Drying bubble hash11/13/2023 If you're looking for a way to decrease your bubble hash drying time without adding several thousand dollars to the budget with a freeze dryer, buchner funnel tech may be your answer. This helps to reduce the overall drying time and it also helps to reduce contamination issues with mold growth. The Buchner funnel doesn’t dry the hash completely, but it does help get a lot of water out of the material in a very short time. Learn more about wine fridges in How To Use a Wine Cooler To Dry Bubble Hash. Placing the parchment paper on a mesh cookie cooling rack prior to placing the hash into the wine fridge will help with airflow and drying. I sift directly onto a sheet of parchment paper and then slide that onto one of the shelves of the wine fridge. I use a wine fridge to put the material in after it’s sifted. Learn more about sieving in How To Properly Sieve Bubble Hash for Air Drying Most of the time the material needs to be pulled out of the Buchner funnel, then cut up and allowed to dry a little bit longer before it is able to be sieved. Creating more surface area will allow it to dry faster.ġ0. Sometimes the material will be able to be sieved after it comes out of the Buchner funnel, which helps it dry even faster. You can then chop up the hash with a knife and break it down some more. After the material is finished in the Buchner funnel, pull the nylon drying sheet and the hash out of the funnel and place it onto a piece of cardboard. This is the stage that requires a little bit of practice and finesse to get it dialed in for your environment and the material that you are using.ĩ. After purchasing all your supplies, it's time for assembly and set up.Ĩ. Run the vacuum pump for 3-10 minutes depending on the amount of hash, how wet it is and what your relative humidity is.

I wanted to get the info out as open sourced so that everyone could be able to make their own high quality medication.īefore we jump into the process, let's review the list of supplies needed. So I ordered the parts and gave it a try and low and behold it did work well! As a medical cannabis patient myself, I have always been a proponent of helping patients. It seemed like it would be the right fit for what I needed. So I thought to myself, "I wonder if there is a cheaper way to get similar results without having to spend thousands of dollars on a freeze dryer"? I thought about the process that the freeze dryer does and then I remember using a Buchner Funnel in chemistry class. I looked around and started to price them and they were way out of my budget for me to purchase for making my own head stash. One day I was making hash and I was thinking about purchasing a freeze dryer. Let's hear from Tyler about how he got started with Buchner Funnel Tech: No budget for a freeze dryer? No problem. We'll include a link to Tyler's full video with Shango Los at the end of this article. We're grateful for his time and willingness to teach this approach to drying bubble hash. Tyler is a cannabis activist, farmer, hash maker, syndicated journalist, and consultant with over 25 years of experience. We are fortunate to host Tyler Markwart in our lab today to talk about his experience developing and using the Buchner Funnel Tech for air drying bubble hash.

Microsoft to do and planner11/13/2023 ![]() In May 2020, Microsoft officially closed the doors on Wunderlist, ending its active service in favor of improving and expanding Microsoft To Do. The name was also slightly updated by removing the hyphen from To-Do. A daily planner for Microsoft Todo - see Outlook meetings next to your To Do tasks, pulled from tools you use everyday. In September 2019, a major update to the app was unveiled, adopting a new user interface with a closer resemblance to Wunderlist. Planner and Microsoft Teams work well together. Manage all your tasks in Microsoft Teams. ![]() You can use Microsoft To Do for shopping lists. Search, view, and export audit records in Project for the web, Planner and Microsoft To Do. Microsoft 365 also connects Planner with Microsoft To Do, SharePoint, Power Automate, and other apps for efficient task management. The name will then temporarily change to Tasks by Planner and To Do, and later on, it will be renamed to Tasks.On Teams mobile clients, users will always see the app name as Tasks. Later more features were added including Task list sharing in June 2018. Microsoft To Do is a powerful task management app that makes it easy to stay organized and manage your life. As we roll out the Tasks experience on Teams desktop clients, the app name will initially appear as Planner to users. Microsoft To Do was first launched as a preview with basic features in April 2017. Microsoft 365 also connects Planner with Microsoft To Do, SharePoint, Power Automate, and other apps for efficient task management. The technology is produced by the team behind Wunderlist, which was acquired by Microsoft, and the stand-alone apps feed into the existing Tasks feature of the Outlook product range. Planner is part of Microsoft 365, so it’s highly secure like your other Microsoft 365 apps. It allows users to manage their tasks from a smartphone, tablet and computer. ![]() Microsoft To Do (previously styled as Microsoft To-Do) is a cloud-based task management application. I love using Sunsama and I wish I was able to drag my assigned tasks over. For the other program sometimes referred to as Microsoft Tasks, see Microsoft Planner. You can give people access to the plan if you have permission to do so (you’ll need to be the owner of the Microsoft 365 group for that plan). My company is all-in on Microsoft and using Tasks By Planner and To Do in Teams.

