As stated in other comments, it’s different than an old pot. But, the reason I’ve stopped drinking cold brew is that the flavor DOES remind me of old coffee. I’m much happier with an iced Americano.

Just here to say: “For the Light! For Shinowa!”

Had an electric car for the last 7 years so I got jump-scared when I went to fill up a borrowed truck and an ad started blasting.

The first time I see a video screen on a charger I’m going to start worrying.

However, in cities such as Miami, median list prices are still 50% higher than before the pandemic,”

This is still pretty much the case in Tampa too, property values are so inflated from 2021 and 2022 that a 5% drop really just shows the market leveling off.

But the home insurance market is a sword of Damocles hanging over the state, and Desantis is too busy campaigning against universally popular ballot measures to do anything about it (and has found other culture war bullshit to distract himself from it for years now).

I will never understand people who think this movie isn’t funny - endlessly quotable:

“That’s a lot of nuts!” “You should be able to beat him now!” “Beware his song about big butts, he beats you up while he plays it!”

I could go on. In a just world he would have gotten to make more films, and not just thumb parody movies.

Yeah, though they had mythologized it so much, they probably would have continued searching!

And it was written that no hand but his should wield the Sword held in the Stone, but he did draw it out, like fire in his hand, and his glory did burn the world. Thus did it begin. Thus do we sing his Rebirth. Thus do we sing the beginning.

Even these middle-aged hack frauds can’t deny that Andor is real good!

As someone who bought a new Tesla in February, this is very much true - I’m certainly never going to pay 18-goddamn-thousand dollars for it. I just did my first road trip in the new car and wasn’t inclined to spend $200 to try it out. Traffic-Aware Cruise Control was more than suitable.

When they wanted $5k for it, I could imagine the value proposition (though I’d never spend that much), but the current price point is outrageous.

It’s also been great to see new affordable entry-level equipment become available. I had a friend finally get an espresso machine a few months ago, and I was able to point him to the Fellow Opus, which is only $195 ( and was on sale for $150).

To your point on “When to invest?” - there are certainly things this grinder could do better, but he has yet to hit a real problem in his coffee making. So sure, an $800 grinder might have fewer fines or more micro-adjustments, but that’s not really offering any value to him at the moment.

There are single lines of dialogue in Andor that set my brain on fire more than some entire seasons of other shows.
