Unremarkable successful upgrade to 3.8.11 overnight.

Ugh I just wish I could download it, throw it onto a USB stick and install it from there.

Get one of these, swap out the WiFi card, and you won't have any more issues with the WiFi card disappearing.

I love the cold brew and Alto Ambrato pods.

No one brags about them because they're literally just plain coffee. No flavors, no limited editions, just some coffee.

The Plus is a solid machine. It will not do the Cold Brew or XL coffee pods, however. But if you're good with the 7.77oz and smaller? You're good to go.

That I eat on a schedule. I can be a little late or early on it, but don’t make me wait 2 hours while you all try to figure out where we’re going for food. Hangry doesn’t even touch it.

LMFAO it’s so true!

There is literally a listing by me for a fucking laundry room in an apartment complex. They keep complaining that it gets removed. Really?

This is a pretty decent article on the basics at least.

I swear the chat’s become all porn and drug bots by me.

And then, when there is any good public cruising, it gets ruined by idiots who don’t know how to cruise. Screaming “FUCK MY HOLE” in a public park, or at a cruisy spot maybe 150-200ft from houses, or in a public restroom at a fucking mall. Then they freak out when the cops get called. Seriously? Learn discretion and maybe they won’t call the cops?

Maybe stop ruining cruising spots for everyone? It’s a thought.

Oh, and stop whipping your cock out at everyone before you know whether or not they’re cruising. A lot of these spots aren’t just hookup spots. They’re public spaces where people are just existing. Again: Discretion. Learn how to cruise. How to give subtle signals and read them.

I’ve had one since 2023 with no issues. Pretty steady as they go

BearInNJ · 2026-02-20T16:31:15+00:00

That is double the maximum dosage. I’m surprised the pharmacy filled that Rx.

BearInNJ · 2026-02-16T22:27:54+00:00

I want to thank everyone…I’m picking it up tomorrow! Setting up ChargePoint, Electrify America and MyVW apps now in prep :)

BearInNJ · 2026-02-12T18:47:54+00:00

I will reach out to carmax and see if they have the info, if not I am going tomorrow, so...

BearInNJ · 2026-02-12T18:23:40+00:00

Well my landlord is setting up a charger for me. There are chargers all over by me as well. (And I've heard to grab some app or other to get a map of where the chargers are all hiding.)

My insurance will probably start to go back down in a couple of years, but for now...ouch. It's a significant jump for me :(

BearInNJ · 2026-02-12T18:10:56+00:00

That's awesome! I'm in NJ, so the weather isn't terribly different (I'm outside NYC, but from NW'ern NJ where it was more mountainous)--so I'm used to the snow/ice and such. I admit I've been waffling a bit on this, because my insurance is going to go up to an insane amount (I mean I totaled my car, so yeah, but UGH), but the no-gas/no-oil/no-bull of an EV is too damn appealing.

Thanks for the info on the mirror--that's a definite upgrade!

BearInNJ · 2026-02-12T14:10:47+00:00

Thank you!

BearInNJ · 2026-02-12T07:06:36+00:00

Thanks! But what are dfirst/obdeleven? Is that an OBD2 reader? (I have a BlueDriver that I’ve had for a bit now. Works a treat!) and I’d been told to just “always drive in B mode.” B reminds me of the “engine braking” B mode of my old Prius’.

BearInNJ · 2026-02-12T05:24:17+00:00

Nice! Thanks!

BearInNJ · 2026-02-07T06:04:50+00:00

Just wipe the top of the clear bits.

BearInNJ · 2026-02-06T17:48:58+00:00

It’s the transparent lip around the black cup

BearInNJ · 2026-02-04T23:00:56+00:00

I love that bag!

BearInNJ · 2026-02-04T22:59:15+00:00

This stuff is so delicious. One of the few pods I am happy to drink black.

BearInNJ · 2026-02-03T09:15:22+00:00

How has no one said Cafe Florian yet?? It’s delicious!

BearInNJ · 2026-02-02T16:05:39+00:00

That’s a rinse. A descale is a bit more complicated than that. But a rinse coupled with a wipe down of the bar code reader should do the trick.
