I just had the hardest hit of nostalgia wave over me. Thanks for sharing!

I own both. I daily use my AeroPress. I use my Moka about twice a month. They’re both great brewers, but the Moka isn’t for making a good daily cup or espresso. The coffee you get from it is unique. If you make a lot of milk beverages, I think the Moka is a decent way to make coffee for that use, but you’ll also need a good way to froth and steam your milk.

I’d go with an AeroPress and check out the various brew methods available to achieve your desired results.

If Angela told him when she was invited, he could maybe have made sure to provide something vegetarian, but when you have a unique dietary choice, it’s on you to communicate it.

I eat a keto diet. People who know me are usually pretty thoughtful to provide a low carb option when they have me over, but I don’t get angry with someone for not going out of their way to guess at my dietary choices.

And after Diwali, it becomes clear that Angela plays the vegetarian card to justify outrage even when it’s not justified.

Unfortunate? Yes. Do I feel bad for Pfizer? No. For their employees? Yes.

Should a company with as much capital have redundancy in their manufacturing facilities to the point that “shortages” are nearly unthinkable? Absolutely.

I canceled Netflix three years ago. There are plenty of other less expensive services with a higher hit to miss ratio for their originals.

Haven’t missed it a bit.

This is the best possible resource on moka pot brewing. There’s two more in the series, but this is a great way to understand how to get the best possible coffee out of your pot.

But not for coronaviruses. For parasites. And not in the doses that are intended for animals, but for humans. And not purchased from a farm supply store, but through a pharmacy.

I mean… they can. I drive a Maverick. My bed easily fits a riding mower, a weed eater, pressure washer, pole saw, and all the manual yard tools I could need for working on other people’s yards.

And my wife and children can also comfortably ride in it when I’m using it for family transportation. And I average 43 miles to the gallon.

Not every truck needs a full size bed, and four doors doesn’t make a truck less useful but more.

Techmoan and coffee in bed is my Saturday morning routine. I’ve been watching Matt do these videos for so long that he feels like a good friend.

$2.99 a month for an un-skippable ad at the beginning of a video is the threshold for me. Anything more than that and I’m just not interested. Make the length and cost of the ad itself commensurate to the length of the video it precedes. I hate watching videos that are chopped up into bits with thoughts interrupted at random.
