If you want more proof that selling legal pot is a booming business, consider this statistic: Denver has more medical-marijuana shops than Starbucks Corp. locations.

Denver's City Treasurer Steve Ellington tells ABC New affiliate Channel 7 that at least 390 pot dispensaries applied for a sales-tax license recently. That compares to 208 Starbucks in the entire state of Colorado, the station reports. Denver's city council took a step toward regulating the marijuana stores last night, and the businesses are filing their tax applications.

I don't see the point of Starbucks, I love making coffee and drinking it in the morning, and it kicks way more ass than theirs. Oh yea and it cost me about 1/8 of the price.

Is this legal legal Marijuana or "legal" Marijuana? That is the news.

"Man I wonder what I should do with all this money. Think I should get a lifetime supply of weed, a house, or a small coffee at the Starbucks? I do have two Starbucks choices... the one down the street, and the one across the street from it... What do you think Rufus? I might have enough for for a shot of flavoring."

That's NOT coffee

Frappé may refer to:
A milkshake in the Boston, Massachusetts dialect of American English (spelled without the accent: Frappe).

A milkshake is a sweet, cold beverage which is made from milk, ice cream or iced milk, and flavorings or sweeteners such as fruit syrup or chocolate sauce. Milkshakes are usually served in a tall glass with a straw, and whipped cream may be added as a topping. Several popular milkshake flavors include vanilla, chocolate, and strawberry. In some Commonwealth nations and some parts of New England in the United States, milkshakes are made without ice cream. In those areas, a milkshake made with ice cream is commonly called a frappe.

If I wanted to get a frappe I would go somewhere else, the name is Starbucks Coffee for a reason, to get coffee.

I wouldn't get anything there. I don't like the people that sit around in coffee shops with their laptops and pretend to be all intellectual writers and stuff. They buy something in the morning and sit their for like eight hours.

Free Wi-Fi?

I went there once, ordered some coffee and tasted the same as any coffee would, it just came with a heavier price.

The wifi actually isn't even free btw, you need a plan with AT&T or something. Or at least that's what it said when I tried to go online with my ipod touch last year.

    Crazy how much 3d printing has come in the last few years. Sad that it's not as easily modifiable though
  • Varine Varine:
    I bought an Ender 3 during the pandemic and tinkered with it all the time. Just bought a Sovol, not as easy. I'm trying to make it use a different nozzle because I have a fuck ton of Volcanos, and they use what is basically a modified volcano that is just a smidge longer, and almost every part on this thing needs to be redone to make it work
  • Varine Varine:
    Luckily I have a 3d printer for that, I guess. But it's ridiculous. The regular volcanos are 21mm, these Sovol versions are about 23.5mm
  • Varine Varine:
    So, 2.5mm longer. But the thing that measures the bed is about 1.5mm above the nozzle, so if I swap it with a volcano then I'm 1mm behind it. So cool, new bracket to swap that, but THEN the fan shroud to direct air at the part is ALSO going to be .5mm to low, and so I need to redo that, but by doing that it is a little bit off where it should be blowing and it's throwing it at the heating block instead of the part, and fuck man
  • Varine Varine:
    I didn't realize they designed this entire thing to NOT be modded. I would have just got a fucking Bambu if I knew that, the whole point was I could fuck with this. And no one else makes shit for Sovol so I have to go through them, and they have... interesting pricing models. So I have a new extruder altogether that I'm taking apart and going to just design a whole new one to use my nozzles. Dumb design.
  • Varine Varine:
    Can't just buy a new heatblock, you need to get a whole hotend - so block, heater cartridge, thermistor, heatbreak, and nozzle. And they put this fucking paste in there so I can't take the thermistor or cartridge out with any ease, that's 30 dollars. Or you can get the whole extrudor with the direct driver AND that heatblock for like 50, but you still can't get any of it to come apart
  • Varine Varine:
    Partsbuilt has individual parts I found but they're expensive. I think I can get bits swapped around and make this work with generic shit though
