Moon landing

While it doesn’t contradict what you’re saying, apparently ”the provisions of his parole required him to surrender any electronic devices and passcodes." Wtf

I thought the original post was satire - list all of the privacy issues, then throw in “Privacy <3” at the end. Seriously, almost every one of those points has a potential privacy issue.

Guess I was being too generous.

Ale 8 One

Somewhere between ginger ale and Mountain Dew, and caffeinated.

How do you transfer the food from the cutting board to the measuring cup?

You keep saying that, but it’s not an extra step. Weighing the food is in place of the volume measurement, not in addition.

Using volume measurement: start cutting broccoli. Add to a measuring cup until you get the right amount.

Using weight measurement: cut broccoli. Add to scale until you have the right amount (actually I would usually weigh out a single large piece, then chop it all at once - same amount of effort).

Or you place your bowl etc. on the scale and tare after each addition. Doesn’t work in all situations (e.g. pan on the stove) but is great for baking.

If your cup measurements are not the same you need new measuring cups.

In the US, sticks of butter have tablespoon measurements printed on the label, like this: https://www.errenskitchen.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/02/butter-sticks.jpg

Most people leave the sticks of butter in the fridge with the wrappers on. If you want X tablespoons of butter, you cut through the wrapper and butter at the right mark.

I’m not saying it’s an ideal system (I also prefer recipes that use weights) but it works.

Just a small note: the pressures in this chart are absolute, not gauge. In everyday usage (like talking about tire pressure) we mean gauge pressure - that is, the difference in pressure from atmospheric pressure.

Your overall point is well taken (the change in temperature doesn’t matter much), but the numbers will be slightly different. For example, a tire filled to 100 psig (gauge) will reach 106.496 psig at 100 deg F, versus 105.663 in the original chart (assuming 14.7 psia atmospheric pressure).

Good on you for including a written description of the image but… “picture of the actor Tony Stark”?

Edit: or are these descriptions automatically generated?

Even better, here’s a direct link to a NASA page discussing the data: https://earthobservatory.nasa.gov/images/150192/tracking-30-years-of-sea-level-rise

Some quotes from the page:

Scientists have found that global mean sea level—shown in the line plot above and below—has risen 10.1 centimeters (3.98 inches) since 1992. Over the past 140 years, satellites and tide gauges together show that global sea level has risen 21 to 24 centimeters (8 to 9 inches).

“With 30 years of data, we can finally see what a huge impact we have on the Earth’s climate,” said Josh Willis, an oceanographer at the Jet Propulsion Laboratory and NASA’s project scientist for Sentinel-6 Michael Freilich. “The rise of sea level caused by human interference with the climate now dwarfs the natural cycles. And it is happening faster and faster every decade.”

The altimetry data also show that the rate of sea level rise is accelerating. Over the course of the 20th century, global mean sea level rose at about 1.5 millimeters per year. By the early 1990s, it was about 2.5 mm per year. Over the past decade, the rate has increased to 3.9 mm (0.15 inches) per year.

While a few millimeters of sea level rise per year may seem small, scientists estimate that every 2.5 centimeters (1 inch) of sea level rise translates into 2.5 meters (8.5 feet) of beachfront lost along the average coast. It also means that high tides and storm surges can rise even higher, bringing more coastal flooding, even on sunny days. In a report issued in February 2022, U.S. scientists concluded that by 2050 sea level along U.S. coastlines could rise between 25 to 30 centimeters (10 to 12 inches) above today’s levels.

There are different sizes - the smaller ones are not hard to do in a sitting. For the larger ones, I find myself working on one area at a time, then putting it down and working on another area later. It’s not too bad - almost like a jigsaw puzzle.

Sorry about your dad. Not what you asked for, but if she likes Sukoku your step-mum might like nonograms (“Japanese crossword”). Different strategies than Sukoku but it feels like I’m using the same part of my brain and you make a picture in the end. Lots of free ones of varying difficulties here: https://www.nonograms.org/

Edit: I just found out about Libredirect from this post - seems like functionally the same thing I’m using Redirector for, but with rules built in.
