Exactly, if you have your own, the satisfaction is a beautiful thing in the end.
Last new years eve I made infused chocolates, mostly farm to table: grew the cannabis (organic soil), infused the oil, made the chocolates. With that I could tell everyone the ingredients and dosage, as well as advice eating them, which went down a treat.
It’s honestly the part that needs the most rigour: bite the bullet and buy yourself a thermometer that can go into the oven/pot. Temperature is the most critical, so i figure it’s not worth assuming.
I found my oven ran hotter than i set it ~10oC, as well as the glass jar heated up slower (due to thermal mass).
Should only cost 15-25€ and pays for itself vs a wasted batch.
I’m definitely giving catchyOS a go then, Bazzite proved games can (on a N 4070s) run in a fun way, so now I’ll get CatchyOS to replace windows (gaming/light work).
I’ve never had windows break on me, but I’m just so sick of the slop. I just want some peace when I switch on my desktop.
Every year I look how I could give a few hours a week, but I leave bewildered (seems like every projects wants you to fork ans submit changes). Do you or anyone know of arrangement more like “here’s a ticket, punch in, do it, punch out”.
I love edible chemistry, i make more than i eat because of it :)
Unfortunately edibles using alcohol or oven strip terps. Im not sure how much gets digested, happy to hear from someone on that.
In terms or feco i would suggest this: decarb in oven (using silicon bag or glass jar to retain any possible terps). Then do the frozen alcohol feco (golden dragon style). Then leave with a lid off for a few days and it’ll evaporate by itself or double boil it.
So, gelatine are the easiest, with infused oil. They don’t last long however, especially for a lightweight like me. So, highly suggest using FECO.
Shelf-stable gelatine FECO gummies
Firm chew, ~50 gummies, 45 min active. Metric.
Ingredients
Gelatine powder, 200 Bloom (the premium stuff) 10 g
Cold water for blooming 22 ml
White sugar 35 g
Glucose syrup 18 g
Citric acid 0.75 g, half for the cook and half for the coating
Potassium sorbate 0.06 g
Concentrated flavouring 0.7 g
FECO dosed to your extract
Digital thermometer reading to 120 °C required. Test/calibrate with boiling water to make sure it’s accurate.
I use for flavouring “Flavorah Mango Pineapple passion”. I hear Lorann is a good one too.
FECO
The complicated part. If this intimidating, infuse mct oil. For me FECO is worth it as less is needed per gummy, which is more shelf stable ans is useful for a lot of edibles.
Dosage
Estimate THC in your FECO, divide by mould count, I suggest to target 2.5 mg per gummy. Trim-based FECO is far weaker than bud-based, as i found, and also don't reuse someone else's numbers on this stuff.
Method
Sprinkle gelatine over the cold water, leave 10 min until rubbery.
Dissolve sugar and glucose syrup in a saucepan over gentle heat. Don't boil.
Stir in the bloomed gelatine over low heat until melted.
Raise to 105–110 °C, hold 1–2 min, stirring. Never exceed 115 °C.
Off heat, cool to 75–80 °C. Add half the citric acid, the potassium sorbate, flavouring and FECO. Stir 30 seconds, uneven stirring means uneven doses.
Pour into silicone moulds immediately.
Set 1 hour at room temperature, then fridge overnight.
Demould, air-dry 24 hours, flip at 12.
Optional: toss in 90% sugar / 10% citric acid.
Texture
Drying time is the main firmness… 48 hr gives a hard chew, 24 h a softer chew.
Storage
Store in fridge and/or vacuum-seal in small portions, cool and dark. Keeps close to a year. At 24 h drying, check a bag at two months for sweating.
Protips (?)
Always label.
Spray/wipe the moulds with (mct) oil if have a tricky mould. High quality moulds help. If they aren’t set enough, leave them on a rack for a few days, no issue there. Oven on 50oC for 2-3 hours if weather is bad and they aren’t setting at all.
Legend
Oh fuck you haha
Funny, I dropped Seiko 3/4 of the way through. Elden ring has been on the wishlist, never bought it.
I guess it’s hard to beat the best, all the co-op and troll-invade glory that was DS.
Exactly why, to the distress of we fans. Got a movie but meh
Dark souls. I tried it a few times and dismissed. I returned to DS2 when DS3, at the request of a fanboi friend.
Accepting defeat, dusting myself off and surpassing all odds changed my mentality and patience with gaming forever.
Fuck me big bad boss? No, fuck you
Firefly (Hehe you had forgotten hadn’t you)

Confirms what i thought, thanks. Maybe we need to make a better process for this, or champion it if there is always one.

Awesome recount, cheers.

Troubleshooting with an audience is never fun haha.
My only disadvantage seems to be my nvidia 4070 super…. But i haven’t seen a big issue with it in Bazzite. All im seeing and hearing are wins
Interesting, quick solve too.
This has convinced me to try it out. Pretty impressive. Now i’ll try CatchyOS to replace windows.
Bazzite has been awesome while I only wanted to game.
Great points.
The way I’ve worked is usually: onboarding, identify work to be done, tickets (part of that forking), review/done.
So if the onboarding, identifying wtbd and then the work is done by me independently… that seems like weeks of work to submit a suggestion.. you know?
UX design work needs a lot of research, understanding and alignment to stick.
Am I missing something?
Anything break along the way?
Appreciate the response. Interesting vs my experience with Bazzite. Have the rolling, frequent updates broken anything?
CachyOS is arch right, is that regular work to keep it running or gaming?
How the hell do UX designers contribute?!
