Why would it matter if the voice is “Indian?”

Lowered_lifted, 9 months ago

Nah, Indian people are not to blame. This post is just racist, white people do the same kind of scams just as often but the OP only notices the ones where the call center agent sounds like an accent they associate with Indian people.

Lowered_lifted, 9 months ago

I’m well aware of the economic factors at play driving scammers from India and Nigeria to do their thing. I am trying to bring attention to the white European scam phone banks that don’t have the same reputation, your Bulgarian and Romanian and Latvian scammers, Russian, etc. There are also scam call centers in the good ol USA. It’s definitely not just restricted to the two developing nations with a large number of English speakers and few opportunities that are blamed for it.

Please learn to read if you think I agreed. Please cope and seethe about the fact that I correctly identified this post as casually racist, ethnocentric Reddit bullshit.

Lowered_lifted, 9 months ago

I suggest you cry more, and cope harder about the fact that I correctly identified OP’s racist perspective.

Lowered_lifted, 9 months ago

You need to keep coping, especially because I seem to have triggered you deeply by pointing out your racism. Your tears amuse me. I suggest you cry more.

Lowered_lifted, 9 months ago

Weaksauce reply bro. Keep crying

Lowered_lifted, 9 months ago

Seethe and cry lol, you could have not fixed your fingers to let me know you’re triggered and racist and mad about it, but here you are lol.

Lowered_lifted, 9 months ago

That’s not true, you just don’t recognize it when they’re European, because you’re a racist. Cope about it. Bye.

Pacific Northwest is probably okay that’s why we are trying to build dual power to replace the government when it collapses and fight the Nazis who want to do the same

Lowered_lifted, 9 months ago

Do you live here? Probably okay means survivable, literally over a billion people will die if they can’t move from the unsurvivable parts

Lowered_lifted, 9 months ago

I both live there and am planning to survive, and keep as many people alive with me as I can, have fun with whatever you’re doing buddy

You’re the one who is denying reality. I will be keeping my community alive through mutual aid and I hope your selfish ass perishes lmao

They are like the anti Amazon in terms of shipping for religious reasons, given their observance of shabbos they don’t ship on Saturdays at all. Good to know that their warehouse staff has a weekend day off to rest.

We need to figure out how to retrofit those old machines to be as efficient as the new ones, and be clean and pigeon free. Then we can keep them around.

Makes sense. Very different tolerances and tooling required

Based bakery. If the sporting goods store where they bought the piece makes people not carry and they respect that then they should respect other stores that ask people not to.

Lowered_lifted, 9 months ago

That sounds delicious to be able to tell them that. I got fired from a retail job I worked for five years for telling customers about the sign on the door that asks them not to carry. Got unemployment so at least the state knew it was bullshit.

Nope, Reddit was very different back then. Lemmy feels no different than Reddit does now.

Damn that would be bad, V60 is what I am doing the most of. Any reviews I should read?

Lowered_lifted, 10 months ago

In the $60 USD range I had been looking at the Krups Precision (also EvilCorp link) a.co/d/iHgMfnp or the Cuisinart a.co/d/eqAxbD3 which are both that price and pretty well rated. I just need to upgrade from a blade grinder, it’s making all my efforts at making a consistent cup moot.

Lowered_lifted, 10 months ago

I think it will be a long time before I can afford a decent home espresso setup but thanks for the rec, it looks like a good machine.

Lowered_lifted, 10 months ago

Wow it looks really cool but they are sold out ! turingrinders.com/…/turin-sk40-single-dose-grinde… and espresso outlet won’t get them until late October espressooutlet.net/turin-sk40-single-dose-steples… where did you get yours?

Lowered_lifted, 10 months ago

The SD40 espressooutlet.net/turin-sd40-v2-single-dose-low-… looks cool too but I also don’t have an espresso machine and am planning on mostly grinding for drip coffee for my partner and V60 for me. What did you not like about your Solis? I am looking at a Solis Scala Zero for half the price right now, it seems good. EvilCorp link but I am pretty sure it’s shipped and sold by Seattle Coffee Gear which is local a.co/d/bVhSGyJ.

