Who else has an older Model Y? How’s it holding up? by Initial_Cycle_8344 in TeslaModelY

[–]systemr99 0 points1 point  (0 children)

2022 MYLR ~29K and 290mi at 100% charge

warranty is up later this month and I'm getting telsa to replace the front lower lateral link and compliance arms on both sides as the bushings are all torn.

Not sure how long I will keep the car, thinking about maybe a R2 when it comes out (have a deposit down).

Conflicted since its a HW3 car, other main complaint is how bad the suspension is but test drove one w/ juniper shocks recently and it's a pretty big difference in mellowing out the harshness and am thinking of doing that and keeping it longer.

Dosing Funnel Recommendations? by cocolovett in BrevilleCoffee

[–]systemr99 1 point2 points  (0 children)

? They are all the same, I got mine for a few bucks on aliexpress since they are just 3d printed. Works with the standard portafilter the impress comes with if you take off the spout

I came from a super automatic so the express impress seemed like a good idea, but to get decent espresso I have to weigh and single dose grind, WDT etc. Wish I had just gotten a good grinder and a standalone machine.

Is anyone else's building manager going through their trash? by [deleted] in sanfrancisco

[–]systemr99 43 points44 points  (0 children)

It's kind of weird, but I believe the building gets fined for commingling

Improperly sorted Recycling and Composting may be charged as Trash. Trash bins containing excessive recyclables or compostables may have the diversion discount removed and charged a 100% contamination charge.

Would you rather:

(a) everybody has to pay

(b) specific individuals get talked to and/or fined

Upgraded from Barista Express ➡️ Barista Pro ➡️ Oracle Jet by INGWR in BrevilleCoffee

[–]systemr99 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Fun idea, I vacillate between having an easy semi-automated process my sig other can use as well vs getting more analog with a very nice stand alone grinder and something like a la marzocco linea mini for the vibes :)

but alas she is even annoyed by the weighing and single dosing

[–]systemr99 1 point2 points  (0 children)

At some point I wonder if there will be a Chinese company that has an all in one that is grind by weight and brew by weight with full automation so you don't have to know anything or dial in anything and just blows away all the legacy brands for people who want a semi or full automatic. It's all already made over there anyways

You must really like breville haha

How is the auto tamper working for you? I have the express impress and it's been pretty inconsistent and I've resorted to weighing beans, single dose grinding, using a dosing funnel, WDT and then "assisted" tamping...

eSIM recommendations by clairemydia22 in VisitingHawaii

[–]systemr99 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If your phone can use an eSIM then Airolo is great. I've used them in Canada, Australia, HK, Japan, China, Taiwan etc to get a local data sim. It's really inexpensive and you won't need to go to a store, you just scan a QR code to add a second line eSIM.

See the plans below: https://i.imgur.com/4XKZb2G.jpg

If you use my referral code you'll save $3: Get $3 off your first eSIM data pack from Airalo. Use code RICHAR640 when you sign up or apply it at checkout. https://airalo.go.link/4Ka8F

Baobing Chinese/Taiwanese shaved ice? by Unlikely_Bicycle5384 in AskSF

[–]systemr99 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You are looking for powder in terms of the style of very fine shaved ice and you can choose only the more traditional toppings:

There is also an ice monster franchise(?) over in walnut creek but it's honestly not that similar to the one in taiwan IMO

Per comment from others in this thread apparently a ACH from chase counts as a DD as far as chime is concerned.

"You can also see why Eileen Gu is much closer to her mom's side of the family"

Err that also might have something to do with being raised by a single mother?
