[01:56]	DaemonFC	Tobacco is a crop, you can grow it organically. It'll still kill you.

[01:57]	DaemonFC	There is a sense of bitter irony about this.

[02:01]	DaemonFC	It's funny because in the US, you buy gas in gallons and measure engine displacements in liters.
[02:02]	DaemonFC	The new car stickers list liters per so many kilometers, but it's mostly because they might be sold in Canada.
[02:03]	schestowitz	DaemonFC, MinceR: merry grav-mass. DaemonFC: yes, she suspects it is "her".
[02:03]	schestowitz	trying to hijack women's accounts
[02:03]	schestowitz	it is hard to prove except by the timing
[02:03]	DaemonFC	It's just a mess in the US, with weights, measures, and distances.
[02:03]	MinceR	scary solstice, mortals
[02:04]	DaemonFC	There's so much crap coming in now from overseas, like, I have a 1.5 liter electric kettle.
[02:04]	schestowitz	you insist on using imperial
[02:04]	schestowitz	british
[02:04]	schestowitz	while eleverating INDEPENDENCE day
[02:04]	schestowitz	even the british abandoned those
[02:04]	MinceR	Dependence Day
[02:04]	DaemonFC	But had to convert it to ounces to know how many cups of pourover coffee a liter was.

[02:04]	TR Bot	 Is software getting worse? - Stack Overflow
[02:04]	DaemonFC	And a cup was 6 ounces on that machine.
[02:04]	MinceR	> measure engine displacements in liters.
[02:04]	schestowitz	:D
[02:04]	MinceR	not cubic inches?
[02:04]	DaemonFC	Not 8 ounces, which is a cup, because 6 ounces is a "coffee cup".
[02:04]	schestowitz	DaemonFC: i made some coffee with vanilla
[02:04]	DaemonFC	Unless you're in Europe where it's 4.
[02:04]	schestowitz	you buy those in tetrapacks
[02:05]	DaemonFC	Which is half a cup.
[02:05]	DaemonFC	Or 2/3rds of a US coffee cup, of course.
[02:05]	DaemonFC	But you're converting from liters now because of the Chinese kettle.

[02:06]	schestowitz	i got an email
[02:06]	schestowitz	that i cannot share, promised not to
[02:06]	schestowitz	but it shows something similar to what we experienced
[02:06]	MinceR	GNU/FSF stopped caring, Linux got taken over and it's now an unmaintainable, bloated mess
[02:06]	DaemonFC	schestowitz: If the British abandoned it, it's ours now.
[02:07]	schestowitz	like groups of goons ganging up on peopple and orgs
[02:07]	schestowitz	and making threats
[02:07]	DaemonFC	Switching over to Metric would just be doing what the British did.
[02:07]	DaemonFC	:)
[02:07]	schestowitz	and it happened at a very high level
[02:07]	MinceR	DaemonFC: you really showed the brits.
[02:07]	DaemonFC	Besides, it's not the SAME Imperial units the British had.
[02:07]	schestowitz	joining the eu helped us abandon it
[02:07]	schestowitz	just not the poundd
[02:07]	DaemonFC	Ours have been standardized and indexed to Metric.
[02:07]	DaemonFC	Just to make sure it's even more confusing.

[02:09]	schestowitz	this series will be lots of ffun
[02:09]	schestowitz	at one point you will see how they lie to webhosts
[02:09]	DaemonFC	So the US units can be converted to Metric and make sure that the conversion is consistent, the definitions are indexed to the Metric units.
[02:09]	schestowitz	i got it all meticulously documented
[02:10]	schestowitz	DaemonFC: nasa uses metric
[02:10]	schestowitz	it has to
[02:10]	DaemonFC	If you have any really old measuring units, you really should throw those out.
[02:10]	schestowitz	for many reasons
[02:10]	DaemonFC	schestowitz: It was fun remodeling that house that mom and Dave got.
[02:10]	schestowitz	DaemonFC: what about time measures?
[02:10]	schestowitz	the system we have now it awful
[02:10]	schestowitz	but many people got used to it
[02:10]	schestowitz	time zones
[02:10]	schestowitz	leap years
[02:10]	schestowitz	leap seconds
[02:10]	DaemonFC	You'd get from one end of a door frame and to the other end and there'd be a 5/8" difference.
[02:11]	DaemonFC	So I'd have to grab a laser level and reframe a door to make it match.
[02:11]	DaemonFC	Also, I kept banging my head into the top of the door frame using their downstairs bathroom.
[02:11]	schestowitz	DST
[02:11]	schestowitz	DST it to me most irrational
[02:11]	DaemonFC	So I took a saw and cut it out about another 4".
[02:11]	DaemonFC	Then bought a taller door and put that one in.
[02:12]	schestowitz	from a server POV, you must deal with the same tiime happening twice
[02:12]	schestowitz	or not happening at all
[02:12]	schestowitz	it's like leap hour
[02:12]	DaemonFC	I'm 6' 3.5" tall or 6' 4" with my shoes.
[02:12]	MinceR	it's probably also a lot easier and cheaper to rely on SI standards for measurements than maintain separate imperial ones
[02:12]	DaemonFC	I was banging my head on the thing because I needed another 2" clearance.
[02:12]	DaemonFC	So I made it four because that took it nearly to the ceiling and made sure almost nobody in the future would have this problem again.
[02:12]	MinceR	stuff like a mass standard and a length standard
[02:13]	schestowitz	DaemonFC: oiaohm is 6' 5''  iirc
[02:13]	schestowitz	i'm "just" 6
[02:13]	DaemonFC	Nobody except possibly Abraham Lincoln was my height when that house was built.
[02:13]	DaemonFC	He got to die in agony with a bullet lodged in him with his feet hanging over a bed that was too short.
[02:13]	DaemonFC	Fucking short people.
[02:13]	DaemonFC	The bed sounds like the worst part.

