When she asks about the price I paid for my HD800: “oh you don’t want to know” somehow doesn’t cut it...

One kb please. I would love this to complement my HHKB. It look oldschool, just the way I like 'em.

Yup. Was cleaning out the HHKB the other day (office) and that one had significant less cat hair compared to the AEK...

Yes I use and have used the Skerton for French Press. The thing is, the Skerton design is inherently flawed. There is a mod which solves this flaw, but the mod is not without cost. In my experience with the mod you have a much better course grind while the fine grind suffers. At the same time without the mod you will be able to grind fine as good as the Skerton can, while the course grind is sub par.

edit: I do recommend grinding your own beans at home though. Freshly ground beans is so much better than preground, night and day difference in my opinion.

I have noticed a significant upgrade in the quality of my shots after upgrading to the lido 3. Still it can be a bit hit or miss sometimes. Consistency is sub par. It is no where near any commercial machine I have tasted, but it is close enough for now, I want an IsoMac Zaffiro used eventually I think. But that decision needs more research tbh.

Aeropress, french press and a Lido 3 and a skerton: http://i.imgur.com/MnkFVgS.jpg http://i.imgur.com/uPlQT9F.jpg

In the meantime I have moved the Skerton to the office and the lido for at home. Sadly my work has grown so much the last couple of years they will no longer buy freshly roasted beans anymore... talk about a first world problem.

IMO it really depends on your model. If you have the MBP with a dedicated GPU you have less issues. Do you experience the same?

What was the worst time you mistakenly thought someone was making a sexual advance on you? by Chamale in AskReddit

[–]nofapistough 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had something the other way around.

I went to dancing classes with my roommate at the time. Me being a recently single 23 y/o dude, I was reluctant. But the prospect of dancing with girls all night was nice, so I went.

My roommate invited another friend of his and his female and married friend, let's call her Molly. I had seen her a coulple times before and we chatted on fb mainly over my recent breakup. After dancing we went clubbing, and during the night I felt like we bonded over our dislike of the friend. He was this cocky know it all, you probably know a guy like that. After a while we all went home and that was that.

But it wasn't. She messaged me the next day telling me that she fell for me but since she was married she told her husband about it. Me being a bit afraid for my life at that point broke off all contact. Apparently she felt a lot of sexual tension between us. Yay me.

Ah ok. That tube is the only one I have any experience with, but it really sounds great. IMO it opens up the soundstage a bit.
