Talk me out of an 18" dishwasher. (or into it)

    I've gotten some good deals on lightly used 24" dishwashers. I've never seen an 18" come up, though I'm sure they're out there. I think I paid about 50% of MSRP on my current one that has been very good to me.

    I see lots of people saying there are plenty of 18"s, and I'm sure that's true if you buy them new. I guess I just wanted to agree with you and share my experience.

    If someone has been involuntarily committed it means they've already shown an intention to harm themselves or others. So the goal is not to stop them from feeling bad but to physically prevent them from doing harm.

    If I had my way, regulations would require a physical connection for all door handles, and not just that a secondary physical release be available. I don't know how you would go about finding injuries associated with each design as a layperson, but I bet there's a death or two associated with each novel design.

    An old man roasted in his Cadillac XLR because the battery was dead and he didn't know where the secondary release was. I think it's under the seat on that car. I don't care how cool that electronic door release was, or if the old man was negligent in not knowing his exits; it wasn't worth his life.

    So all you have to do is go to your own auction and bid the car well above its value. Once you owe yourself more than you owe the car company, you can file a title 27i to legally remove 50% of your name and transfer that value from the worth of your name contract to settle all remaining debt.

    Then you can walk away with the car, and usually, your legal name gets cooler anyway. I used to be JEFFERY POUTINE but now I'm just JEF POUT. It even fits on a standard 7 digit international non-commercial traveling placard!

    That's how I like to see us too, but I've definitely met some Z hating millennials.

    I met a fellow "old millennial" recently who said "we're the last generation to be raised right". I disagree, but hearing it from a guy my age really cemented me in old man status.

    Then he told me he had 3 kids. Who's responsible for raising that generation!? Lol.

    The creamers and syrups are very weird. Some people here are passionate about them too. It's always a mixed bag when someone says they're picky about their coffee.

    My go-to is a big pour over, maybe 15g of coffee and 500mL of water. Of course, being American, I measure everything with plastic spoons from McDonalds instead of a scale. I like espresso too, but I'm not big on lattes. Generally no cream, sugar, or anything added.

    On the other end of the spectrum is diner coffee. Usually strong but stale. It's not my favorite but it has a special place in my heart.

    If you ever do meet an American coffee snob ask them what they like. We have a whole variety of them.

    It's a good reminder of how influenced we are by our surroundings, even when we try to be aware of the effect. Or maybe especially when we try to be aware.

    I was staying strong until I saw they were already sundowning windows 10. 10! They just came out with that shit. I have no intention of upgrading to the latest advertising package.

    This is the first time I've thought about Tucker in months. In a way I'm glad, because it reminded me that he's not often in my life anymore, but if we could all just stop mentioning him until he fades completely that would be great.

    Wouldn't you know it, I've been all over Europe and they don't make it quite like I do at home either.

    So what's this Australian secret coffee? If you don't tell me I know another Australian I can press.

    We do have different types of coffee, but you might have to go to a specialty shop to get it like you do at home. If you're talking about regular restaurants it's probably good advice.

    There are bikes out there with driven front wheels. Jeep and Hummer have even released bikes under their brands with this design. It has a shaft that travels through the downtube to the front wheel.

    This is not a design that is taken seriously in performance biking, at least as far as I know. Maybe there's a low speed rock crawling group that I'm unfamiliar with. But if you're looking for something unique that can crawl up tough terrain, you might enjoy it.

    I'll leave the serious mountain bike recommendations to everyone else. There are plenty of good ones here already.

    God damn crab people!

    I'm going to go out of my way to make my solutions more crab-like now. Maybe they'll get better.

The mount is designed to aim at about 10 degrees down from the level of the top of the stem, whatever that is. With the Osram the hotspot ends about 20' out.

I'm also going to make the S6 a triple with the same 519a 3500K dedomed, swap the 219C Triple for a spare XPL HI from my other FW3A, and trade the Osram for an SFT40; all three of those will get 8A drivers, and the others 5A. I know the Roche isn't really a Convoy. But I got it from Simon, and they're all just tubes after all.

    It's just a little guy, but I think it looks great on the S2+. Some bending required to get the fit right, but they do clip on securely without modification. Be careful bending though; I broke a couple where the arms meet the clip. ![](https://lemmy.world/pictrs/image/d0e140b8-a221-45ba-a0b4-4df65a08ebd1.jpeg) It does extend just past the head, but not enough to keep it from tail standing. At least if you align it with the space. ![](https://lemmy.world/pictrs/image/5e1c73e2-7985-4fdc-af46-ed323fdeb3bb.jpeg)

Before this setup I had a Dr. Jones H17Fx with XHP50.3 HD and OP reflector. That setup went into an S8, which I think suits it a little better.
