Hot coffee

This could just be me but I've drunk strictly iced coffee for over a year now and I forgot how comforting a warm cappucino is

When you make a hot coffee

And don’t drink it all • so it cools to room temp, but then you do drink it-it somehow feels cold ; might be a form of magic?

Iced coffees on hot days

I think people who drink hot coffee on hot days are prone to becoming serial killers. I also think iced coffees should be drank on cold days as well. Iced coffee supremacy.

learn to scrape the internet

you people seem cool so i try to avoid too much nerd/code/tech talk but here we go anyway. 🤓 one of the most useful skills i have acquired as a coder is the ability to steal things from the internet. there is so much stuff on the web that you ostensibly are supposed to pay for, but with a little coding know-how you can scrape the relevant data, download it to your computer, keep it forever and never pay a dime for it. Or maybe pay for it once but be able to cancel your ongoing subscription to it. I have used this skill to steal / borrow / archive: - workout videos from a paid yoga app - cocktail recipes - food recipes - music - library books - instructional materials - graphical source material for making art Depending on what you’re doing, this can require more or less technical skill, but likely less than you expect. this is also a thing that chatgpt is very good at walking you through, if you ask it for help. it feels especially rewarding to learn a new skill in service of saving yourself money, too. Even if the content in question is free, it’s nice to know you’ll have it for eternity even if a provider goes out of business, and it enables you to search/organize/manage the content however you like (with no ads, paywalls, etc). it’s a useful exercise in digital literacy that demystifies a little bit of the technical world that surrounds us, and it always gives me a thrilling little frisson of “civil disobedience” or at least naughtiness.

ios animated stickers

so first of all, if you didnt know, you can press and hold on stuff in a photo on your phone and create "stickers" you can send in imessage. but i just discovered you can press and hold on a "live photo" and get an animated sticker i am going to be so annoying in chats with this feature (I don't think pi.fyi supports gifs/animations so visit link to see example)
