To you know if wechat or alipay work? I need these while traveling. They use QR codes for payment and other services. I wish this took off everywhere as nfc payments are locked into only a few apps.

Ok. I had some weird feeling like the us version of the phone won't work overseas

Dvd video on a cell phone looks great

The issue with blurays are the unskippable intros before the menu hits

This is true. Spending more for newer A series vs used "higher" end older models is up the how the phone is used daily.

The A Series is like the Nissan Sentra of phones in my opinion.

Too late in NJ :( i now have a $2k eBike with no purpose. It's sole use was for school pick up and drop off, but we are no longer allowed passengers with the new laws saying that eBikes are classified as mopeds.

The swing from the last episode to this is crazy. I enjoy a good backstory, but was hoping there would have been something more interesting on the side quests. Maybe at the academy there is some systems failure and they have to camp outside idk.. our maybe the wedding starts and there is a murder they need to solve... Anything... Backstory stuff is ok, but when the seasons are only like 10 episodes, I'm not sure they are with it.

Overall, yes I enjoyed this episode. Would i slip it on rewatch, likely.

Parent's Bitter Coffee (startrek.website)
submitted 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago) by CCMan1701A@startrek.website to c/coffee@lemmy.world
 

At visiting my parent's this holiday weekend I tired to gently tell my parents that their coffee brew is very bitter. The response I get back is something like, " I like it strong."

I wasn't too sure how to respond, but then they told me my coffee is to watery. 🤔 I told them it's not that is watery, but it's a light roast and not bitter tasting.

So my question is how do you convince someone that bitter coffee is not good coffee? I might bring my scale next time to help measure and perfect the coffee brew there. Maybe even see about cleaning their been grinder, which I think has never been cleaned.

Oh well.

Update: Thanks for all the tips and thoughts. I agree with basically everything posted here and sorry no butter (I fixed the title)

I wanted to try out the desktop version of the Brave browser. Its setup according to the privacy guide directions and I have sendoff usage data disabled, but if I open the browser sitting on the home page, windows is reporting 100KB ofdataa going out every 5 or so seconds.

Running the same test with Edge, no network usage is reported.

The only extention on Brave is bitwarden, which is also installed on edge.

Any thoughts? This is the IP it is sending to: 104.18.12.33

Edit: on reboot of process, I see the hostname: ec2-35-163-26-5.us-west-2.compute.amazonaws.com
