I agree except for condiments. They're cheap enough already compared to how long they last that I think it's worth springing for the good stuff. Duke's Mayo, Grey Poupon mustard, Cholula hot sauce, Ken's Steakhouse salad dressings, etc. If a bottle lasts you six months, what difference does a few dollars make?

For staples like flour, bread, canned products, OTC meds, who cares. I'll go as cheap as possible.

I didn't know Biden was at war with the Parshendi as well

And then you have a handle to hold it by when you get to the end (beginning?)!

The biggest problem with it is that it locks onto striders, which is absolutely overkill for them

Because it's so...sharp

The trailer for The Martian (2015) contained every plot point, including the finale.

Happens to me once a session usually

I gave it another shot last night, and I think it's actually fine. The only thing I wish it could do is erase a whole inked line at a time rather than erasing only what ink my eraser is over. Not sure if that makes sense.

While true and useful, it does not do well with tablet mode and pen input in my opinion. For example, you can't erase ink, only delete an entire ink "session." Unless I'm missing something?

For me, Edge, Firefox, Chrome are in the missing features category, and Drawboard PDF is in the overkill category.

Xodo is pretty close to what I want, but keeps spamming me with subscription nonsense. I'll give Foxit a try.

I have a Surface Pro 4, and I'm looking for a simple PDF viewer that works well in tablet mode. I used to use Edge, but after they switched to chromium it lost a few key features for me (pen input automatically being a pen instead of scroll, pen eraser working, full screen page swipe rather than scroll, etc). Everything else I've found is either way overpowered and cluttered, or doesn't work well with tablet mode and pen input. Any suggestions?

I've been using my Rancilio Silvia with my Eureka Mignon Manuale grinder to pull two double shots daily for about a year now. I've been working really hard to maintain consistency with my distribution and tamping, but the one thing that has been consistent is how uneven the extraction is.

Nearly without fail when the coffee first emerges from the bottom of my bottomless portafilter, it emerges from back to front, and blondes much faster at the back then at the front. I know this is causing uneven extraction and unnecessary bitterness. What could be causing this, and how can I improve? Is it something intrinsic to the machine or am I habitually tamping crookedly? How can I diagnose?
