Same for me. I like drinking white jasmine tea, but the flavor becomes too bitter if you pour boiling water over the leaves. It’s better to drink at 80 or even 70 degrees (sorry, don’t know the F one).

I used to make tea for my coworkers back when we had a team room and got way into it. I had my own little kettle, all kinds of tea leaves, a weighing scale spoon and even a thermometer :)
I learned that pre-heating your kettle was important for black teas because boiling water would drop to 90 degrees or even less if you didn’t.

That kind of context just makes it more adorable :)

Thank you for keeping this behind a nsfw, I appreciate it.

Yea it was the “small dollar donors” part that threw me off.
Well done, you :)

I hate that I genuinely can’t tell if this is satire or not. The quoted parts at least.

This is just what I needed, I’ve always wanted to learn how to hard my decisions.

thanks :)

Here are the final scores:

That makes me the winner, yay! :) Thank you for all your votes!

Had many ideas, this is my favorite one.

Futuristic city split diagonally, one half in fiery orange and red tones, the other in cool blue and turquoise, buildings melting into each other, surreal architecture, high detail, ultra sharp, dynamic lighting, cyberpunk aesthetic, atmospheric depth.

Oh god yes, especially now that all of them use led lights. Mine still uses an old-fashioned light, which is great when you’re alone on the road because your night vision can deal with the rest. But I turn completely blind when an oncoming bike shines one of those led-lights directly in my face.
I’ve already ran off the path twice so far because I couldn’t see where I was cycling (it was at a bicycle path through the park without street lights)

I never played a lot of FPS, but I loved the Quake rocket launcher. It was fun to jump around with in multiplayer. But what I enjoyed most of all was the satisfaction of guessing when someone rounded the corner and having a rocket land at the exact same time.

Has mistral been any good so far with images? I hadn’t really considered it as an option before.

Pretty, love the concept!

Fjällraven is a Swedish brand with a Swiss parent company.
Their stuff is pricey but quite durable.

Sorry for not replying earlier, it was a busy day yesterday. Glad to see you already solved it!
