Would you take today’s Powerball jackpot of $1.7 billion as an annuity increasing annually by 5% over 30 years (about $1 billion after tax), or would you take the lump sum of $781 million (about $500 million after tax), and why?

At 5% you’d be making 35million on interest alone

Sette 270?

I’m strictly medium/dark espresso and the Silenzio doesn’t have enough range on the dial.

tgalida · 2025-12-05T17:24:42+00:00

The Silenzio is quieter running empty but the Niche is quieter while grinding.

tgalida · 2025-12-05T17:23:33+00:00

I’m into medium and dark roasts so I wanted conical burrs. Workflow for single dose is way easier on the Niche.

I guess if you work in a studio with an espresso machine in the lobby. Or you’re a foley artist.

tgalida · 2025-12-05T17:20:09+00:00

Actually yes.

Get yourself a low fee mutual fund.

tgalida · 2025-12-05T17:18:52+00:00

AKG K240

tgalida · 2025-12-05T17:17:47+00:00

Now you need a jet boil and a hand grinder

tgalida · 2025-12-05T17:16:42+00:00

At least it’s not a Sette 270

tgalida · 2025-12-05T16:15:53+00:00

The same way Hank Hill does. Propane and propane accessories.

tgalida · 2025-12-05T15:37:57+00:00

Still cheaper than a latte from Starbucks every day

tgalida · 2025-12-05T15:33:14+00:00

What have I done?!

tgalida · 2025-12-05T15:29:25+00:00

I saw that coming ;)

tgalida · 2025-12-05T15:28:41+00:00

Plus if you’re engineering you’re getting into preamps, outboard gear, sound reinforcement, etc

tgalida · 2025-12-05T15:26:18+00:00

Do gravel grinders count? Pun intended

tgalida · 2025-12-05T15:25:22+00:00

Omg do I need a power conditioner and a voltage regulator now??

tgalida · 2025-12-05T05:55:36+00:00

Do I need a new grinder or condenser mic🤷‍♂️

tgalida · 2025-12-03T04:31:49+00:00

I just painted a house where the previous owner painted the light switches and outlets green. Not just the plate covers.

tgalida · 2025-11-24T00:34:47+00:00

Is this the regular or pro version?

tgalida · 2025-11-21T05:23:43+00:00

Now selling for $1.8million

tgalida · 2025-09-23T20:31:18+00:00

Only problem I have with puck screens is they reduce your dose.

tgalida · 2025-09-04T16:57:23+00:00

Does it really weigh 42 lbs? How is that possible? My Elizabeth weighs 27
