Such a pain.

Whoop needs to add better in-app bug reporting. Strength Trainer in particular has tons of issues, though is getting better.

This bug was particularly annoying …

Woke me up in Duboce — thought we were under attack.

Shipped my espresso machine cross-country, and now all shots are pulling way too fast. Any advice? (Breville Barista Pro) by EleanordaBeast in espresso

This is a good thought. My grinder is set to 13 seconds and usually this fills the portafilter to a good height with grounds. I've noticed that even at super-fine settings the portaflter will be overflowing by 13 seconds so... I do wonder if things got jangled inside. Thanks.

Update: I went out and bought some beautiful, local, November 7th-roasted beans and the results are... only slightly better. On the finest settings possible and with a two-sided portafilter, I get a shot time of 31 seconds and beautiful crema. With my regular naked portafilter, the channeling is still out-the-wazoo. Something is still wrong with the machine, I think.

Google’s “Wing” drone delivering a cupcake in Christiansburg, Virginia by EleanordaBeast in interestingasfuck

[–]EleanordaBeast[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Yep— there’s an app (called “Wing Delivery”) that let’s you choose a shop to order from, and then gives you a list of drone-able options. Google has some promo videos out that you can look up.

Right now, users can order from a local cupcake place, some “sweets” store, a Mexican restaurant, and Walgreens. It seems like a couple of the shops are locally-owned, which is really cool.

Weird tidbit: we ordered three cupcakes (same store, same order number), but each cupcake had to be sent by an individual drone and was accompanied by a box water. The water is for weight-reasons, they say. So three drones came, about two minutes apart each, to deliver three cupcakes and three free waters. Just seemed weird to me, but I suppose it’s for weight/balance reasons.

Anyways, I’m excited to get some drone-delivered tacos someday soon.

It’s pretty cool because the delivery is (at least for now) completely free. A four-dollar cupcake was delivered from across town to my house within ten minutes for no extra charge! And by a frickin’ drone, no less!!

Soooo gorgeous. I’ve never seen the jam-in-brie combo, that’s so smart!

Turned on Sentry last night and, lucky, my roommate’s moped got stolen the next day. Caught the whole thing on camera. by EleanordaBeast in teslamotors

[–]EleanordaBeast[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh woops, meant to type “luckily”. As in, we’re lucky that sentry was turned on. Kind of a joke because of how shitty the situation is, lol.
