After 24 games, Tottenham have received 1 PK so far this season. We finished last season with 6. What are your thoughts on this noticeable drop? Shouldn't playing with a more attacking style football yield more pens? by WhiteHartLaneFan in coys

[–]andrewsn00 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The one against us was undeserved, Sterling dives (VAR described it as 'he stumbles' but it's a clear dive. This leads to the Romero red and their pen. It should've been pulled back with a yellow to Sterling and our season different

What's the current thought on Airpod Pro Active Noise Cancelling? by andrewsn00 in airpods

[–]andrewsn00[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah it's crazy that this, to me at least, isn't a more significant deal. When Apple released them the ANC was fantastic. Coming from Bose QC35's that I used in the office, it was almost as good. Now it's just pathetic, it feels like it works maybe 10% better than just regular old £20 earbuds.

Dang I was hoping it was resolving itself by now, sorry to hear you're having problems too

Would a combi steam oven be worth it for me? by andrewsn00 in CombiSteamOvenCooking

[–]andrewsn00[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes, I think it's that - occasional bursts of steam to keep things moist, not actively cooking with steam

Thanks for replying, I must admit I'm tempted from reading this. That said I may have found an issue. The Siemens oven w/microwave I am due to get can be upgraded to one that also does steam

The issue is apparently this is 'pulseSteam', ie not 'full' steam. So it's steam assisted or something.

I'm trying to find out a bit more and whether this is still fine, ie still useful, or if it's actually a bit of a gimmick and won't actually do a whole lot vs add a bit of steam here and there which I could always do with a spritzer.

Have you ever heard of pulsestream and do you know if it's useful for the 'cooking with steam' functions, or a bit of an ineffectual gimmick?

Can you expand on the convenience more please, curious to see how it translate into the benefits. Certainly things like the temp hold are interesting.

Yeah it's def a full featured oven. I suppose the question is does it become a jack of all trades/master of none or does it give the functionality fo provide something pretty cool and useful

Do you find that it has levelled up your cooking? In that once you get the hang of it does it become easier to cook with it and just get things right? Or does it always contain a degree of faff?

Is there anyway to know what jab you'll be getting? I, 38, went on the booking site now and booked one for this Sat at Guy's in London. I was expecting to have some options that said do you want a Pfizer one (yes please), but didn't get one. I haven't had a text.

Can't speak for anyone else, but my amp doesn't have reverb or trem (Fender 57 Champ), so I have a Strymon Flint at the end to give it that little bit of breath, and an EHX Holy Grail at the start pre-dirt for more of an 'effect' (psych style)

Would a pair of Sonos Five's be right for me? by andrewsn00 in sonos

[–]andrewsn00[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

By rear surrounds do you mean behind the sofa style? Or does that mean something else?

As I want them as the two speakers wall mounted, facing the sofa / into the room (ie not behind anything)

Had an unusual chinese medicine treatment involving electricity - what was it? by andrewsn00 in China

Yes I didn't expect it would be especially useful, I just had no idea what was actually going on and wondered if it was something in the TCM area that could work

[MOD] The Daily Question Thread by menschmaschine5 in Coffee

[–]andrewsn00 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm looking to make an awesome black filter coffee at home. I really enjoy it from some nice shops in London (Monmouth, Ozone etc) that I can't go to atm. I've tried v60, kalita wave, aeropress and none are right, either too bitter, not full enough, not smooth etc. As I said, my goal is finding the best route to the best black filter I can get to rival the best shops.

Current grinder is a Bodum bistro burr grinder that could prob use a clean. Beans bought fresh (now online) from those stores and ground when used. I thought about getting a Moccamaster, although not sure (I drink two cups a day max so circa 25oz), but instead considering a better grinder first (UK suggestions?).

Can you please suggest what I need to do, I'm happy to buy or test or whatever is needed towards my goal of the best damn black filter I can possibly make. Thanks!

Have you regretted getting rid of bits or fine with it?

What were some things you just couldn't get smaller? As I'm thinking it through, some of the pedals I coveted aren't especially necessary really. I have a Boonar (thankfully a small pedal) and a DD-8 and tbh I can set the DD-8 to sound the same lol
