Not OP, but it kind of looks like our Cavachon.

Until they start to force you to connect to "finish" setup. I'm sure it's only a matter of time.

For now my new LG turns on directly to my external device and isn't connected to the Internet. I did have to change a setting to turn on to the last input used instead of the useless home screen.

You can actually turn them off now, built-in!

Nah, that happens today. January 2nd is double secret quiet quitting. Or as it should be said, acting your wage.

I just fill my insulated tumbler all the way to the top with ice and I get a perfect amount of coffee. It stops right where the lid goes on top.

However, if you were going to do it the normal way it would indeed be about 300g of ice. Then you'd put that over fresh ice (bigger pieces so it doesn't dilute as much?).

I'm just lazy and also don't want to use a second container so I just do it my way.

$32 USD a month for 2 lbs (0.9 kg) from a local roaster. Not the most economical, but they do a decent job of roasting.

I do pour over iced coffee (aka Japanese Iced Coffee) using a Hario V60. 35g coffee and 300g water brewed over ice (dilutes the rest of the way and chills the coffee) and I'm good to go.

I think it depends on the volume you intend. I got it for self hosting some things with no problems.

There's a podcast about this lady. I like listening to Bailey Darian, she makes it kinda fun.

It might make more sense to have you choose upfront. Then it does the research. Sort of like, you can choose one because reading will destroy the data on the drive, and you only have a chance to read one recipe for it's all destroyed.

There's always money in the milk stand (wink wink)!

That was part of why I stick with it. Does exactly what I need to to do and nothing more. It also works with my watch for reminders and confirmation of taking the pills.

It's a pretty simple interface.

Case Recommendations (self.datahoarder)
 

I'm having a hard time figuring out what case I want to get. Part of me thinks hot swap bays would be nice (I've had a drive failure and figuring out which one would have been 10x easier with hot swap). Of course in the future I'll have labels with S/N on the drives so it's easier to find the drive.

So provide me any case recommendations with 8+ drive bays if internal, and 6+ if hot swap. (I have a 5 drive pool now, but want to be semi future-proof).

 

Currently looking at getting a turntable to get into vinyl. I'm looking to spend no more than maybe $500 (can be persuaded more for a decent reason). Sound quality isn't super huge to me but I still can still tell some differences. I'm not sure where to start so hopefully someone can help.

So throw me some suggestions and hopefully I can find one I like!
