  • I’ll second the kingrinder k6. I use it for my daily routine, and mostly make French press and moka pot, which seems pretty on brand for your use. It can go extremely fine or more coarse. Grinding on finer settings takes a little extra work, but grinding an 18 gram dose of beans on 90 click seeing for use in a French press takes about 45 seconds to a minute. I can have a French press or moka pot fully prepped for hot water before my kettle boils, so I don’t find the time to grind an issue. Also, manual grinders are quieter if that is an issue with early morning brews and others still sleeping.




  • Yeah, I guess they could use the term point-to-point like point of sales systems define it, but it seems a little semantic. If the images are encrypted on the camera device, and only decrypted once the contents reach the secured analysis environment, then I don’t see how this is misleading customers. Even in the context of messaging apps, users understand that the receiver can decrypt and see the message; it’s saying that no intermediary party can.

    But good grief, I can’t fathom putting a camera in my toilet. I feel bad for folks that are either too worried about their health, or have such issues that this is helpful. There but for the grace of fiber go I.







  • If you get paralyzed picking which story game to play next, maybe getting really picky about which ones make the list and then literally roll the dice or use an RNG generator to pick one. If they are all good, and your gameplay spread across a long time with work and kids, then any “mood” you are in, in the moment, will be averaged out over time. If you get into a game and find it really just isn’t for you, give yourself permission to move on.

    In short, make the decision less consequential to avoid paralysis. That was my method anyway, being in similar situation with life time constraints.





  • I’m not saying it doesn’t happen, but I can’t think of a single one of my kids story books that has ads. “Bear stays up for Christmas,” “llama llama nighty night,” and “if you give a mouse a cookie” amongst several dozen more come to mind that I don’t recall anything resembling an ad in.

    Shows, yes, all the time.




  • My favorite IRS notices are the scary you owe us letters that always say somewhere in normal font “if you have already paid or started a payment plan you can disregard this notice.” Sometimes you can get those letters months after paying. To be fair, my taxes are complicated, but boy do they really need Congress to give them money to modernize their systems.
