You just blew my mind, I don't even need an adapter. My drill fits exactly to the Kaldi burr grinder I have lying around unused.

Can't blame people for assuming the worst after YouTube removed the star system and then dislikes.

There's no good way to see if a video is trash. Especially if comments are disabled.

Anecdotes: my neighbors used to let their baby crawl around the gravel parking lot, neighborhood cats and dogs hanging out, and I was like "Those are good parents."

Meanwhile a neat freak surgeon and nurse couple raised kids that are allergic to nearly everything in the world (ex used to babysit the allergic kids).

Something good about growing up with cats and dogs in the house and playing in the mud. (If you're in an area without parasites in the ground)

Audi Pre-Sense was the worst offender. Looks like many others have similar experiences even this year:

I had a Nissan after that that implemented it a lot better, never any slam the brakes events. It would warn you with a beep and apply light braking first.

Agree with the automakers that the tech isn't ready.

The article doesn't mention how many times these cars slammed the brakes in false positive situations.

The cars I've driven with this are too conservative with braking in a lot of common scenarios like driving curvy mountain roads, or parallel parking in the city near pedestrians or taxis. I've had it brake multiple times in normal driving scenarios wtirh false positives.

The car takes over and decides to full stop immediately, almost causing me to be rear ended multiple times. Eventually the dealership turned off the feature, but only after multiple complaints from customers and media attention.

I vowed to never get another car with this system because of how bad the experience is. But looks like that may be an option only with used cars, due to the bew mandates.

Maybe try eating 4-5 smaller meals a day? "Grazing" rather than large filling meals

I just learned some mezcals use meat in the distilling process after speaking with a distiller. You'd never know by looking at the labeling.
