That’s awesome. You could probably run a proper kiln in place of your oven if you felt like it.

I agree, it would be great if we had more varied and tailored options.

If someone has been involuntarily committed it means they’ve already shown an intention to harm themselves or others. So the goal is not to stop them from feeling bad but to physically prevent them from doing harm.

They might be, food photography is weird

That’s how I like to see us too, but I’ve definitely met some Z hating millennials.

I met a fellow “old millennial” recently who said “we’re the last generation to be raised right”. I disagree, but hearing it from a guy my age really cemented me in old man status.

Then he told me he had 3 kids. Who’s responsible for raising that generation!? Lol.

The creamers and syrups are very weird. Some people here are passionate about them too. It’s always a mixed bag when someone says they’re picky about their coffee.

My go-to is a big pour over, maybe 15g of coffee and 500mL of water. Of course, being American, I measure everything with plastic spoons from McDonalds instead of a scale. I like espresso too, but I’m not big on lattes. Generally no cream, sugar, or anything added.

On the other end of the spectrum is diner coffee. Usually strong but stale. It’s not my favorite but it has a special place in my heart.

If you ever do meet an American coffee snob ask them what they like. We have a whole variety of them.

Wouldn’t you know it, I’ve been all over Europe and they don’t make it quite like I do at home either.

So what’s this Australian secret coffee? If you don’t tell me I know another Australian I can press.

We do have different types of coffee, but you might have to go to a specialty shop to get it like you do at home. If you’re talking about regular restaurants it’s probably good advice.

There are bikes out there with driven front wheels. Jeep and Hummer have even released bikes under their brands with this design. It has a shaft that travels through the downtube to the front wheel.

This is not a design that is taken seriously in performance biking, at least as far as I know. Maybe there’s a low speed rock crawling group that I’m unfamiliar with. But if you’re looking for something unique that can crawl up tough terrain, you might enjoy it.

I’ll leave the serious mountain bike recommendations to everyone else. There are plenty of good ones here already.

We crave more of the things we love, but it almost never lives up to our expectations.

It shouldn’t, the hotspot is well below eye level unless you’re on a recumbent bike. If I ever run into another rider at night I’ll let you know.

I should add that it’s on maximum brightness for the photo (5A); I don’t usually have it that bright to ride.

I agree! And I like to think that, as he looked over his several bottles worth of dressing in a beverage cup, he did learn to consider his words more carefully.

But I didn’t mind the whole experience. It’s not my dressing and it made for a pretty funny story.

It certainly creates an incentive to act in ways that please the customer at the expense of the business. But the restaurant controls your access to the customer, so it’s best to tread lightly.

It’s been a long time, but I used to work at a corporate dining place that did a lot of take out business. I once had a man ask for “as much thousand island dressing as possible”.

I was going to just give him two portions, but my coworker convinced me to fill a large soda cup instead. Why not? We worked for tips after all.

The customer was pretty bewildered. He clearly didn’t really want that much dressing.

Losing a friend is so hard. It affected me in ways I never expected. Family is easier in some ways.

The kind people are out there, but they’re harder to see sometimes, especially on the internet. Hang in there, and be kind to yourself.

Lol, that’s why I’m here too. I’ve had enough.

Can’t go wrong with 519A. 5700K dedomed would be just above 4000K if you’re looking for nicer tint.

I think you might have to get more engagement before a BST thread really takes off. Kind of a chicken or the egg thing.

I’d love to see build/mod threads though.

Thanks! I printed it at home. I haven’t made the model public because I don’t think guy I took the crab model from wanted it used like this.

I just mashed up other people’s models in blender, so I don’t want to take credit for that sweet crab. But yeah it is my model.
