I can’t come up with any reason why not for most people. The Wifi in that corner of the kitchen is unbelievable atrocious so I wouldn’t trust the smart plug to stay connected reliably.
I do like the grinder a lot. This is the first “serious” grinder that we have had. Before this we usually bought pre-ground or used or ancient bladed grinder. I thought that there wouldn’t really be that noticeable of a difference between fresh ground coffee and pre-ground but BOY was I wrong. Also having the ability to dial in the grind size for your brew method and routine makes a significant difference. Our cold brew and moke pot showed the biggest improvement after getting this grinder.
I ended up choosing this one for a couple of reasons. One was that Seattle Coffee Gear had one of these in open box with a pretty significant discount and the other was because of the type of coffee that we drink. We vary between Cold Brew, AeroPress, pour over, and occasionally a moka pot. This grinder seems to cover all these basis very well. As far as I can tell the grind consistency is pretty good through the testing that I have done.
There are a couple of things I don’t like from a functionality standpoint. The first was the switch which I have remedied. The second is the catch box for the coffee. It’s kind of terribly designed and if you don’t mist your coffee with some water then you end up with chaff(?) being thrown outside of the catch container. Also because its a ton of angles and corners its kind of a pain in the butt to clean. The hopper also doesn’t seem quite steep enough for the beans to naturally so nearly every time I grind I end up poking some stray beans or a blockage into the grinder. Lastly is the grind adjuster. It does not have any stops on it what so ever so if you don’t set a routine to place the dial in the exact same place whenever you are done it can be easy to forget where it has been set. I have accidentally ground coffee at cold-brew setting instead of moka pot a couple of times.
We have yet to splurge on an espresso machine so i wouldn’t be able to speak to whether or not the finest grind would be suitable for that.
That is my understanding! The lowest grind setting on this is easily fine enough for a moka pot. I do not have any espresso experience to say whether or not it would be passable for an espresso machine.
The radius is the size of the sphere as measured from the center of the explosion.
Maybe this analogy helps.
You throw a ball at a wall and it bounces back towards you. If the ball reaches you or passes you then you die.
You can throw a ball (the fireball) 150ft. At the end of your throw it hits a wall (center of explosion). The ball bounces back towards you 92.832ft (explosion radius/edge of explosion). The ball is now 57.168 ft away from you. Ball did not reach you therefore you live.
The slight DM pedant in me is torn about how you chose to interpret the size of the sphere.
There is absolutely no reason to not use volume as the thing being modified by the item EXCEPT as far as I am aware the RAW is that the fireball is measured by its radius.
By that reasoning the new fireball should have a radius of 200 ft. Which is obscenely large and also puts the caster within the blast radius.
If I remember correctly in older editions the fireball would also fill up rooms until it’s full VOLUME was achieved not necessarily just it’s radius.
Meaning a 20ft radius fireball would fill a 5ft x 5ft hallway/tunnel (weird size I know… easy math) for 1,340ft and the new 200ft radius (33,510,300 ft^3) fireball would fill the same hallway for… 1,340,412 FEET OR JUST SHORT OF 254 MILES OF TUNNEL!
If my players were stupid enough cat fireball on a magic enhancing object, personally, I’m using the later object and also multiplying the damage by 100.
Their new party can start by investigating the massive village size crater recently discovered by the locals.
I am exercising extreme control to not create a couple of dozen extra accounts across multiple instances to create an apparent wave of support for your dicision to include Mushishi because #OMG MUSHISHI IS THE GOAT.
My wife once described it as a “Warm hug and a heavy sigh during a tough season of your life.”
Can be super melancholy at times and emotionally challenging but as soon as you either catch your breath / dry your tears / re-evaluate your life / heavy sigh a couple dozen time / sit in the dark in complete silence (episode dependent you immediately want to dive into the next episode. Even if you are unsure why.
Music: Beautiful Story: Beautiful Art: Beautiful
If you are looking for an anime that will make you think, feel, and wonder, then Mushishi is the one for you. It is a rare gem that deserves to be watched by anyone who appreciates the beauty and complexity of life. Mushishi is not just an anime, it is an experience.
Caveat: Mushishi may not be for everyone. Some people may find it too slow-paced, episodic, lacking in action or prefer more character development or continuity between episodes. Valid criticisms all, but I think they are outweighed by the strengths of the anime. Mushishi is not meant to be a typical show with a linear plot or flashy attention grabbing sequences.
It is meant to be a slice of life with a touch of magic. It is meant to be enjoyed at your own pace and with an open mind. If you can appreciate that, then you will love Mushishi as much as I do.
Excellent series. I’ve listened to it on audio books a couple of times and am currently going through it again with my wife. It’s taking forever though because she only listens in 30 minute chunks or so.
Gore Bernelli (sp?) is possibly my favorite character in literature.
It took me way to long to figure out you were talking a out the Tau. I have never heard them described like that and will never be able to look at them the same again.
The one way that I have come up with to describe a potential reason for the way the story is portrayed is this:
The ENTIRE series is from the perspective of a die hard semi-introverted software engineer and HUGE NERD who has this deep-seated need of just wanting to help and make things better.
Taking that into account everything written kind of states to make sense.
I love the series and it goes to some VERY interesting places.
There is one warning to give. At a certain point the book starts to suffer from scale creep. The characters are already able to do “X” so we need an enemy that can do “X+Y+Z” so now character learns to do "X+Y+Z TIME 10²“. At a certain point it’s best to just stop worrying about the explanations and just enjoy the story.
So I’ve switched to lemmy since the reddit meltdown started, experienced quite some withdrawal symptoms, occasionally turned back to reddit, more often logged out than logged in. Now I am merely using Lemmy occasionally and by far not as often as I used reddit before. No more doom scrolling....
I listen to an absolutely absurd amounts of different artists. A large portion of them simply don’t have albums available for purchase and if they did… I would actually go broke buying all the stuff I listen to.
Every single day I type in a Combo of 2 random letters and numbers into spotify and listen to the first artist I don’t recognize.
It really sucks that Spotify doesn’t pay the artists anything reasonable but I haven’t found an alternative that allows me to consume as much different music as I currently do.
This isn’t even including the podcasts and audio books into the equation.
Or at least less so than Reddit. It’s good, but, I can’t put my finger on it. Even when the content is good, the servers are up, and I’m getting notifications responding to comments, it’s never come to me doomscrolling for hours....
The big difference for me it’s the overall lack of comment interaction on posts here. I was addicted to reddit not because of the content but because of the community interaction below the content.
Side note: Just now my phone keyboard did NOT autocorrect to reddit. It appears I have finally doesn’t enough fine away from their for my phone to recognize it.
When I built this rack, it was perfectly square, the saddles were all tight, and it didn’t move at all. 3 months later, I guess the pressure-treated wood has shrunk and it’s sagging....
As others have pointed out, there is no bracing against the direction the weight is pulling the stand. Sacrificing a foot or two at the bottom to make room for bracing would improve the strength immensely.
You could also extend the base to the rear by 8-12" and adding cables from the base to the top in tension. this would provide at least some force to counter the weight of the kayaks/canoes.
The other thing to notice is that you only have a single bolt at your connection points. One bolt effectively acts like a pivot point. It’s only providing rotational resistance in one direction.
You can either do some joinery to help strengthen the connections (admittedly overkill) or use two fasteners and glue in place of a single bolt.
