That’s the beauty of James and what he represents for those of us in the deep coffee scene. It’s both.

Coffee is incredibly complex and nuanced. It’s got everything James talked about and then some it feels like. With that though, it’s easy to get lost in the pretentiousness of it rather than just enjoying it for its primary focus: to be coffee.

Definitely makes sense! Thanks for the response!

Why did Germany kill more Polish Jews (by percentage) than its own German Jews? Were they just part of the war machine and weren’t deemed as “enemies” yes?

Huh, you really don’t think of Cameroon and Eritrea as having their shit together.

That’s quitter talk. Give the machine more gas for the ass (chair). The chair only needs to be stable for a while anyways. It’s here for a good time, not a long time.

Even at 2500 that’s insanely cheap. You could print a brand new toilet when yours breaks. You could create furniture for guests custom fitted to their unique ass right as they enjoy a party. It’s beautiful

Read the article, it’s not educators, it’s other food service workers in CA school districts. Teachers in Cali are typically 80k starting now and by year 3-5 most are already at 100k.

Food service workers are difficult for schools because they’re typically non-full time jobs. They only work 3-4 hours a day. I’ve always been a big proponent of districts combining jobs like food service worker and campus monitor, or buss drivers and food services since they typically don’t overlap on time(s) worked. You often already see school food service workers acting as yard duties for the cafeteria anyway, may as well pay them for part of that and keep them around after for keeping an eye on campus.

When using the mocha pot I always recommend the Cuban coffee I make. I stole the recipe from some Cuban restraints in San Francisco.

Mocha pot of coffee. One cinnamon stick in the cup. A spoon of sweetened condensed milk. Scalded milk.

Stir together. No I don’t have any specifics, but if balanced well it’s beautiful and perfect.

Supervised mode gives you basically all the cool options post IOS 12. That said, it’s been about 4 years since I’ve done any of that registration stuff and I know it changed a lot during the pandemic. So it could be easier now.

Configurator if you have a MacOS device already and want the OG. Plus it does allow for device supervision. Although you may have to register as an enterprise system for that. That’s really going to be the key thing here as last time I recall signing my org up for MDM we had to provide tax documents.

Apple uses JAMF, and their prices are so low and it’s so easy that for strictly Apple devices I’d go that route. I do believe there is an on prem version of Jamf as well, but you still pay yearly for it.

There’s also Hexcloud, whatever VMware is calling there’s now, and technically sccm can do device MDM.

Main benefits come from supervised mode. On iPads you can enable multi user support with sign in. You can remove access to messaging or other apps, but beyond that the differences between MDM and parental locks aren’t as wide.

This is true, but it also helps to wet the paper so that the coffee goes into the cup/carafe. By wetting the paper when you go to pour in the first bit of water it’s not the strongest coffee being absorbed into the paper. It also helps to loosen up the fibers and get everything settled rather than having it settle while there’s coffee in there. I also use it as an opportunity to ensure I’m getting the paper to stick to the sides so that if I accidentally pour on the side of the filter and down the cone it will still interact with the coffee grounds.

As you said too, if you use a porcelain cone it helps to heat it up so you can maintain brew temps. Most plastic cones may not see this benefit though.

Since there’s approximately 17,000 Subway Sandwich locations across 100 countries outside the United States I’m gonna say that most people can just imagine 12 (maybe 13 if we assume the 11in subway lawsuit) full size Subway Sandwiches stacked on top of each other.

12ft1in.io

Go as small as possible so that our ladder only has to get slightly longer. Plus I’m petty.

12ft.io is a website that allows you to bypass paywalls on websites. Specifically for articles/news. The idea being “show me a 10ft wall and I’ll build a 12ft ladder.” It worked well against a lot of article and news outlet paywalls originally, but as time has gone on more and more sites are starting to show up on it as unable to bypass.

My first “smart watch” was a pebble and I still think it was the best. People want everything to do everything these days rather than pebble which did watch stuff well and for days without charging, while simply showing you phone notifications. It wasn’t complex, didn’t offer a ton of extras, but it just worked well.

1000 subs and yet a strange lack of cocks and tails on this sub. Things that make you go hmmm.

Absolutely amazing! I’ll have to post up the Mezcal plane (paper plane with Mezcal, needs a better name???) that I had a subscriber here recommend.

Metro UI was and still is a sexy AF interface. The widget tiles had a motion to them that was delicate and beautiful. It was just such a beautiful OS. I’ve kept most of the phones I’ve ever owned because I like them and of the 10 or so I’ve done through over the last 13 years especially my two favorites are my windows phones an HTC 8x and a Nokia Lumia 1020.

Windows Phone and webOS were amazing. Not just for their time, but even today. Major advancements in mobile OS’ came from WebOS like multi window task managing and my favorite feature of all came from Windows Phone. The most perfect on screen keyboard man has ever made. Specifically with audio. It had click sounds that were specific to a region of the keyboard and it was a low tone that was audibly pleasing. I wish we still had the same levels of competition that we did back in the day. Link to a video about the pleasing typing sounds on windows phone

I need you to understand that me saying “Boost is pulling a Google ads SDK and that’s their terms of service” isn’t me saying it’s ok. Me saying “you’re not more valuable than the data” is also not me saying it’s ok. Both of those things can be true while it’s still not ok. The world isn’t black and white. The difference here is knowing who, what and why to be mad/angery/upset at something. Otherwise you just have misdirected anger. The original comment called out boost as being a data predator (which I don’t use Boost for the record). I simply pointed to how the app and systems are setup and how the prompt shown isn’t Boost’s doing, it’s part of an SDK that boost uses as they’re injecting ads into the free app. They have to show whatever TOS the ad injector/SDK uses.

It’s like you only read the first sentence of their response and ignored the rest.

Boost has to show the google ads consent and TOS. It only shows up if it downloads the google ads SDK after checking to see if you purchased ad free. So if you purchased ad free version you wouldn’t see this TOS since you didn’t get the Google Ads SDK.

You are most definitely not more valuable than the data collection they can do. Do not kid yourself.
