I just had the hardest hit of nostalgia wave over me. Thanks for sharing!

I own both. I daily use my AeroPress. I use my Moka about twice a month. They’re both great brewers, but the Moka isn’t for making a good daily cup or espresso. The coffee you get from it is unique. If you make a lot of milk beverages, I think the Moka is a decent way to make coffee for that use, but you’ll also need a good way to froth and steam your milk.

I’d go with an AeroPress and check out the various brew methods available to achieve your desired results.

This is the best possible resource on moka pot brewing. There’s two more in the series, but this is a great way to understand how to get the best possible coffee out of your pot.

  1. A modest house.
  2. A second (functioning) vehicle for my family.
  3. Some apartments that I can turn into transitional housing for houseless and/or low income families, along with a staff of full time handymen, social workers, and counselors for facilities and transitional support.
  4. Create a healthcare fund/endowment investment managed by someone competent. It would be used to pay medical collections debts using the interest it draws.
  5. I dunno. A billion dollars goes a long way. Well above and beyond any amount I ever anticipate needing, let alone having. Maybe some Picassos to hang in my modest house.

Meanwhile, my little town struggles to fill potholes…

Here’s where I tip:

  1. Restaurant’s where waitstaff come to my table for my order and with my food.
  2. Small coffee shops where the person taking my order is also making my coffee.

Nowhere else. AND, I have a small stash of bills that I use to tip in cash. Never use the built-in tipping feature.

Apple Music exists on Android and is very good. Supports all sorts of Android specific features. It’s a good citizen of the platform.

In many cases, a priest, minister, or pastor has received education in counseling, theology, and ministerial care. While one might discount the necessity of theological education, a good seminary will ensure that there is a foundation from which emotional support might be offered.

GIMP is great and all, but it’s got nothing on some of the modern features of Photoshop.

AltStore, Sports Alerts, and Obico. All on my home page along with the Photos memories widget.

Alt Store keeps me updated on my need to update.
Sports Alert helps me keep tabs on the only sport and team I follow.
Obico gives me a little image of my active 3D Print and a percentage complete bar.

I do wish that they all updated more frequently, but they’re all helpful for things I want to keep track of, even when I’m not in a place to do so.

This is a great suggestion. I don’t know why I’ve not done this before now. Everything I design has a radius on it and I’ve been doing it the hard way.
