Any word on when these will drop? It's usually out by now, and SAQ and many other places have been released for weeks.

Usually I get my orders within a week of ordering, but now it's been almost a month and still nothing. I've also noticed several vintages emails that mention certain special releases, and then something completely different is released. Has something changed behind the scenes for vintages online? Seems sloppier than usual.

I'm looking to get a gravel bike. Right now I have an old 2011 carbon fiber Madone (that I rarely use anymore) and a cheap single speed I use for commuting to work and biking around the city. I want a bike that I can commute to work but also go on rides on the local trails. Most of my rides would be 50km and under and on city roads, paved trails, and gravel trails so nothing too serious.
I was originally leaning towards the Diverge 4 Sport which is $2750 CAD. It's definitely the better bike, but I feel it may be overkill for my needs. I found a new Checkpoint ALR4 Gen 2 at a LBS for $1900 CAD (20% off), and that pricepoint appeals to me a lot more. Will I regret getting the cheaper bike

Was priced low and had lots of interest. Seems like a good price though. Thought it would go between $1.1-1.2M.

I ripped up some carpet and sheet vinyl flooring in our basement to lay down LVP, but there is a 1/4" difference in subfloor height where the carpet pad was. Should I just lay down 1/4" plywood on top of the lower area? Can I use OSB to save on costs? Any other options?

I'll be in Kyoto for 4 days in April with my wife, and I have refundable rooms at both hotels and can't decide which one to keep. The Solaria is $90 more per night, but also has a bigger room (25m2 vs 16m2) and the hotel has an onsen. Has anyone stayed at both and have a preference?

I got a KF7 a few weeks ago, and am having trouble dialing in the right settings. The espresso is coming out too sour. I've been trying out a bunch of fresh beans from local third wave roasters (most on the darker roast side but not oily), and often do milk based drinks.
I've adjusted the grinder to be 2 clicks finer than center, have temp set to high, strength high, and body medium. Any ideas?
Thanks

SpaceX is rumoured to be buying GlobalStar. Since that came out, MDA stock price has dropped from $33 down to $28. Anyone using this as an oppurtunity to buy in?