[02:30]	DaemonFC	Yeah, cinnamon, water, tiny little hole meant for coffee to flow through....
[02:30]	DaemonFC	What could go wrong, I wonder?
[02:30]	schestowitz	btw
[02:30]	DaemonFC	Clearly the fault of Melitta.
[02:30]	schestowitz	it looks like one of gulaggboy's friends from Microsoft

[02:31]	schestowitz	based on a talk schedule for February

[02:32]	schestowitz	not just that
[02:32]	schestowitz	ime
[02:32]	DaemonFC	schestowitz: Just about any amount of coffee I buy up is fine.
[02:32]	DaemonFC	I burn through the stuff quickly.
[02:32]	schestowitz	do not use very fine drains
[02:32]	DaemonFC	And....I have a deep freeze.
[02:32]	schestowitz	grains
[02:32]	schestowitz	some products make the grains very fine
[02:32]	DaemonFC	Well, the cinnamon and water made gunk.
[02:32]	schestowitz	they clog it up fast
[02:32]	schestowitz	and if you reuse the filter a bit they may overflow
[02:32]	DaemonFC	So you're only supposed to put a filter in there and then coffee in the filter.
[02:32]	schestowitz	overflows are not the end of the world on decent machines
[02:32]	DaemonFC	I don't know what the fuck this lady did but it's like the gas tank in your car.
[02:32]	schestowitz	they are designed to cope with those
[02:33]	DaemonFC	The only thing that goes there is gas.
[02:33]	DaemonFC	Or the oil fill tube.
[02:33]	DaemonFC	Only oil.
[02:33]	schestowitz	if she wants cinn'  she need to:
[02:33]	schestowitz	add it after
[02:33]	schestowitz	or put that in the dispenser
[02:33]	schestowitz	below the steaming point
[02:33]	DaemonFC	Yeah, you add the cinnamon to the carafe directly, or to the mug.
[02:33]	DaemonFC	Not in the brew basket!
[02:33]	schestowitz	does she try to brew the cinn?
[02:33]	DaemonFC	Yeah!
[02:34]	schestowitz	imagine adding vanilla there too
[02:34]	DaemonFC	People on Amazon are great, aren't they?
[02:34]	schestowitz	i would not try
[02:34]	schestowitz	the backup filter is hard to replace
[02:34]	DaemonFC	One put head gasket sealer in her BMW and then drove around with it.
[02:34]	schestowitz	they tend to be proprietary
[02:34]	DaemonFC	Until the engine threw a piston rod directly into the hood.
[02:34]	DaemonFC	:D
[02:34]	schestowitz	and if subjected to too much 'browning' they would restrict the drip
[02:34]	DaemonFC	MinceR: ^
[02:35]	DaemonFC	Head gasket sealers have VERY specific directions.
[02:35]	DaemonFC	You're supposed to drain the coolant out, remove the thermostat and re-attach the housing, then pour the stuff in with a radiator full of water and IDLE the car for a couple hours.
[02:36]	DaemonFC	Then you turn off the car, drain the water and residual solution, and then re-install the thermostat and fill it with water/antifreeze and bleed the air.
[02:37]	DaemonFC	The intermediate step is because the stuff has to flow into the hole in the blown head gasket, get heated by engine heat, and form this sort of "cement" to fill the gap.
[02:38]	DaemonFC	But it doesn't mix with coolant and if you drive around like that it'll get into the piston where it shouldn't go while the engine is running at higher RPMs.
[02:38]	DaemonFC	ChrisFix did fix his dad's head gasket leak and his dad was able to drive his Jaguar around for about another 4 years before it was a problem again.
[02:38]	DaemonFC	And that's much less work than a new gasket, which comes out to thousands of dollars at a shop on an old car.
[02:39]	DaemonFC	Another 4 years is amazing for a $40 bottle of stuff off Amazon or at the car parts store.
[02:39]	DaemonFC	If the car is 20 years old, has little value, and you're going to have to junk it now.
[02:41]	DaemonFC	schestowitz: Yeah, my mom buries her coffee alive under sweetened creamers and flavorings.
[02:42]	DaemonFC	So if the coffee underneath it all is absolute dogshit, she wouldn't know.
[02:42]	schestowitz	sounds like it
[02:42]	DaemonFC	Keurig pods don't make good coffee.
[02:42]	schestowitz	btw, we use the used coffee stuff in the garden
[02:42]	schestowitz	they say it is good compost/fertiliser
[02:42]	DaemonFC	But if you're pouring in "Nestle Italian Sweet Cream" then that hides a lot of sin.
[02:42]	schestowitz	with capsules i suppose it's a lot of work
[02:42]	schestowitz	also a source of waste
[02:43]	schestowitz	all that aluminum stuff
[02:43]	DaemonFC	You can pull the aluminum lid off and dump the coffee out.
[02:43]	schestowitz	DaemonFC: lots of small ones
[02:43]	schestowitz	and then still waste
[02:43]	schestowitz	it's aa waste industry
[02:43]	schestowitz	like those plastic bottles thing
[02:43]	schestowitz	with water in them
[02:45]	DaemonFC	schestowitz: They don't even fill the pod, so a lot of that is slack space.

