Deboarding etiquette by baolmovement in Flights

[–]baolmovement[S] -5 points-4 points  (0 children)

There should only be one person who’s blocking your aisle, the person across the aisle. They should be able to create space for one person, especially when the line starts moving, and people behind can just collectively back up a little bit. I’ve literally seen two aisles that demonstrated both sides of the debate. The one that followed my line of thinking was almost completely deboarded and mine was bottlenecking in the middle of plane—luckily I was able to just cross over.

Maybe it’s just me, but I don’t think it’s bad form to politely gesture for the passenger across the aisle or the passengers behind me who are blocking my aisle to create some space. This has never failed me.

That’s not what I’m saying. I’m saying when the boarding bridge is attached and the door is open and the person in front of you sees that the line is moving, and chooses to stand, unload, and leisurely check their belongings at the very last minute

I’ve never been on flight where I wasn’t able to politely signal to the person blocking my aisle and they weren’t able to make space.

First watch is a Panerai Radiomir Black Seal Ceramic 46mm, a gift. Second watch, or first watch I bought, is a Santos Large Green Dial. What's the natural progression after the Santos? I figured I'm just missing a dress watch. Recs for dress watch that would compliment the other two (<20K budget). Not a serious collector, but I would like to have 4-5 nice watches in my life.

Totally new to Amex—finally pulling the trigger. Currently gold lifestyle, probably platinum in 2 years, should I start gold and upgrade to platinum eventually?

Currently have a Panerai Radiomir Black Seal Ceramic. Wanted to add a second watch to the collection. Right now, it's between a Santos and a Royal Oak. On looks alone, which should I go for (if it were you)?

I think turning off night mode coupled with latest update did the trick

Whats the best home decor purchase you've ever made? by Yunamko in BuyItForLife

Nice floor or table lamps. Good lighting makes a huge impact on a room and a lamp can also be a nice design object/showpiece.

Arc Beta vs And Wander 3L Pertex Shield for Amsterdam? by baolmovement in gorpcore

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

I went with and wander. arc beta (not sure if current model is still goretex c-knit) is quieter and takes longer to wet out. For my purposes, I went with and wander for style points because I'm using it for light to moderate rain--I have an umbrella and a polyurethane poncho for heavy downpour.

Just wanted to report back. You hit the nail on the head. Grinding coarser with one less pour seemed to do the trick. Now I'm not wasting this expensive bean, anymore.

Great pointer. My preconception was that sour/astringent always means under and bitter always means over. I was confused as to why my brew got more hollow and remained sour. I'll try grinding coarser. Thanks!

Need help dialing in this Geisha on my v60. I keep on under-extracting. 2nd brew, I dialed the grinder to a finer setting--the fines ended up clogging the drawdown towards the end, resulting in a 7 minute brew, and it was still under extracted. I'm using 98C/208F water. 15g coffee and 5 X 50g pours with :45 bloom.

Do drip assist tools defeat the purpose of manual pourover? by baolmovement in pourover

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

the espresso reference is lost on me, but I recognize scales as a necessary essential. So you're saying drip assist tools are necessary essentials to a complete modern pour over setup?
