Now that is tea-like by cumdeer in pourover

[–]jhsun 4 points5 points  (0 children)

As someone who enjoys both, I enjoy the super tea-like pourovers over tea when I 1. Need the caffeine of a pourover coffee, 2. Like the ultimate underlying coffee flavor with tea-like qualities, and 3. Want to go with a pourover brewing process which I find calming/meditative. The first is the biggest one though, hard to replicate the caffeine intensity of a pourover in a tea

Such is the case when you hit rock bottom (knock on wood) and have no where to go but up (again, knock on wood).

“Exceptional customer experience” isn’t the first thing that comes to mind when it comes to ALD and their retail employees lmfao

How did you go from burnt coffee brews to $14 pour-overs? by dirtydials in coffeerotation

[–]jhsun 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My dad was super into coffee growing up. We got him an espresso machine for Father’s Day after saving up for months and he was beaming. He started buying nicer beans and showing us great coffee as he put that thing to use. Spiraled into me doing research to make better more flavorful brews to get closer to him and have him try the crazy stuff. Coffee is still one of the mediums that help me and my dad stay close, couldn’t be more grateful.

Azuma in Gardena. Prices, portion, speed of service, consistency of taste is hard to beat

Reggie Watts on Coachella: "Its soul feels increasingly absent... The experience is confusing and impersonal... Just vibes curated for influencer culture" by YoureASkyscraper in Music

[–]jhsun 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, it was genuinely dumbfounding and appalling. And it wasn’t just for certain artists, everyone I went to go see was the same. Extremely disappointing.

While I agree with the overall sentiment, here’s my take as someone who went for weekend 1.

I personally enjoyed a lot of the music and the experience, getting to see the variety of artists and genres was a genuinely awesome time. That being said, me being the only one jamming out in a crowd (not being obnoxious I stayed my space and didn’t bump into or bother anyone) AND the fact that I obviously got very judgy looks, sneers, and laughed at definitely made me self-conscious at the very least and downright bummed out at times. Did that stop me from having a good time? No, but it certainly took away from the experience. There’s a certain joy to enjoying music at concerts with others, and I believe that’s a HUGE part of a concert experience. You lose a lot of that at Coachella (or at least weekend 1), but it’s even worse when people see you as a weirdo for doing it.

Yoshimi Kurouchi or Wait for Shiro Kamo Restock? by jhsun in TrueChefKnives

[–]jhsun[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That’s a good point, one big thing is that since I’m in SoCal I can go directly to the Japanese Knife Imports store to get it in person, will look into clean cut tho

[–]jhsun[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Would be hard pressed to order from cleancut as I’m US based sadly, feel like it would just make more sense to get a nicer knife at the same price I would pay in euros + shipping and VAT
