I used to have a desktop espresso machine.
It made 4 shots at a time.
4 shots fit perfectly in one coffee cup.
For years, that was how I made my coffee.

“A 2017 study from the Journal of Food and Chemical Toxicology determined that up to 400 mg of caffeine per day was safe for most people. […] a single one-ounce shot of espresso contains 63 mg of caffeine. That means if you have much more than 6 shots, which total 378 mg”

I am waiting for a case (the Miguel Martinez case Greg references up thread may be one) that establishes people have a right to flee illegal stops BECAUSE they know qualified immunity means no recompense in court. Fleeing is the only way to protect yourself when police act above the law.
Nominally yes, but the Supreme Court has created this bastard doctrine called qualified immunity, which makes it nearly impossible to sue police for violating your rights until an appeals court in the jurisdiction finds that the right was "clearly established" to exist

Weirdo foreigner question out of curiosity: If it's 1st Amendment protected in one state (NC), is it not in all states?

I had a high school AP teacher tell me that no one would ever pay me to write about video games. So I got a job (in high school) writing about video games and went from there. Spite can be a great motivator!

Chatted with some @digitaleclipse.bsky.social devs this week. "Mike's office" came up without prompting.
I think @borman.bsky.social is going to need to make an official trip to DE at some point just to index the office and treat it as a partner museum. 😁

Spent an hour checking out Sektori tonight. As a twin stick fan and Geometry Wars lover, I think @gimblll.com might have designed this game just for me. Also, the soundtrack gives your subwoofer a nice workout. 😁

A reckoning is coming. The wheels of justice may turn slowly, but they do turn.
"He's gonna pay for those shots," Parente added re: Exum, noting the agent bragged about the shooting.
"They were not good shots. You will see, eventually, that that was a bad shoot, it was a violation of CBP's use of force policy, and he is going to pay for those shots" the attorney told press.
