–Hot again.
–Went to UPS to pick up (a) Magnus Sweep Ultem slider (not bad, but doesn’t swing easily); (b) superconductor buttons (laughably small); (c) Motta pitcher for frothing milk (thought at first it was much bigger than my current Motta, but they’re the same).
–Polished some slider plates. Aside from leaving some gunk on them, it did nothing. I guess the best way to smooth sliders is to slide them. I did notice that screws in all five used sliders were a tad loose. Tightening them didn’t affect action, but it felt reassuring.
–Chrome (Google) shut down my Paywall avoider and Cookie finder. I switched to Firefox, as much out of spite as anything: it doesn’t support the Paywall app. I was reminded that archive.ph is still good for reading WSJ articles.
–I noticed that my Coinbase account went up > $5,000 last night, so I sent $5k to Heritage. I don’t know what’s going on, as I dropped out of various reddit crypto groups a while back.
