  • French press is basically the same work as a drip machine, but a different shape. You just heat the water seperately and then pour it and the coffee into the French press, let it sit, press the plunger down, and pour. Actually takes slightly less time than any cheap dropper I’ve used and runs 0 risk of burning the coffee (drip machines like to put heating elements into their bases to keep the pot hot, this can burn the coffee and ruin the flavor, French presses cannot burn coffee because they cannot add heat)

    Espresso is finely ground coffee that uses steam pressure to brew (thus why espresso machines are fucking expensive, my mr coffee unit was 80 buck), it’s an involved process (worth learning gif you’ve got 20m to make a cup of coffee every time) but very good if you use beans you like AND you like your coffee flavor strong




  • Because they found it interesting and wanted to discuss it with people?

    Just because it’s low priority doesn’t mean it lacks any interest, we can exist between extremes

    Most people would roll their eyes and move on

    Quite famously 1% of the community are posters, after all. Who the fuck cares what a normal person would post? OP wanted to

    and yet it’s being upvoted because “hooray tribalism” over something as asinine as OS (really kernel) choice.

    Lol, it’s being upvoted because most of us recognize the sub and it’s pathetic mod and are laughing at being reminded of them, if the comments are anything to go by





  • I said “like it’s rape or something” - I didn’t say you’re saying it’s “tantamount to rape”

    ESL or just pretending like you don’t know those are the same thing?

    I’m just talking about the language people use like they’re being personally violated by snaps.

    Theyre literally just using the words to describe what is happening, why are you being weird about it?

    Getting hardcore incel vibes from your attitude, might wanna work on that



  • They want you to consume only from them and only what they approve of

    Not just that, I remember when app stores were new and people clamoured to be on them AND those app makers would often move to ONLY being on the app store, with anything downloaded off-store being a scam

    So a lot of people grew up to use these devices at a time where downloading something off the web was more likely than not to be malware, giving them the ick on the idea as a whole

    Fuck, I’m from the time a bit before all of that and even I have a goddamn hard time downloading shit that’s available off-store on someone’s website out of pure paranoia from those days









  • I assume the route calculations happen on device as they work in offline mode, but that doesn’t explain sending me the objectively slower way when it knows what the traffic is like

    Also my alternate route passes more businesses, meaning it’s not some “well advertise to him” bullshit

    I turned OFF the “prefer eco routed” setting thinking it might be that, but no dice


  • Yeah, about 2 months ago I noticed it no longer recommending a slightly alternate route on my way to work that lets me bypass a potentially 20-minute red light (bad light timing)

    If I turn and do it myself it goes “oh shit you right” and gives me an updated ETA and shows the route, but it WONT show the expected slowdown anymore and WONT even suggest the alternate route
