Did I miss something? Did this already happen? I can’t seem to access the piracy community from lemmy.world, I’m getting a “couldnt_find_community” error

Agreed, it is quite odd. I’m also used to 12oz bags, so it’s hard to make it last before the next bag comes.

Great point, coffee is often inherently international! I’ll follow your lead and seek out a more global sampling

Oh that bag is a much cooler design, bring it back! You have international taste, I’m inspired. I’ll try the US-based ones first :)

That’s amazing, thank you for sharing! I don’t think I got in early enough to see the patches.

What is your current favorite roaster?

You’re welcome. Let me know what you think

I’ll have to check out Schuil, thank you! Any other Michigan gems you’d recommend? I’ve enjoyed Hyperion and Zingerman’s lately as well.

That polyrhythm that kicks in around 5:40 and lasts for 2 minutes. chef’s kiss

I also wanted to offer some ways to support the instances who are running things, at least the ones I use ;)

It’s a difficult one to count for sure. I found this video helpful to better understand it: https://youtu.be/JLYeGJzJMdU

Cannot wait. This will be my first time seeing Gojira live

This is fantastic news!

Thanks! Yep it’s the Mega-Monsters Tour, stoked to see Mastodon too.

I’ve been afraid to look at setlists, but that is one helluva setlist right there.

I’ve heard it a hundred times, and I still teared up a bit when listening to it today. Masterpiece, so emotionally and aurally heavy.

A lot of great responses here already. I wanted to offer a few thoughts.

What does quality mean to you when it comes to concentrates? For me, I search for solventless rosins that try to capture the flavor and essence of the strain/plant being used.

Concentrate quality is typically determined by:

1. Input material - What did they use to make the concentrate? Cured nugs, trim, whole plants? As they say, “Fire in = fire out”
2. Extraction method - Do they use some type of solvent (e.g. butane) to create the concentrate? Or is it solventless, and maybe created via ice water hash or press methods.

Comparing outputs:

• Distillate: While typically the most potent and used in vape carts, I’d generally say anything with distillate will be the least representative of the original material used (no taste), and something I try to avoid. Distillate = headaches, for me.
• Live / Cured Resin: Resin is extracted with solvents, and retains more of the plant’s profile of terpenes and flavonoids. A great budget concentrate option. This is typically where you’ll find shatters, waxes, budders/badders, crumble, sugar, etc.
• Live / Cured Rosin: Then we have Live Rosin which is extracted in a solventless method, and to me, is the best concentrate available. Full of flavor and character that is representative of the original plant/strain used. I’ve seen rosin come in shatter (fresh press), sauce, and badder-y variants.

EDIT: Also if texture can be an issue, I know people who swear by the Hot Knife by Puffco: https://www.puffco.com/products/the-puffco-hot-knife

That’s sick, sounds like a fun teacher! And agreed, The Moor is a whole journey in itself.

Love that. Similar story for me, but with that sudden drop in The Moor after the acoustic passage. It’s actually unbelievable they kept up the quality releases for so long.

Came to the comments to make sure Mike Patton was mentioned! One my favorite vocalists, with an incredible range of unique vocal styles across so many musical outfits: Mr. Bungle, Faith No More, Fantômas, Tomahawk, Peeping Tom, etc.

Still Life was my first introduction to Opeth. It took me a longer than it should have to go back and check out this album. This track, When, Demon of the Fall, all bangers.

Fun fact: the album name, “My Arms, Your Hearse”, is a reference to a Comus song called “Drip Drip”
