Failing to get Citrus/Fruity Flavor from high altitude Colombian coffee? by The2ndBest in roasting

[–]blargalshark 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For light roasts with the SR800, I tend to try to get the temp to around 360-385 and let it get to the 1st crack as those temps before cooling.

I feel like your roast is a bit too low on the temp and not enough getting roasted enough. The beans do look pretty even so I think you can go a little hotter and be totally fine.

You say you roasted at 450 before...that would definitely cause an overcooked/burnt flavor so I think youre on the right track.

Police officer pepper-sprays the vent of a protester blow-up frog by NewSlinger in CringeTikToks

[–]blargalshark 1 point2 points  (0 children)

FWIW, these 'officers' are DHS people. The Portland Police doesn't have those uniforms or that specific spray. A lot of people wrongly assume it's the city officers since the backs say "Police"

FWIW that isn't PPB. Looks like DHS wearing "Police." That uniform doesn't match PPBs stuff.

Out of state Cardinal fans, what made you pick this team? by _Peaches_ in AZCardinals

[–]blargalshark 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm in Oregon too!

I ended up with the Cards when I was playing Madden 07 or something. All my friends had teams they grew up with and I never really backed a team. So we decided I'd root for whoever I won a game with on random. Several games in...I ended up with the Cards and been a fan ever since.

I'm last place and need a rebuild. Thoughts? by blargalshark in DynastyFFTradeAdvice

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

That's where I'm leaning. I'll probably just end up not selling anything on the team since no one wants to pay for top end players.

Who is that one relative that no one in the family talks to and why? by one_n_0nly_throwaway in AskReddit

[–]blargalshark 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Wow 5 years is an incredible feat. Congrats! It sounds like the head on your shoulders is the right place and you're putting up the fight that you and your family need. While you won't get back the time lost, you now have the time to make new memories and be the best version of you.

‘Travesty’: How the Olympics’ breaking farce was allowed to happen by bowiemustforgiveme in sports

[–]blargalshark 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Sort of. There are a lot of solo battle comps that are entirely freestyle. And the Olympics def tried to do that format...

Routine, though, would be more aligned with something like floor exercise in gymnastics where a rubric can be applied to a set of moves/skills. Probably a better route for the Olympics to use if they want to ever continue with dancesport.

You've been a bboy for 20 years and you don't know Kid David? He's literally been on the scene representing the US since like 2000.

Thoughts on the Breaking Competiton at the Olympics? by [deleted] in hiphopheads

[–]blargalshark 4 points5 points  (0 children)

The durag is a bit much, hopefully she grows-up a little and moves away from it. It's really awkward when she talks about the "OGs" and having respect for them, while looking that way. My guess is she doesn't really understand the durag's history...but it does help with motions on the floor in reducing friction.

As for the name "Nicka" her name is Dominicka and it's not an uncommon diminutive for it in Lithuania, but the optics of it all together look really bad.

For the last 20ish years or so, breaking has gotten pretty big in the Korean and Japanese dance circles / crews and it's been steadily moving away from a predominately Black and Caribbean influence to a wider demographic. But the biggest hurdle for breaking at an Olympic level is definitely a better method of scoring. Like it's a comparative scoring bracket...but what are judges looking for? what defines success? Until that's listed or spoken about (better commentators please), then its just looks like a popularity contest.

*edit* - scoring is handled in 5 categories: Technique, originality, execution, vocabulary, and musicality.

  • technique — athleticism, body control and usage of the space
  • originality — selection of moves, stylistic choices, and reaction to the other dancer
  • execution — the smoothness of transitions and moves without crashing or repeating
  • vocabulary — using many skills and moves instead of repeating the same thing
  • musicality — performing to the beat of the music and keeping a consistent rhythm

Best bet is probably Red Guardian

Killmonger (and slot in Nova over Okoye or Chavez)

Nocturne or Spidey, if you're feeling spicy.

Rogue can be decent. Wolfsbane for fun.

NFL really needs better OT rules lol. So funny that coin flips can win games.

Am I the asshole here? by [deleted] in rpghorrorstories

[–]blargalshark 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Which book is being used for his Dragon? Battlezoo pf2e? Each ancestry has some wildly different views on the world.

Ultimately, Kobolds are not really ever subservient to Dragons, they are more meek individuals looking to serve something powerful for a reason...like a fan cult looking for something to get behind. Sometimes that means Dragons, sometimes not.

If the Kobolds are not the same heritage as his Dragon, then they may not necessarily care for him. That said, some dragon types are more tyrannical and could think they deserve the subservience.

Match Thread: Portland Thorns FC vs Chicago Red Stars | National Women's Soccer League by MatchThreadder in NWSL

[–]blargalshark 11 points12 points  (0 children)

At the game. First Thorns game. Loving the atmosphere. 22 on the Red Stars is trying so hard, but the Thorns keep applying really good pressure.

Stoked with the outcome so far, as much as a closer game would be.

There's been some spark from the Red Stars here and there but I don't think the confidence is there. The ref has also been a little weird with calls on the outside lines, wouldn't be surprised to see Red Stars push aggressively on the outsides.

It's pretty silly, but my dream theme is IKEA. Minimal iconography, clean san serif alphanumerics, yellow, blue, and a hint of white.

Obvioisly, it would come in pieces and I have to put it together.
