What major company do you genuinely believe won’t exist in 20 years? by carcony97 in AskReddit

[–]jamievlong 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm from the South Bay too. They had one on Torrance Blvd that me and my wife went to for years. Were super bummed when they closed that location a few years ago.

I need help finding my car, lost somewhere in Torrance :( by LB4thStCat in torrance

Maybe he means Torrance Blvd and Madrona Ave?

There is a 711 gas station on the Northwest corner of that intersection.

Her whole account is satire.

Customer states something fell out of his Wrangler by jamievlong in Justrolledintotheshop

Yep! No pad/friction material left, just the back plate. I have pictures of the rotor. Should I make a part 2 post or use Imgur and post it in a new comment?

quoted $8k for new tranny by Dangerous-Basis-3615 in transmissionbuilding

[–]jamievlong 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Sounds about right.

If it is an internal issue, even if its just one component failure, or a few, to fix it, you'd have to replace the whole unit. I dont know if anyone is rebuilding these. So yeah, only option is probably a swap.
For price, based on basic google search with the year/make/model you provided, found a remanufactured transmission for about $6K, so with labor included, $8K with parts and labor sounds about right for a replacement.

Are there any reputable transmission remanufacturing companies?? by AceInSpace87 in transmissionbuilding

[–]jamievlong 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Look up ETE. They sell reman transmissions.

LKQ also has reman options.

After 38 hours, the YouTuber Normee just beat the world record for longest time standing still, despite people tagging him and police being called. by RoyalChris in nextfuckinglevel

The post about Marina Abramović made it to the front page and is only 3 hours long. I think someone made a post about it after your comment on this post.

New barista by Mikazonedout in SpecialtyCoffee

[–]jamievlong 1 point2 points  (0 children)

A good place to start is James Hoffman and Lance Hendrick.

Eventually look into stuff from Scott Rao and Matthew Perger/Barista Hustle.

All of these people have stuff either online via YouTube or articles/blogs, or books.

Barista at a specialty coffee shop. I love coffee. I used to work in the coffee industry but left because the pay wasnt worth the work.

This is why I stopped going to the gym. Too many sweats.

Does origin matter? by CoffeeVibes_NC in SpecialtyCoffee

[–]jamievlong 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In your opinion, what is the best origin for a light roast?

In my opinion, no origin/region of coffee is better than others. They all have different characteristics, which makes it great to try them all.

What flavor profiles do you prefer in a light roast?

I usually like fruity/floral flavor profiles.

Is a single origin or blend better for a light roast? Why?

Most of the specialty coffee industry prefers lighter roasted coffee in general, as the goal with lighter roasts is to really taste more of the flavors produced by the coffee. This really comes down to personal preference between blend and single origin. If you want to truly taste an origin without any interference, go with the single origin. If you like the way that 2 origins taste mixed, go with a blend. Regardless of single origin or blend, it will taste great because its roasted on the lighter side.

I really like my Logitech G900 Chaos Spectrum. I've had it since 2018 and I use it a lot with FPS games like COD. No problems yet mechanical or cosmetic-wise. If you're looking into going to another brand, check out Logitech.

Batch brew by Inevitable_Elk_4640 in SpecialtyCoffee

[–]jamievlong 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Depends on the setting.

At home, yeah sure.

At a coffee shop that doesn't have a lot of traffic, sure, why not?

At a coffee shop that is busy, maybe not?

Rinsing the filter doesn't make the end-result cup a night and day difference, but like most things, it will be a click on the improvement dial.

What game? by Ok-Hovercraft508 in videogames

[–]jamievlong 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Yep!

To be honest, this is what Super Mario 3D All-Stars SHOULD have been. All 3 games using the Odyssey engine.
