What's an absurd luxury you pine for?

[hakfoo@lemmy.sdf.org]

Air-conditioned dhed with high volume air cleaning for toxic actibities like soldering, plastic models, spray painiting, 3-D printing...

And a 3-d printer with a cross section of a metre on a side. I am sick of having to cut up designs, I want to print an entire extended-ATX case in a single run.

A nugget ice machine. Nuggets ice is the perfect chewing ice - not too hard it will crack teeth, even consistency unlike crushed ice, firm like tight packed snow. It's like chewing on frosty heaven.

But it's absurdly expensive for what little it does. At least a couple hundred dollars for a counter top ice maker that does nothing but make perfect ice.

Yessss.

My first year of university, I lived in residence and the cafeteria had a nugget ice machine. Every day before class I'd swing through and fill my water bottle to the brim with ice and top if off with water. I'd have enough ice to crunch until my classes were done (not in class, I'm not a monster).

I miss it so much.

Also, a post-mix bar gun. Mostly just for carbonated water, because I'm also a fizz addict and those things are just fun.

I just bought a house with a 12x12 room in the back of the upstairs for my gf to create exactly this. She loves it. Has a rocking chair, blanket, and a half dozen bookcases filled up.

I hope you get the same one day!

Luxury hack: just add money /s

There are certain 12" records which despite only having one it two songs in them go for ludicrous prices, in the hundreds. I'd quite like to have those please.

This is an efficient method, yes, but it's doable without money: If you fly enough you rack up enough bonus points to upgrade for free.

I've wanted someone to invent this for years.

It looks like a blank book. Pages feel and smell like paper. Insert a disc and text appears on the pages. Any book you want with the feel of a book and the convenience of an e-reader.

The Romans would have thought that even Kings did not enjoy such luxuries as an ice maker. They would be all "what sorcery is this?!"

A personal datacenter with 3-digit terabytes of storage, terabytes of RAM, and 3-digit CPUs. Unless I win the lottery (and the safe withdraw rate on these investments are high enough), I won't be getting any of this.

In my case, the house I bought had been renovated before I bought it, but so poorly that it was considered a "fixer-upper" anyway. Technically, the kitchen has a refrigerator water supply, but the layout was so awkward that I ended up putting a cabinet in front of it and putting my refrigerator on the other side of the room.

I eventually ended up getting a countertop ice maker for ~$150, which is less convenient than a built-in one would be, but is also kinda nice because it makes relatively fancy, chewable "nugget" ice.

That's actually pretty attainable!
