  • French press is basically the same work as a drip machine, but a different shape. You just heat the water seperately and then pour it and the coffee into the French press, let it sit, press the plunger down, and pour. Actually takes slightly less time than any cheap dropper I’ve used and runs 0 risk of burning the coffee (drip machines like to put heating elements into their bases to keep the pot hot, this can burn the coffee and ruin the flavor, French presses cannot burn coffee because they cannot add heat)

    Espresso is finely ground coffee that uses steam pressure to brew (thus why espresso machines are fucking expensive, my mr coffee unit was 80 buck), it’s an involved process (worth learning gif you’ve got 20m to make a cup of coffee every time) but very good if you use beans you like AND you like your coffee flavor strong


  • You’re right

    It’s cute that you think this is some sort of opinion issue. It’s purely fact that what’s been claimed as happening in this thread doesn’t. Yet you keep pretending it does because you desperately want to be right.

    the majority

    Lol you idiots aren’t even close to the majority on this specific opinion. Most people are capable of grasping basic English.

    Enjoy the next election

    Whatever you say, fascist! Keep spreading that sweet sweet misinformation




  • Maybe what they are trying to say is that most everyday folks don’t use those terms in any normal conversation

    Then say that and not that they’re “impenetrable jargon”, because saying what they said makes you come across as so stupid it’s unbelievable and wraps around to “too obvious”

    I’ve never used those terms myself and haven’t heard them in any conversation I can recall outside of the Internet.

    Yeah, because they’re not actually all that relevant to normal life, but online it’s far easier and simpler to put them out there so people can properly address you in the anonymous internet. Also being put into games and shit for representation, which is likely included in what the person was whinging about


  • There you go not listening again

    Say something valid, then. I also live in the middle of rural dipshitville so acting like I’m some elite is a swing and a miss

    even to the point of saying what people are experiencing isn’t happening

    Just keep saying it’s happening without proof, that’ll make it true! Nobody is being called a bigot for not prefacing what they say with their pronouns, people are upset that the option is there at all for people to use because they’re suuuuuper insecure

    Why do so many people feel that way?

    Grifters in the media telling them lies, pretty simple. Well that and gear of change and normal homophobia



  • IIRC a quarter of the Republican ad spending was on that single ad, “The Democrats are for ‘they/them’, Trump is for YOU”. It was that effective.

    Ok, tell me how that’s the Dems calling anyone who isn’t straightforward with their pronouns a bigot. Oh, wait, it’s an argument being made by the party of lies? Then why blame the Democrats?

    I don’t care much who is right morally

    Cool, I’ll mentally keep you with the other people who think that: Trump supporter. Considering your other points I don’t believe you aren’t one, whether you live here or not, you sure as fuck act like one









  • Its hard because stop using adobe as graphic designe

    Premiere Pro, Photoshop, and After Effects all worked when I tried them on Linux Mint 22 to see if they worked

    Older versions from before the CC updates for those programs that you can use them for also work and work quite well, though I do understand that there are literally missing features for professional work in some of those older versions

    A real Linux alternative (or proper fucking Support but fuck adobe) would be GREAT, but the change likely won’t be as bad as you might be worrying

    So far the hardest thing I’ve had to install was called YAD, and that was so I could install Morrowind mods specifically, a rather niche need all things considered, and I’ve made multiple audiovisual projects on my Linux workstation without having to do anything like that

    I do keep a Win10 LTSC on a side boot drive for games with anticheat and any programs I might need there but so far that’s literally only been handbrake, which I’m sure there’s a Linux version/alternative for but I just haven’t had to use it on that OS yet due to work flow


  • Or machine virtualization, VirtualBox and similar programs are piss easy to learn to use and most machines today should have 0 issue emulating older windows and an old game in a VM

    Any issues you might have are going to be hardware related, like really old games not playing nice on no original hardware, but if you’ve got one of those then just install the last version of the OS and isolate that original hardware machine from any networking and it’s completely safe to use as a game console
