Bunch of stuff here. Zen.

Especially if all your chopsticks are already down there.

On a related subject, this video goes pretty deep into real estate development and why American garages are shrinking.

Thanks! I don’t know if my starter is alive or not, but it’s been staring at me from the back of my fridge for months.

I’m American, but I bake a lot. I’ve only ever seen ml for liquid in international bread recipes. More commonly it’s just expressed in weight and, occasionally, in bakers ratios.

I always liked the dL/dM measurements when they were teaching metric in school. Decameters, in particular, always seemed like a great unit, as it’s so easy to estimate with a hand-span. My second language is Spanish. I know there are words for the deca measurements, but I’ve never heard them used.

For being so universal, I find that the way metric is implemented has a ton of variability country-to-country. I remember learning some basic Italian for travel, and discovering that etto is a common measurement there (1/10 KG). It seems like a much more human-scale unit, as opposed to ordering everything in hundreds of grams.

I’m going to save this for fall, when the nuts show up at the farmers market.

What did you do to reduce the tangyness, and how do I reverse it?

Also, deciliters? I haven’t seen that (or decimeters) since middle school. That’s 100ml, right?

Any decent person would trash it afterwards.

I only use my card for software access.

With just Libby, Hoopla, and Mango Languages, The card has saved me thousands of dollars.

Especially those at work who can’t install their own software.

Along with the obvious physical maturation, his clothes are cut much better. Those billowing shorts in the first picture make him look undersized.

I haven’t started. It looks amazing.

I’m currently knee-deep in my first serious attempt at fo4 Survival.

I’m hoping I’ll be able to play it later after some updates and, hopefully, without all the Steam fiddling.

I was going to offer another Jim Butcher series, the Codex Alera. It’s a hack-and-slash mix of Roman fantasy and Pokemon. Fantastic stuff.

Depending on the brand and ingredients, I think there’s a difference between prepared frozen food and ultraprocessed food. When I hear ultraprocessed I think pink-slime hotdogs, spam, sugary hamburger buns, etc.

In terms of health, I don’t know that there’s much of a difference between a frozen burrito and one made at home, provided the meat isn’t abnormal.

Edit: I got curious. Here’s the Ultraprocessed Foods Quiz from the archive.

It’s farcical.

When a company introduces something consumers want, we will research and find a way to get it and use it ASAP. Nobody needs to interrupt our workflow to tell us about it. I don’t remember getting any in-app notifications for the Gmail select all “feature,” but I figured it out pretty damn quickly.

Hunters fly with firearms sometimes. It just depends on the customs regulations. I’ve seen it at the airport. You check the bag and declare it. I’m sure there’s some amount of paperwork, depending on the country.

Depends on the thickness of the slice.

Absolutely!

Oh shit thank you so much.

My towel was still in the dryer. That would have been an annoying way to start the week.

Get to bed on time so I can face the Monday blues on 8 hours sleep.

No idea what our first computer was, but it was BIG. The first thing I did was play games. This would’ve been somewhere around 87-89.

Seriously. I’d consider over sixty an anomaly right now, but it won’t be in the future.

If you grew up with games, they’re too imbedded in your entertainment routine to give up.
