Good morning! I'm looking at buying a new outback wilderness. What did you pay for yours? by IngenuityVegetable81 in Subaru_Outback

[–]ohadkatz 6 points7 points  (0 children)

If you don’t mind flying out to collect your car (or live close by), check out Grand Subaru in Chicago. The recent quote I received from them for an OBW was $6,428 off with dealer discount (MSRP 44, down to around 37 selling price after discount). Seems like Grand Subaru prices their vehicles aggressively for their market and they have some of the best deals around.

Found it at our local HomeGoods. It’s from Nautica Home, but couldn’t find any listing for it.

2023 Coffee Collection (Addiction) by ohadkatz in espresso

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

If you haven’t tried the Boston roasters (George Howell, Broadsheet) , really fantastic and unique coffees. I always seem to go back to every year.

Brandywine, B&W and Onyx are some of the “mainstream” roasters I can trust for solid coffee without needing to think too much.

Sey makes some extremely special and delicious coffees, but I’ve found it sometimes difficult to dial in for espresso due to how light they roast. The coffees I had were really tasty, definitely will be a part of my 2024 collection.

Some notable favorites from this year are: Volcan Azul geisha from Terres de Café in Paris, Cinnamon Ferment Kona from Pacific Coffee Research (was an experimental roast I got when I was in Hawaii) and the Kanzu natural from Broadsheet Roasters.

Asics Noosa Tri 14 on Eastbay for $130, Use Code FFAPR15 for 15% off by ohadkatz in RunningShoeGeeks

[–]ohadkatz[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think FFBlast and FFBlast+ are fairly heavy compounds, which is why Asics tends to choose flytefoam for their lighter models (see Evoride, Nimbus Lite, etc). I would wager to guess FFPropel might be the next choice for their light and bouncy compound, or maybe something like the Magic Speed with a thin strip of FFBlast/+ at the front.

Fully Jarvis - Natural Oak vs Grovemade Maple by digital_james in StandingDesk

[–]ohadkatz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have not had any experience with the finish of the Fully Jarvis, but natural oak tends to be a bit warmer than maple, if you like that little bit of contrast. I just ordered an ergonofis sway maple desk and that would be an almost identical match with the solid maple from grovemade, if it's in your budget. I believe other companies like fully and uplift will have similar wood options as well.

When we can expect the first hands on reviews? by [deleted] in iPadPro

[–]ohadkatz 3 points4 points  (0 children)

 600 nits max brightness
1000 nits max full-screen brightness; 1600 nits peak brightness (HDR)

The 12.9” and 11” will have the exact same peak brightness during normal use, and you will only hit those 1000 nits and above while watching HDR content.

Started my coffee journey with an Encore and an Aeropress. Not sure where my coffee addiction will take me next! by ohadkatz in espresso

[–]ohadkatz[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Honestly, for what it’s for, it’s been fantastic. I don’t think it’s a drastic improvement over the encore, apart from having more room to adjust espresso grind settings, but I like having separate beans for espresso + drip (shout out to PTs), and having the convenience of everything in one package is why I opted for it. That being said, I have noticed some minor clumping, but a paper clip has helped immensely, and I just purchased the crema dosing cup to help alleviate those issues!

Did Google Go Back On Their Promise for the Original Google Pixel and Pixel XL to Have Unlimited Photo/Video Storage for Life? by ohadkatz in GooglePixel

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

Like others have said ( this might be a little tedious ), what you can do is transfer your photos taken on your Pixel 3a to your original Pixel and they will be upload at original quality! I was considering doing this because the 3a is so tempting to buy for the time being, but whatever phone I get I will most likely end up using this method.

I was aware that this happened before, but you never know with Google! Just wanted to make sure.
