  • incredibly inconvenient

    Imagine sitting in the corner near the plug with your weird resistive heater waiting for the water to get hot. You’d probably become the laughing stock of the whole campus pretty quickly

    Also, things get pretty heavy when you have a 4 hour daily railway commute. There has been times when I didn’t take a bottle of water because it hurt my back

    So I’ll just stick to carrying grounds and buying hot water. It costs practically nothing compared to my current habit of buying coffee which is a huge hole in my budget


  • It is pretty commonplace to sell hot water in my country?

    Because bringing a heater with you is hard, the places which sell tea will also fill up your cup with hot water. For a fair price usually +5TL (~0.1 cent) more compared to bottled water of the same amount.

    I can bring a heater and spend my university’s electricity for it but why would I so that when hot water is already very cheap.

    edit: I just remembered my school’s water dispensers have a hot water tap. Students drain those very quickly though so I gotta go there right after my lecture ends




  • Yeah they do sell hot water.

    Currently planning to pack a french press. We’ll see how it goes, but I still want the thermos.

    Since I use Hoffman’s french press technique the only thing I do is to dump coffee in water and wait anyways. So I might cut the filter from a french press and put it inside a thermos. I could then get it set up at home and just add water™









  • I am daily driving a Surface Pro 9

    Drivers are okay. I had some problems with screen freezing but these were fixed easily with some kernel params.

    With a full battery, I get 6 hours coding in C with VSCode and some browser tabs or 5 hours of YouTube playback. You’ll get about 8-9 hours if you are doing something like writing text

    Gnome is fantastic for this form factor. Especially libadwaita stuff, as their HIG plays very nice with touchscreens.

    A powerbank will give you practically infinite battery for a whole day. I love this machine so much…

  • Exactly what I’m talking about. It reminds me of the time microsoft introduced memory compression to compensate for every application bringing it’s own DLLs

    But I still think flatpak is superior to windows way of doing things because it actually has dependency management. I kinda like the idea of having multiple versions of the same library but I wish they did not come in big bundles (runtimes), but instead, came in small 1-2MB pieces.

    download random binaries from non-trusted distributors that contain a copy of every library that software needs to run

    This is overexaggeration. Flatpak, unlike places windows users get software from, is moderated, and flatpak (although chunky) has shared dependencies
