Is that what P6 feels like?

Perhaps the curve of familiarity with the other for any empiricist.

Look at a totally foreign thing. First comes cautiousness about whether it exists, but then just by looking you get a vague notion that it's a coherent thing. Then curiosity draws you closer to it and therefore you see the thing in greater detail. Some of the newly visible bits mess with your idealised picture of the thing from before. Only if you decide to persevere in understanding this other do you start to integrate these discordant stimuli into the currently running model of it. As the thing comes into clearer focus you realise that the discoveries are slowly revealing negative entropy. It's safe there. Following the trail inevitably results in reaching the end of it.

If only there were a standardised protocol for consuming the universe.

Also you can get a reusable filter basket and then grind and dose like a normal person.

Was worried about the same thing when ordering a replacement for an aging Aeropress lately. IIRC Keurig's website says they care about the environment blah blah blah and have been "working on it" for a while, but no concrete promises.

It's an always-on kettle with a semi-pressurized, single-serve coffee maker attached.

PSA: nobody should buy the standard plastic K-Cups.

Unless the Tor site is a honeypot. Hmm a bit odd they don't have any offline validation instructions on there ;)

I guess the downloaded source code could always be diffed with a known legit copy, if it was compiled on a trusted machine.

By the way, how does one determine the right amount of paranoia?

Thought it was good because it doesn't give a lot of attention to purely economic stuff.
