Fellow Microserver haver, here! Mine did get a Xeon and RAM boost and has been my everything server for years now.

For QMK, my go-to hrm-embetterment came from Achordion. Not sure if that helps OP, but it made hrm amazing for me, and it does the sort of timing tweaks that might help here.

Otherwise, the HOLD_ON_OTHER_KEY_PRESS mode might help.

Same here, so unless something is fully open source, self hostable and preferably federating, I'm not picking it up.

Before opening up or resoldering any switches, I'd short the two pins with something (tweasers or similar) to confirm or rule out the switch itself as the cause.

From the look of things, yeah, the OXO device looks similar enough to a Gabi, just a different filter type and a different (bigger) size. If there's a disadvantage to the Gabi, it's that: it's rather small, so unless you're doing single cups, you'll have to pour in a couple of rounds, making sure your bed doesn't dry out in the meantime, etc. It won't be a problem if you do single cups, so I suppose that's what it's primarily aimed at. Oh, and the type of filters differ, of course, so if you have a strong preference there, that might dictate the dripper/drip-assist you can use.

Either way, yes, the OXO looks to be the same kind of thing, good to hear it works well, too!

Hario could be more popular because Hario, not sure though. I'll ask said coworker if he has experience with other devices (pretty sure he dailies a V60).

As for faffery levels: yes, if that is your cup of tea (ha), that slightly changes things of course. ;)

but I don't really see much difference from manually pooring.

Main difference is ease of use, you don't need to use a gooseneck to circle around, another time, wait a bit, make a pentagram, invoke some eldritch coffee god, pour the rest. You just fill the top resorvoir and wait for it to drip through. Refill until you've hit your water volume.

Basically going the immersion route makes your water touch the coffee longer.

It's not immersion route, afaict, not more so than a regular pour-over. Unless I'm misunderstanding you (or the processes).

It might give you a slight improvement in comfort, but at what cost.

Roughly 30-40 euros, I believe. ;)

Someone at the office brought a Gabi Dripper (or whatever the proper name is). Basically a Kalita Wave compatible filter holder, with a shower thingy on top that you just dump water into.

I love that thing. It makes it stupid simple to brew good coffee, without faffing about, and if you want to take the time or experiment, you can still take the top off and do a manual pour.

The way I see it: it's an addition. I've seen posts about "does this defeat the purpose", and I consider that silly gate keeping. The purpose is good coffee, yeah?

They don't, officially, as far as I know it's always been an "at your own risk, might get your account banned" endeavor.

No, problem not solved, problem half-heartedly worked around. People dislike Discord for several reasons, bridging it to whatever different platform will at best be a bandaid.

My takeaway wasn't that he didn't like it, he did. Just not worth the absurd price unless you want to literally pay for the privilege.

That looks great! How do you like the melodics?

Ik heb mensen horen verkondigen dat dat is omdat imessage- of facetime-gesprekken (geen idee welke precies, ik heb geen Apple-toestel) niet werken met het ding aan je oor. Of dat klopt, weet ik niet. Dat ik iedere keer als ik zo iemand zie, van binnen iets verder doodga, weet ik wel. Geen gezicht, en vaak nog het geblaat over de speaker ook.

It absolutely is. Yet, as Sean said, it's also yet another bit of software to run and maintain, and ES is known to be a bit of an effort to keep going well.

Admins having only finite amounts of time and/or resources, might make the very understandable decision to leave it out.

Gut, ja, het is stroom, het werkt, prijzen zijn prima, dus ja, wel tevreden.

Ik heb wel een code voor je.

(Edit: code ook daadwerkelijk toegevoegd. Ooit ga ik dat internet en links en zo snappen).

Keyboards is no beter. Like you said, the fluff makes the hobby.

Just looking at it makes me wonder why you'd consider the thumb placement that strange (although all hands are different and all that). What was off about it for you?

I'm actually still on my first ergo, a Lily58 (my first mechanical was a "regular" 75%). I was a bit on the fence between this and the Corne, and I think I would've been fine going with the Corne; I barely used the numrow and currently it's not even mapped, and I'm experimenting with putting the things I had left on the outer columns on layers or combos.

But regret... no, of course not. It's been a great learning experience so far!

I'll certainly build more boards at some point, at least a Corne because, well, gotta build a Corne, but maybe some other things as well. Maybe a Charybdis or a Cygnus or something like that.

You gotta love the copy on the Warp site. As for why they're now launching it on Linux:

Despite this, Linux has relatively few terminal options compared to Mac and Windows

...relatively few? Really?
