@th lol, same energy.
I was reposting someone's photo of the reproduction of the Charles Babbage difference engine that was on exhibit at the Computer History Museum some years ago.
The difference engine looks even more like a grinder and when I saw it in person, I learned that it operated very much so like a very heavy mechanical grinder because they had to modify the original design so that a person of normal strength could (sweatily) crank the gears.

@th Wow, what a grinder. Don't take it with you outside, or the smartest of those thugs around could mistake it for a grenade.

@th @GreatDismal other people: "OH NO LOOK HE'S GOT A BOMB!"
"oh don't worry it's just a weirdo who's about to grind his own coffee at the stoop"

@xan @th @GreatDismal It's spelt bombe.

@th That’s odd.

@th whupps, I accidentally deleted my earlier post.
Anyway, I was trying to show this photo:

@th It is for counting beans, not grinding them. But you could use it to grind numbers.
