I have two gaming PCs, a Nintendo Switch, PS5, and a Steam Deck. If gaming is not your thing, I am a coffee snob, so I can entertain you with my coffee brewing gear or we can dial in different roasts together.

If even coffee is not your thing, I am also a hobbyist woodworker, so maybe we can build something together.

If all else fails, you can play with my dog, relax in one of my 3 hammocks, mess with my cats, we can go ultralight backpacking, you can play the piano, we can make scented candles or soaps, or I can teach you programming. I also have lots of books!

Welcome to my ADHD life!

Exact same answer, except no hammocks, candles, soap or PS5 but I might have some weed.

[–] AnAverageSnoot@lemmy.ca 2 points 6 days ago

You gotta get hammocks. They are the best thinking, introspecting, and problem solving mediums.

Are you me?

Except I hate coffee. But am great at brewing/shots by smell. And my partner loves it, so I'm turning our espresso machine into a Gaggimate.

Damn! You are doing a Gaggiamate mod without liking coffee? Crazy

[–] fmstrat@lemmy.nowsci.com 3 points 6 days ago* (last edited 6 days ago) (1 children)

Yup! Was so happy when a FOSS Gagguino alternative popped up. Gotta finish building the printer and then on to that.

Whaaaaaat this is what keeps me addicted to Lemmy. This looks like a fun project.

Found a sweet HackaDay about it if anybody's interested :)

I would not recommend the Gaggiuno. It is now closed source. Instead, I would recommend the Gaggimate, which is open source.

[–] MonkeMischief@lemmy.today 1 points 6 days ago (1 children)

Oh wow thanks for the heads up!

It's always such a bummer to see open source codebases close off. :(

I'll definitely keep an eye on Gaggimate!

[–] fmstrat@lemmy.nowsci.com 2 points 5 days ago* (last edited 5 days ago)

Agreed, but it's also great that an option opened up. Gaggiuno was never FOSS, just source available, and basically built up a following before shutting source code availability down.

While Gaggimate isn't FOSS in the fullest sense, they do use a CC license (to stop commercial use) with no personal restrictions at https://github.com/jniebuhr/gaggimate

And, it's a lot cheaper to build.
