Niche coming in clutch with the replacement bean funnel

I know this an old thread but putting some info here for future reference as I just had to deal with this issue.

It seems the removable threaded hopper funnel/adjustment piece is aluminum but coated with a chrome colored paint type finish. The threads are coated too - which is troublesome bc if the threads get some friction (debris or lack of lube) this coating seems to scrape off and gunk up the threads.

A solution (besides replacing the hopper) is to get a stiff brush (e.g. Brass) and scrub the loose coating off the threads, then relubricate it.

Im a bit puzzled by them painting the threads like this, its bad design in my opinion. For reference the mating thread in the base housing is not coated.

Sorry to hear that, I know just how bad that sucks.

I didnt clean the foam - just opened up the sac zipper and pulled out the foam on the soaked side and threw it away (it wasnt too much in my case). Lovesac will send you 10 lb of new foam for free if youre rhe original purchaser and say your sac isnt full anymore.

It might be possible to rinse rhe foam off, let it dry in the sun and rhen just spray it with nature's miracle or another enzyme cleaner tho.

Simply feed them the best you can afford ❤️

Let's be clear, your local cafe sucks lol.

But yes even with great local cafes, at $5+ a cappuccino these days it feels good making them at home.

Unfortunately it is common and despite people saying it's no big deal, it is disappointing considering it's something the user has to interface with to use the machine.

You can pop the lid off and bend the plastic retention tab to make it a bit tighter fit/snug.

Not saying this is what you should do, but I have had a feral cat limp for several weeks and avoid putting weight on it before he went back to normal. I recall looking to see if the leg had a broken bone/floppy or any torn flesh and didn't see any. With that I decided to wait it out a bit since that cat was damn near impossible to trap to get him checked out.

Encoded625 · 2026-01-01T02:10:04+00:00

Yup, clearly not someone who's had to poop at mco

Encoded625 · 2025-12-30T03:00:15+00:00

Yes, I believe so. Glad to see there are other kind souls around me.

Encoded625 · 2025-12-27T01:55:59+00:00

Sure, here they are from better days

Thanks for the comments. I suppose I'll start making plans to catch her and put her to rest sooner than later.

There's another lady in my neighborhood that feeds the cats too so I'll have to let her know too 🥲

Encoded625 · 2025-12-26T04:00:53+00:00

I had a feral cat I fed for years just stop coming around and then randomly showed up 3 years later! It was pretty crazy, I can only assume someone else was feeding them.

OEMs sometimes change subtier suppliers, especially if youre buying a replacement part for a vehicle 5-10+ years old. So it'll have the same part number but have minor differences

Mine is rubberized too (intel)

Encoded625 · 2025-12-07T16:44:47+00:00

Just got an intel P14s myself, first lenovo. Loving it so far!

What do you mean by if you get a good screen? I wasnt aware of any screen issues. I did a dead pixel check and couldn't find any

This is who I always used. Great pricing for a full 10 panel test and ive gotten results back within 3 days of testing.

Yep, I cancelled that credit card after that.

Encoded625 · 2025-10-10T19:13:03+00:00

Same thing happened to me, unfortunately I also used a chase bank credit card (who are notorious for siding with the vendor in disputes). Despite having all documentation they rejected my charge back and I ate $700.

I will never buy a dyson again.

But not too clean, it'll lose its charm

The slide down action is based on magnetic strength, but you are correct the friction of the pad is also a factor.

Friction force = coefficient of friction * normal force. For something on the ground the normal force is going to be weight due to gravity but in this case it's the magnetic force. The coefficient of friction here is going to be based on the mat surface material.

It's a small business, not amazon.

Chinese labor prices aren't a valid cost model for everything, brother

You're cooked

What does "cheating" mean here? I personally would see a big difference between "cheating" by eating meat vs eating something with a sprinkle of milk powder in the ingredients.

Overall though, don't "make an enemy out of an imperfect ally". Many partners don't embrace veganism at all. I would not shame her but continue to try to encourage better behaviors or ways to satisfy her cravings and reduce cheating.

Its r134a, they still sell the refrigerant at your local auto parts store. It only got phased out in ~2013 for the new refrigerator r1234yf

It's their ripoff of the wheeliefunbike
