@valeriocoletti @CalumDouglas1 @lapinos Wow! Ok, fair enough! 🤣

This might improve the planet by a non zero amount. Find out what the correct sodding replacement seal is for your MOKA pot. The manufacturer adopted the hilarious “cup” unit to describe the inner and outer diameter of a ring. Mine is a “9cup” size apparently which is of course not inscribed anywhere on the unit, and which has a capacity of an about two coffee cups volume. Obviously 😑

@woodtangclang @CalumDouglas1 @lapinos Effect is the same. Diluting what is already perfect, just to make it worse. If someone likes a "long" coffee, moka is not the right tool to make it. It is engineered to concentrate all the flavour and scent in a small amount, while cup's material and shape play a specific role

@valeriocoletti @CalumDouglas1 @lapinos Americano is an espresso shot topped up with water. Not a long pull through the portafiler.

@caleschips @CalumDouglas1 @lapinos I drink roughly 8 espresso cups (up to 10/15 back in the days) during a single day... yet any single of them is the proper amount 🙂

@valeriocoletti @CalumDouglas1 @lapinos You dont understand... we absolutely *will* drink 100ml of espresso.

@CalumDouglas1 @lapinos An Italian caffè (espresso) is max 25ml !!! Not 50 or God forbid 100 ml. It's not dirty dishwasher water (i.e. americano)...

@lapinos Yes and they range from 50 to 100ml.

Liftoff. The Artemis II mission launched from @NASAKennedy at 6:35pm ET (2235 UTC), propelling four astronauts on a journey around the Moon. Artemis II will pave the way for future Moon landings, as well as the next giant leap — astronauts on Mars.

L’esperimento sociale e organizzativo di @jack Dorsey con #Block è così lontano dalle miopi chiacchiere luddiste sull’AI da sembrare onirico. Ricordo quando lo stesso Dorsey concepì #Twitter, ormai 20 anni fa, come modello di coordinamento informativo distribuito che disintermediava le news agencies. Oggi ci riprova, smantellando le gerarchie aziendali e svuotando il ruolo stesso del management. Nella sua nuova impresa rimangono solo tre “mestieri” umani e quattro strati di tecnologia. Invece di progettare un inefficace Co-pilota, ridisegna il “world model” dell’organizzazione. Il suo mini-saggio “From Hierarchy to Intelligence” merita la nostra lettura, prima che i suoi effetti erodano molte delle nostre rendite di posizione.

@Valeria__79 Sono foto di questi giorni? Vedo che in basso è ormai libero da neve, solo sulla cresta lato Campo Felice si vede imbiancato

@valeriocoletti Precisamente! 😉

Indovina indovinello: che posticino è? La conformazione geologica dovrebbe aiutare 😉

Tra pochi giorni, il 14 marzo, PK compirà trent'anni. Per festeggiare questo traguardo, Panini sta lavorando a una serie di iniziative. L'11 marzo arriverà in edicola il nuovo numero di Topolino, il 3668, con una copertina dedicata a PK disegnata da Andrea Freccero. All'interno di Topolino 3668 sarà presente una storia inedita, intitolata Esperimento Abominio, scritta da Francesco Artibani e disegnata da Lorenzo Pastrovicchio. Il 12 marzo sarà poi disponibile un albo inedito di PK, intitolato Meno uno all'alba, scritto da Alessandro Sisti e disegnato da Claudio Sciarrone. Questo volume è una sorta di prequel della primissima serie PKNA e racconta la genesi dell'invasione degli Evroniani. Dice il comunicato stampa: "La storia ripercorre anche le circostanze che hanno portato Ducklair Tower ad essere acquisita da Zio Paperone, tra uno scontro con i Bassotti, l’intervento degli Evroniani e un’asta per miliardari". Il volume sarà disponibile in tre versioni: una regular, con la cover di Claudio Sciarrone, una variant, con la copertina "pittorica" di Paolo Mottura, e una blank per firme e dediche. Tra i prossimi appuntamenti, dice sempre il comunicato stampa, ci sarà una mostra al Be Comics! Be Games! di Padova. Insomma, tanti auguri, PK.

This is a hard road I’m embarking on but… I can do this 💪🏻 And I still have no regrets. I will always believe in what’s possible. Always.

@razhartt Luglio 2024 82 euro l'una (32GB) Dicembre 2025 340 euro l'una 😯👀😱

Lo sapete che se volete farvi un pc nuovo o vi si rompe il vostro fino almeno al 2027 non potete comprare memoria RAM perché per vari accordi commerciali (specialmente di Samsung) TUTTA la produzione di RAM mondiale è dedicata esclusivamente a data center AI? Bello eh?