Our souls at night book plot haruf11/13/2023 ![]() ![]() Like the friendly light shining from Addie's window, Haruf’s final novel is a beacon of hope he is sorely missed.” -Francesca Wade, Financial Times “Haruf is never sentimental, and the ending-multiple twists packed into the last twenty pages-is gritty, painful and utterly human. His novels are imbued with an affection and understanding that transform the most mundane details into poetry. I recommend reading it straight through, then sitting in quiet reflection of beautiful literary art.” -Fred Ohles, The Lincoln Journal Star “By turns amusing and sad, skipping-down-the-sidewalk light and pensive. ![]() The story speeds along, almost as if it's a page-turning mystery.” -Joseph Peschel, The St. “A fine and poignant novel that demonstrates that our desire to love and to be loved does not dissolve with age. “Elegiac, mournful and compassionate.a triumphant end to an inspiring literary career a reminder of a loss on the American cultural landscape, as well as a parting gift from a master storyteller.” -William J. Haruf’s story accumulates resonance through carefully chosen details the novel is quiet but never complacent.” - The New Yorker “A delicate, sneakily devastating evocation of place and character. He has given us a powerful, pared-down story of two characters who refuse to go gentle into that good night.” -Lynn Rosen, The Philadelphia Enquirer As a meditation on life and forthcoming death, Haruf couldn’t have done any better. “A fitting close to a storied career, a beautiful rumination on aging, accommodation, and our need to connect. “Lateness-and second chances-have always been a theme for Haruf. But here, in a book about love and the aftermath of grief, in his final hours, he has produced his most intense expression of that yet. Packed into less than 200 pages are all the issues late life provokes.” -John Freeman, The Boston Globe spare but eloquent, bittersweet yet hopeful.” -Kurt Rabin, The Fredericksburg Freelance-Star The novel is a plainspoken, vernacular farewell.” -Catherine Holmes, The Charleston Post and Courier Haruf's fiction ratifies ordinary, nonflashy decency, but he also knows that even the most placid lives are more complicated than they appear from the outside. “More Winesburg that Mayberry, Holt and its residents are shaped by physical solitude and emotional reticence.

Roguebook release11/13/2023 I mean…the combat screen in Roguebook couldn’t be more similar to Slay the Spire, down to the location of totems, special items, buffs and the discard deck. The game would have to do much to reverse this inevitable fatigue with the ubiquity of these sub-genres. To be honest, even with all my hopes and expectations in place, I was tired of Roguebook before it even began. Though the game is heavily marketed as being a Richard Garfield joint, it is clear that he is lateral and not central to the project as a whole. Add to that hex-based maps and talent trees and JRPG-style combat using the aforementioned decks. ![]() So I was doubly curious and extra excited to see what Richard Garfield teaming up with the Faeria crew could create, especially if they were going to take on a seriously overwrought set of game trends that we see everywhere: Rogue-likes, deck-builders, and Rogue-like deck-builders. In fact, there is a direct tie-in to the Faeria world, though you’d only really get this from the opening crawl: “The Lore Book, a relic containing all the world’s legends, was lost in a well of Faeria and developed a wicked free will of its own.” With this disruptive game system, Roguebook players will want to collect lots of cards in order to unlock new skills for their pair of heroes and create explosive synergies!” “Roguebook gives players the chance to explore the subtleties of Roguebook’s gameplay, such as inserting gems to upgrade the cards in your deck or exploring the world through its ingenious inkwell system, not to mention the concept of the Tower Deck, which reinvents deckbuilding. The marketing copy for this new AA Game title from the makers of Faeria is as follows: He has a knack for streamlining extremely complex concepts into manageable, approachable packages like Magic: The Gathering, Bunny Kingdom and Keyforge. ![]() Roguebook is interesting to me because Richard Garfield is a game-systems master if ever there was one.

Dragonfly cobalt specs11/12/2023 ![]() Let’s talk numbers, specifically the 24/96 ceiling. It’s an inherently dynamic, powerful sound, full of energy… but not over-exuberant, as can be the case with the Black and to a lesser extent the Red. What Cobalt does is a lot of what the two cheaper Dragonflies do, but more so and better. This also means the whole 64-bit bit-perfect volume control ends up being ‘dimed’ and ignored in a system context. In the home, in the majority of cases, the Dragonfly Cobalt is going to hang off the end of a USB output of a computer (the exception is something like the Stack Audio Link, of course, and that is worthy of note in and of itself), with a mini-jack to two-RCA phono cable on the other end of the little blue box. In fact, it shares almost nothing with its older but smaller brothers. Some may gracelessly add the Jitterbug circuitry as a sop to change but see this in a very narrow light. The former will look at those specs and dismiss the Cobalt as just another Dragonfly with a new DAC. This is where the spec-readers and the real-worlders differ. It will support higher rate MQA files, however. The downside is as it comes, like the Red and Black before it, hi-res is limited to 24-bit, 96kHz PCM. The advantage to this is ‘no damn drivers’ and it means it works with practically everything that ever sported a USB output. There is no way to change this or any other function of the Dragonfly from the case in fact, the only indication is the change in light of the Dragonfly on its top.Īlthough it comes with a USB 3.0 ‘Dragontail’, AudioQuest wanted maximum backwards compatibility, which means it works under USB 1.0 standards with ease. The filter is now ‘slow-roll-off minimum phase’ (previous iterations were fast roll-off only). The two named chips mean a third more processing speed overall, meaning a better sound from an even smaller form factor. The DAC part of the DAC itself is the latest ESS ES9038Q2M (for ‘mobile’) chip, fed by a Microchip PIC32MX274 USB receiver chip, with the company’s monoClock ultra-low-jitter clock, StreamLength asynchronous USB, and also sports elements of AudioQuest’s own jitter-busting Jitterbug, all in something that looks an elegant USB storage key. In essence, you could think of it as what happens when the Dragonfly meets 2019’s technology. This does not replace the existing models it sits above them. Now, they are joined by the Cobalt as the name suggests a vibrant blue USB converter, designed for a wealth of uses. It eventually morphed into two models in 2016 – the entry-level Dragonfly Black and the more up-scale Dragonfly Red. It’s hard to believe, but the original Dragonfly DAC from AudioQuest first hit the streets back in 2012. The second part – as a headphone DAC/amp in its own right – will be published in an upcoming issue of the magazine. ![]() ![]() Note: this is the first of a two-part review, concentrating on the DAC in its home audio capacity.
