Thanks - I'll have to look into this!

Not really no!

There was a "Multi Web Search" by Oleksandr for Firefox but it was last updated five years ago. It also intermingles the results whereas I would've liked to see them side by side (to compare how different search engines rank the sites)

The SearX feature the other guy mentioned might be the best bet!

Hah! It would seem so!

I would like two search engines displaying results side by side whenever I do a search. There's so much empty space on a wide screen display anyway.

Maybe I should check if there's an addon for this...

Good point, doesn't add up...

Didn't read the article but raw packaged meats are often (depending on local regulation) injected with sodium solutions.

It makes me so happy every time I see a thread that starts with the potential to get heated but ends up in normal conversation / being defused.

What I want to say is, the internet is a better place with y'all <3

(Edit: I thought I should contribute something to the subject at hand too so I'll just say, as an Ender owner, I'm quite jeallous of op's first layer.)

Thanks, makes sense!

Was Walz booed at for the Springsteen bit? Am I out of the loop on something?

I respect that! Anyway, the dish looked delicious ☺️

What type of potato did you use? I find the startchier varieties work best. When oiled meticulously they get crispy everywhere.

Mind you, I find them a hassle too.

If left in the french press, the coffee will continue to interact with the grounds even when they're pressed down. This is not great in my opinion but others might not feel strongly about it. To prevent this, the coffee should be transferred to a separate server to eliminate contact with the grounds completely. A french press doubling as a thermos wouldn't work for me for this reason.

A v60/kalita style pour over is a bit more versatile (compared to say a chemex or the french press) because you can brew straight to a cup/thermos/server depending on how much coffee you need and whether you need to keep it hot for longer. It's also quick to clean if you decide you need more coffee than you originally thought.

Other things to consider:

Some people find french presses annoying to clean.

The filter mesh in a french press is usually bit finicky and will let grounds past it in some scenarios (quite often, might depend on build quality though). The edges can also start to fray over time which makes this worse.

A pour over requires your undivided attention for the whole duration of the brew which can be a plus if it, as you say, feels therapeutic but a minus whe you're in a hurry.

A pour over has a lot more paraphernalia (timer scales, gooseneck kettles) which a lot of people will recommend getting. These are not must-haves for adequate brewing but if you have a budget in mind maybe take these into account too.

Did you have links to specific products?

Did you finish the display?

Yeah, I figured it would be related to processing power too... I think the book I had in mind had quite a few pictures and if they were high quality then that would explain the power draw... maybe? I'm skeptical it would be so power hungry if it was just text. I should do some actual testing.

Took a while but I think it's an old Romulan bird-of-prey. Any other ideas?

The bussard collector colour seems to vary quite a lot according to Google image search.

I've enjoyed my kobo libra h2o a lot but PDFs can be a bit challenging with its compact screen size.

Big PDFs tend to drain the battery quite fast too but this may not be such an issue with larger models.

I use it with Calibre and my local library has some books available via Overdrive. Calibre can convert books from other formats to epub. PDF is trickier in my experience but other e-reader formats have worked without a hitch.

If your unfamiliar with Calibre you can give it a go before making any decisions and convert a few books with it or something. Not necessarily the prettiest software but it does everything I need it to and does it well.

Sidenote:

I'd be curious to try one of those chinese e-ink android tablets one day.

Edit:

The kobo/rakuten store is quite good too, no complaints.

There's a big borg cube one?! This was from a company called bluebrixx (somebody asked in a previous thread)

Great models yet again!

The small ships are so cute... Do you have a shelf for them?
