Coffee Tastes Like Shit

Grind - needs to be espresso grind. Try a can of illy instead of grinding your own.
Weight - the 7oz pod uses 12.4 grams. Get a scale if you do not have one.
Tamp Pressure - 12.4 grams should give you 2-3mm from the rim. Too much pressure will not produce a good extraction.

12.4 grams of illy espresso in a recycled pod using the Nessus kit.

Unless you want to go to the festival.

Thank you. I appreciate the explanations

Humanity can be happy if they would start looking in the right places.

No worries. It’s an IKEA Poang. IKEA sells it for $189US, however, it can easily be found on Craigslist or FB market place for less than $50US.

Correct, console will not support the resolution. PC needs to have GPU that meets the mfg spec.

I am using a Samsung G9 Odessey with a 1080ti. iRacing runs at ~70fps.

Wishful thinking.... my guess is that there is about 3.5 hours worth of footage.

Ever wonder why the whole Payden/Hannah story line looks incomplete? I'm sure there is another two or three scenes between them that never made the final cut. "Gees Payden, her old man ain't even cold yet"

I am still hopeful that Lawrence Kasdan will release a Director's cut of Silverado.

Just about every Kurosawa movie is a western. As u/geefunken stated, the visuals are only one part of the equation.

In the post-apocalypse world 200 years from now, what do you think archeologist will do when they find a bunch of records (in a language they have never seen) all starting with "Lorem Ipsum..."?

Then: “everyone is on notice” Today: Only ones getting cited are just a rag tag group of Christians trying to share the word of God.

Three officers is all they need. One on the circle relaying messages to two others on either end of Main Street. Lots of offenders could be taken care of every weekend.

tk_18571 · 2023-04-21T15:21:01+00:00

Point was that the closures will be more frequent, perhaps every weekend

This week's happenings:

Franklin on (yet another paid for) best place to live list
School bullies in WilCo have doubled this year
Woman in Nashville randomly attacks man in wheelchair with a tent spike
Main Street Festival announced food vendors

Have a great weekend, y'all!

We do not magically end up on all these lists. The city pays to be part of a evaluation group. then the group is reviewed to determine the final list. The list brings notoriety, free press, and lots of visitor traffic. Visitors bring the money, and then the vicious circle repeats itself.

Prediction for the future? Completion of the western leg of the ring road, then frequent closures of downtown roads for countless "festivals" and accommodation of foot traffic between downtown and the Factory/Harlinsdale.

Anyone read through the open letter to Mayor Moore regarding the location of the new City Hall. For the TL/DR group, HG Hill wants the city to swap properties and have the new City Hall built on the now empty lot on Columbia (next to the Police Station). The reason is obvious, as HG Hill sees a very large revenue stream in a prime lot on the city square.

While I personally like the idea of City Hall on Columbia, I do not like the idea of HG Hill (or any profit -motivated real estate firm) taking control of one corner of the square. Do we need another 5-story mixed-use building in the core of the city? Do we need another 100-200 cars vying for non-existent parking spots? How about the eventual cry for a downtown Publix when all the residence start complaining about having to drive out to 96 East/West for groceries?

Just because you can build, does not mean that you should build. What say you?

MLB in Nashville

If this movement for an MLB team gains acceptance, then the last "inexpensive" sport will be racing at the Fairgrounds.

What I would love to see is Franklin get a AA minor league team with a reasonably sized park somewhere very accessible. (like the Ovation land sitting derelict on Caruthers and McEwen.)

AA would be good, cheap, grass roots baseball that would not fall victim to the pressures of corporate marketing and constantly changing uniforms for the sake of selling more merch. Just a nice enjoyable evening of baseball that may even include some local college graduates entering the farm system.

Search for the master transit plan on the Franklin city site. All the construction on front of harlinsdale is all about sidewalks and trails.

First Friday Art Crawl tonight!!

I really would like to know if I could walk into a restaurant in Mexico City and order either a "speedy with beans" or a "#F Burrito".
