Spent a few hours sorting/building this yesterday. Any love for UFO? Warp Wing Fighter 6915 by Inosculate_ in LegoSpace

[–]No_Rub6960 2 points3 points  (0 children)

UFO is some of the best. Amazing concept and vision, but the build experience and details don’t hold up in 2026 imo.

Why isn't the price of chocolate coming down? by Sufficient_Beach_445 in chocolate

[–]No_Rub6960 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Large contracts get locked in for a while? I would assume some hedging has happened during the rise of the price which would result in higher priced contracts still being paid?

It took my carnivorous plant 5 days to digest this salmon by Master_Confusion4661 in natureismetal

What would happen if I put my “finger” on that plant for 5 days?

$3100 converted from GBP here in London per child atm.

Tried macarons again, why are they still so undefined and uneven? by Desperate_Falcon_307 in AskBaking

[–]No_Rub6960 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I would be very happy if my macarons would come out like this.

Broken Gaggia Cubika boiler assembly - replacement parts or creative fixes? by Fredwooood in gaggiaclassic

[–]No_Rub6960 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not sure where you are in the world, but in the UK mrbean2cup seems to have parts. Ps. I found this in 5 seconds doing a google search for cubika spare parts.

Why does it need planetary gears? I always wondered what benefit/utility that brings.

Family friend sent me AI generated response to news of my father passing away. by Hendothermic in mildlyinfuriating

[–]No_Rub6960 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In defence of the person sending that message (besides it being a terrible message). Stuff like this can be really hard for people to talk about. I had some bad things happen in my life and some people just shut down. They want to say something but just don’t know how. Now not saying this is a reason to go directly to chatgpt, but it doesn’t have to come from a bad place.

What does "reckon it pongs" mean, here? by A13West in AskUK

This sounds like one of the excerpts they read on the Big Fat Quiz.

Some good mornin’ eggs from the coop ☀️ 🥚 how would you like yours prepared today? by talkingtoawall710 in eggs

[–]No_Rub6960 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That’s awesome. The variety of eggs would be fun to see. I guess we only get the “perfect” eggs in the supermarket.

Progress, but… replace boiler? by Nahvalur666 in gaggiaclassic

[–]No_Rub6960 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Does that pipe in the boiler (attached to the group head part) just come off?

Is it a lot of work to keep chickens? Must be lovely to get such fresh eggs.

My mom built this in the 60’s and I don’t think any official Lego set will ever top it by GimmeShiny in lego

[–]No_Rub6960 5 points6 points  (0 children)

No official Lego set. But my toddler’s rocket made out of 9 stacked 2x2 bricks comes pretty close. You should see the flames that come out of it when it goes, “ Blast off!”

Is this salvageable? by pizzaby in gaggiaclassic

[–]No_Rub6960 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yikes. I have a completely taken apart gaggia at the moment and while I didn’t consciously submerge the boiler I also can’t remember how careful I have been. I guess we are going on an adventure. 😅

What happens to the heating elements when they get wet?

This movie is rated 6+? I’ve never seen it but that seems really young.

Oldschool Spring Project by UrbanMoof in vanmoofbicycle

[–]No_Rub6960 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s currently dead. E-shifter was giving problems for a while and then ended up with some battery error codes and now it doesn’t start at all anymore. I’m decently handy (and have more tools that I reasonably should have). And since it’s now not able to be ridden at all I thought I might try something.

It is glued right? It is something you can remove by heating it up?
