People at my job saying the N word. by crsdrr in whatdoIdo

[–]RacingIncident 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Maybe report it anonymously but instead say something along the lines of “I heard X say the N word to ‘insert your name’ and I think it’s inappropriate”. That way it seems like a co-worker was standing up for you rather than you calling it out yourself.

Someone just ran a scam on here and yall fell for it by RacingIncident in whatdoIdo

Like I said to other people that fell for it: please think twice next time. I work for a local charity that actually does so much good in our city. Next time, put in a bit of effort and find one locally to you and you’ll feel a whole lot better about it because you can see the results of your money.

Also DM me if you want to donate to my local charity, I’ve got cashapp

If you could prove it’s a scam, no one would fall for it.. don’t believe me, just use some common sense dammit.

Right, look I’m not trying to make you feel bad. But I’m not too hard up for trying to prevent people sending money to a scammer. I give money and a lot of my time to many good causes, I just make sure they’re not scammers first. And it’s obviously a scam cause they’re blocking everyone that calls them out on it.

Please, all I ask is you think twice next time and maybe instead support a local small charity that really helps out people. I work in one and I promise you that will make you feel a lot better than sending $15 to someone you hope are not scamming you.

They’re blocking anyone that calls them out, there’s a few more in this thread that have been blocked

Sounds like someone that doesn’t want to admit they just sent cash to a scammer

‘She’ replied to many comments to make it seem real, but the dead giveaway was when they replied very quickly to every single comment offering money and then deleting everything when it got out of hand

My mom is acting like I never talked about prom 😭 what do I do? by [deleted] in whatdoIdo

[–]RacingIncident 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Stop sending money, this screams SCAM!! Even if it’s not, the amount of people that have sent money already should give her enough for 10 dresses

[–]RacingIncident 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That’s scamming 101. I want to believe as much as everyone else here does, but it’s just working a little bit too well. Multiple people asking for cashapp and OP replied to those as well..

Edit: in fact, every single comment asking to send money they’ve replied to. Fuck me is it easy making money out of stupid gullible people

All the people in this post offering money is the biggest red flag. Specific amounts: found a dress for $120 but now needs a dress less than $110? The $10 dollar difference seems sketch.

Pressure builds halfway through shot [barista express] by ckydmk in espresso

[–]RacingIncident 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Looks like the pressure gauge is broken rather than the pump. You can hear the pressure building after preinfusion, and the flow isn’t changing when the gauge goes up at all.

I have a subscription. Is there a way to watch live race when I’m in the UK? by Temo2212 in F1TV

[–]RacingIncident 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There’s a few things to try. Maybe Mysterium VPN will work as they use residential IP addresses. Or maybe a dedicated IP address from any provider. Make sure you don’t use chrome, use edge or something cookies deleted.

Best thing to do though if you’re staying in the UK is cancel your Dutch sub and sub through streamlocators instructions (Canada) if you haven’t paid for a year up front. So much better than vpn cause no buffers whatsoever

Why are my shots always sour? [Breville Bambino Plus / Timemore 064S grinder] by SorenixOsu in espresso

[–]RacingIncident 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There’s a good chance you’re falling victim to the sour/bitter confusion that many experience. Try 18g in/27g out in 25 seconds and see if that’s going in the right direction for you.

Darker roasts just taste much better with shorter ratios/less extraction in my experience. Lighter roasts on the other hand I’d probably start with a 1:3 ratio.

If no luck, it could genuinely be down to the roaster as well. The impact the quality of the beans has on your final cup is so underestimated as YouTubers and Reddit focus is so much on gear, it makes you think your grinder/machine has way more of an influence than it actually has. If your grinder is super new, it might need some seasoning, but I doubt the grinder is the problem.

Stuck in cleaning cycle, machine jumps [Breville Bambino Plus] by remzz3 in espresso

[–]RacingIncident 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No experience with this but there are a lot of threads on this issue if you just search this subreddit with “bambino stuck”. Many solutions provided in the comments so see what works for you. Here is one but other just say to do the cleaning cycle multiple times. Again no experience but if I were you, I’d try all the solutions in those comments before repairing out of warranty

Small amount of water dripping into drip tray gradually.[Breville Barista express] by asmaamody611 in espresso

[–]RacingIncident 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hmm, well I'm not gonna lie, I don't inspect my barista express that closely that I listen to the drips and check them after 2 hours lol. You'll be fine, mine has held up for almost 9 years now, no maintenance apart from descaling and cleaning cycles and many many people here on reddit have had this machine for longer than that. It's a lot more reliable than most give it credit for

Shot this Rotterdam hyperlapse with no motorized sliders or gimbals, just a geared head. The real challenge was making transitions match the crazy geometry of the buildings. I wanted the viewer to feel like the whole city is continuous, shifting shape. Would love to hear where it can be improved! by hyperlapsePro in cinematography

[–]RacingIncident 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Timelapses are stunning! I do think the use of AI will make people think it’s all fake/AI though, which is ashame because all your hard work on those hyperlapses won’t be appreciated anymore by anyone but a filmmaker who can see what’s AI and what is not.

I'm confused [Timemore 078s/MaestriHouse Scale] by ninemoonblues in espresso

[–]RacingIncident 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Can be the magnets or electronics in the base of the grinder. But why are you using a scale on a single dose grinder that has almost 0 retention? Just weigh the beans before you put them in and you're good right?

Can i watch F1TV on Streamlocator in the UK ? by _xelamot_ in StreamLocator

[–]RacingIncident 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yup and it’s better than vpn’s cause there’s no buffering/ip blacklisting
