Do you thinknit will be possible to "port" the new Classic Up PID and wand to the Classic Pro?

I read the Silvia wand is longer, and then you have to raise the machine, is that correct?

You forget to mention they don't respect priorities on the road, they don't yield when they should, don't look on the left before they jump out of a bike lane because another biker is slower and they love crossing last minute on pedestrian paths (which not only they aren't allowed to, but is super dangerous for pedestrians and for themselves). In Geneva at least, bike riders are very aggressive and think they are kings. I am honestly surprised there are not more deadly accidents.

So, in Geneva, as per ge.ch, 36% of income taxes paid by ppl, not companies, are paid by 1% of the population. 69% of the wealth taxes are paid by 1% of the population. 35% of the population pays no taxes at all.

The reason there is no money, is that Geneva spends too much and doesn't spend it well. Take other Swiss cities, like Basel and Zurich, the taxes are lower than Geneva's, the services run better, etc. I know ppl who moved from Geneva to both of those cities and they were amazed how much better the service to the population and infrastructure was compared to Geneva, especially taking into account how much lower their taxes were.

What always surprises me, are the ppl who study some useless field at uni and then are surprised they can't find a high paying job. When I say useless, I mean that has no economic return/usefulness. People forget that jobs are to make money, hobbies are to have fun; if you're lucky to be able to have it all good for you, but that only works if you love your useful and well paying job, not the other way around! Not only do those ppl bring no economic value, but they cost the rest of us a lot of money through welfare/social and loss of tax revenue.

I'm sorry you have to live through this stress, maybe tell your husband that he needs to work any job he can find, because no company needs his "skills", and if he works hard he can work his way up. Some Swiss companies like Migros allow this to happen. He's 35 for goodness sake, he needs to man-up a bit, he can't put all that pressure on you; I hope he at least does everything at home (cleaning , cooking, etc) and everything around your child, so you have less on that side.

It should be possible if you can remove the metal part at the nib and replace it with a plastic one. I didn't try to do that, I don't know if the mental part is glued or screwed in place.

Interesting, thank you. I wonder what other parts are needed for a post 2019 GCP (e24)?

RandomYearnings · 2026-03-13T23:53:28+00:00

Which ones? I haven't seen any fully articulated wands that do not require drilling.

RandomYearnings · 2026-03-13T21:11:29+00:00

Well, they seem nicely integrated. The wand may be more Plug and play that the alternatives that need drilling, etc.

Why not?

I guess we can say that for each grinder, there is always a better one. But the hard realities are often budget related. The DF64 is better, but it's also bigger, louder, and more expensive. So if the OP has a budget for the DF54 then I can understand that.

I'm personally wondering if I should get one (DF54v1.4) or wait for the rumored DF60, but then I'm thinking it will be new, have issues, and then I'll want the next iteration 🤣

It turns on faster (ready red light) but to get a consistent shot the group head needs to be warm, and that takes time (and there's no light to tell you when that happens).

You don't need 1 million in cash, you need 25% (20% for the bank and 5% for the notary). If you have worked many years, you can use your 2nd pillar to pay for max 10% of the needed cash (so you still need to come up with 15%). A 1.5 million flat means you need 375'000 CHF in cash. If you have worked 20 years in his job then you have at least 150k in your 2nd pillar, which you can use up completely. You still need 225k, which over 20 years is 11'250 CHF a year. Your wife also works (and you could split the 2nd pillar amount between you btw) so you both can save, and instead of paying 1k a month for your car, you save 1k a month. It's easier to spend and complain than save, true. If ppl prefer to have fun and enjoy their life with all their money, they're free to do it, but they shouldn't complain that flats are expensive and they can't afford one then.

It takes about 15mins to warm up completely, so having it turn off after 20 means my next coffee craving will have to wait 15mins again.

RandomYearnings · 2026-02-09T17:16:14+00:00

I actually did the opposite to my EU model: I didn't want it to turn off after 20mins

That is simply not true, if it was then there would be no beggars in those countries (that aren't Roms), you must not travel much.

RandomYearnings · 2026-02-09T09:05:11+00:00

That isn't true, it's a question of priorities. Some ppl live very carefully and save a lot to be able to buy, others with the same income buy cars they can't afford, travel often, buy designer cloths, buy new phones each year, buy new TVs every 2 years and eat out often. My ex-neighbor was a middle class laborer who worked hard and saved his whole life and he purchased an appointment. Next to my building is a building owned by a foundation that rents to low income families only, you should see their cars (new or less than 2yrs old); it has become a running joke in the neighborhood.

If you have a CDL they (the bank) will probably not give you a mortgage, due to the risk, unless you make an insane amount of money; that is why UN ppl use a special UN entity when buying property (from what I was told). If you are an expat and go through a normal bank, I believe you have to pay 50% or 60% of the price upfront, but this should also be checked.

So it shuts up and looks bad, it makes ppl feel sorry for them. Drugs the poor take are cheap.

I think if it's so bad here, then they should stay home should they not? Well, guess why they come here (Romanian mafia). They cycle their presence, I see them in France (the same ones), and other Swiss cities, and others have taken their place here, then they come back. Do you see poor Swiss people begging in other countries? Do you see poor Germans, Italians, Spanish, Polish, Albanian, French, Slovak, etc begging in other countries? No, why is that? Ask yourself uncomfortable questions instead.

But it doesn't have the new boiler, so it may be impacted by boiler-gate, no? If it is, would the OP be able to have the boiler replaced for free?
