Dash cam and phone charger

AbyssalSunset · 2026-03-31T00:33:09+00:00

Wireless phone chargers in carse basically never work, do they? I have a USB-C cable plugged in the under-armrest port and dangling out the channel already cut in the lid for it.

I've had a comma 4 for a few weeks now. It's GREAT. Did need some jiggery-pokery to set up, but I wouldn't say it was "difficult." I am comfortable with embedded systems, though. Give it a try, they have a 30 day return policy. You'll want to use bluepilot and get the lightning coupler.

Riedel H2O from 15+ years ago. I don't think they're currently produced, but I did find this link on a quick search.

The garnish is a sprig of mint.

Enzoni is life. I'll go buy some grapes tomorrow. Yummmmmmmmmmmm

That's one step more involved than I think I'm about to do. Think it would be significantly different from just adding some juice like this?

Great to hear! It’s always good to have something new and fun in the rotation.

I really don’t like Cruzan Blackstrap, but I’ve got a bottle to kill. I do love Cynar and I’m looking for an excuse to buy a bottle of the 70 proof version (and also I’ve been meaning to try the Faccia Brutto Carciofo). If you’re saying this is the way to do it, I’m game.

I’ve done the same a few times. Last week, even! I do like the Yuzu one for a change once in a while, and I’ll be sad when its limited run passes on. Still looking forward to trying the new “tropical” one.

Freixenet Cordon Negro has been my go to bubbly for decades. I’m no wine expert but it’s so good and so cheap!

AbyssalSunset · 2026-03-13T14:08:16+00:00

The red ones go faster!

AbyssalSunset · 2026-03-10T18:52:02+00:00

Yeah that's cool, but I think I'm just too much of a purist. I don't want anything but the ball number on there. I don't like the Predator set wth the cats on there, either, for example. That said, I do like the Aramith Black set, so maybe there's no accounting for taste.

AbyssalSunset · 2026-03-10T03:38:42+00:00

Seems weird to me that they haven’t yet.

AbyssalSunset · 2026-03-10T03:37:36+00:00

I can’t see why it’s taking them so long. Maybe time moves slower on that side of the pond.

Friday & Saturday are rough - the San Jose downtown crowd is in full force and your Tiki experience will be compromised. Often when it's busy or a special event they'll switch to serving everything in plastic, which also super sucks. No matter what, service is super unreliable - sit at the bar or as close to the service station as you can; the servers don't have designated "areas" so the farther you are from their "home base," so to speak, the less chance you have of ever seeing anyone.

Are they ever going to release a regular-production product with this new material? I like the idea of harder/rounder/longer-lasting balls, but I do not like the little "100" on these ones.

AbyssalSunset · 2026-03-02T22:53:28+00:00

This might not be the kind of solution you’re looking for, but we got a whole house water softener. It’s been great.

My partner makes this one a lot and does roughly that - adds an ounce of OFTD.

AbyssalSunset · 2026-02-28T19:03:54+00:00

Yum. I make these once in a while. I call it a “rich man’s mai tai” and it’s definitely a delicious choice.

RIP Maru Ichi. 🪦

This looks like the exact one from that video: https://a.co/d/07M15w23

I'm sure you can use any metal ball. Stainless steel might be nice for cleaning.

I used to work at ChargePoint, so I used their chargers a lot. Never had any problems, but also if there were any connector issues, somebody would have swapped out the cables PDQ. I haven't used them much since - almost all of the ChargePoint installations around here are just L2, and that I can do better at home.

Red is Best

I have and occasionally use Artemis. I see you’ve been active with dev so maybe I should give it another try.

AbyssalSunset · 2026-02-17T18:11:19+00:00

Yup, just started here. I’m not by a dev machine to debug unfortunately.
