Spez stabbed baconreader in broad daylight so now I get my dopamine fix through Liftoff.
On the bright side, with smaller communities I have cut my time on lemmy in half from what it was on reddit to the point my wife has even brought up how less frequently I am staring at my phone.
Why am I on lemmy right now? Because itβs Friday so I am doing as little work as possible. I think Iβll go make some eggs.
My wife and I love to visit new places. We will generally prepare by asking friends who have visited what they liked and disliked, I would check the areas affiliated subreddit to get guidance from the locals, and do a little online searching to get a general feel for the city.
Once there donβt be afraid to talk to people. Talk to a can driver, spark up a conversation at a cafe. Locals are almost always willing to share their favorite places with you since youβre a visitor to their city and they want to shed it in the best light.
I have a buddy that puts hundreds of dollars into the fanciest coffee machines he can buy. He buys bags of beans from all over the world.
I have a $20 grinder, a $11 coffee pot from Kroger purchased in 2013, and while I do buy nice bags of coffee several times a a year, my typical bag is store brand who bean for $7 and Iβll splurge on a nice $15 bag from time to time.
I canβt tell the difference in taste when I am at his place. However, instant coffee is disgusting and I cannot sip it without a shit load of creamer to dilute the awfulness.
