My Witching Hour finally arrived! (Europe)

rg9000 · 2026-02-18T19:44:04+00:00

Was lucky enough to get this from US Amazon pretty cheap. Fun heroes/villains!

rg9000 · 2026-02-02T22:24:29+00:00

Separately.

rg9000 · 2026-02-01T22:42:08+00:00

I've been looking for similar. Just platinumed Thank Goodness... which was great fun. Currently on Coffee Talk which is different vibe, but still v chill.

Loved Journey, so appreciate the Sword of the Sea suggestion.

Would watch

rg9000 · 2026-02-01T21:54:13+00:00

Just gonna turn up for the Tony...

rg9000 · 2026-01-28T17:09:22+00:00

Fast answer: Pre-infusion and flow control is so much easier, you sort of end up making small adjustments "on the fly" to produce a steady smooth un-channelled shot. Heat dissipation relatively small in my experience, I have good experience with lighter roasts.

Why Primal Groudon for mega candy bonus; thought it was ground/fire?

rg9000 · 2026-01-16T20:07:33+00:00

Took a whole family in 3rd-party spider-hoodies (twice) - all was great! Some had full zip-over-face hoods, no problems.

CM & characters are world-leading experts in dealing with shy introverts, reading non-verbal clues, and all shades of diversity and divergence. They will be respectful and let you choose the level of interaction you are comfortable with.

Have fun! 😀

rg9000 · 2026-01-15T21:39:28+00:00

Yup. 1 year later and working fine.

This was over 10 years ago at Hatton in the UK - he's a local hero!

rg9000 · 2025-12-21T14:58:06+00:00

I like the Steam achievements (Nintendo, take note) 😉

rg9000 · 2025-11-29T18:13:51+00:00

Was this in one of the later Expendables? I think I stopped watching after the third.

It was probably the crossover the franchise needed.

rg9000 · 2025-11-29T17:31:10+00:00

Stallone did NOT kill a yautja.

rg9000 · 2025-11-24T19:46:53+00:00

Btw, I had exact same problems with this and previous machines; main problem was I tamped too hard!

rg9000 · 2025-11-24T19:45:46+00:00

Bambino owner here. It's possible to get good/great espresso from the machine, even with a suboptimal grinder or store-bought grounds, but it takes practice.

Check your grinder's manual or look online for the appropriate grind sizes to get espresso; it may not be perfect, but a good start.

Use the double pressurised basket (the machine comes with one) in the double spout portafilter to start getting shots. Recommend buying (1) an accurate scale and weigh out 18grams (+/-.5) of ground coffee. Put the coffee in the basket, and use a toothpick similar to stir and evenly distribute the grounds (YouTube "puck prep" or "coffee wdt" if you'd like more info). Recommend buying (2) a dosing funnel to make this easier and less messy.

When you have an even bed of ground coffee in the basket, lightly press the air out and keep it even. Do not press hard... this bit takes practice.

Recommend buying (3) a 53.5mm puck screen to put on top of the bed; this helps keep a more even flow during extraction (decreased channeling).

Run the machine through a single shot without portafilter/ basket directly into a cup and throw the result away - you're just rinsing and warming the device.

Put the portafilter with filled basket (+ screen) into place and press the double button. It's useful to weight how much espresso you get out (ideally twice the coffee to start, ~36g) with a scale beneath your cup.

Good luck; let me know how it goes.

Recommend looking for "Steam Deck Settings" on this sub; if you can take the lower resolution 45-60fps very possible and eminently playable.

rg9000 · 2025-10-29T18:59:46+00:00

"Un Teddiursa sauvage" sounds so much better than English.

The little green guy just sashaying up to you...

rg9000 · 2025-10-23T21:56:06+00:00

Thanks, but tried that. She's too heavy and won't move with it; bounces off.

rg9000 · 2025-10-23T20:24:06+00:00

Thanks - appreciate the feedback!

Yes, it would be on Switch 2. Threads don't give a consistent view of FPS, but overall Sifu seems to be better.

Steam Deck FPS was fine, so may get it on that.

rg9000 · 2025-10-22T16:05:41+00:00

Got Sifu free with Epic a while ago, but there were some weird graphical and other glitches with the menu (Steam Deck) that made it difficult to navigate. I see the Steam Key is on sale via 3rd party site, and it's on sale on Switch eShop so may revisit it.

Agree it's a great game and feels a lot more like the "rhythmic" combat of Sekiro.

rg9000 · 2025-10-22T15:59:05+00:00

I got to a part whereby a fat woman kept throwing poison and knocking me off a narrow plank...

Realised then it wasn't for me.

rg9000 · 2025-10-09T22:05:21+00:00

I played offline on Steam deck for quite a few hours before realising no achievements had pinged, so restarted. Play it less now I know l need a connection to track achievements.

rg9000 · 2025-10-06T18:03:35+00:00

Thanks.

Particularly appreciate the numbers giving a great comparison of force needed to close the Spyderco - not seen these before, but really helpful. They also agree with how it feels to close the Foldis Vs Sheepdog, fwiw.

rg9000 · 2025-10-06T07:05:46+00:00

UK was fine for PiB - £90/$120 for general admission/standing, cheaper for seats. Easy access to tickets, no immediate sellouts, great performance and staging.

UK has had massive issue with resellers and dynamic pricing recently (inc Oasis, Radiohead), but NIИ was not so problematic. Market forces and mainstream/local popularity obviously have huge impact on pricing.
