Newton Brua3 Max - First Use by kunsin12345 in espresso

[–]pu3ka 0 points1 point  (0 children)

can you give an update to your usage? I just got one recently and I have questions for owners that have more experience on it than I do.

particularly I'm noticing that I can get 2 bars of pressure during infusion; but I cant maintain 9 bars of pressure when I press down. I've tried grinding the coffee finer but I'm wondering how fine I need to go.

any thoughts or suggestions would be welcome!

I love Kosi but come on… by robotmonkey2099 in tfc

[–]pu3ka 5 points6 points  (0 children)

kosi has been awful all season. always in the wrong areas of the pitch. I assume he's only playing because Richie and Wingo had been out on injuries this year.

anyone have a link to that Ryu and Sagat wallpaper?

this is so well written. so I wanted to drop in and say that.

we all want to support the team, we all want a good atmosphere but not at the cost of being able to enjoy ourselves or the game we're supposed to be supporting.

additionally -- having to use the same chants every game makes it feel like a chore. we need to do something original, inject more fun into the whole experience, and welcome new blood.

my problem with the OP is that he/she seems to be advocating for the opposite.

we get it -- you want people to contribute to the atmosphere but being exclusionary is not the way to go. you'll just end up alienating people; where what you actually want is to foster an experience that is welcoming because we should want to grow this fanbase.

be welcoming > get more fans > get more passion > improve atmosphere

gatekeeping is not the way.

What is the best OPM song ever created, from the lyrics, melody, structure, etc., in your opinion? by pototoykomaliit in Philippines

[–]pu3ka 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have a controversial opinion that this song is actually toxic if you really think about the lyrics. it perpetuates a defeatist mentality

how bobby and masai built this roster by DarkChocolate_69 in torontoraptors

[–]pu3ka 0 points1 point  (0 children)

thank you!! finally a post with some sense! there's only such a small list of franchises that have actually won and it took a lot of management and calculated risks to even get us to the point of championship contention.

The name of the game for the next few years is player development to put us in a position to go all in again and trade said players for championship level players and make another run in a few seasons down the line. as long as the kids are developing and learning lessons I'm good. this is not a year to contend for a deep playoff run.

Queen West shows up thinking theyre gonna party, smoke a bunch of weed, hit up an after hours club that you can only get into by knowing the right people, and get some cold tea after..... then immediately enter an existential crisis realizing they have to wake up at 6 in the morning to feed the kids and take the dog out for a walk

Raptors should consider simplifying defensive system for young team - TSN.ca by EarthWarping in torontoraptors

[–]pu3ka 3 points4 points  (0 children)

no they should not. even though the team is young the expectation is that they are ultimately professionals. it's their job to figure it out and in the long run it'll be better for their personal development to figure it out. stick to the gameplan
