The Black Blood of the Earth and Steins of Science guy. Also, everyone's friendly internet laser safety officer and health physicist. Known to collect & rant about coins and their relation to history. Happy to answer Antarctica questions but do keep in mind my knowledge is now 20 years old. Slightly less interesting real life version of Dr. Phil Broughton from Atomic Robo.
The BBotE order slots for the production window ending June 21st are now up for your ordering pleasure. I may cut this one a little short as I'd like to go out of town for some fun on a Juneteenth long weekend.
Also planning a Hawaii trip in August. More coffee to try.
The BBotE order slots for the production window ending June 7th are now up for your pleasure. And to those who get to enjoy it, have a good holiday weekend! https://shop.funraniumlabs.com/coffee/
Okay, only the Fukushima post is longer than this but the Camino Primitivo After Action Report, Part 3 is finally done. I offer this as a Mother's Day gift to my mom. https://www.funraniumlabs.com/2025/05/camino-primitivo-after-action-report-part-3/
And with that shipment, this production window is wrapped up. The BBotE order slots for the window ending May 24th are now up for your ordering pleasure.
Sampler Pack II's will get a bit of the Rwandan I've been tinkering with...assuming I don't drink it all. https://shop.funraniumlabs.com/coffee/
Because I am now at the airport, the slots for the current BBotE production window is now closed and the one ending May 10th is now open for your ordering pleasure. Coffee engines fire back up on Monday! https://shop.funraniumlabs.com/coffee/
@weekend_editor @rose_alibi Generally we try to bring the equipment up to standards, but Administrative Controls will have to do sometimes.
As promised years ago and really prompted by me having a rant at my mom, I give you the BBotE Coffee Agronomy rant. With special guest star, Jamais Cascio's BANI model for prediction and modeling. https://www.funraniumlabs.com/2025/04/tariffs-bani-and-coffee-agronomy/
@JamesK ALL SMALL MAMMALS, HIDE!!! PRACTICE ETERNAL RAPTOR VIGILANCE!!!
The BBotE order slots for the production window ending April 26th are now up for your ordering pleasure. I have a Reference Rant brewing in my head about coffee agronomy & tariffs as enough people have asked, but we'll see how fast I manage to write that for everyone. https://shop.funraniumlabs.com/
The order slots for the BBotE production window ending April 12th are now up. Also there's ~48hrs left where the SMILINGMAN 10% off coupon code I made in honor of Better Offline CES episodes with Ed Zitron will work. https://shop.funraniumlabs.com/coffee/
@suihkulokki There is a statistical chance that some of the uranium may have transmuted itself just sitting there, so it isn't a lie exactly. You are not going to find it however.
After the last BBotE production window which was a crunch due to all the travel in it, the new order slots for the window ending March 29th are now up for your ordering pleasure. With a more leisurely production pace for me, perhaps.
The BBotE order slots for the production window ending on the Ides of March are now available for your ordering pleasure. I will do my best ship everything I can this Saturday before I fly to Orlando for ILSC 2025. I hope to bring you Laser Stories back from it. https://shop.funraniumlabs.com/
@adrienne @ajn142 a waste of my time, specifically, and people like me. The people you depend on to keep you safe and let you know where the dangers are. You would also be teaching people to have contempt for hazard postings and to disregard to them.
Contempt for police is fine and all. See if you can find a a way to do it without destroying the already tattered safety net we depend on.