[02:52]	DaemonFC	Trying to make coffee with a 4, 6, and 9 ounce set of buttons but enough coffee for a 6 ounce cup in the pod is the same as putting enough coffee for 6 cups in an auto drip then filling it to 4 cups or 9 cups if you want to.
[02:52]	DaemonFC	Two of the choices lead to really nasty coffee.
[02:52]	DaemonFC	So why does the K-Cup brewer have more choices than the coffee grounds in the capsule allow for?
[02:53]	DaemonFC	No matter what you do, there's not enough coffee in there to be up to SCA standards.
[02:53]	DaemonFC	But that's fine because the default brew speed isn't up to SCA standards either.
[02:54]	DaemonFC	You can at least fix that part by hitting "Strong" every time.
[02:55]	DaemonFC	So it's meant for a 6 ounce cup at less than the SCA recommendation, so if you brew 4 ounces and at Strong, you can fill a mug with two K-Cups, and running the machine twice and it will be at the recommended strength of the SCA. Roughly.
[02:55]	DaemonFC	What's wrong with this picture?

[03:00]	DaemonFC	schestowitz: So they don't admit that in addition to being 75 cents a pod, you need two of them and go through this whole thing twice a cup pressing buttons.
[03:00]	DaemonFC	There's methods where you get strong coffee with less off it, but that always comes at the cost of overextraction.
[03:01]	DaemonFC	Like a percolator or french press.
[03:01]	DaemonFC	Some of the better percolators have better temperature control units.
[03:02]	DaemonFC	They can beat out a lot of the auto drip units, but the whole thing is more of a "fuck it mentality" on the part of the auto drip machine designs.
[03:02]	DaemonFC	So they'll get you used to horrible coffee with those cheap auto drip makers. Then you try a percolator, it's better than that drip machine you were using.
[03:03]	DaemonFC	So you're seeing percolators on the market again, and I'd say it's like the comeback of vinyl records.

[03:03]	DaemonFC	You can easily beat out a percolator with a well designed auto drip that had some thought and good materials put into it.
[03:03]	DaemonFC	But most of the drip makers are not built to such standards.

[03:07]	DaemonFC	The Nespresso also costs a fortune and creates a bunch of waste, but I understand the coffee is at least pretty good.

[03:23]	DaemonFC	But Nestle took a gasket in the pod and got a patent on that.
[03:23]	DaemonFC	And then designed the machine to leak if you try to use an off-brand pod.
[03:23]	DaemonFC	How clever.

