So anyways one inch tungsten cubes are bullshit. 25 mm, that would be fine, or 20 or even 30 mm. Sensible sizes for a cube of tungsten. But a one inch, that’s bullshit.
Compromise on a 25.4 mm cube?
Bullshit measured in metric units is still bullshit.

me when I hear my family making big Christmas plans that ignore the state’s mandate that says no more than 10 people in a space
Somehow I don’t think your heart is going to grow three sizes if you see them gather with a large group of people to all sing together.
I’m trying to plan tomorrow’s grocery trip around the possibility that I will not dare to go back for quite some time. And if I *do* go on the 22nd, it will be planned likewise: December 22nd being of tolerable risk does not at all mean January 5th will be.
(I guess if January turns out terribly we might be able to drive out to one of the expensive grocery stores that offers curbside pickup. I still have all of my CERB money (if only just), and they gave it to me for a reason.)

Apparently some people claim it’s actually “big lake” (or the more influenced-by-the-English-name-for-the-region translation “great lake”), and I seem to have misremembered *which* Iroquoian language it was, but everyone seems to be in agreement that it’s about impressive lakes. Because unlike the Cucamonga Desert, we have us some goddamn lakes.
(I guess that means there’s a little bit of Hillhillhill Hill going on with Lake Ontario, but anyway.)
Interesting!
I’m very pro hillhillhill Hill style names, and adopting foreign language synonyms to refer to a specific variant (like chai tea or kimonos in english).
however I’m down on calling arbitrary kitchen equipment french.
>>I’m very pro hillhillhill Hill style names
It sure beats naming everything Stratford all the time [link].
And yeah, there is a certain elegance in solutions like “using the Persian word for bread to mean ‘bread made in the Persian manner’”.

In my old house it was bottom right… but my apartment now it’s bottom left because of the layout of my kitchen for some reason. Idk why it changed for me, but the bottom right just doesn’t feel right now.
bottom left because it’s the one that changes size so I never have to change any of my habits for cooking different things
Bottom-right is clearly the best burner, because you don’t have to reach as far and the larger burner size heats the pot more evenly. Bottom-left is okay for boiling pasta and stuff like that, but I’ve *tried* making popcorn on the bottom-left burner and it *doesn’t cook right* because that burner is too small.
(results not applicable to stove designs in which the burners are not of different sizes, or designs where the sizes have a different pattern; possibly also not applicable to people significantly taller than 5′3″ or equivalently shorter stoves)
