Me too. And I’d rather not look it up, to not give them more measured attention. I’d rather ask people who experienced it :D

It didn’t take a lot for me. I clicked on the link, took a look at the first post and there you go! Advocating for terrorism and defending genocide, and every comment is full of hate, using mostly language that is particular to dark corners of the internet where incels and fascists thrive.

The comments weren’t responses to comments they didn’t agree with so it’s not like they got provoked or anything. The hate is inherent. Imagine what it looks like when someone tries to contradict them.

For me, I’d like to be as far away from such resources as possible. They give too many negative vibes, and I’d rather spend my time and energy in places that have a possibility of a constructive discourse.

I’ve enjoyed coffee that was roasted with cinnamon. I’ve mixed in cinnamon with ground coffee myself (in the upper part of the espresso puck only) for a similar effect. Tastes great. Would recommend.

I’ve had coffee with orange juice, which was weird but ok.

As long as you mix in good ingredients, you get something good, that individual taste would judge if it’s likeable.

After all, what’s so objectively likeable about bitter bean juice in the first place?

Consider a compromise between traditional espresso machines and button to cup ones, in the form of Breville Oracle. It’s only a bit more effort than just a button, but what you get is better coffee than similarly priced automated machines, the opportunity to use it as a traditional machine if you wanna, and the ease of cleaning.

If you wanna achieve 9 bars of pressure with a constant coffee beans amount and varying beans type (medium roast, dark roast, different varieties within the same brand, etc) you will need to finetune the grind size setting quite a lot. Even tiny grind size differences have a big influence on your brew.

Convenience and performance.

I’m a dual user of Firefox and Brave on different computers. In order to separate work and personal stuff and shopping, I use different profiles. Easy on brave, needs extension with separate app on Firefox, that doesn’t work on librewolf. And too often I have to stop my browsing because this Firefox setup is less stable and crashes once in a while causing annoyance.

Plus Chromecast. I like the ability to search for a video on the laptop and cast it to the TV.

It’s always a balance of convenience and privacy plus ethics, can’t have both.

Xbrowsersync extension will make it easy to sync bookmarks across multiple browsers on multiple platforms. It’s open source and you can self host it if you want. This for me makes it easy to combine Firefox with brave and similar. Only Vivaldi doesn’t support it.

Hope this makes your browser switching easier and cross platform choices simpler.

Turn on my Lelit Kate, go take a shower, weigh 24.2 grams of my locally medium roasted Arabica beans, grind with a finely tuned grind setting (to get 9 bars is pressure), comb a bit and give it around 8 careful taps to get a level fluffy basket. Tamp it hard, with the priority being to stay level. Put a steel mesh on top, drive it in, push the button and wait for 27 seconds as the 2 glasses get a significantly caffeinated and flavorful coffee. Add some whole milk and ice, and serve to me and my wife, with a Belgian waffle or croissant.

No. They don’t grant police that power. The judicial system has that power. Just like it has the power to imprison people.

And that is actually illegal in the EU

I wasn’t replying to anything that mentioned color.

Yes. The word “color” is mentioned exactly 0 times in the ancestor nodes above my comment.

Well OK yeah, for those you just need B&W. Color becomes useful when trying to impress. I’ve sent rent applications in color specifically because I know that the real estate agents are subjective. Some of the talks that I’ve held were helped out by coloring my notes while I was presenting. And some home crafts and activities (escape rooms with friends) were helped out several times by the color printer. Given that there isn’t a huge price gap in maintenance and initial costs, for me it was worth it.

Also, neither the OP nor the comment I was replying to mentioned anything about color. I was specifying stuff about printers in general.

Shipping labels, concert tickets, sometimes train tickets and airline tickets (some companies don’t accept them just on the phone), contracts, NDAs, tax returns, etc.

Depends on where you live and how much you interact with other companies and government agencies.

We have far more complex systems than 15 years ago. Complexity has skyrocketed because of human failures in designing optimal, elegant systems, but also because of premature optimisation, convenience, and security.

To top it all off, literacy in computers hasn’t necessarily increased for the median user.

But if 15 years ago computers had to be regularly restarted, Windows had notoriously frequent Blue Screen of Death, Linux was not really feasible as a desktop system for most people, today we’re doing much better.
