Are you referring to that info wars conspiracy theory about hillary being a hologram with your comment about the green screen? Because that's been completely debunked as nothing more than an illusion created by a combination of the cameras position, the lens being used (both on the camera and on the phones of the people in the crowd), and the high compression of the data being sent via satellite back to the studio.

Not that she's being green screened rather the crowd is.

an equally ridiculous notion

Really? Why? If you look at all the cell phones in the front of the crowd there are big things missing from the screens like the American flag and Hillary. Some screens show different rooms entirely.

I don't think it necessarily speaks for how many supporters each candidate has, but I do think the representation has some merit.  Especially when you consider the stigma for being a Trump supporter, and even being physically threatened an attacked, that that many people still show up, yet Hillary's crowds look more like a nursing home gathering.  It might show more that Trump's supporters are more passionate about him and this election, or that more people genuinely like him.  Because from what I've seen personally and what others have commented, it doesn't seem like people really like Hillary, they're just misinformed and/or unthinking anti-Trumpers because of.. what?  False assumptions more often than not. 

As to how they're tied, I honestly have no idea.  Polls vary wildly, and trust in the media is at an all-time low, so it's becoming difficult to trust most polls.  And when you throw in how low the trust in Hillary is, it makes, well at least me, skeptical whenever data shows Hillary with a wide lead.  My guess as to how she's doing so well is again tied to misinformation on both parts, or worse, people willingly, or not, turning a blind eye to just how much Hillary has done wrong, like saying all women with rape allegations deserve to be heard, unless its against her husband; having a hand in the American deaths in Benghazi; creating a power vacuum in the middle east be having Gaddafi taken out; voting for the war in Iraq (which people like to over look and call Trump a warmonger); being extremely careless with national security; conniving with the DNC against Bernie; the list goes on, and somehow people turn a blind eye to all of the that because... Trump's racist? No, the DNC referred to the hispanics as "Taco Bowls".  Because he's mean? The truth doesn't care about your feelings.  He was obsessed over Obama's birther?  Well that's kind of important to be president, he did the same with Cruz, and Hillary started the "birtherism".  Honestly, I couldn't tell how they're nearly tied.  Other than accounting for illegal votes from voter fraud and illegal immigrants, which lets be honest, the left only cares about the third-world illegals because the overwhelmingly vote left.

Thank you.

Or rather should it matter?


I came across this article claims that the amount of populous present at a candidate's rally does not reflect their support in votes. Which to a point makes sense because not everyone who goes to rallies may vote.







Now my question to you is: How can they be nearly tied? Hillary's crowds are being constantly scrutinized for using a green screen at her rallies, because her rally outcomes have been so low (some think it's due to her health... but that's a whole different topic of it's own). Whereas Trump has been filling stadiums with thousands of more people outside who were not able to get in. How does that not vocalize what voters want? Does size matter? I think it should.

Trying not to die. Aka living life

Reheating brewed coffee is bad juju. Ultimately you're doing very little more than heating up a regular cup of coffee. Cold brew isn't special, it just takes more ground and time because of a lack of heat.

You are correct about re-heating coffee it actually destroys some of the flavor notes. Also Cold Brew tends to have a sweeter taste with a thicker body, but it takes the same amount of coffee to water ratio as normal brewed coffee.

Cold brew uses twice as much coffee as a regular-strength pot of drip or French press.

Good tip for those that like their coffee less bitter: add a pinch or two of salt to the grounds before brewing. You can also just put a dash of table salt into a cup of coffee, but I've never done that so I can't speak to its efficacy.

Cold brew doesn't actually take twice the grounds, when it's done brewing you have to add water or you'll be buzzing from how concentrated it is. Made that mistake my first batch, almost killed me.

Yeah at Sbux they are required to add water to their handcrafted cold brew before handing it off to the customer even if they ask for cream with it it still gets water added to the cup.

Because





and I like pushing the limitations of the rules

Did you use a french press for this process?


You can use a coffee filter with a rubber band and a plastic bain-marie to avoid getting that metallic taste from the french press.

We're basically in a temp Anarchy right now

and only 9 of us online....

You're supposed to drink cold brew cold... What temp was the water you steeped it in?

I used to have to make it at Starbucks everyday... it was a pain in the ass and then the bag would go moldy if you forgot to take it out and then you had to throw out the whole batch (we would pour it into two pitchers at a time so we could avoid serving moldy  coffee...)

your avatar is broken.
