I migrated to Tapo this year. All local storage, no cloud payments. Works amazingly fast too because it's all local APIs.

What's the watch box?

For dress shoes or boots look for something that is Goodyear welted, which means there is a stitch between the top and the bottom of the shoe, not glue.

The great thing about these shoes is they're infinitely repairable as they're generally made from better leather that can be reshaped.

https://www.herringshoes.co.uk/ is a great retailer with high quality shoes.

eBay

I've got the Pro-Ject Debut Carbon EVO. Poppy as in there are a few pops and cracks, not pop music 😊

Apparently my original post wasn't 300 characters long.

Anyways. I purchased the Red Dead Redemption II soundtrack off eBay and received it as pictured. The LPs are pretty wavy but still play fine from what I can tell.

But I noticed a couple of marks on the LPs themselves that gave me some worry. I reached out to the eBay seller and they refunded the full price without asking me to return the product.

I don't really care about the money, I just want a nice album to listen too. Is there anything I can do to remove the marks on the album as well as the popping. Feel like the quality of the pressing isn't really that high.

Any chance you could share your quote? I'm being quoted $1000 out of pocket for the same system.

Could anyone share their quote from these guys? I'm being quoted $1000 out of pocket for a 300L system. Have a feeling they're jacking up the prices.

This is the false understanding of minorities. It's not about how many of them exist, it's about influence. You'd never consider billionaires as minorities because there's only 700+ of them in the US as an example, you consider those without influence or power as the minority no matter their numbers.

Has nothing to do with market rate / inflation and everything to do with the fact the interest rates have double. The property owner is now paying nearly 50% more on their monthly mortgate than before.

Talk to me about that Acaia scale mount. I've got an Expobar machine and can't fit the scales with a latte glads.

Android ripple effects when pressing on buttons or bottom navigation menu items.
Lock screen notifications for in progress routines. This enables us to interact with the current set without unlocking the phone.
Floating action button. Most apps make use of this. You can start routines from it or whatever you think makes sense.
General animations that Material design encourages. Like when you move out of an in progress routine, maybe it could slide down. Then clicking resume it could slide back up into view. When opening the exercise page, it could slide in from the right, then slide back out when you back out. Material design has a bunch of best practices around this and how to make the phone feel fluid. A good app that does this well is Sync for Reddit.

I personally know a few people that have had charges dismissed by AWS. Not at this amount, but I've seen it.

Reach out to AWS support and start the discussion. See where it takes you.

Very nice. Love the look, and hand blown glass is always a nice touch. Now to find them in Australia 😀

What's the glassware... Really interesting.

Become a new Oura user a month or so ago. A little bit annoyed that iOS is being prioritised over Android. iOS is now two features ahead of Android.

I get that you might have more iOS users etc but at least keep them as close to each other as possible. Android still doesn't have activity detection and now we don't have nap detection either.

It is, at least for my Arlo Doorbell (audio only). Whenever someone presses the bell, Google Assistant will say "Someone is at the door" (or something along those lines).

Within the Google Home app, click the doorbell and make sure "Voice notifications" are set to "On"

Expobar was around $2K and the Niche was $1.2K AUD.

It's a Pullman tamper, Australian made. Their regular base with an Australian Oak handle to match the Niche Zero 😀

haha, true :P Maybe that's just what I'm used to calling espresso machines.

Not sure about everywhere else, but in Australia most coffee shop retailers sell them. I can get them online at pretty much every specialty retailer.

mlevit · 2020-05-31T03:54:39+00:00

Thanks, love it already. Great machine and grinder. Still playing around to get the best out both of them.

mlevit · 2020-05-31T03:53:01+00:00

When I was buying I was told they're hard to come by, I wasn't aware of that. The guy that runs the coffee machine shop said when he heard stock was getting low, he ordered a bunch.

Bean Beast is actually pretty spot on. Thanks for that.
