Yup. The ease of use for my wife and us being able to check our own funds real time has made it invaluable. I’m sure! there ways i could do it myself but she’s gotta be able to use it.

I have had a tendency since my earliest days on social media where I will get halfway or more through a response, and end up just cancelling it. Sometimes I feel like I’m just being to over the top with snark or otherwise don’t want to be that kind of person, but a lot of the time I’ll decide I just really don’t care...
Still crazy to me that somehow this will decide our next president. Listening to people explain ( and they are unfortunately 100% correct ,) how this will make people vote a certain way is so batshit crazy to me. Blame before the solution simply means more people are going to die for no reason.
So espresso is very picky about measurements. 18g of beans into your grinder ideally yields 18g out. Not getting that amount of ground coffee out of the grinder and hence into your portafilter will heavily influence the taste.
Honestly, is incredibly easy to spritz them when measuring, throw em in the grinder and be done.
I’ve never really read much on the actual effects of water on the coffee flavor itself, just the wonderful lack of static. I don’t screw with espresso as I’m at my limit for expensive hobbies. I have in the past and a half gram will make a noticable difference in a shot. Enough to ruin it? Completely subjective.
I’ve never not had a car payment. I have put 500 toward a payment or I’ve put it in a high interest savings account since i was 19. I’ve gotten incredibly lucky with cars that have never blown up. Every 5 years i buy a new car with cash. I’m 41 and for the first time ever I’m choosing not to buy a new car. I currently have a 2018 WRX limited that’s stock with 65k miles. I desperately want a Corolla GR but the price and interest rate makes it just a stupid decision. I’ve been quoted 25k for my WRX (it’s pristine, like not even a swirl, I’m ocd with my detailing) and it’s not even half the price of a base GR here because of the dealer markups ( if they are ever in stock ).

LOTO or lock out, tag out is a safety practice of physical locking out any and all energy sources attached to a piece of equipment. Gravity, electrical, chemical, potential, pneumatic, hydraulic.

I literally can’t do half of what I want to do online efficiently or in a timely manner because I can barely crack 10 up. I do video work on the side.

Look up MNK/Mallinkrodt aka SpecGX. Just filed for bankruptcy right after emerging from bankruptcy in order to shed the original agreement of future products in lieu of fines or some such shit. Opioid manufacturer double bankruptcy.
