Just because you want it to be hot back there doesn’t mean we all do.

Anyone that even for a second thinks option B is correct, needs to find a corner and think about their life choices for a few hours.

174k on that plug would be pretty good going. I’ve seen them under 150k where the negative has worn down to the bend.

100% agree, we are in a far better situation now. I was really hoping he would be beyond reproach, and we could completely turn a corner on the the political sleaze, even if it is just a few suits and football tickets.

I know you’re right, but if it wasn’t for Apple dropping iOS support the X is still a perfectly good phone. I’m seriously considering waiting another year and hoping my banking apps continue to work.

Ironically I did think about getting the Apple Watch X for the first time, but they all require a minimum of the iPhone Xs

The preferential treatment was that the body cams were just muted during the cover up and not all accidentally turned off for the entire encounter, not getting beaten up, tased or shot.

I mean as far as preferential treatment goes I’d take that deal, but the fact remains he was pulled out of his car, roughed up, taken to the floor and handcuffed for 18minutes for no reason when the cop should have been writing him a (dubious) ticket.

There are at least 2 cops here who should not be cops and the rest need to be retrained to ensure they step in if they see mistreatment like this again, for face being fired.

On the X and wondering if the Max is too much of a jump for me. Although it’s another year where I’m not really seeing a big reason to upgrade.

Big fan BTW, your lounge chairs are cool AF.

Thank you, as a TPM1.0 pc owner I did how borked a forced Win11 install would be.

Ooh not sure we have those in the UK, we do have San Francisco Bay coffee beans which are good but Lavazza is smoother. I did wonder if the San Fran was just for us in Europe so we had “Exotic American” coffee.

I’m an advocate for separate grinder and espresso machines, just seems like an unnecessary complication, and the combo machines seem to take up more space than both the dedicated ones.

If you are looking at the lower end of the market, spare parts and repairability are often nonexistent or afterthoughts at best. If combo machine breaks you now have to get another combo or buy the separates, and even the best value combo is more $ than comparable separates.

Well I’ve asked Santa for an AeroPress for Christmas, I take a French press camping but we broke it this year. Planning on getting the metal filter, and finding out myself.

Do you have a Costco near you? I usually get Lavazza beans when it’s on offer for £10/$13 per kg (~2lbs) but Amazon sometimes have it cheaper delivered. One word of warning though, the Kirkland coffee beans are terrible, no idea how they make It so bitter.

Also have you tried a re-usable metal filter for your AeroPress?

Do you just roast it in your home oven? Does it make your house smell like a Starbucks knock box?

Just had this conversation with my partner who wanted to get a Nespresso (no idea why). I also have an espresso machine and have 2 large coffees a day, a 1kg bag of beans is £10 ( $13) and lasts over a month. Espresso machine and a grinder is the most eco and pocket friendly way.

The title is misleading, this is new legalisation, the current amount that has to be refunded is £0.

It’s in consultation, £415k would be nice… but £85k is still better than nothing, and will fully protect the vast majority of fraud victims.

The subscription lets you use the App ad free and some other bits like their food guide, and most of the time it’s real journalism without the usual right wing bias… which apparently makes it left wing… but to me it’s just center/apolitical.

The Guardian does a weekly magazine of their long form articles. I’ve impulse bought it a few times when going on long journeys and it’s very good.

I’ve considered subscribing but it’s £18 per month (discounted from £27 for the 1st year) and that’s a lot for me.

Ah yes I always forget about the archive!

I was so close… petrified businesses not ruined businesses, they are just scared of being ruined.

I generally don’t believe anything printed by the Torygraph. I’m not going to donate my data or any money to them so I can only read the headline, I’m guessing they are putting a really negative spin on it? ‘Labour will tank the economy’ and make things much harder for already ruined businesses (while not mentioning what spent the last 14 years ruining them)

I’ll just be glad to be well enough to get back to work, a 4 day week may get me back much sooner.

What has happened?