Lowered_lifted, 9 months ago

I think the Turin SK40/SD40 or the Solis Scala are the new contenders. The Solis is half the price but seems not as cool as the Turin, idk.

Lowered_lifted, 9 months ago

Right on. I have seen a lot of people on YouTube preferring the AliExpress grinder the Turín/Itop/MiiCoffee SD40 over Encore and the Fellow Opus but IDK about the Ode. But I also think they might be selling those grinders and maybe make a higher margin on them vs. reselling Baratza or Fellow products. I’m weirded out by AliExpress brands sometimes though because it’s easy to buy from another seller copying the original seller with an inferior product. I’m kinda thinking of maybe getting the Solis Scala Zero just because it’s cheaper at $100.

Lowered_lifted, 9 months ago

Amazon is definitely a supervillanous outfit. I hear you re: static. If you think the grind is equal then I might get the “zero static” Solis with an ion generator, or maybe order an SK40 directly off AliExpress. www.aliexpress.us/item/3256803648778389.html?spm=… to save a few bucks. My problem with the AliExpress sellers is that I’m not a hundred percent sure that it’s the same device espresso outlet is importing even though the seller uses Itop as well as Turin and then they call them MiiCoffee on Amazon, so it might be worth getting from espresso outlet just because they might have better customer service, idk.

Lowered_lifted, 9 months ago

So I ended up getting the Ode 1.0 after all. Hear me out: It was $143 on Amazon, with the same Fellow warranty and such. & Fellow has the 2.0 burrs available for $68 so with both things I am still only in it for $211. This compares unfavorably with the Turin/iTop/Xeoleo/generic Alibaba SD40 machine because those can be had for only $167 on Alibaba. It’s also more expensive than the other contender, the Solis Scala Zero, which came in at $100. I was going to go for the Opus maybe at $165 too, but then I kinda realized that I was buying the wrong kind of grinder for my brewing style.

Basically I want to brew light roast beans and bring out their flowery clear notes so I basically figure flat burrs are the way to go. Once I decided that I wanted flat burrs the Ode was the way to go. The 2 year warranty on the Fellow when registered on their site is also good, and I have had good experiences with their “VIP” customer service team. They also do longevity testing on their grinders, and it’s super easy to dial in when exhausted. I am a basic bitch essentially is why I got it. I won’t ever do espresso at home until I have the money to upgrade to a much better setup, and that would imply that I have the money to get a SK40 or DF64 for espresso anyway. I figure that because I am literally only doing filter coffee the Ode with 2.0 burrs will be good. I brewed my first cups with it, and it seems fine. I think the 2.0 burr will be a worthy upgrade when I can afford to do so next month. I also needed it quickly because partner needed grounds for their new Capresso drip machine. It seems like the most bog standard crappy plastic coffee machine, but they like the coffee it makes, so that’s a win, but it’s probably due to the new grinder.

Lowered_lifted, 9 months ago

I ended up going your way, snagged the ode for 143 and am going to upgrade to 2.0 burrs, thanks for the tip.

You could like make a simple accumulator machine out of logic gates and enter binary instructions expressed in hexadecimal into its register to program it, yeah, but it’s not capable of all the operations of a computer. But yes the first programming was just op codes, switches flipped or punch cards, there was no assembly language. But assembly language is pretty much just mnemonics for operations and registers. Like I had to write a couple C programs in school and use GNU C compiler to disassemble them into x86 assembly and see what it was doing on that level, then we “wrote” some x86 assembly by copypasting a lot of instructions but its not that hard to make something that works in like x86 assembly or like Jasmin (Java virtual machine assembly language) if it’s simple enough.

If you don’t block ads and you type things into searches about alcohol you will indeed get a lot of alcohol ads. The thing is though, I never got them as frequently when I was still drinking, or maybe never noticed them. Also I once got served ads for beer on a page about quitting booze lol, it seems pretty intentional even though it’s most likely not that targeted.

Doesn’t matter that this post is fake, this actually happened to me at my workplace. This kid who they hired was super depressed and they bullied them as fuck, this manager who made me fuckin cry made this kid kill themselves basically. Dude still works there.
