I play bass in a swedish metal band called Hoggatah. Here is a link to a music video we recorded a couple of years ago, enjoy: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rtyWNsy5Lrk

Now we're done and this is the result of 5h 30m of work. I will keep you updated on how the fermentation goes during the next 10 days.

Now the beer finally has the right color too.

10 minutes before the boiling ends (it went on for 80 minutes already) I'm adding 15g bitter orange peel and 15g coriander seeds. I put them in a brew bag so I don't need to fish for each and every one of them later.

And in the meantime it's Swedish Fika time for the brew master. It's always around 3 and 4 pm. Some wienerbröd and coffee.

Next step after mashing is boiling. This recipe commands 20 g of hops to boil for 90 minutes.

Now I'm filtering the wort to get it more clean and without haze.

Live streaming be brewing beer in my kitchen: https://youtu.be/M0RpceZvGJA

Preparing to stream live me brewing beer on twitch, just need to figure out how to do it again and I'll be online on https://www.twitch.tv/jeenaparadies

I made a test install of PeerTube and it was amazingly easy to do and it's a great software. The only problem I have with it that it doesn't allow me to share videos just with a selected group of people. It's either everyone or the people who have a link to the video. I can't share hundreds of videos just with my family for example.

I'm looking for software which I can self host and then me and my family can upload and view our videos but nobody else. Is there something like that out there?

I've been thinking about 'happiness' and how weird it is to have it as a life goal. It's intrinsically egoistic, most of the time you need to disregard other peoples needs to become it. It's not particularly difficult to archive, you don't need to be moral or ethical, smart or educated, engaged in anything, etc. It doesn't bring any value to you or others. Wanting to become fulfilled on the other hand, doesn't exclude all the things which are painful to archive but still are much more worth it.

I'm always fascinated by people who are so unsure of them selves that they put legality and illegality as an argument for what you need to argue by morality and ethics.

There are the "Lawrence Kohlberg's stages of moral development [1]", which is not without it's own problems, but it looks at stages of moral development in children and those people seem to stuck in the 2nd stage.

I changed two things in my browser:

1. All cookies but from a handful selected websites, are destroyed when I close the browser
2. uBlock blocks now all 3rd party scripts and assets (like images) but a handful which I manually allow on some specific websites.

A citation from an interview with the slovenian philosopher Slavoj Žižek about the conformist concept of happiness:

> You can be happy without being moral. You can be happy without being interesting or engaged in the world around you. You can be happy without having a single creative idea or interest or passion. You can get everything you desire, and still not be happy. So why even focus on finding bliss?
