No, I'm not, and please read again, I was very specific. If you can't install linux in 2017, you can't really consider yourself technically able. I said nothing about getting every piece of hardware going. I said nothing about tuning anything, I said nothing about resolving issues or fixing things yourself. If, between the big distros (and particularly ubuntu) you can't even get it installed in 2017, when linux in va…

I'll skip linux part because it goes nowhere without considering that specific case with someone on HN who failed. But doesn't your last sentence involve circular logic?

Well, I invite you to watch out for the linux comments next time such a topic comes up.

As written, my last sentence is indeed circular, and poorly phrased, yes :)

I was trying to say that this topic shows the skill useful, if not essential. What I said was that my opinion is clearly my opinion!

It's supported and it appears in your HN profile once you have a certain karma. The field is called "topcolor".

No, no shorthand values or semantic values are currently permitted. Only six digit hex codes are accepted.

That's a very good point! I can't say I've ever roasted my own coffee, so it's something I've not experienced in person. I hear you can buy green beans and roast them with a popcorn machine though, which sounds kinda fun to try.

It is very fun, and way tastier: https://www.sweetmarias.com/category/green-coffee/others/sam... http://legacy.sweetmarias.com/airpop/airpopmethod.php

The above describes creating a bread-machine "Coretto" roaster. (I still have no idea why it's named that). A heat gun (for paint drying) from Harbor Freight (~$15, it's almost always on sale) is used for the heat. The bread machine is torn apart so it permanently spins, and never turns on the heating element.

After using it manually a bit you'll get the bug too. Eventually you'll want to control it electronically. I still have to actually do it...

That's really cool, thanks for those links. You've given me something to look into for the next side project!
