Oh funny I love my upper thumb. Esc/` on one side and Del on the other. So not high traffic, but close when I need them.
FWIW, Lance buys the machines himself using his patron funds and doesn't let manufacturers into his process. Most don't even know they're being reviewed unless he has issues or specific questions he can't get the answers to elsewhere. He's frankly more qualified to test and compare such features than nearly anyone else, since he has thousands of hours of stick time with hundreds of machines at this point.
To get back to the bulk of your question, in many other industries where water heating is done, there's cheap thermoblocks and good thermoblocks.
Double boilers have been around long enough that improvements today are incremental at best. Heat Exchangers and Thermoblocks on the other hand seem to be improving by leaps and bounds still, and Thermoblocks in particular are getting a lot of development in other industries.
It looks like Ascaso is using decent blocks and is properly PID controlling them. Obviously it's not going to be as stable as say a full brass double boiler, but the results seem to outperform most heat exchangers.
Value is tricky though. You're right, it's a crowded market at that price. Personally at this moment, given this review at face value I'd still go with a Silvia Pro X today. But I expect in a few more years heat blocks might be able to match performance with dual boilers for cheaper and with less work.
Sure, but he is the product of a team owner's genitals, so really they just need to let him get back to playing in his sandbox with his million dollar toy.
Damn it. I know I would.
Ah but you see, in the first sentence I was only pretending to be dismissive of the joke, because my comment had a second sentence (gasp), where I expanded upon the original joke with another observation of a particularly failed CPU architecture.
It is funny because I used verbal misdirection and a relevant reference from inside the community. And now it gets objectively funnier in my second comment when you make me explain it.
4 years with my Iris V2. My only 2 complaints are that I didn't like the default layering layout in QMK and that I couldn't wait for V4.
Incredible keyboard.
I also highly recommend the Otemu Silent Sky switches I used in it, though sourcing them is a real pain. Tactile, buttery smooth, good resistance curves, and utterly silent.
2015 latest revision with DDR3. That's not living, that's palliative care.
In all seriousness, OpenPOWER and Power9 look cool, but they're still fighting to overcome the issues IBM and Motorola designed into the architecture. Fairly modern OpenPower9 example here https://www.raptorcs.com/
Highly doubt he can list 10 of anything, but I have further doubts he knows a single one of these commandments.
Thank you for teaching me about this very cool danger noodle friend today!
I feel like the author is being unnecessarily silly. The ancient ruined architecture could be PowerPC
That is weird. Thank you for bringing that distinction to my attention, I'd always assumed it was FOSS and just locked a few features behind a paywall on Google Play.
Looks like the mobile version is created by the same person who initially created Stellarium (and the current project coordinator for the FOSS version), but forked and taken closed source? Very confusing.
I was looking into this recently, but didn't have any first hand information.

Agreed. There's tons of amazing applications that are advancing astrophysics, mathematics, particle physics, pharmacology, oncology, etc etc etc.
It's a problem of application and efficiency. Both are getting better at a break neck pace.
Honestly it would be trivial for them to make the video controls server side too and simply not accept fast forward commands from the client during the ad.
We might be in a "Download and edit to watch ad-free" world with this change.
I mean, my wife and I didn't sell to the two highest bidders on our first house because the fuckers were obviously going to rent it out.
One was a bid entered by a piece of software often used by flippers and rental companies (had branding at the bottom of the pages etc) and the other was a cash in hand bid with an overt offer of more under the table, which is fairly illegal where we live.
We selected third place, someone who had messy handwriting, obviously has been written by two different people, and ended the bid with "777" which was cute and showed us not only were they human, they really wanted the place. And no wonder, with offers like the first two likely happening on nearly every sale in the area.
I can recommend Grandstream. They have a great UI, tons of features explained in plain English, and powerful Access Points for a fair price. Zero cloud features necessary. Also a US based company, if that matters to you.
But even cooler, the controller is built into the Access Point and is peer-to-peer if multiple APs are in use.
I switched a month ago from a full Unifi network and couldn't be happier. Do note that they need PoE injectors to power the APs, but unlike Ubiquiti's they don't ship with them.
Calling this dude a douche-canoe is too generous.
This man is an absolute douche-barge.
