  • I’ve been doing that style thing for years and it’s great. Have to say I disagree with his process a bit though. I don’t have the space or time to let it carbonate for a few days.

    I use a 1.5gal keg. Dump an inch or two of ice in the bottom and fill to about 1 gallon with water. My co2 regulator is set at 50psi. Connect co2 and shake for about a minute. You’ll hear it stop bubbling. Leave connected on counter for 15 minutes. Light shake every time you feel like it for those minutes. Disconnect the co2 and put the keg in the fridge. Usually I leave it for another 30 minutes or so before having some.

    No need to leave the co2 connected to serve with that pressure and space. You can be drinking the seltzer after that first minute if you want but it is better with that extra time. No patience for days.













  • I’m shocked spez gave redreader a shout out as still trying to work with them.

    That’s an other dev (quantumbadger) I would expect to be honest with his community. He’d been pretty vocal in earlier updates that he wasn’t going to be able to pay them at any price since his app is FOSS and distributed as source.

    Curious what his next update will say.


  • I loved the commentary on that exchange from hackernews.

    The rule that you shouldn’t build your business on someone else’s API obviously applies here and in the end Reddit is of course justified in choosing to shut out third party apps. But I must say it is simply hilarious that their exorbitant new price was so absurd that when devs quoted it back to them as a buyout rate, Reddit felt like they were being blackmailed. I mean that’s literally getting offended at your own number. “”"

    He’s right. If you think the golden goose lays $x/yr and the guy offers it at $.5x and it offends you, you’ve got a problem with yourself.
