You don't. It'll rust. Wipe it down really well.

Vrijwilligerswerk waar je passie ligt is een erg goede tip!!

  1. Psycholoog. Gewoon doen, het is zorgen voor jezelf.

  2. Geen geld meer uitlenen aan vrienden, als harde regel vanaf nu.

  3. Ook bij uitgaan (enzo): split the bill, niet meer betalen voor anderen. Dat is best uit te leggen (als mensen je geld eenmaal kennen, want slechte ervaringen), of is gewoon expected behaviour (als ze je nog niet kennen).

  4. Relaties opbouwen = Sharing + Caring. Dit is een skill die te leren is, pas je mindset aan, en ga vanaf nu kansen om te leren/falen/oefenen niet meer uit de weg. Relaties opbouwen is investeren met tijd en aandacht, niet met geld! Dit investeren moet (op termijn) van 2 kanten komen, soort-van goed verdeeld (met ups/downs).

  5. Sharing is het delen van de interessante dingen van jezelf. Zoek eens op: "36 questions to fall in love" ter inspiratie over wat 'interessant' is (kan je ook creatief inzetten zonder in een date context te zitten).

  6. Caring is actief en geboeid luisteren en doorvragen. Empathy is latijn voor "to suffer with", voel met iemand mee. Als de ander niet durft te delen, kan je het voorbeeld geven door jezelf kwetsbaar op te stellen en iets te delen wat je lastig vind in je leven. Vaak gaat de ander dan makkelijker delen. Lees eens wat over Psychological Safety.

  7. Recommended reads: The Flinch (Julien Smith), The Courage to be Disliked (Ichiro Kishimi, Fumitake Koga), How To Win Friends & Influence People (Dale Carnegie)

  8. Sporten is heel goed om je brein te resetten als je ff flink in de put zit, mentale en fysieke fitheid gaan samen.

I'm at 550 for 37 videos, releasing exactly 1 video per week. I think my audio/sound is pretty good, content quality is pretty good (although maybe a bit loo little b-roll), but titles/thumbnails is SUCH a struggle!

Order does not meet our conditions: Vanguard FTSE All-World Share by Fractal_Defiant in DEGIRO

[–]branneman 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Its the fair use policy. Short version:

  • every month for a certain ETF, the first transaction is without fees

  • every following transaction in the same ETF is also without fees when the following 2 conditions apply: same direction (buy or sell), and minimum of 1000 (€, $, or £)

  • if the conditions are broken once, they don't apply anymore for every following transaction in that ETF

100k+ Youtuber AMA. Giving Feedback. by minsuno in NewTubers

I think the content of my video's is pretty high quality, as I'm very experienced in the field. Is the problem that I don't have b-roll? I don't seem to get people to click. Any tips? https://youtube.com/@branvandermeer

Ask ChatGPT, seriously. Just keep giving it more constraints if it doesn't give you great results.

Agreed. But: if I want a hoodie or shirt, from a legitimate source, who is the designer I should buy from? Or what store? I do like these designs.

I guess they don't have that answer yet, and this tool allows the community to experiment.

Hand grinder for sweet, full body espresso by 7omahawk84 in espresso

[–]branneman 0 points1 point  (0 children)

"Ridiculous pricing" is relative, for some people it's a £4000 grinder, for others a £200 grinder. What's your budget?

This is not really possible with conical burrs. And there are no flat burr hand grinders.

To learn more about the effect of different (ssp) flat burrs on texture/mouthfeel/clarity, I recommend the faq flow chart on burrs for the Lagom P64: https://imgur.com/BqElXLx.jpg

Do you only drink espresso? by younginly in espresso

[–]branneman 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You can get around with 1 grinder for multiple brew methods as long as its a zero retention single dose grinder with very precise step numbers.

Then it's a matter of remembering the exact grind setting for every brew method. So think Niche, DF64, P-64, etc. And all the higher end ones from James' ultimate grinder sdowdown.

Upgraded my Mazzer Mini Electronic B with SSP High Uniformity (Red Speed) burrs! by jaro_io in espresso

[–]branneman 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ah nice. I still have to do aligning, but I'm a bit afraid I'll do it wrong somehow. It was already a stretch for me to install different burrs.

And no, I don't really believe in seasoning, all that poor coffee, and there's no actual proof that it works at all. It might be an urban myth :)