L'ultimo tramonto dell'estate 2025, immortalato per voi domenica sera in una località del litorale romano che è sempre un piacere raccontare, lì dove pregio naturalistico, affascinanti intrighi della Storia dell'Arte e fatti dell'attualità si incontrano: Palo Laziale.

@MCCCANM Partially related - it's still about fumes, but not the case like in the article. It's more in case of bird strike or similar when LRD enters into action for Leap-1B mounted on 737 MAXs youtu.be/zkVCqWg37_4?si…

I don’t know much about this claim; smoke / fumes in the cabin is just really rare. I’ve never had it, and I’m not sure I know anyone who has. I haven’t heard of an uptick in events, either. I don’t recall reading of any in the airline’s safety bulletin for the past year or so. The air does come from the engines, though. Rarely, something can go wrong w/ the system & put fumes in the cabin. On the 737, at least, we can just turn that “bleed system” off if needed (we “bleed” some air off the engine stages); we’ll turn off the “Packs” first, though – one at a time – to see if the fumes decrease. You wait 2 minutes; if the fumes decrease, you found the right system. If not, you turn the system back on & switch off the other, repeating the process. The air should clear pretty quickly once the source is isolated; cabin air is completely exchanged w/ fresh air once every 2-3 minutes. Which is great, but it also explains why smoke or fumes can accumulate quickly if half of the air system is putting out bad air. If the smoke & fumes don’t clear for some reason, there is a checklist to “dump” the cabin…basically, depressurize. We’ll descend below 14,000’ & open the “Cabin Outflow Valve” fully. It takes about 20 seconds to fully open…when it does, the air will rapidly move aft & out via the valve. You’ll get new air from the outside. (If the fumes don’t clear, that strongly suggests the source isn’t the engines & may be coming from something inside the cabin) Pilots will don their Oxygen masks the moment any smoke or fumes are detected; it’s a “Critical Action Item” or “Boldface” you’re required to memorize. The masks are “overpressured”, meaning air is leaking out of the mask. Because the pressure is higher in the mask than in the cockpit, smoke or fumes can’t enter. It’s a little tough to talk in the masks because of this (the masks have microphones). Passenger O2 masks are not overpressured & are leaky; we don’t use them for smoke or fumes because it won’t block inhalation of either, and now we’re dumping a bunch of pure oxygen into a potential fire…not good. In the case that fumes originate in the cockpit, we can even open the windows if we must, though I’d much rather not do that. Very bad day, blows paperwork around & you won’t be able to close it again, though you’d look cool as hell hanging your arm out like a trucker on approach 😉. Which brings up a good point…fumes don’t just come from the engines. Could be an electrical issue, or something a passenger carried onboard. Older systems used to have a “sock” type fabric piece that absorbed moisture from the air system…it could get moldy or even start smoldering, causing a bad odor…I’m not sure how the water separator works now, other than by differential pressure. If needed, the APU (Auxiliary Power Unit, a small turbine in the tail used to provide electrical & pneumatic power on the ground) can pressurize the jet up to 17,000’ without either engine contributing bleed air. In some situations, we take off with the APU providing air, as we don’t want to take any air off the engines (which reduces thrust by a small amount). It’s usually for short runways in the summer, or high altitude runways, also usually in the summer. That’s a lot of info, I know, but I hope it helps add some context. Im referencing the 737 in my post, but most airplanes have similar options. As for takeaways… …I’m honestly not worried about it. The apparent new, high rate is about 108 events per million flights. That’s 0.01%. As I said earlier, not all fume events even come from the engines…the reporting criteria for these events is vague & was recently changed, so this uptick is of an unknown origin. Even if I wasn’t a pilot, it’s not something that would concern me in the least…but I am, will fly a lot more than you, and this is probably the last time I’ll think of it.

@SteveNomadic I've never had problems - on the road bike - with Continental. Using both GP5000S TR (summer time) and GP5000AS TR (winter time)

Road cyclists: how often do you get tread punctures on your tubeless tires? I swear it’s like 1/5 rides for me. I generally go 20-30 miles per ride, so I always replace the tire before the next ride. Getting annoying! I’m running Pirelli P-Zeros. Open to any suggestions #cycling

@johnkonrad Sant'Eustachio and Tazza D'Oro became a but touristy but still have great quality. I suggest you to get a granita di caffè con panna at Tazza d'Oro. Ps: on salty side, try Trapizzino at Piazza Trilussa for something out of ordinary.

