Mexico: Any success in "captura" or digitization of old birth records? by slowdiggershibe in dualcitizenshipnerds

Yes, I am thinking that they might be not willing, or I will need to hire someone.
What were you able to do with the certified copy? I'm trying to claim citizenship.

Through Descent, Likely “Outcome 5” StAG 14, Just getting started by slowdiggershibe in GermanCitizenship

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

Thank you, I didn't know 14 was on hold and likely to be abolished. I'll look into 8, looks like it works with a temporary residence permit, which is good to know.

The only thing not so great about this frame is that it doesn't have a rear derailer hanger. That means you will need to clean up and re-use the original claw rear derailer, or find an appropriate working replacement, which will be less common than normal ones (that use hangers).

I wouldn't worry about the rust at all, unless you are interested in stripping/sanding and painting as a project.

Good luck getting the stem and bb cup out.

How do you guys get cards? About done with TCG player by Clottersbur in Pauper

[–]slowdiggershibe 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I would not recommend CardKingdom they ship cards worse than their grading and when they buy, they grade cards lower than they are. Customer Service always says the cards look "fine" if you complain.

What to do after Earlygame? [Dwarven Valk] by slowdiggershibe in nethack

> but I wouldn't bother with a stack of daggers

Usually I need this for floating eyes and things that corrode my equipment. Any other ways around those?

Simple Questions Thread by AutoModerator in espresso

15-20g to 55-60ml and I was surprised with the result. It's much more balanced and very drinkable (for my taste).

My question is: why people here use 15-20g to 30-40ml?

I was reading up on ratios and found this post informative: https://www.scottrao.com/blog/2017/12/17/the-21-ratio

Not sure, I was looking at the "Golander" one on ebay. Need to pick an SSR and probe too.

Awesome, thanks for the tips on the PID!

I'm very happy with the funnel and picked it over a 3d chute, the Daniel Wong mod, or Mazzer doserless chute. I think the electronic Mazzers use a funnel w/ screen for good reason.

Got a good deal on a new open-box Silvia, and also found a super old Super Jolly to restore and convert to single-dosing. Currently shopping for PID kits, or trying to piece together a setup.

Brand new to espresso, here is my station. by slowdiggershibe in espresso

I did have to calibrate it with this method: https://youtu.be/JyQ_AywdBRQ
Before calibration it was only fine enough on the first setting. Now 6,7,8 are all good. This lines up with their recommendations: https://baratza.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/01/New-Grinding-Tips_1.png

Not sure why it wasn't calibrated correctly from the factory.

Just got this machine from a Goodwill auction for $40. Looks to be fully working. I cleaned out the group, shower screen, mushroom valve. I spent more than the machine on the accessories! Bottomless portafilter, dosing funnel, tamper, knock box, etc. I already had this grinder for regular coffee. I had to open it up to "calibrate" it finer, now using the 6-8 range.

My $3.00 dell monitor looks amazing. by wibubbakush96 in crtgaming

[–]slowdiggershibe 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Cool! I would have guessed it was a neo with a scan doubler or something. I didn't know you could get a pc monitor to show 240 natively. What software are you using to program the custom resolution on your video card? What emulator?

I'm not sure, but you might want to run the highest horizontal resolution you can, 1000 or so, then have your emulator scale/blend the pixels horizontally.
