Small building HOAs like this are for managing joint property like the roof, common stairs and yard work. They also hold insurance and pay common utilities.

It’s not the same as a subdivision HOA that tells you what color your house can be and how short the grass must be

Generally good throughout the first season. Already greenlit for season two

The name Mar-a-Lago means “sea to lake” in Spanish, reflecting the fact that the estate extends from one end of Palm Beach Island to the other, touching the Atlantic Ocean on the east and the Lake Worth Lagoon on the west

The sun is a miasma of incandescent plasma The sun’s not simply made out of gas, no The sun is a quagmire, it’s not made of fire Forget what you’ve been told in the past

I think of timing as a proxy for many other factors like grind size, puck prep, tamping, flow rate and pressure.

I don’t think of changing the shot time to get a better result.

I do think of a (bad) shot time as an indicator that something should change

One time I was at a specialty beer and cheese shop and I saw this guy pushing a cart alone with two children. He generally looked beaten down and glum. The kids are rambunctious, he’s exhausted, wife is missing but obviously in the store with them.

He is browsing the cases, killing time waiting for his wife to come back. He grabs a small block of cheese, looks interested it and adds it to the cart.

A few minutes later, the wife returns and immediately spots the cheese block. She picks it up and screams “$10? For a block of cheese you haven’t even TRIED yet? Absolutely not.”

Then she hurled it back in the case and stomped off while he sullenly followed her with the cart and kids

Shakshuka with some pita is one of my comfort foods. I use David Lebovitz’s recipe

A state level block on protonvpn would be at the IP block level based on known, published exit nodes.

Corporate VPNs are point to point and would not be impacted

Not exactly. In the novel/tv show the Three Bodies are stars that are interacting with a fourth object, the planet Trisolaris.

Because the movements of the three suns are unpredictable, they never know when the climate of the planet will be habitable.

Yeah I was tired when I wrote that original comment.

There’s the 7-9-J-Q four card straight flush

There’s also the A-Q-J-9straight, but I think it doesn’t count as a straight flush.

I dunno, I am always pleasantly surprised when things are actually straight flushes with those two jokers

• First joker allows for skips in straights
• Second joker blurs suits by color (clubs are spades, diamonds are hearts)
• Third joker allows you to make straights and flushes with four cards
• The ace is not scored here

I use Arctic for Lemmy on iOS

Typically for devices that require a hub, it’s because they do not have WiFi chips. Often manufacturers leave off WiFi chips because the power draw is too high for the batteries, but there are other reasons too.

The hub act as a bridge between whatever local networking protocol is used (zigbee, z-wave, BLE) and the LAN. For example, a lightbulb may use z wave to talk to a hub, the hub uses Ethernet/wifi to connect to the LAN, the LAN connects to the WAN.

In some cases, you can setup a system that controls everything locally without needing an internet connection at all. This is often preferred in the home automation space by users who want to ensure reliable access to devices.

Some centralized hubs can talk directly to many brands of devices without needing many proprietary hubs, but they tend to be expensive or require a licensed dealer to install.

For a DIY option, look into Home Assistant running on a raspberry pi

I’ve been using hardcover.app it’d a little rough around the edges but a lot better than Goodreads from a UX perspective
