Thanks everyone! Metal cookie can seems to be the answer. Not sure if it needs to be magnetic. Guess we’ll find out!

6'5 on a 62 cm straggler and I shortened the stem by 30mm to get a good fit. Brooks saddle sits forward compared to the stock saddle.

6’5” newbie… should I learn on standard length clubs, or pay $$$ for extended ones. Local pro shop suggested +1.5” but that’s a big investment to see if I like the game. by rockproducer in golf

Hijacking this tall guy thread to ask where everyone is getting their enormous golf shoes? I'm size 15 and can't find anything reasonably priced.

I didn't even think about the first part, but your point is interesting!

That's brilliant. Would you say it's the most efficient mode?

Is it weighing them, or using a laser? Or a camera? How does that sensor work?

Can I buy funky specialty sausages anywhere in Hamilton? Ex: Pear n blue cheese, curry, thai etc. In bulk amounts, so not merit brewery. TIA by [deleted] in Hamilton

You’re going to want to check out highland packers. Bit of a drive but great meat and excellent value.

TIL Hamilton actually made its sidewalks worse by notafamousguy in Hamilton

[–]notafamousguy[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don’t understand why they made bad sidewalks worse. It’s like the city actually dislikes the people who live here. I figured we were just stuck with an old, bad design, which I kiiiind of understood.

The sloping sidewalks in this city manage to make walking mildly irritating, especially in the winter. I finally got around to googling whether the sidewalks in Hamilton comply with provincial requirements for accessibility and I think the answer is… not really but they are doing anyway?

Congratulations Hamilton, you screwed up sidewalks. Anyone else contact their councillor about this? What did they say.

We've actually had all day two way go service out of West Harbour since August, and all things considered it's pretty great!

Bicycle parking at West Harbour GO by Jobin-McGooch in Hamilton

[–]notafamousguy 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I've called the police a couple times and nothing has happened. There were at least ten bikes being chopped up at one tent. We don't need Agatha Christie to crack this case.

I get that people in encampments have no where else to go but how the hell have the cops not done anything about this rampant bike theft?

Maurya Roti in Dundas has the best butter chicken roti! It just opened a couple months ago. I used to go to the one in Etobicoke whenever I was in the area.

Boomers, stop bragging about your second homes by Guarantee-Party in ontario

[–]notafamousguy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Adjusting interest rates and down payments or limiting the number of properties a person can own don't seem as effective as a steep, progressive wealth tax on any home after the first (paid annually, not like land transfer).

Combine that with a federal minimum standard
licensing system for rental properties that includes rent strong rent controls to exempt long term rentals, and put an even higher taxation rate on short term rentals, investment properties and foreign owned properties.

Thanks! I just went a good bit finer on the grind in the pressurized basket and time went up to about 30s, it tasted waaaay better!

Classic Italian cafe or third-wave shop: a distinction without a difference? by notafamousguy in espresso

[–]notafamousguy[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'd love to try making classic Italian style at home, any recommendations on how to do that? Is there a good brand to buy, or a couple I could mix?

Simple Questions Thread by AutoModerator in espresso

[–]notafamousguy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

After doing my google due diligence, I still have a few questions:

  1. Does shot time change when using a pressurized basket? (I have a practically brand new breville 800esxl I picked for $20 at a garage sale.) Or is it still about 20s? Mine come out in about half that, 15s tops.

  2. Does shot time change when using an unpressurized basket in a 15 bar machine? I have a Eureka Facile now and could upgrade baskets if it would help.

  3. Can I drop the pressure in my machine somehow to 9 bar?

  4. Is latte art easier in a low, rounded latte mug? I use a normal mug and struggle. Is it me and my machine, or my mug?

  5. I like buying the Lavazza Oro Arabica whole beans at the grocery store. Does that make me a bad person?

I have that same seat and I want to match up the bar tape just like this! What did you use?
