I'm not really sure what point you're trying to make, since I very clearly wrote I also don't think this was Google's fault (even if they did stop sending people through that area a mere couple of weeks after this incident).

I also don't think it's fair to blame these people for this, and so I'm trying to understand what you would've done differently in the same situation.

And what exactly would you have done differently? At what point would you have started to ignore the GPS directions and randomly drive around in an area you know nothing about?

This isn't the same as driving off a cliff or the wrong direction on a one-way road, these people were targeted by experienced criminals. I'm not saying it's Google's fault, but maybe let's try to avoid blaming the victims of a vicious attack.

It doesn't really contain a spoken word part, but the poor pronunciation made me think of Yes Sir, I Can Boogie by Baccara.

I highly recommend a scale (with 0.1g precision) to weigh how much coffee goes in vs how much liquid comes out. Without it you're just going to be eyeballing and that will quickly become frustrating (I've been there). No need to spend a lot of money, a cheap €20 one will get you a long way.

Once you get a scale, you can follow this simple recipe:

1. grind 18g of coffee (weigh the grounds, do not weigh the beans unless you have a very good grinder with low/no retention)
2. Extract your espresso for 30 seconds
3. Weigh the liquid in the cup, it should be around 36g (1:2 ratio). If it's under 36g you're grinding too fine, if it's over then you're grinding too coarse.
4. Repeat until you consistently get it right.

After it's dialed in, you can start making micro-adjustments to your liking.

This one also falls under the category of dual overdrive pedals, but I'm a big fan of the Electro-Harmonix Hot Wax.

I've been using Loop for a year or two and it's great.

I ended up going with addy.io since their Lite plan is cheaper and offers what I'm currently looking for, but I'll keep SimpleLogin in mind for whenever I need to upgrade.

I signed up for addy.io's Lite plan since it supports multiple formats for the From header, and an option to move/disable the forwarding banner - exactly what I was looking for!

I've heard of them before, good to know they support this. I'll check out their plans, thanks!

I was aware of SimpleLogin but I hadn't heard of this service before, thanks for the tip! I'll try to check them out and come back with a comparison.

Thanks for the recommendation! Unfortunately this approach doesn't really work for me since my domain includes my real name, I'm also relying on email masking for some degree of anonymity.

I don't roast coffee myself, but what I've been told is that espresso roasts run hotter and longer, which makes the coffee more soluble and less sour.

Check out a local roaster around you and grab a bag of whatever they use for their espressos. You probably won't get the best of the best immediately, but it will help you start figuring out what you like and do not like.

In Amsterdam: I get my daily espresso coffee beans from Five Ways, and whenever I feel like taking it up a notch I try a bag from Uncommon. Highly recommend both.

I didn't get an answer, but I'm now pretty sure it's not possible yet.

Not explicitly, but I'm now pretty sure it's not possible yet.

The only possible answer is House of the Dead, followed by all other Uwe Boll movies.

So far I haven't been checking in which instances the OP was registered, but I'll keep an eye out to confirm.
