Thanks, I'll know for next time.

Ok, I just looked it up and the Ascaso Uno is a thermoblock design, while the Sanremo Cube is an HX machine with a full on steam boiler. Therefore, the Ascaso wouldn't even have in…

This seems very interesting, at least from a pure coffee nerd standpoint and what it could mean for improving espresso brewing in general. However, I'm going through the research p…

I agree, we need more permanent measures. I'm tired of seeing these bills pop up over and over and having to play whack-a-mole. Any suggestions?

The comment you've replied to is clearly not "partisan bluster". While it may be a tad hyperbolic, with the Stanley Cup line, it's driving a valid point that while Canada is facing…

That's what I was thinking, sounds just like the Volt. The Volt was a very practical vehicle, drove great and cost so little to fuel up. Most weeks I owned the Volt I wouldn't put …

LOL imagine if this guy was your boss. Scary thing is though, my boss is starting to sound like this :D

Not only that, the companies used the tariff excuse to raise prices which will not come back down even if tariffs are fully off the table. Just like the price inflation during COVI…

I'm shocked you can't see how this is a potential conflict of interest. You don't need to know the exact outcome of the SC decision to have confidence that things will land in your…

Been writing my local officials to try to get some attention on this, I encourage others to do the same. Typical Canadian government red tape that we really don't need in this curr…

Very valid points, especially considering a project like the Bruce B reactors (large project just north of this site) were (inflation adjusted) built for around ~6B CAD / GW in the…

Framework 13, 11th Gen Intel, running Fedora 41. I've gone through many Fedora upgrades since buying this in 2021, my unit was I think the 3rd batch of the original laptops. Everyt…

Was just thinking how my team can get off current Notion lock in, this looks promising. Might be able to contribute as well, being a Django shop.

Using electricity to make steel isn't novel - if you consider electric arc furnaces (which can be powered by renewable energy). This does seem to be a fairly novel and cool approac…

That's why I like my Chevy Volt. It has a couple different drive modes selectable with the shifter. Under the normal drive mode the regen braking is controlled by a little paddle o…

Guys, it's all about the Whirlpool Manifesto: https://whirlpoolmanifesto.org/

They probably force themselves to use their own product which is why remote comms is failing.

CBC Marketplace in Canada has done a couple similar assessments over the years where they have someone go to different dentists after an initial diagnosis by independent experts. T…

Reminds me of this guy who actually tried this with pressure washers: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lKNB3ZeTYiI

Seems like a pretty steady decline over the years judging by this figure: https://d15shllkswkct0.cloudfront.net/wp-content/blogs.dir/1...

The developer behind this is Ben Feist, he built this as a hobby project (at the time his day job was in advertising). It inevitably did lead him to a job at NASA working on data v…

N-Acetylcysteine (NAC) has been studied in relation to a myriad of psychiatric disorders with a lot of positive results. It works as an antioxidant and neuro-regulator. For some re…

Very cool and cute. The tiny screen actually looks great.
