on Moka Pot or AeroPress · c/coffee · 7 pts · 3y

I own both. I daily use my AeroPress. I use my Moka about twice a month. They’re both great brewers, but the Moka isn’t for making a good daily cup or espresso. The coffee you get from it is unique. If you make a lot of milk beverages, I think the Moka is a decent way to make coffee for that use, but you’ll also need a good way to froth and steam your milk.

I’d go with an AeroPress and check out the various brew methods available to achieve your desired results.

If Angela told him when she was invited, he could maybe have made sure to provide something vegetarian, but when you have a unique dietary choice, it’s on you to communicate it.

I eat a keto diet. People who know me are usually pretty thoughtful to provide a low carb option when they have me over, but I don’t get angry with someone for not going out of their way to guess at my dietary choices.

And after Diwali, it becomes clear that Angela plays the vegetarian card to justify outrage even when it’s not justified.

I mean… they can. I drive a Maverick. My bed easily fits a riding mower, a weed eater, pressure washer, pole saw, and all the manual yard tools I could need for working on other people’s yards.

And my wife and children can also comfortably ride in it when I’m using it for family transportation. And I average 43 miles to the gallon.

Not every truck needs a full size bed, and four doors doesn’t make a truck less useful but more.

$2.99 a month for an un-skippable ad at the beginning of a video is the threshold for me. Anything more than that and I’m just not interested. Make the length and cost of the ad itself commensurate to the length of the video it precedes. I hate watching videos that are chopped up into bits with thoughts interrupted at random.

  1. A modest house.
  2. A second (functioning) vehicle for my family.
  3. Some apartments that I can turn into transitional housing for houseless and/or low income families, along with a staff of full time handymen, social workers, and counselors for facilities and transitional support.
  4. Create a healthcare fund/endowment investment managed by someone competent. It would be used to pay medical collections debts using the interest it draws.
  5. I dunno. A billion dollars goes a long way. Well above and beyond any amount I ever anticipate needing, let alone having. Maybe some Picassos to hang in my modest house.

Binder clips are up there with duct tape for the number of times they’ve been a good quick fix! Good chance to stock up and keep a few tubes on hand.

My policy has been to buy multiples of any part I replace. I’ve got a dozen tubes, a hundred nozzles, two beds, and a couple extra belts in my “spare parts” box at the moment. It helps that, often, buying multiple parts seems to drop the overall price per unit by a good bit.
