Maybe this will be a new point of evolution and our eye shapes will change in a new (not better) way were we see worse… Who knows… I don’t know what I’m talking about . ✌️

Yes, there are a lot of decaf roasting options, but only a few ways to process the beans. Did you watch the tasting event that just took place ? I think they did decaf this year.

Giving me something to do with my current kindle. I wasn’t sure how to load to it my downloaded books, so I’ve been suffering on my phone, but hopefully this helps me out a bunch. Thanks. This is a rabbit hole I never knew existed.

It is above most publicly accepted ratios. This is the one that works best with the water and process I use. I used to do like 21 to 360 or something, but this works out nice.

This court case is why the US government needed to invest billions into AI. Cover the legal fees. /s

Made it as espresso. It definitely has a lot of crema. I’m still getting it dialed in. Tastes good, but I didn’t think my palette is refined enough to say it taste different from other medium roasts. With that said, I didn’t think I’ll be getting another bag.

This is what brought the prequels back from the dead.

We just need more star trek memes to take over and we’ll save star trek

Yeah, I’m going to espresso brew it tomorrow. I wasn’t thinking of an Americano, just a straight shot. I have that ninja machine that’s all the rage right now. It does the job. Will see.

I also noticed that the beans are shiny.

I want physical media that is not sold on optical disks. Sell me content on SD cards for example.

A few episodes is nearly half the number of episodes available

See like a pass for now, we watched the first episode and there was some interest, but have not been asked for since. Will try again in a few months and see what happens. I personally am curious about the show, but will wait to watch together.

I started to watch prodigy, the first episode, but wasn’t motivated enough to go beyond a few minutes. I should give it another try, as it’s the only new star trek for the family to watch.

Strange new worlds might work, but due to how dark (lighting) and how real the effects look, this show is still not as family as the original shows.

What I’m looking for is something I know my kids can watch without being a helicopter parent.

It’s hard to really describe, maybe I’m getting old… 👴

Can we get some Star Trek I can watch with my kids around? I have to stick with classic trek (everything from Enterprise and earlier) as there isn’t an option. Sure Prodigy does exist, but I don’t know if I can get into that show myself.

Rant over…

They can make Section 31 content all they want, I don’t care, just make it good enough to watch. Hell, just take the book series and make a mini series based on those stories.

Maybe they didn’t watch it? I failed to get past 20 minutes.

Facebook is the only way for me to keep up with what’s happening in my town. Lots of the older generation of people are on it and always post what’s the best repair people, events or other news worthy things. Basically local news feed.

Yeah, the song I 2 I, from a goofy movie will take AI a while to get right.

Sure you can convert the DVD to whatever codec, I have found the original mpeg stream to not be very compatible with my devices. When I did 264, it was more for speed. It’s a 480 p/I mpeg2 stream, I don’t think 265 is worth the extra CPU cycles for this case. This is also just an opinion. 👍

True about AC3 being left alone, but dts should be converted, I can’t seem to get that to bitstream as nice as Dolby tracks.

I do reencode my uhd rips, to bring them down to 1080. I only have one 4k display and it’s not worth the bandwidth to try and stream it for me.

Did you try Kodi? Also, I recommend reencoding your dvd rips to h264 with eAC3 audio.

👍