Yes 112 is the emergency number but no American is going to remember it in a panic or after falling off a scooter. Illy is one of the best production brands of coffee, far better than starbucks, but it can’t compare to small batch producers that roast daily and there are a number of coffee shops in rome with actual coffee roasting machines in the back. Here’s a photo I took at SANT'EUSTACHIO, just one of many small shops with fresh small batch roasts

Top Tips for Rome I’ve only been here a few days, so take this with a grain of salt, but sometimes a fresh set of eyes helps: 1.Wake up early. This city is absolutely magnificent during the golden hours—right after sunrise and before sunset. 2.Find a real cappuccino. Anywhere with the Illy logo is probably crap. The easiest place to find authentic coffee? Try Caffè Tazza d’Oro next to the Pantheon. 3.Nap after lunch. Mornings and evenings are the best times to explore, but it’s exhausting if you try to push through all day. 4.ChatGPT recommendations are trash here. No idea why. The workaround: find a hotel or restaurant you’re curious about, screenshot 10 reviews, and ask AI to rate them based on what matters to you (e.g., AC, noise, Wi-Fi). 5.Rent a scooter and ride around for a few hours. You can do it right in the Uber app. Great way to see the city in the morning. 6.The metro is trash. Buses are okay. Tap-to-pay with a credit card or phone works great. Don’t stress the fare—it calculates automatically. 7.Credit cards are accepted almost everywhere—but many places don’t take AmEx. 8.The most magical time in Rome is Sunday morning. Attend 10:30 Mass at the Vatican. You don’t have to be Catholic—just stay seated when everyone lines up for Communion. 9.Don’t carry a huge water bottle. Rome has fountains all over the city. Fill up a small one as needed. 10.Tired from walking? There’s always a church nearby. Step inside, sit down, pray or meditate for 20 minutes. It helps. 11.Uber pricing is inconsistent. We took an early-morning Uber that was super cheap. Later that day, same route = crazy expensive. However, you can order a regular taxi through the Uber app. 12.Bathrooms are hard to find. Look for department stores or McDonald’s in an emergency. 13.Hotspot hack: When you land, have everyone put their phones in Airplane Mode. One person can turn on international roaming and use their phone as a hotspot for the rest. Saves money and keeps kids off their phones. 14.Download offline maps (Google Maps or similar) while you’re still on hotel Wi-Fi. 15.Hit the stairmaster before your trip. Rome is built on hills, and you’ll feel it. 16.Use ChatGPT’s photo feature. Point your camera at signs, menus, or art and ask questions. Game changer. 17.Want to try Italian? Lose the ball cap. Locals will greet you in Italian. If you want English, wear the cap. This isn’t Paris—most Romans are nice either way. Yankees caps are everywhere. 18.Don’t carry your passport around. It might get stolen. But you will need ID for certain places (e.g., the Vatican Museums). I carry my passport card. 19.911 doesn’t work here. Use your phone’s emergency SOS feature—but make sure kids turn off Airplane Mode if they’re going to wander. (They can leave data roaming off.) 20.Download the Italian language pack in Google Translate. It works offline and can be a lifesaver. 21.The police don’t mess around here. And that’s a good thing. 22.Ladies: pack a linen shawl, not crop tops. You can’t enter many churches or museums with bare shoulders. 23.Save gelato for last. It’s loaded with sugar. The 10-minute high turns into a multi-hour crash. Worse: bathrooms are scarce. 24.Airbnb is often cheaper than hotels. Most have laundry machines and towel dryers. I way overpacked not realizing I could do laundry nightly. 25.Bring your own sunscreen. It’s sold at pharmacies but crazy expensive. P.S. The best tip is #10. This is an ancient and religious city. Prayer or meditation stops really help pull everything together.

Ieri in Turchia 10 operatori delle squadre antincendio boschivo hanno perso la vita, mentre lottavano coraggiosamente per contenere le fiamme di un devastante incendio divampato nella provincia di Eskişehir, nella parte nord-occidentale del paese. L'incendio, al pari di decine >>

@FetusberryJam Almost 13h in Italy, full highway with standard 130km/h limit (81mph) Oh and by the way it’s 2h30min faster with the high speed train (300km/h 187 mph) including 10+stops along the route in several cities like Naples Rome Florence Verona and many more

the european mind cannot comprehend driving four hours and still being in the same state
