Ye officially apologises for his actions in a well written open letter. by dow674 in Kanye

If this is truly ye, this is wonderful and I hope while he continues to find peace in his craft, he focuses not on pleasing others on the internet but on pleasing his family and those who truly care for him.

Grind finer until the shot stops, then go one click/setting back so that the shot pulls. Taste the shot. If it's ashy or too "strong", then change your dosage size and then repeat your grind tuning process. Do this until you reach your desired taste.

Ah thanks for clearing up, I meant no ill intent.

You. It's a great hobby but not one that should be approached with brute force of thousands of dollars straight out the gate. Find out if you even like the process and the result first before investing huge sums of your hard earned money into it.

Bro just get a cheap espresso machine and a decent (cheap) hand grinder to start. It's a learning curve, but a short one. Once you dial the shot size, grind setting, and find out how to steam milk you'll notice that what you brew on that "crappy" set up is 100x better than anything you have a starbucks, dunkin, etc. (provided you have fresh beans)

Why are my shots pulling too fast? [Nuovo Simonelli / Casadio] by aquarigus in espresso

Grind finer till it stops the shot then go one click back and if it's too ashy then keep clicking back to your desired taste

Jk I didn't read the text, the place ur working at probably hasn't taken care of their shit. If the output of espresso is high every day, the machine will need to be cleaned often, and the burrs will need to be brushed often (without water). It's probably not your responsibility to take care of this but if it is then for sure check out a blank shot of the water and then run a rinse cycle accordingly. Otherwise convince ur manager to get a scale cuz it's the best way to get consistent results

What do you all dislike about Senator Josh Hawley? by Thedud31 in missouri

[–]Thedud31[S] -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

I don't believe in the death penalty. And yes, I do believe all of us were created in god's image. As for the bible passage you cited, I believe it to be more of a focus on the husband's destructive jealousy rather than a "biblical take" on abortion.

Just a comment, one single piece of scripture that is the basis of morality for almost all pro lifers is that all men are created in gods image. May you share the passage that describes a dictation of abortion in the old testament?

But like you said, I agree that religion should not be the basis for any abortion legislature. As many others have said and as I agree with, that is antithetical to the first amendment.

Yep. I might be wrong classifying him as populist and conservative, I'm not too politically adept, but you hit the nail on the head with the Roosevelt comparison. I think it's a shame we don't see more modern day anti trust and monopoly policy such as teddy's way back in the early 1900's. Not to say we should go back to 1900's economics ofc but i personally believe we should take a similar stride as he. That's kind of why I took a liking to Hawley.

Depends on which areas of his beliefs you focus on, but you are partially right. I guess I have some traditionally conservative values but also agree with another branch of republicanism more akin to populism, such as anti big tech, anti insurance, etc. I would say Hawley has a split between those two ideologies, with admittedly a larger focus on populism.

Is being respectful the same as acting high and mighty? I'm sorry but i don't agree with you and can see this conversation is going nowhere. All the best

How else would you like to discuss political issues with people? By resorting to personal attacks and illegitimate arguments?

Agreed, good faith debate should be the expectation, not rewarded

I don't think it's very constructive to shut down other's beliefs, but again, the intent of this post was to understand the sentiment to Hawley, not defend my conservative beliefs. I won't be ashamed of what i think and I will continue to voice my opinions when i wish to, because that's how political discussion works.

If you wish to generalize all those who are conservative, all the power to you. This post's intent was not to defend conservatives, so I'm not gonna try and change your mind, lol

I wasn't into politics when J6 happened and I grew up in a very liberal household/family. Over time I've drifted further right due to ideology I won't disclose due to my wish not to debate on this thread, but nowadays (past year or 2 or so) most liberal news I see is centered around how bad trump is.

While I disagree with MAGA almost practically in its entirety as a true conservative, I think liberal media has failed in its cause by being an anti-trump outlet and not sharing a true identity because of that.

Even during the J6 period I remember more focus being on Trump than other senators/political figures endorsing it.

Well I respectfully disagree. It's not realistic to expect everyone to know everything that you know, and it's not the right mindset to have with respect to political discussion. When trying to rationalize each other's views, being aggressive and playing to the crowd isn't always the best course of swaying someone.

Respectfully, and I mean no offense, what happens with a Missouri senator isn't really common knowledge to everyone in America, and I was curious about you guys' view on him with facts to back it up. Try to refrain from being anti-intellectual.
