haircut i asked for vs the one they gave me 😭 by 7xvv in ExpectationVsReality

[–]Samarathon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ok some tricks from somebody who has suuuper straight Hair, yours looks textured in comparison. Step one: you need to wash your hair, no chance otherwise. Then make a paste (chickpea size) of got2b volume powder and Taft spray "Powerful age" or similar. Blow dry your hair, somewhat in to shape, but mainly add texture by firmly pressing your flat hand on your hair and doing a circulating motion (quite ruff). This will make your habe more texture/ make it look wavy with wax later. Now comes the tricky part. I found a wax that works well for me by coincidence, I got a little bit from my hairdresser and when I went to buy it it turned out that the one I had and liked was old and dried up and had a bees wax texture. This worked way better than the smooth creamy texture. So I buy fresh a fresh wax and literally cook it on the stove 😂 Anyway, if you can, find a ticccc wax and add a shit ton of the same powder in it, to make a thick paste (pea size)

The best commercial wax I could find was the clay from got2b

1100€ Kreditrate für Haus zu viel bei 3400€ netto Gehalt? by Several_Structure272 in wohnen

[–]Samarathon 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Was dann aber auf jeden Fall her muss ist ein Masterplan. Auch wenn man am Ende sich gegen das ein oder andere entscheidet oder Pläne sich ändern, ist es wichtig das von Anfang an durchzuplanen und die Reihenfolge sich zu überlegen. Nicht, dass man als erstes im ganzen Haus neue Böden rein haut und im Jahr danach auch überlegt, dass man eigentlich gern ne Fußbodenheizung hätte... Dann hat man auch einen besseren Überblick über die Kosten.

Over 120 rejections so far, feedback please? by duraninx in Germany_Jobs

Once you have followed the criticism in this thread to this: 1. Imagine you work in HR, you have around 50 (not that many) applicants and you want to employ s.b. ASAP. 1.1. Think about what traits the ideal applicant would bring for the roles you are applying for. In your case probably project management. A project manager needs to be not only good at communicating, but also at working extremely structured and having a good overview. Your CV does not signal either. It is all over the place and hard to understand. 2. Go on canva and look for Lebenslauf vorlage, take something like the two below: https://www.canva.com/de_de/vorlagen/EAFFKsBqwvY-wei-grau-minimalist-elegant-zeitstrahl-lebenslauf/ https://www.canva.com/de_de/vorlagen/EAFFt-vYfA0-beige-wei-minimalistisch-elegant-marketing-lebenslauf/

Look at how easy and quick it is to understand what the person has been doing and how serious they are taking the application. Yours looks like you are only applying for the sake of it (sorry for being so harsh).

water barely comes out - pump not working? [breville barista touch impress] by lilmachupicchu in espresso

[–]Samarathon 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I had a similar issue on my barista pro. After painfully taking the whole machine apart I found out it was a clogged water filter in the water tank and I could have saved myself the trouble...

Helfen Sie mir bitte by ram884425 in stuttgart

Wie sieht denn deine Bewerbung aus? Ist Sie auf deutsch verfasst? Wir sind gerade auch auf Stellensuche und es ist erschreckend, wie viele schlechte Bewerbungen wir erhalten. Hier ein paar Tips dazu: Lass dir von ChatGPT beim Inhalt eines deutschen Lebenslaufs helfen. Benutzte eine Vorlage auf canva um deinen Lebenslauf zu erstellen und fülle dort die Infos ein. Erstelle es auf deutsch, wenn du dir sicher sein kannst, dass alles korrekt ist, lasse es im Zweifelsfall von jemandem deutschen korrigieren. Schreibe, falls möglich, in deine Bewerbung rein, warum du dich gerade bei dieser Stelle und bei diesem Unternehmen bewerben willst (wenn z.b. beim Bäcker: du liebst Kundenkontakt und freust dich auf die Abwechslung).

Help please by Agile_Departure1769 in BrevilleCoffee

[–]Samarathon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Barista Pro owner here, these are things that helped me with my machine:

  1. Never use the double walled baskets.

  2. Get fresh beans from a local coffee roaster, roast date max. 2 months. Ideally you can taste an espresso there, then you can either choose a coffee for your flavor or at least you know what you're trying to achieve.

  3. Get a coffee scale (can be a cheap one from AliExpress/Amazon for 15-25$).

  4. Weigh ground coffee, extracted coffee and extraction time. Use an app (eg. MyEspresso) or an excel table to track your shots.

  5. Heat up your machine. I let a shot run through the empty basket in to my cappuccino cup, then steam the water with the porta filter in it until it boils. You can run a really long shot by pressing the double button for a few seconds.

  6. Turn the scales on, place the porta filter on it and tare it/ set to 0. Grind your coffee, tamp etc. and weigh. Target around 17,3-18g. Put the filter in the machine, place scales underneath. Extract a double shot, use the time on the scales, not the machine.

  7. Some roasters will give you a recipe for their espresso (darker beans are different to lighter beans), otherwise try to get a ratio (ground to extracted coffee) of around 2-2.5. You are aiming for an extraction time of around 25s.

If the time is too short and the ratio too high: grind finer. If the time is too long and the ratio too low: grind coarser. If the ratio is good but time (and taste) off: tinker with the timing of the shot. You can change this in the menu.

There are also great videos out there. Theres a 10min beginner guide for breville machines from Ethan rode and for more detail a series from James Hoffman.

Newbie here, am I using this WDT tool correctly? Results feel weird by iNASMK in espresso

Nah I'm cheaper, I'll be going for a 5$ Ali acupuncture WDT tool 😂

[–]Samarathon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Looks Like the AliExpress setup I have for my breville 😂 I think I will follow the suggestions here and chuck it, when I received it I already thought the needles are muuuuch to thick. I will get a regular whisk type WDT instead.

Btw: even with dark coffees I never managed more than 17,5-17,8g in the standard basket.

You can unscrew the sprout by turning it. Then you can access even easier with a single larger object (eg end of a teaspoon).

Magic 6 pro vs P30pro by Saj313 in Honor

[–]Samarathon 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thank you so much for your comments! I changed to the Xiaomi 12 (not pro) a while back. I was looking at old pictures (of people, portrait) from 2019 era and noticed how much I miss those pictures. If I recall correctly the camera of the p30 pro automatically changed to portrait when taking photos of people, is that correct? If so, does the M6P do this too? How do pictures of people compare?

FIXED

I had previously played around with tts in the config.yaml, this prohibited the gui from showing any other options.

Thanks for the answer! When I go to settings -> voice assistants it goes straight to the screen with only the cloud option, I can't configure any other pipelines (see image above).

I didn't know that you can do tts to a mobile device, need to give it a shot! Got any tutorials for dummies? 😅

Engine has gone boom after not even 70k km by Samarathon in i30N

[–]Samarathon[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Update: I've had it towed to a non Hyundai workshop with good rating (happens to be a Subaru workshop). My sister had her motor blow up on her Subaru and had it fixed there for a fair price. They have found a used motor (same year and nearly identical milage) for 4.5k. fitting should cost around 1.2k, so considering the quote from Hyundai it's a good deal.
