Infinite ice whenever you want, uh, yes, add to cart

Even KINGS never knew such luxury

    A well designed back yard with a gardener to help keep it nice and tidy. I fucking love flowers and landscaping, but I just can’t do it myself.

    My wife wanted an ice maker. Thought it a silly idea but indulged her nonetheless. Well, turns out I freaking love it. Well worth the investment in my opinion

    Is an icemaker an absurd luxury? Practically ever fridge I have ever owned has come with one, except like when I was a kid in the 70s.

        Fair, though I feel like most do nowadays? And I’m not living in some McMansion or anything, I’m on the poor end of things, but still I can’t think of a house I’ve lived in in the last ~30 years that didn’t have it.

          In my case, the house I bought had been renovated before I bought it, but so poorly that it was considered a “fixer-upper” anyway. Technically, the kitchen has a refrigerator water supply, but the layout was so awkward that I ended up putting a cabinet in front of it and putting my refrigerator on the other side of the room.

          I eventually ended up getting a countertop ice maker for ~$150, which is less convenient than a built-in one would be, but is also kinda nice because it makes relatively fancy, chewable “nugget” ice.

      I just bought a house with a 12x12 room in the back of the upstairs for my gf to create exactly this. She loves it. Has a rocking chair, blanket, and a half dozen bookcases filled up.

      I hope you get the same one day!

    A nugget ice machine. Nuggets ice is the perfect chewing ice - not too hard it will crack teeth, even consistency unlike crushed ice, firm like tight packed snow. It’s like chewing on frosty heaven.

    But it’s absurdly expensive for what little it does. At least a couple hundred dollars for a counter top ice maker that does nothing but make perfect ice.

      Yessss.

      My first year of university, I lived in residence and the cafeteria had a nugget ice machine. Every day before class I’d swing through and fill my water bottle to the brim with ice and top if off with water. I’d have enough ice to crunch until my classes were done (not in class, I’m not a monster).

      I miss it so much.

      Also, a post-mix bar gun. Mostly just for carbonated water, because I’m also a fizz addict and those things are just fun.

      The Romans would have thought that even Kings did not enjoy such luxuries as an ice maker. They would be all “what sorcery is this?!”

      I will never regret having purchased one, after leveraging the cost of getting drinks from Sonic to have access to the ice it seemed to make sense, now we just don’t eat out anymore.

    Air-conditioned dhed with high volume air cleaning for toxic actibities like soldering, plastic models, spray painiting, 3-D printing…

    And a 3-d printer with a cross section of a metre on a side. I am sick of having to cut up designs, I want to print an entire extended-ATX case in a single run.
