  • I do a 1:16.667 ratio of coffee to water. That would be 30g coffee in 500g water. Pre rinse the filter. Then I add enough boiling water to bloom the coffee. After about a minute I start adding more water. Just enough to keep the grounds below liquid level. I swirl clockwise and then counter clockwise after each pour.

    That’s it. Keep pouring until target amount of water is reached.

  • A link to Reddit to a link to unverified “documents” is not news. It’s gossip at best.

    News should be verifiable and fact checked. Not some random post in a subreddit.

  • Agree, OPs experience sucks and it’s good perspective but YSK should be focused on facts.

  • Moussaka.

    You have to peel, slice, salt, and drain eggplant. Then cook it.

    You have to peel, parboil, and slice potatoes.

    Optionally also peel, slice, salt, drain, and cook zucchini.

    You have to make your meat sauce. Make bechemel.

    And then layer it all together and bake it.

    It’s MANY hours.

  • What is it you’re looking to get from the lethicin? What do you think is missing from just straight canola? What problems are you having? I think this would help with alternative suggestions.

    I’ve used a refillable oil spray bottle a few times in my life. I’ve got back to packaged cooking spray because I’m the refillable bottles, the nozzles always clog or degrade over time.

  • Do you roast there or move it outside when you want to roast? The smoke seems like you wouldn’t want it in a finished space without some serious ventilation.

  • Some People may consider this sacrilege, but I keep a small jug in my fridge that I pour any extra coffee in. In brewing this would be the solvers method :). 1/4 cup left? It goes in the jug.

    Then I use this to make iced coffee.

    If I’m completely empty, I’ll brew a pot of French press, and then pour it in the jug to restock.

  • There are no cake days, this isn’t Reddit. Don’t try to make it Reddit. Let it be it’s own thing.

  • In principle, these type of weapons are immoral even in war. We’re talking about things like mustard gas, chlorine gas, sarin gas. Nerve agents that are incredibly cruel and painful. They painfully, sometimes slowly, kill or incapacitate indiscriminately.

    I think in practice warfare and weaponry have changed enough that the U.S. military feels it can wage war more effectively without these type of weapons.

  • This is some very ironic, animal farm energy here. The government has forgotten who gave them their power.

  • Spez has been correctly advised that investors are going to be concerned with profitability, or at least a viable pathway to profitability.

    There’s a huge startup bubble starting to burst. Companies reliant on cheap money to supplement a business model that at best is years away from profitability but in some cases decades or will never be profitable.

    Uber and Doordash IPO’d when money was cheap and investors were fine with speculating on these disruptive, yet unprofitable, companies.

    I work broadly in the VC funded start-up world. My observation is that money is running out. All of these companies are trying to commercialize, even if the product isn’t fully ready, because they have to show revenue and there has to be a path to profitability of that revenue. That’s the only way they’ll get more money.

    In this context, Reddit is more like these startups. They’ve been funded by investors, including big ones like Condé Nast and Ten Cent, and they need more money, so they have to show a path to profitable revenue.

    The IPO is going to be a shit show. I wouldn’t touch it with a 9 foot pole. Reddit has been notoriously unprofitable for its entire existence. Now there’s no more juice to squeeze and their backers want to pawn it off on retail investors.

  • I can understand the interest in watching the drama unfold. It’s like reality tv.

    But you should also ask yourself, deep down, why do you care?

    Reddit will never go back. It was going downhill long before the 3PA-crisis. Spez will never back down. Even if Spez gets fired it’ll be an Ellen Pao situation all over again. The new CEO will say nice things and then not undo anything Spez did.

    At this point the most anyone left on Reddit can do is damage Reddit’s valuation. It’s retribution for destroying the community we all enjoyed.

    The mods can do this by impacting what subs can be monetized. Users can do this by decreasing traffic. Even being on the site is traffic.

  • You know why. You’re just trying to be smug.

    It’s fine if you don’t want a large television, but someone else isn’t CRAZY for making different choices.

    It’d be nice to leave the toxicity on those other sites.

  • Trickledown wealth, yes, but the spirit of OPs question is “stuff”. “Stuff” does generally get cheaper over time.

    I bought a 55” Plasma TV in 2008 for $2100. Last year I bout a 65” OLED for $1600. Much better picture, much thinner/lighter, much lower power consumption and heat generation.

    This is the spirit of OPs question.
