Can someone explain what COLLA GREENS means in this context? Collared greens?

An easy way to get around this would be replaceable batteries. Like how mobile phones used to work.

Running low? Pop to the nearest charging station and swap your battery for a fully charged one. Or bring a spare. I've seen a video of it being done for scooters, don't see why it can't be scaled up for cars

I just went through a little rabbit hole reading up on this and what an interesting bit of info! Thank you for sharing!

To anyone else interested:Wikipedia entry it's under 'production'.

I've got a very similar experience to you. Bought a barista express at half the price about 4 to 5 years ago when it was on clearance (display model) at half the price. Impulse buy but honestly one of the best purchases I've ever made. Years later I still can't get a consistent froth on my milk.

I've noticed that the steam wand produces a different pressure of steam every time. Sometimes it's like a jet and sometimes it's just a whistle. Spoke to a technician that came to repair my pressure gauge and he told me it probably wasn't cleaned out properly but I clean it and flush it every time. Even drown the thing in milk detergent after every use.

Still, have loads of fun and coffee is great by my standards

I do recall a gaming controller being used to pilot the titan submersible that is now on the ocean floor. May their souls rest in peace.

I actually prefer Google for shopping. Just turn off your adblocker, search for a particular item you want to buy and bam your first 3 to 4 pages are retailers pushing the product with their prices listed (with a touch of scam websites that I presume pay for advertising). Anything else I add 'Reddit' or just watch a few YouTube videos depending on what kind of answers I'm looking for
