it depends on how it’s stored, and a lot of the problems will come from the cork rather than the wine.

In my house, the toilet seat and lid are down when not in use. Because I have a cat and she’s the kind of idiot that will jump into the toilet and then track toilet water into my bed.

Every now and again you’ll see a Tomb Raider cosplayer who has stuffed a box up her shirt and it’ll never not be funny.

There was an early episode of House where a clinic segment had a white chick in hemp clothing bring her baby in for a runny nose, proudly proclaimed that they “weren’t vaccinating.” House goes on about baby coffins. I did not see that issue slop so hard to the right.

A template or jig, yeah. If I’ve got more than one part to make, especially if they need to match in some substantial way, I set up a stop of some kind.
At some point I may attempt to build a project to a scored storey stick rather than to measurements, but on the other hand I may not.

The fun one is a nautical mile. Which is 6076.12 feet. How’d we get there? A nautical mile is equal to a minute of latitude, which happens to be just a bit bigger but on the order of magnitude of most “miles” to include the US statute mile.

I’ve banged on about this at length before. I prefer woodworking in inches because I have to divide by 3 and 4 a lot more often than divide by 5. It turns out that the fractional inch system evolved alongside woodworking for a very long time and it solves a lot of the problems woodworkers actually face…as long as you’re not a European scraping in the dirt for something to feel superior about.

The first time I ever took a non-pressurized aircraft to 10,000 feet was an interesting experience. I noticed myself breathing…not heavier, that feels like the wrong word, because I had the opposite problem to “heavy.” I needed to breathe noticeably deeper and faster just sitting still at the controls of the plane doing maybe slightly more work than typing this sentence. Somebody from a lower area going up to Denver (about half the altitude I flew to that day) to play a sport has an elevated chance of Not A Good Day.

There’s nothing funny about this. And yet I’m laughing at it a lot. Like, there isn’t a constructed joke here. The headless but not faceless cat shaped object is ridiculous. But it was already ridiculous in the original post. I need to analyze this with a team of scientists.

- Comment on DIY restaurant 1 week ago:
I’ve always seen “fried egg” refer specifically to an egg cracked directly into a hot pan with the intent of keeping the yolk intact. “How do you like your eggs?” “Fried.” means not scrambled. You might be more specific and specified a “doneness” from sunny side up to over-hard.
- Comment on DIY restaurant 1 week ago:
As opposed to scrambled.
A lot of restaurants won’t do over easy eggs anymore for food safety reasons.

Desktop computers are the one and only one space where Linux doesn’t utterly dominate as the kernel of choice. Supercomputers, servers, embedded devices, basically all Linux. In the mobile space, Apple and Android are a duopoly, Microsoft repeatedly tried and failed to enter that market. Microsoft managed to secure a de facto monopoly on the desktop, kept Macintosh like a pet to ward off actual monopoly lawsuits, and has spent the last 20 years just making their product worse for the user in order to wring another pint of blood out of the same moldy old turnip.

You know, somehow I’m convinced his last 66 hours really sucked. I think I’m going to remain convinced of that.
Also, in the comment you replied to, I wasn’t referring to the Sarov video or the several stories like it. An orphaned source is some amount of radioactive material that has been misplaced or abandoned by those that should have been responsible for it. Tragedy strikes when innocent people stumble across it and are then injured or killed. The Goiânia incident is a particularly gut wrenching story.

Going to warn you, a couple of the orphaned source stories are…not wonderful.
