  • 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.





  • 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.





  • I had Neatos for years. They worked great until they didn’t; I always had to do a lot of troubleshooting. Now I have a Wyze vacuum, which I think is a rebrand of a larger Chinese brand. It doesn’t clean as well as the Neatos, but it’s had no problems so far, and it was much cheaper.

    There’s plenty of reviews out there if you want to get into it, and it does seem like some of the more expensive ones out there have some really nice features. But if you’ve been on the fence for a while my advice is to pick a well reviewed affordable one and go for it.

    Once you have something cleaning your floors you’ll have more time to research which one is the ultimate vacuum.
