You might check out wiim stuff. They seem to be the darling of budget streaming for the moment.

Sounds like you don’t smoke cigarettes, so not that dumb!

I think they’re suggesting the BMW comment reads like an ad by responding like an ad.

I don’t think it’s actually still popular, but I’m just talking out of my ass here. I remember it made some waves a few months ago about finally having a new release after so long, and my feeling was a shitload of nostalgia brought it back into the internet spotlight, regardless of how many people are actually using it.

I gave it a spin again, purely for nostalgia. I could find no compelling reason to use it over my actual preferred player, foobar

Val!

For me, the single cup v60 is where it’s at for a great drink regardless of the cost, and you really don’t have to break the bank for a solid setup. A decent hand grinder, gooseneck kettle with a thermometer, and brewer can all be had within $200. Once you find a recipe you like and get comfy with the technique it’s pretty easy to make brews that are consistently better than most anything you’d get from a shop or cafe.

1zpresso makes nice grinders in the $100-$200 range, and I wouldn’t be very picky about the kettle unless you’re using an induction stove top. Hario v60 brewers are about $20.

If you want to put the grinding issue aside and try things before committing to tools, you might see if you have some local roaster/cafes nearby. Most that sell beans will also grind for you, and they should grind according to whatever brew method you want to try.

I ran into this exactly, but it turned out to be device compatibility. I could never find it in the play store on the (x86) Chromebook, while it always showed up as you’d expect on the arm android.

There’s also the “pavlis” recipe, or simply the potassium bicarbonate mix:

Make a concentrate of 10 grams per 100 mL, then use 1ml of concentrate per 1 liter.

Be sure to keep the concentrate in the fridge to slow down the growth of any civilizations, though. A 100ml batch lasts me about 6 weeks at roughly 4 shots a day.

Thanks, I was wondering why the s3 prefixes were used. If my memory serves, b2 is especially better on the billing rates for retrieval, so a better choice if large disaster recovery is on your mind.

Backblaze B2, which I’m pretty sure is a repackaged S3 provider, or you can just skip them and go directly to AWS S3; though, both aren’t drag and drop user friendly like onedrive or gdrive. But both work well if you invest a little time with something like rclone.

Even weirder, these are not nautilus at all, they’re octopus. Seeing the nautilus “shell” with suckers did not compute. Confusing overlap in naming.
