"Facebook Consumer Privacy User Profile Litigation Settlement Administrator has sent you $5.09 USD"

Yes I may have been on Facebook at one time, and yes they profited massively off of privacy abuse that oppressive dictators are literally jealous of, but after filling out numerous forms and responding to porrly written sketchy emails, and several years of litigation, look whose buying drink tonight baby!!!

All you privacy suckers here bitchin, and I'm just sittin here gettin paid.

Pay attention America - this is what you do with anti-Democratic leaders if you want to respect and preserve democracy.

I'm curious why I don't hear more about mattercad here or elsewhere? It's free (not FOSS), and for me really fills the gap between tinkercad and most professional cad software. I often see questions about people wanting to move beyond tinkercad but being intimidated by the learning curve and the fairly large jump between it and higher powered software. Mattercad fits so nicely in this space. Yes it's a bit slow once shapes get more complex, and it has some frustrating bugs that I don't think will ever be fixed, but it's both powerful and simple. I'm curious if there are places people think it falls short or if you think I'm wrong and there is a better intermediate software package I should be considering?

I love this so much. I'd love to find one with sound. In the meantime I'm just watching this over and over humming the Rocky theme.

Any recommendations for a compact single cup travel kettle?

I call ahead and many hotels will have a kettle they will drop off in the room which is great but not all do this. I use a Jettle kettle and it's ok. I can pack my grinder inside it. For pouring you need to use a Melo drip but it's still a pretty messy pour. I don't want a full on gooseneck, but is there something really compact that pours a little better? I've seen collapsable ones but those seem like mold incubators. I'd love something like a jettle kettle with a small spout adapter.

I like that Sibarist is out there setting the high bar for coffee filters. Ive played with their filters and quite like them, but for 98% of brewing the price point just isnt justied Imo. I'd argue they are undisputed leaders in high end filters.

I feel like they are just getting pretentious though with this new Halo brewer

A glass jar "inspired by minimalism" should not have a very maximal base model price of $374(sale price!)

I love learning about and trying new brewing techniques, but this one is out of my league and while it's mean-spirited, I'm kind of booing this one and hoping it bombs. I do already love that they refer to it as the "BS" for short.

I'm surprised I can't find any videos or pre release reviews at all on this thing. Anyone here know anything? I'm morbidly curious.

Had a weird black stain on a PETG print. Maybe it was mold? It seemed pretty penetrated into material. Tried windex, all purpose cleaning spray, dawn soap and couldn't get it out. Gave a tide pen a try and it scrubbed right out easily with that!

The Mk4 and some other handheld grinders are meant to have some static charge to catch fines. I typically find that some fines are indeed stuck to the plastic capsule and that quite a bit of hull material tends to stick to the bottom of the grinder. There is also some appropriately sized grind material intermixed especially with the hull material and often a little that sticks to the plastic capsule. For this grinder or others with similar features, I'm curious how aggressive folks are with emptying? Just a gentle dump of the capsule leaving a solid gram or more of material stuck to the grinder (do you compensate recipes at all for this?)? Light tap to dislodge a bit? Multiple taps to get as much off as possible especially from metallic portion of grinder? Also, I've always been a fan of RDT, but that is supposed to reduce static and the Mk4 design is to utilize static to catch fines. Thoughts on whether it's a good idea or not for this grinder? Interested to hear your routine be it scientific/theoretical or just habitual. Thx.

I've been sous viding for years but I always struggle with the darn bags floating. I've tried spoons (what a joke, does nothing for me), magnets, clips. It doesn't matter if I'm cooking three pounds of meat or one little vegetable, my bags always want to float up at least enough that some portion of my cook isn't fully submerged. Others report success with these techniques, and I can usually rig something after several minutes of fussing but it's an ugly ordeal every time. What am I doing wrong? Any good videos of a technique that really works?
