@piggo Intriguing! That looks surprisingly useful.<looks into “manual bread slicers”>Jesus fuck they're expensive!

@piggo I'm not sure how you're measuring RPM or whether this is feasible, but can you get it to generate more than one pulse per rotation?

This has become my standard loaf: unbleached bread flour, potato, and a dash of sugar (mostly a spoon of honey, this time a splash of maple syrup).#BreadPosting

@piggo it is sourdough. It gets left overnight on the bench, then shaped and rested/risen/whatever in a slightly warmed oven for a couple of hours, then baked.

@piggo Incidentally, what made you think it was not sourdough initially?

@piggo Ah, right. I think in my experience that's a property of the flour used rather than the starter?If I add even a little bit of spelt it's immediately much more dense (and generally a bit more uniform, too).What I find happens if I don't do the warm-oven-rise/prove/whatever is the bread gets a thin gluggy layer of semi-cooked dough near the bottom. So I'd get breads with quite an open crumb up top and kinda stodgy down the bottom.

@piggo that is definitely a dough!

@piggo you can reclaim some audio quality by selecting one of the non-baseline codecs (mSBC, giving you 16kHz sampling rather than 8kHz IIRC). I think you'll need to be using Pipewire for that; I don't believe that PulseAudio ever implemented the necessary switches to enable non-terrible BT codecs.

@mjg59 @directhex Huh. I would have expected reasonably-modern Dells to have had marginally competent FW, but my (2018) XPS 15 doesn't have that var.

@vorlon the various @mjg59 threads in which he shouts at terrible software while trying to do this suggest to me that the answer is “no, there's not a working of-the shelf solution” for this.
