I've always found Super Video Converter to be very useful and easy to use for video conversion.

Clearly they hadn't reached O'Brien's status in the Party.

And why didn't Rio come out of the trial house?

They first needed to fix the taxation and licensing system to make legal grows more attractive than illegal grows, but that's another story.

Don't let this lull you into a false sense of security.

VOTE! Particularly if you live in a swing state.

This reminds me of the shift in Florida's demographics towards Republicans because of all the MAGAts who moved down there to bask in DeSantis' anti-wokeness and Rs taking over the state legislative bodies.

Enjoy your state, guys.

AI helps the Jewish space lasers control weather and spread COVID more efficiently, thereby speeding up the Great Replacement and the kidnapping and consumption of your dogs and cats.

/s, obviously, unless I'm not.

For a $350 million budget? Not a chance, if they can salvage anything out of it.

That's okay, Gov. DeSantis says there's no such thing as climate change, so this is all normal.

Marvel could always make her a comic book character, like DC did with Harley Quinn, who was created for Batman: The Animated Series.

Mrs. Hart/Sharon might be a good foil for the new younger looking Agatha in the comic books.

Nice creepy summoning of Aubrey Plaza to the Road.

It would have been nice to explain why Alice felt creeped out about the 60s house, maybe it was just the vibes?

The paintings of the witches being tortured were good, and just out of character for a groovy 60s hippie den to make it uncomfortable.

Patti LuPone's reactions to things going on in the background during the song were great.

The song wasn't bad either. Not hit material, but better than your average TV show in-show song.

The exit through the piano was a bit of a letdown. A 60s architecture fire pit would have been more scary to a witch, for being reminiscent of burning at the stake.

I hope they find an excuse to bring Mrs. Hart/Debra Jo Rupp back...

It's not like the S&P500 committee is going to make wild and crazy decisions based on a hunch. It's still very much based on replacing older shrinking companies with newer more vigorous representatives in the same industry.

Mathematics.

This is why you shouldn't put your money into human-managed mutual funds.

Humans make idiotic decisions like helping Musk buy Twitter.

When they get their orders and talking points directly from Russia's FSB, they don't have to hire legislative staff to work for their constituents, do research on issues, and solve problems.

They can use the money for political campaigning instead. No wonder they're successful!

Good thinking! /s

A standard vented coffee bag has... a vent. So some smell is expected.

I just keep old coffee bags around if I need to store grounds or separate smaller quantities of beans.

I believe the objective is to reduce beans' and grounds' exposure to air, to reduce oxidation and flavor oil evaporation, so a standard coffee bag is the best way. Just squeeze out most of the air as you're resealing it.

Storing in airtight jars leaves too much air, IMO.

It's a different brewing method using pressure through a filter, resulting in a more fragrant brew.

I use a recipe that just brews in an inverted Aeropress for 10 seconds, so it comes out faster too, although most recipes call for brewing for longer.

But the quick method is great if I'm in a hurry that morning.

One downside to Aeropress is consuming paper filters, but I also have an aftermarket reusable metal mesh filter, and it works great.

Another downside is the dreaded "inverted Aeropress" disaster, which I recently experienced. I hold it by the plunger now ;-)

I alternate using both french press and Aeropress to keep from getting bored with my coffee.

For some reason, I get the opposite effect. I feel that the resulting brew from my plastic Aeropress loses more heat than my glass french press, so I have to preheat my coffee mug if I'm using my AP.

Giving it some thought, the effect may not be the AP material itself, but the heat loss from the high surface to volume ratio of the droplets as they come out of the filter, as opposed to the stream as the liquid is poured out in a single thick stream out of the french press.

i.e. A glass Aeropress may not reduce temperature loss significantly over plastic.

But my desire for a glass Aeropress is more for reducing plastic use, and risk of shedding microplastics into foods that I consume.

What would a funnel be for? I can't think of a use for one off the top of my head.

I pour my old grounds out of my storage bag into a small bowl, pour my new grounds into my storage bag, then I pour the old grounds on top of my new grounds, and they should get used first.

I don't shake my storage bag to mix the old grounds and the new evenly.
