8·8 days agoMaui’s rare silversword plants on Haleakala are dying from increased warmth and drought (2019 article)
From https://www.nps.gov/hale/learn/nature/silversword.htm
The silvery hairs, fleshy leaves, and low-growing rosette form of the Haleakalā silversword (Argyroxiphium sandwicense subsp. macrocephalum) allow it to survive in hot, dry climates like the aeolian desert cinder slopes of the crater. Silverswords live between 3 and 90 years or more. They flower once, sending up a spectacular flowering stalk, and then die soon afterward, scattering drying seeds to the wind.
All he really wanted was the Happy Meal toy.
Depends on the type of murder.
And type of coffee.
Oh debianastro made an alt account, or an alt instance. That explains how this got past my block filter.
Subtle propaganda for diverting public school funds to segregated private schools through vouchers.
Thereby further weakening unionized teachers, and the middle class as a whole.

It’s mostly blends, with some store brands and national brand runs (Starbucks, Dunkin’, etc,) that are almost expired.
I saw some Korean pre-brewed in laminated bags that were probably intended for restaurant use.
Every now and they they get some single origin. I’ve seen random Ugandan, Mexican, but nothing that would be considered terribly expensive like Kona, Blue Mountain, Ethiopian Yirgacheffe, or stuff like that.
It’s stuff that the wholesalers are trying to get rid of cheaply before it expires.
That stuff isn’t bad at all, most of the time.
Just don’t buy the obvious cheap instant, and it’s fine.
Grocery Outlet, a US nationwide discount grocery chain that specializes in discounted products from overproduction runs.
A surprisingly diverse selection of coffee is usually available, and lets me sample different varieties, some even in whole bean.
Some that I’ve tried near its “best by” date has been decent.
Their house brand has been pretty good.

But don’t be so choosy with your allies, or you’ll find yourself standing alone.
I am reading that lemmy.zip geoblocks UK IP addresses due to stupid UK Online Safety Act of 2023, so maybe suggest a different instance for UK users?

From what I have heard, the Italians use milk/cream to cut the bitterness of their espresso and moka pots.
I kind of hate the bitterness that I get out of my moka pot, so I can believe that.
Otherwise, I find that a well brewed coffee (French press, aeropress, cucumella, moka pot) is so rich in oils, that they really don’t need anymore fat.
Something like instant tho… Needs creamer desperately.
But sweetener… I hate coffee without sweetener.

Enh, I didn’t want to be fertile anyway.
Blooming coffee grounds does have some effect on the final brew. https://www.seriouseats.com/the-hows-and-whys-of-blooming-coffee
But in a French press, I just fill it up to my mark, wait a few seconds, and swirl the grounds around to get rid of the CO2 bubbles.
It’s not good coffee unless there’s a bowel movement soon afterwards.
The water compressed by half in step 4.
She must be using a high quality french press!
Of my rotation of brewers, I find myself enjoying the coffee that I get out of my cucumella, the Neapolitan flip over brewer, the most.
Intense, rich flavor from just about any kind of dark roast, even a little viscosity, with a minimum of fuss compared to a moka pot.
My moka pot gives even more intense flavor, but it’s just too much work to clean, and takes too long because it actually requires you to boil the water inside it to actually work.
I really, really hate prying the filter funnel out of the moka pot boiler.
So much so that I put a dent along the edge of the funnel so that I can more easily pry the damned thing out, which is something I have to do twice in the brewing process, which gets old really fast.
