I don’t mind when it’s an obvious break followed by a new scene. I do mind when the break is in the middle of a scene and they essentially replay the last thirty seconds before continuing the story. It just feels very disjointed and dated.

Honestly one of my favorite features. Lemmy would be nearly unusable for me without it.

Yes, the used ones are still pretty good though. I think the ID3 and ID4 are the successors to the eGolf.

Volkswagen E-golf seems to fit your description.

What’s the point of those types of bots, though? I guess they’re just trying to have vaguely genuine looking accounts to use for some future purpose, maybe political or advertising related.

What I don’t miss from reddit is the bot comments. Not the novelty bots that reply if your comment is in alphabetical order or something like that, but actual chat gpt responses to regular posts or comments.

I have no idea what the point of them is, but they’re awful.

Premium, aka so slippery it immediately goes in a case.

I’ve heard that an oil primer is the way to go for kitchen cabinets. Wood filler or bondo should work for repairing those edges.

No, OP said they only found one.

Same, except I just look at all local communities. All communities lemmy wide ends up having too many duplicates.

Imagine skipping from 1920 to 2020…

Honestly I don’t even bother subscribing to comminuted. Communities for me are opt-out via muting rather than opt-in via subscriptions. I still see posts from the news community even though I have several Gaza keywords filtered out.

I recommend some keyword filters. I use them to reduce certain topics from my feed, specifically about certain wars or politicians or celebrities. I did the same thing on reddit to filter out some of the “awareness” campaigns where everyone posted about the FCC chair to every single sub.

I also just browse local communities instead of the entire fediverse. This defeats the purpose of the fediverse, but it drastically reduces the number of duplicate and NSFW communities. I then mute the communities I don’t want to see. I’ll also mute the hyper specific communities that usually have complete overlap with the more general community, i.e. dogs and dogpictures.

It takes some work to get your feed to your liking, but it’s worth it in the end. There’s still far less content available than on reddit, but the amount of quality content feels similar.

I recently started doing something similar with my cold brew. I found that I actually prefer either a lot of creamer or no creamer. The middle ground of some or a little creamer just doesn’t taste right to me. One unexpected benefit is that omitting creamer has made rinsing/washing my cup much easier.

The biggest issue for me was always filtering. Having a hole in the bottom to drain without having to kick up all the grounds made the whole process so much easier. I actually got into cold brew because I liked the convenience of store bought, but not the price. Haven’t made a pot of hot coffee in over a year!

I’ve heard people say cold brew is the best way to deal with bad coffee. I just like the convenience of having it ready to drink instead of having to brew it fresh every morning.

Toddy has a cold brew container that makes the process really easy. It has a filter disc at the bottom. I ended up buying some reusable cotton filter bags since their paper filters were a bit expensive.

I use the 12 oz whole bag of coffee per batch and fill the toddy up with water to the top. It makes about two liters/quarts of coffee. I usually top up the pitcher I store the coffee in with a few ounces of water in an attempt to keep the concentration consistent between batches.

I would argue that standard calculations are all almost entirely useless. This (painfully long) article from Steve Hoggins talks about seat setback for road bikes: https://www.stevehoggbikefitting.com/bikefit/2011/05/seat-set-back-for-road-bikes/

Saddles being too high is a very common fit issue. Steve Hoggins has a ton of great information on his site about bike fits. For me personally, my saddle being too high felt right for my legs, but resulted in too much weight on my hands.

Part of the frustration of diy bike fitting is there really aren’t that many symptoms. We only have three contact points to feel wrong, but way more things to possibly adjust. For me, the solution to my hand weight problem was a new bike one size smaller.

Here’s the article about seat height: https://www.stevehoggbikefitting.com/bikefit/2011/02/seat-height-how-hard-can-it-be/

Weight on your hands is more likely to be a saddle issue. Start by lowering your saddle about half an inch to see if it helps.
