosive fuel-air mixture

flareonfloof

oh yeah definitely. my friend and i are both like, scientists, so we knew the risks and didnt use too much wine and no open flames but this is absolutely worth mentioning, thank you

rederiswrites

Just watched Adam Conover (of Adam Ruins Everything) make such a solid point that I think we should spread far and wide. Yes, having AI write your emails is lazy, sure, but people love being lazy. We need to really emphasize that sending AI emails (or using AI responses on social media, or publishing AI flyers, or or or) is rude.

It's rude. You're making someone take their time to read something you couldn't bother to write. You're telling them they were so unimportant you couldn't be bothered to actually take the time to say something yourself. And frankly, you're lying about it while you're at it.

It's rude.

He was found -- he'd been transferred out of state in a very unusual way and through unusual means, and he's now separated from his support network.

UNPOPULAR OPINION: A lot of "mental health issues" disappear when bills are paid, rent is secure, and the fridge is full. Peace is expensive. And pretending money doesn't affect mental health is privilege.

moshroom

he had to jump in the ballpit to cool off after getting all airplane ears over a treat puzzle that proved a little too advanced

moshroom

he's done this a few times now. the ball pit actively soothes him when he gets mad over puzzles. i could learn something from this

tom nook is NOT a landlord!!! he is a construction worker! he SELLS you a WHOLE HOUSE! He is not CHARGING YOU however many bells a month to live there! You PURCHASE a HOME that he BUILDS FOR YOU and then you PAY HIM FOR HIS SERVICE. He charges no interest he sets no time limit it is a relationship built on trust. the only penalty you get for not paying off your home is that he won't build more home until you pay him for the first one. A guy that builds you a house wherever you want him to and then charges you for the cost of construction is not a landlord you own the fucking home