[04:00]	DaemonFC	schestowitz: I didn't stop and think about Nespresso pods cost based on how much coffee is in them.
[04:01]	DaemonFC	$223 a pound for coffee? LOL
[04:01]	DaemonFC	Roughly.
[04:01]	DaemonFC	schestowitz: I picked up a Zijirushi thermos on Amazon.
[04:01]	DaemonFC	They had one in Warehouse deals I liked.
[04:01]	schestowitz	i filled up my cabinets with tea and coffe for less than that
[04:01]	DaemonFC	I have an assortment of insulated mugs from Walmart that I hate.
[04:01]	DaemonFC	Many of them busted.
[04:02]	DaemonFC	*Zojirushi
[04:03]	DaemonFC	The Contigo one I hate the least keeps my coffee warm enough that as long as I drink it within about 30-40 minutes I'm okay.
[04:03]	DaemonFC	Mandy likes to buy a lot of junk instead of one good thing.
[04:03]	DaemonFC	Then even if it breaks, if he knows I tossed it, it's World War III.
[04:04]	DaemonFC	Zojirushi says theirs has a locking lid, the lid comes apart so you can clean each piece properly, and the inside is easy to clean because they have some sort of stain-resistant coating, and that it keeps "tea" piping hot for up to 6 hours.
[04:05]	DaemonFC	Like most, that probably means "drinkable" for several more.
[04:05]	DaemonFC	You extend how long it can do that by preheating it with hot water.
[04:06]	DaemonFC	I don't use boiling. It's easier to just turn the tap on hot. The landlord keeps the hot at 145 F for some reason.
[04:06]	DaemonFC	Not boiling hot, but hot enough to scald.
[04:06]	DaemonFC	Much less of a temperature loss than going from hot 200 degree coffee to a room temperature (68 F right now) carafe.
[04:07]	DaemonFC	Going to a room temperature carafe starts your coffee out at about 180 F from the Moccamaster.
[04:08]	DaemonFC	Preheating the carafe to 145 with the tap and letting it soak for a minute and dumping the water and starting the machine has the coffee start out being held at 188 F.
[04:08]	DaemonFC	That's only a 12 degree loss.
[04:08]	DaemonFC	I doubt I'd do a lot better than that if I took the effort to boil some, and I'd have to pay for the electric to do that.
[04:10]	DaemonFC	It helps keep my coffee hotter if I sneak some into the movies or whatnot.
[04:11]	DaemonFC	Sometimes if we head out somewhere at breakfast I make my own coffee and slip it into a McDonalds or something.
[04:11]	DaemonFC	Why pay them over $2 for some nasty ass McDonald's coffee?
[04:11]	DaemonFC	Sitting on a burner since however long it's been.
[04:12]	DaemonFC	Coffee salesman was one of my grandfather's 4 jobs (at the same time).

[04:12]	DaemonFC	Mom asked him why he did four jobs at the same time and he sighed and said "I could work five and your mother would still spend it faster."
[04:12]	DaemonFC	Three of them were at General Motors.
[04:13]	DaemonFC	He used to spend his weekends making pizzas at home, from scratch and  then selling them at work.
[04:13]	DaemonFC	And he was a coffee salesman.
[04:13]	DaemonFC	He sold a lot to other factory workers there, but he'd also go out and deliver to hotels and stuff, for the Cadillac Coffee company.

[04:43]	schestowitz	yes

[04:45]	DaemonFC	schestowitz: Moccamaster did design a badly pouring carafe.
[04:45]	DaemonFC	To their defense, so did everyone else.
[04:45]	DaemonFC	Now they want you to pay to replace it with one lined with borosilicate glass that they say pours a lot better.
[04:46]	DaemonFC	The term "lined with borosilicate glass" is what bothers me.
[04:46]	DaemonFC	Maybe it does work well, but now if you drop it you're definitely fucked.
[04:46]	DaemonFC	So I'll just be careful while I'm pouring and not have glass to break.
[04:47]	DaemonFC	Every time you get a glass carafe or one with glass, you drop it and it crashes.
[04:47]	DaemonFC	So then you have to pay $85 again getting another one.
[04:47]	DaemonFC	And stainless steel at least doesn't do that. Even if it dents, it's not shattered.

[09:01]	DaemonFC	Most European countries that had a claim on parts of what is now the United States had tenuous claims at best, laughable ones at worst.
[09:01]	DaemonFC	The British were of course the major problem and once they were dealt with, it was only a matter of time before the march west happened fairly rapidly.
[09:04]	DaemonFC	The Louisiana Purchase was more or less a small payoff to avert a war that nobody really wanted. Especially the French.
[09:04]	DaemonFC	To the United States, it was much cheaper than declaring a war on France and taking it.
[09:04]	DaemonFC	To France, the last thing they wanted was ANOTHER war and more debts.
[09:05]	DaemonFC	They were really hot to sell and then get out of here with something.
[09:06]	DaemonFC	It's funny when you think about it. Get money and use it to throw Europe into more chaos. So I mean, the US was also essentially investing in this along with getting rid of the French Problem here.
