Heh I’m glad we aren’t friends in real life, you can’t consider anyone having a different approach. That is a choice too.

Don’t block access to a shared resource is a golden rule.
Here is the system as it exists in my kitchen.
The counter is a shared resource. Leaving dirty dishes there keeps people from using the counter for food prep, preparing leftovers, or anything else.
The sink is also a shared resource. Leaving dirty dishes there also blocks people from using the sink for food prep, but only really washing produce or draining pasta. Crucially, dishes in the sink does not block them from washing hands, filling up a glass of water, or… doing the dishes. Dishes also can’t be knocked onto the ground or get the counter dirty if they’re in the sink instead.
Since the sink is less affected by being blocked than the counter, people in my household tend to put things needing to be washed in the sink…into the sink. Then, they’re right where they need to be when it’s time to hand-wash them, or it is time to clear and wash the sink for food prep.
One of my pet peeves is when people leave dirty items where they were eating on the kitchen table or haphazard on the counter next to the sink… I get that the dishwasher was clean and they were in a hurry, but it makes the whole kitchen feel dirty. If you don’t have time, at least put them out of the way into the sink, which is coded as a “dirty” place by default, one that gets cleaned regularly and is meant to be cleaned often.
I would like to hear about your system too because I’m sure it makes equal sense to you.

I feel like a crazy person. I thought it was normal to put dishes in the sink and then wash them when you have enough…

I like Debian, it is boring in the best way.
I really did not like the process of upgrading from one stable version of Debian to the next. It went OK, but i remember being anxious the whole time, compared to Ubuntu’s gui workflow, and failing that, the one-command cli version that i always have to look up

- Comment on Why do most comedians have different drinks to drink? Most have water, Ricky usually has beer, some have whiskey and such. I get the lights make them thirst. But why not all water or something? 2 months ago:
An educator trick is that drinking from a coffee/water, etc is a natural way to buy yourself a moment to rest your voice, think of something clever, etc

That is amazing 🪶
Also the Wikipedia article has a link to this amazing piece: the highest-flying bird.
Also, and this is kind of morbid, turns out the reason they know it was flying so high is because one of them got sucked into an aircraft engine at that height…

Temperature is a measure of the average kinetic energy of particles of a thing. In the vacuum of space, there are very few particles, and they are mostly moving very very fast, which gives them high energy and high temperature.
I forget what happens at 40,000 m that causes the shift from cold atmosphere to “this is space” but that’s how the temperature is increasing – as you climb there are fewer and fewer particles, moving faster and faster.
