It's not hard, it just isn't particularly efficient or convenient. The standard method is to use a bunch more water that you want to become actual ice, make it in large insulated blocks, then chop at the end. I have a little insulated tray that makes two at a time. They come out pretty clear, but at least half the water used is essentially waste to create a clear cube. The top half being still ice, but full of little bubbles, not clear. If I was throwing a party, as people are want to do on summer weekends, and I wanted many many big clear ice cubes then I'd seriously consider buying a box load.

I'm seeing this post for the first time, sitting at -30. I'm seeing it and yet it's pretty heavily down voted. I'm not browsing by controversial or something like that.

Anyway, downvotes don't really work the same way to hide unpopular posts the way you're used to reddit doing. People aren't enjoying it and are in fact still seeing it, so maybe just check yourself before getting hostile.

Why do you think this is about drinking coffee that tastes bad? I hate flavored coffee. I love coffee that has its own strong flavors (and I love a variety of those flavors from beans grown in different places and in different preparations). I also hate bitter poorly prepared coffees. Coffee should taste good, but it can also rock my mornings like only Grace Jones in a leather loincloth can.

Performative declarations that things people enjoy are cringe is also cringe.

Wow, if the demo was too much for the developers to maintain that doesn't inspire confidence in my patience to maintain it on my machine.

They sometimes track, record, log evidence, and wait for the losses to accrue enough to prosecute at a higher level.

The behavior in question is a viral meme just like the post. Some kitties/kiddies learn to entertain themselves unspooling the roll, some never do. In a household with the potential for some bored gremlin learning this behavior it can be safer to just not present the opportunity, even if the behavior hasn't been seen before.

Not OP, but I have similar feelings and they have nothing to do with the client or plugins. If I can't easily and securely share my Jellyfin with the Internet beyond my LAN without resorting to a VPN, then Jellyfish is not going to come close to replacing Plex. Sharing my library securely with tech illiterate family and any browser I have access to, without modification, was the one and only reason I moved away from XBMC/Kodi and installed Plex in the first place. Jellyfin is fine inside my LAN and for my personal use, totally fails at hosting.

Maybe that's an E, but the rest isn't text, it's sheet music. It's a shame it's cropped because, although I've seen a bunch of example of illuminated texts, I've not often seen such embellishments on sheet music.

A bee headbutting you is not necessarily an agressive act, could be just investigatory on the part of the bee. I've walked into the heart of a flowering shrub covered in hungry bees, during which they either ignored me or headbutted me. As long as "defending the hive" isn't part of the bee interaction, they are usually very chill but remain very curious. I'm still careful when the headbutts happen because accidents happen and a confused bee tangled in hair may still sting. But I have also gently untangled a bee or two without anyone getting hurt.

Even when defending the hive, bees seem to prefer as little direct agression as possible. I've stepped into a clearing and suddenly found myself way too close to a wild bee hive and got stung exactly once by a bee that got tangled in my hair as I fled the approaching swarm.

I've also gotten a solitary wasp tangled in my hair, near no hive or any flowers, and gotten stung 3 times on one knuckle as thanks for setting them free. The bees have taught me to treat them with compassion and respect. The wasps have taught me to react with murder and extreme violence before they are even aware of me.

Both are pollinators though. So despite the animosity, I don't go out of my way to wage war against wasps the way I do mosquitoes.

Who hasn't wanted at one time to buy $37 worth of burrito?

What Mexican $37 or American $37?
