    Favorite commercially available coffee?

    My favorite coffees are from Northern Europe (Gevalia is from Sweden for example). Something about how those are slow roasted and fast-cooled (snap) for a super smooth cup just does it for me. Now with any coffee bean, they’re not grown near NA or Europe for that matter so there’s that cost to...

    Scammers

    I agree in that I too do not think a public thread or forum shaming scammers is worth the risk. At the end of the day, scammer can simply turn around and make a new account and continue on because they're criminals and that's what they do. Conversely, the litigious risk to TD is outrageous and...

    I was taken advantage of by an internet confidence trickster.

    I am sorry you experienced this. Not only did he take your money, he took advantage of the community through you and in the process damaged your relationships & standing. That is reprehensible behavior. I got taken about 8 years ago by an online retro mac POS - eerily similar paths. I too chalk...

    No. 😝

    You could always thank him for keeping it real by providing the very reasonable price of $975 pesos.

    There is a huge difference in output of commercial gas range burners that drive 35000+ BTUs vs residential at around 15k BTUs that are pictured in that video. Having used both commercial gas and induction, it is my opinion that commercial gas is superior to commercial induction. I believe...

    So, speaking of prosumer grade induction, my dad has a Wolf brand professional grade oven for residential homes and it has an induction top and lovely knobs. It is pretty quick to heat up and I have cooked on it for them numerous times. I agree with you that I underspent on my oven with...

    I've had it...

    The touch screen on my stove/oven sometimes does not work right. It seems to be an issue of circuit board creep because all the buttons work well when using the range but if Im using the oven for an extended period of time, it heats up the panel and then some of the buttons don't work. It is the...

    I've had it...

    You sound like me LOL. I was just complaining to my wife about this yesterday after a few loads of wash. I can not stand those long press features. To be fair, if I were to give them any benefit, those panels are easier to clean I guess.

    Immutable Characteristic: Transness

    Then that is what we can say. We value diversity and all viewpoints. I think this is great. It represents everyone, all groups, equally. It has a starting point ie; We as in Tinker Different value diversity as in everyone, and all view points as in everyones perspective has value. This is much...

    LOL'd at that one :D Good thing I just finished my coffee :) That IS hilarious and I agree. I like dials and buttons, not wonky tactile-ness UI.

    Immutable Characteristic: Transness

    Agreed. Our lives are inundated with these stresses. Tinker Different is an amazing space where none of that junk is brought into the conversation. We're just friends talking about tinkering (and alot of computer stuff) and for me, that is such a fantastic gift. That is why I come here. Even...

    Immutable Characteristic: Transness

    This perspective makes great sense to me. Examples of the existing code failing our community as it stands is a great first step in understanding if there is any problem, systemic or otherwise that needs to be addressed at all. To my knowledge, there have been no direct examples of minority...

    Immutable Characteristic: Neurodiversity/Neurodivergence

    I say this with the utmost humility. The focus here should be on self control, self reflection, and intelligence of self. I am also part of the neurodivergent crowd as you state that you are *fist bump* . It is my belief that we as neurodivergent people (ie: the minority) understanding our own...

    Verizon 5G internet

    It has been great. I don't regret the move to VZW at all. In every way, it has been superior to ADSL through my phone carrier. Set up was a breeze - plugged it in, found the network and have been on since. I have had a two times where service did not stop but did slow down over the past 6 months...

    Regarding ban on 2024-01-29

    Oh my, you are a human being. Crazy how that human condition flares up from time to time. :) The important measure is to learn from it and put steps/policy in place to be better tomorrow than we are today. it sounds like everyone has. I appreciate everything you and your team do for us.

    Recommendations: What Flavor Linux To Run On My G4 Mirror Door? (I'm New To Linux)

    GIMP is a solid replacement for PS and OpenOffice is a very nicely polished alternative to word/office suite.

    Recommendations: What Flavor Linux To Run On My G4 Mirror Door? (I'm New To Linux)

    Remix was perfect out of the box for me as well on my pmg5. The issue I had was defunct repositories so it was hard to get apps. Still, even with the very old arctic fox it came with, the browser worked pretty well for most web and I was able to add other features like docky, neofetch and conky...
