The cafe offers both methods using the same bean of the day so that leads me to believe it's the process.

I think it's due to the slightly more active extraction of dripping water but I don't want to pretend like I fully know so I'll defer to what I've read online.

There's a cafe I go to that has a tower and I find Kyoto cold brew tastes better (notes are more prominent) and is noticeably smoother than regular cold brew.

You could argue it's marginal, but the same could be said for spending thousands on grinders and espresso machines versus a $100 machine and $20 grinder. Everyone's going to value their workflow differently.

I'm a fan of Kyoto cold brew and am thinking of getting a tower so I can brew it at home in the summer.

But I also just got a lever espresso machine so that'll probably keep me busy for a while.

One terrible combo is infinite scroll plus links in the footer (Bing does this, if you needed another reason not to use that site). I think pagination is generally a better pattern, since you can link to a specific page.

Also lack of back button functionality and having your state reset on refresh are also pet peeves.

Hyped for this. Hope the music is just as good

Thanks for this. I'm using mainly Firefox to support alternatives to webkit/blink based browsers but the new ToU makes me a bit apprehensive about the direction they're going.

I also had been test driving Falkon from KDE but will look into these as well.

I can dig it. For me it's similar to seeing physical products described as "handcrafted" to denote quality versus something mass produced. A lot of indie devs pour enormous amounts of time and energy into animation, scripts, music, etc. that a derivative gen AI would just spit out in seconds.

Let's also get rid of golf courses in arid deserts in the midst of droughts

This is the route I'll probably go when it's time for me to replace my laptop. The 14" Lemur Pro looks perfect for my use case (ultra portable) although the Pangolin looks more powerful.

Been meaning to build a garden shed, so I plan on starting that this weekend

Kind of like how they killed off Poochie

OfferUp and craigslist can be decent for local stuff depending on your area
