  • a good manual grinder will beat any fancy electric one

    You mean the price/quality ratio? Sure. I used to use Hario Skerton at work, and it’s been doing its job fine, although adjusting the grind was quite annoying. Also i think it has a very narrow adjustment range, which might be a problem if you use different brewing techniques.















  • I used to be a dual monitor user, but nowadays I’m using a single large monitor because I had to rearrange some things in my work room. For work a single monitor is fine, but I’m also doing some Twitch streaming, and multiplayer gaming, and for that I actually am now thinking of going back to two monitors.

    The other important thing for me personally is resolution. If I’m working with text, 4k is absolutely necessary, for gaming UHD is fine.

    Monitor arms do help with desk space a lot. However, you should also keep in mind that you will need some clearance behind the deck for the “elbow” of the arm.

    The other option to save space is a shelf stand, which raises your monitor a little above the table and allows you to store something under it.
