   I like my vertical axis gamepad setting the same way I like my Aeropress brewing method.

   What am I?

     @killyourfm On a side note: old people play with the Y axis inverted. Old people is also me.

     @killyourfm Hopped on Mastodon at the right time! I don’t have an AeroPress, but I also set my up and down to inverted. Spent too much time playing flight sims when I was young to think to do anything but “pull up, PULL UP!”.

     @justforfun @whylamb YES. That is a sensible idea.

     @killyourfm @whylamb
     I am very tempted to switch to the inverted brewing method would it be prudent to do the first few tries on a baking sheet to contain an inevitable mess?

     @quasigod It seems like whenever I do the standard Aeropress method, water always leaks through too early -- I use enough beans, I level the bed of grounds, and I stir, etc.

     So that's why I switched to Inverted!

     And yes, I grew up playing flight sims! That muscle memory stuck for life.

     @killyourfm have you tried placing the plunger on top? i find it keeps all the water in and my clumsy self is much less likely to make a mess

     did you play flight sims? most people I know who play inverted played a lot of them!
