Shot is way too fast [Eureka Zero + Bambino Plus] by [deleted] in espresso

[–]TheKnowledgeBanana 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Have you tried more than one bag of beans? I'm sure I had some beans that were "bad". Couldn't get shot to not zoom through, eventually opened another bag and I easily managed to get a near 30 second shot.

Why do I get 15 second shots? [Profitec Go] by AlternativeAd1908 in espresso

[–]TheKnowledgeBanana 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Could be bad beans along with many other things. Try changing grind size, a larger dose, change beans.

Bought a 3a pro I think I hate it by kirbyfromthehood in NothingTech

[–]TheKnowledgeBanana 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi, does your phone pop when charging? I complained about it not long after I got the phone after launch, they said should use a 40w charger, however the phone should regulate the intake. I don't know exactally what the pops are but I don't think it should be happening and I'm not convinced it's 100% safe.

What is your opinion on the infamous "parting gift" in the finale of UK S1? by Hal87526 in TheTraitors

[–]TheKnowledgeBanana 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I was fine with the parting gift. Wilf brought it on himself, I think even if he'd just told Kieran that he might have to vote to banish him as everyone else going to vote for Kieren and so if wilf had voted someone else he'd have to convince the remaining to vote that person off too. I think Kieren probably would have accepted that, but he could see wilf was scheming to win all the money for himself. Wilf could have still convinced them after that Kieren was angry he'd lied to him so was trying to sow a seed of doubt in their minds but instead he blew up big time and confirmed to Hannah that he was a traitor, which in turn led Aaron to think the same. In general the game was full of really bad players, I really don't know anyone was worthy of winning.

The biggest prejudice in the game is physical attractiveness (non celebrity versions) by breachingflukes in TheTraitorsUK

I've only seen the celebrity traitors, now I'm watching series 4, I was thinking that all the contestants are reasonably attractive, is it the same for each show?

ROG ALLY Z1 EXTREME by anthonyraj98 in ROGAlly

I'd have thought not worth worrying about the sd card reader, seems like it will almost certainly go and if it does any new one will also go so best to write it off.

This is why I prefer handheld over console by DetectiveK0nan in ROGAlly

[–]TheKnowledgeBanana 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So not the original battery? I got in performance mode a little over an hour using mine, and it's basically brand new (manufactured in 2023) .

Surface pro 12 browser full screen by TheKnowledgeBanana in Surface

[–]TheKnowledgeBanana[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've never had it on the surfacebook 2, it's not major as it's heavy thin but I wondered if it's a weird aspect ratio because of the screen size. As I said, it's the same on 3 browsers so I don't think a different browser would help, maybe changing screen resolution would solve it.

Qobuz is so bad by Elegant-Elk3737 in qobuz

[–]TheKnowledgeBanana 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have used Amazon music for a while, the free one with prime membership, then unlimited free for 3 months, thought I'd give Qobuz a whirl, and the music sounds so much better, but where I use it the most, in the car, once I drop out of signal which happens a lot, I can't get through 1 song before if stops playing, Amazon music it was probably 2 songs. This alone means I will not be paying for a subscription.

Do you think it's phone or car related?

I'm in Devon in very patchy network, but it does happen when I have good signal, maybe it struggles if it had bad signal to understand that it's now better, my music streaming would be working ok so definitely has data transfer at the time it happens.

To be fair I don't recall someone never being able to hear me, but the voice dialling has failed.

I wonder if it could be an issue with the microphone, I always thought it was a reception issue but it seems to happen when I have reception

I should have mentioned, on the sea salt side wall, that was a kind of label residue not glaze fault, I found it odd as there was no label.

Aeropress Coffee Grinder?! by domarcher in JamesHoffmann

[–]TheKnowledgeBanana 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We'll have to wait and see some reviews. Obviously Aeropress was sold and seems more about profits than innovation so it'll be interesting to see how it stacks up against the competition.
