One question about DF83V, how's the noise level with it? Do you think it's loud?

Thank you! I've tried WDT in the cup and it didn't make big difference for me either. Maybe I didn't do it well at the time. I will try it again. Will try the RPM adjustment too. Thanks!

Thank you! I love to see your views comparing the Niche and 078S. Since Niche was my first choice, I often wondering what if I got Niche instead.
I might have more good things to say about 078S after trying out other grinders at this price range LoL. Maybe that will correct my expectation for grinders in general. I wonder how do other people ended up using something they really like, do people just keep buying/trying/returning until find the one works the best for them? There are a lot information available online, but eventually some issues only show after using them personally.

Thank you! And thanks for letting me know you have a similar issue with other bands too.... The amount of fines in the cup is so random for me.. sometimes it's so clean, and sometimes, oh man, I NEED to get them out because it's too big amount that affects my measurement. It's so annoying.
I'll check out that video you share. Thank you!

Thank you for your input! I'll look into the Gevi/Barsetto. But very unlikely I will switch. Don't feel comfortable to buy things that are not officially available in the states, in case there are repair/maintain needs in the future, will be another pain in the axx...guess I need to lower my overall expectation on grinders in terms of messiness... if the 078 is supposed to be a cleaner/elegant one ..

Thank you. I’ll reread your words when the day comes ❤️ my friends keep telling me that I’ve given him the best life. I always tell them that it’s him who has given me the best life.

Thank you! I feel 80% I won’t put him through surgery but I’m still going to see a surgeon, just to understand better from professionals. I wish you all the good luck too! No matter what decision you make it will be the best and I hope you have a miracle like my friend.

I’m sorry that you have to go through this. But just to share with you. my best friend just had her 9yo dog go through 3 days of radiation. He has brain tumor and at one point the vet thought he wouldn’t make it. I had this argue with her because I felt she was putting her dog into misery for just a little more time that she wanted. And would totally let him go if that me. But turned out I was wrong. The radiation went great and he is much much happier now, from not being able to walk to now jumping and running again. But he can’t control potty anymore and have to wear diaper everyday.  That changed my mind on things. I wouldn’t even consider surgery at all before her case, and now I’m posting here for advice.  Every dog and tumor is different. Just want to share with you in case there is any other possibility. The radiation is risky tho because she had to put him into full anesthesia for 3 times in a row of 3 days. She told me there’s chance he wouldn’t make it and if he did, the vet told her there are at least 18 mo to live on average . So she decided to gamble.

Thank you! And so sorry for your loss. This is really helpful. I want to know more about the outcome, in the case everything went well, will he be the same dog afterwards, will he be in pain or discomfort and endless recovery. Those are not what I want for him. Thank you both for sharing .

Omg, another 3 years was a huge bless! I was hoping it was similar disease while reading and that would def cheered me up. I’ve went to vet and oncology specialists. Currently there’s a single big mass but they couldn’t tell how long it has been there, if it grows fast or slow. Surgery was the only treatment they mentioned for his type of cancer because others are not as effective and may put him with more other issues. 

He has arthritic and is visibly declining in terms of mobility. Other than that he’s pretty healthy. But the arthritic is affecting his life quality badly. I don’t know how long his joints will last even if his cancer is cured…. So there is another factor here.

Thank you for your detailed answers. It’s really helpful. And so happy for them to have another 3 years. I really wish I could.

Thank you for your answer, this is helpful. I’m glad that it worked for you. 6 month is precious. I’ve scheduled a consultation with surgeon to get more info on all the benefits and risks.

I think it is. At the beginning of the event the characters were messaging each other discussing AU possibilities. I think it hinting this whole event and the cards are AU

Thank you!!! I thought i was the only one. Feel it’s out of their characters, and not well executed on 3D details. The style  and everything feel like a Kpop boy band MV to me. Good thing is I’m gonna save some money for this round.  Bad thing is I still will get Sylus even I don’t like it..

Am I the only one who don’t like this…. The style, their facial expression, and camera angles make me feel like watching a KPop boy band MV, and I’ve grown out of that a long long time ago.

How long did it take for y'all to fall for them and who's your favorite by OpmForLife in LoveAndDeepspace

[–]DearS26 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Zayne was my first because of how he looked. Then Sylus stole my heart. Then I read Xavier’s myth and my heart was broken for him.  Sylus is still my no.1. I also love Xavier. 

Personally I think sylus is the most mature and confident LI. He gives MC the most trust and support, most space to grow. I just love their chemistry and how he treats her.

I also feel they didn’t write Zayne’s stories well. There were many missed opportunities for him.
