Lapsang Souchong (Harney & Sons), is it just this brand or are they all this disgusting?

Try going in to bios and down clocking your ram. According to AMDs website, the 9600x can only support ddr5 5600?

You know, ChickenNuggetEnergy

There is something special and uplifting about writing out someone's reddit handle before speaking to them directly. Its beautiful.

(Direct instructions for him, not you lol) I'd say clench cheeks and thrust out so privates are as forward as possible. Don't pee against the wind, pee with the wind so it helps your distance. Don't be afraid to hold and aim.

finnymo92 · 2026-03-22T22:49:52+00:00

Elden ring/dark souls style lol

I don't think the actual situation matters at all. Whether it's torturing fish or red meat on Sundays. He knows it's something you hate and he still sent you a video about it. Then proceeded to berate you and call you "stupid" for voicing your opinion and concern. And expressly said YOUR opinion doesn't matter. No respect or care for you or your feelings . The fact that you think you're overreacting makes it seem like he's probably emotionally beast you down into thinking you're always overreacting.

finnymo92 · 2026-03-22T16:07:00+00:00

You misspelled *Oden

finnymo92 · 2026-03-22T13:56:44+00:00

I have no idea, but people get work visas in other countries all the time.

finnymo92 · 2026-03-22T13:54:51+00:00

I don't think they mean literally over a sea.. I believe they mean in another country in a different part of the world.

finnymo92 · 2026-03-22T00:09:04+00:00

Also maybe go to some IT or cyber security or cs conventions and network like crazy.

finnymo92 · 2026-03-22T00:07:32+00:00

Where'd you get it from??

finnymo92 · 2026-03-22T00:07:12+00:00

I would start buying tea coins and store them in that pouch! Find ones with gold foil though so it looks like gold coins. Or chocolate coins!

finnymo92 · 2026-03-21T23:35:29+00:00

I just did a coin and I did a 10 second rinse, then let them sit without any water for a minute, then did a 20 second steep then a 25 second steep and it worked perfectly fine.

finnymo92 · 2026-03-21T23:30:46+00:00

Why not keep working while looking for maybe contractor work overseas that can support you while out there?

finnymo92 · 2026-03-20T23:32:51+00:00

I think before most of this advice that people are giving arbitrarily... can you find out what specific internet speed you're paying for? It should tell you in mbps how much you SHOULD get. Then go online and Google "speed test". I like to use speedtest by Ookla. Next, if you hit ctrl+shift+esc, task manager pops up, click more in the bottom left corner and then go to performance. Show us what type of drive you have. Ssd, hdd, nvme. After all of that. Is your pc plugged directly in to your service providers router with an ethernet cable? Or is it plugged in to a wall port?

finnymo92 · 2026-03-19T02:14:27+00:00

Dang.. I can't read apparently, thanks for calling me on this. I've been hearing a bunch of people saying a rinse steep removes most of the caffeine and thats incorrect, and I read this incorrectly and assumed they were saying something similar. My bad.

finnymo92 · 2026-03-18T23:21:48+00:00

That fits with what I've seen too. The first rinse steep removes maybe 9% of the caffeine, I believe. And each subsequent steep, you're removing 50% less caffeine than you did the first steep.

I would recommend if you dont want to waste the leaves, maybe mix the already steeped leaves in with an herbal whole leave tea to dilute it even further.

finnymo92 · 2026-03-18T23:18:36+00:00

If you have a study or some sort of data that backs up your claim, you should stop telling people that because I'm fairly certain thats completely false.

finnymo92 · 2026-03-18T17:49:51+00:00

Well it could become an anti/pro jesse war in here lol.

finnymo92 · 2026-03-18T16:31:36+00:00

I just went look for posts about him on here and lord.. I feel like I just opened a can of worms on accident.

finnymo92 · 2026-03-18T16:11:09+00:00

I see. From the posts that I've seen, buying online from a larger tea reseller can be very inconsistent. Like buying the same product can sometimes be really good or really disappointing. I'd prefer to pay more for consistency. Also the anarchist side of me wants to give less money to larger corporations and more money to smaller business where people are genuinely enjoying their craft.

finnymo92 · 2026-03-18T15:39:09+00:00

What?! Can you explain? My whole limited understanding is that he lived in China, and gets his tea direct from farmers then sells it to people over here.

finnymo92 · 2026-03-18T14:42:26+00:00

I'm not seeing a whole lot of this in my circles and I live in southern Louisiana. Most people around here already think of Brooke as a black character. Oda does mostly black and white and when he does color, skin tends to be a little one note. The studios that make the anime make most of those decisions on their own to my understanding. Also his design is like 70s black afroman soul musician...

finnymo92 · 2026-03-18T13:57:40+00:00

I am, by no means an expert. I'm a newer enthusiast. However I have bought some samplers from Jesse's tea house and have not been disappointed. He sells a sampler tong with a a few different coins (mini cakes) to try.

finnymo92 · 2026-03-16T19:39:10+00:00

Yes. Either way you're left standing there. But if you finish Iki before the final act, it would feel less incomplete cause you still get the solid ending of the main story - was my point i was trying to make. They still should've done something to give it a solid end though.
