No worries! Reminds me of my early days of self-hosting. Got myself banned from my ISP for 48 hours for self-hosting. 😬
Thanks for sharing!
Aaaaand it’s down?
That’s a cute gimmick! Love it!! 😍
Well, the lazy answer is that if there’s a custom install mode, you don’t select the VC++ runtime components and just install the game.
Genuine question. Why doesn’t anyone Google their errors anymore? Or if you’re super lazy, copy pasting the screenshot into chatgpt or grok?
Take a look at Japanese brands like Muji.
Relatively cheap and usually very impressive quality and smoothness.
Wow, it’s a whole new level of f*cked up when Zuck collects more data than the Winnie the Pooh (DeepSeek). 😳
IMHO movies and other entertainment pieces should be judged/ranked based on how much they are pirated. Oscars-schmoscars!
Well that explains a lot… 🤦🏻♂️
Thanks for the insight! I work for a publicly-funded educational institution (a non-profit as well), and can attest to having to adhere to similar restrictions that you mentioned, albeit not 100% the same.
What you describe here sounds like technical debt that was assumed by the organization due to an initial lack of knowledge/experience in an environment where sufficient restrictions exist that effectively stifle organizational agility. This lack of agility in turn results in higher operational costs.
I think that’s ironic, because at the end if the day, the root cause of inflated operational costs happen to be the regulations/restrictions put in place to avoid frivolous spending in the first place.
Hi all, recently I acquired a number of 1kg tubs of Cafetto evo cleaner on sale. I figured since Breville/Sage backflush tablets are the 1.5g Cafetto variety (see photos), I can probably safely replace them with Cafetto powder.
Now, the powder comes with a little scoop. Each scoop of powder is about 3-4g of powder, so a lot more than a standard Breville 1.5g Cafetto tablet (see photo for dimensions of said tablets).
According to the instructions, I need a scoop of powder for each cleaning cycle. That’s at least 2x more mass than a Breville tablet. I wonder why that is…
Is the powder less concentrated than the Breville tablets? Maybe it’s the “evo” brand (certified organic) vs. the regular brand (organic version is “weaker” somehow)?
Or is it likely that the powder instructions are “universal”/generic and apply to all machines, from a tiny Bambino to big ass commercial units?
Most importantly, do you think it’s safe to use “too much” powder (i.e. one full scoop as per directions on the tub)? When I used the 1.5g Breville tablets with my machine, it took 2 cleaning cycles back to back to fully dissolve it, so I worry that if I run the cycle with 4g of powder, it’s gonna take forever to dissolve…
If there’s anyone here using Cafetto, Cafiza or similar powders with their Breville/Sage machine, please let me know your routine (how much powder by weight) and if you do anything else.
P.S. my machine comes with a blind portafilter rubber disc with no hole, so there’s no concern with the powder “squirting out” prematurely through the portafilter.
I appreciate your expertise and feedback on this one. Thanks in advance!!
