My Hubitat Elevation home automation hub *finally* arrived from the Ferengi great material continuum yesterday, after almost a week of bouncing around in Amazon's logistics system:
Thanks to WINK's impending bankruptcy and immoral extortion cash grab from existing users last week, I need to spend the next few days migrating my home automation system off of WINK before they turn their own (and my!) lights off. So far, I've managed to move one first-gen light switch...with a huge fight.....

That would depend on many factors. For the average joe who just drinks drip coffee probably not. If you drink a lot of espresso drinks and don't much care for becoming a barista, then yeah.
It's definitely still in the break-in phase and keeps getting better. That being said it's the only one I've owned so I can't compare to the higher end models that can go for thousands. First superautomatico I saw was in Spain at the breakfast area in one of the hotels we stayed. Now that thing made insanely good drinks, but it was a beast. |

Added to my miniature car collection.
74 Mazda Rotary Pick Up. Just like the full sized one I owned 20 years ago. Never should have sold that truck... |

I got tired of fucking around with my delonghi. Wasted so many shots grinding too fine or putting too much or too little. Some mornings I would give up and not drink shit. Should of probably gone this route from the start, but since I already had the delonghi I decided to get the grinder and try. If starting from scratch the price difference between this and the delonghi with grinder isn't much more. I guess it just depends if you are into the whole process of making the espresso. I found out I'm only into drinking it. |

And the dealership posted a message on the machine to something to the effect of: " please bear with us as we service this machine. The monthly maintenance costs of this machine is the same as the monthly payments of a BMW M6."

Those tools would serve me well at smaller operations.

That's so cool. I plan to do the same for my dad. He's wanted a truck all his life...just never had one.
After almost losing him recently, and seeing him recover......I will get him one once he is able to return to driving.

My Dad's always made sure the family had everything they needed, and now watching his pennies to be sure he and his wife enjoy a good retirement, so this is a present to give them a bit of fun and enjoyment in their daily routine. Why take a Toyota Yaris when you can take a Sunbeam Tiger!
