@pagrus the chorizo making isn’t happening on the beach, i assume

@ljwrites this is the second time that knowing they use a fairly short curated wordlist for wins has messed with me—I knew the word but it just seemed so improbable

@flipp plenty of them are—a lot of the instances with open signups reported an influx of new users this week

And for others, it wasn’t too bad to switch from kickstarter to indiegogo but it’s a lot more effort to disentangle your social network from a site. They might be taking steps to leave (like getting alternative contact info) but its not as visible as someone closing an account

@emma @gnomon @erinbee lj icons were 100x100px so if we kept that it shouldn't add too much server strain, in comparison to normal post attachments i think?

@emma @gnomon @erinbee i would love if i could upload all my dreamwidth icons here!

@Rowyn a delightful problem to have!

@Rowyn nice! How does it taste?

@Rowyn yeah I’ve found that they tend to put higher-melting point fats in chocolate chips, so that it holds its shape better while getting baked, which means you’re working with an even narrower temp range than normal if you use them. Throwing in a spoonful or two of an oil thats liquid at room temp may make it so that it’s actually pourable at temper temperatures. But also I wouldn’t worry about a few small lumps for something like this — you can strain/pick them out if you care but if anything they’re improving the seeding

(I havent done hot chocolate bombs but I’ve done a fair bit of other work with chocolate in silicone moulds. It really is a pain but its fun)

@pagrus they’re not usually friends so this is Great Affection
