  • even though every restaurant has an espresso machine it doesn’t mean they clean it, and doesn’t mean their staff knows how to use it properly. Water temps too high, too much coffee grounds, over compressed, lowest quality beans. Fucking everywhere. It’s awful.

    And this is why, as an Italian, I can’t drink espresso anywhere in the world. 9/10 is just awful

    Those terms are an American invention. As for Italy

    • Latte = plain old milk. Can be cold or hot, it’s milk
    • Caffelatte = probably the origin of the American “latte”, literally means coffee and milk, usually made and home with cold or hot milk and moka coffee
    • Latte macchiato = big cup of milk, frothy on top, with a shot of espresso in it
    • Caffè macchiato = espresso with a shot of milk, can be frothy




  • Afaik most laptops with Qualcomm X chips seem to be even more efficient than Apple’s Macbooks, at least when running native code. The biggest problem they are having is platform maturity, Microsoft has spent the last decade doing all the wrong decisions, and now they are waiting for software developers to port their code to ARM, while Apple has had a 4-year head start.

    The chips are not bad though. As for competing, there’s really no competition as Apple uses their chips exclusively on their laptops, so there’s literally no room for any competition.
