Meter‽ We are more than well acquainted.

‘a meter’

I did this with a remote.

Immediately found the old one the day the new one arrived. In the same place I’d been looking for weeks…

In my house, the tagline is “I put it in a safe place.”

I need a microwave that emits a continuous tone until I empty it…

That was my favorite clay pot!

PS2 textures and skeletons, but way too many polygons.

Yes, though it does not affect the nutritive content or prevent subsequent cultures from taking root, so you can still inoculate irradiated foodstuffs with live ginger bug, yeast, scoby, mother, etc. or open air ferment.

1. We do! Or, at least we are allowed to. I’m mostly aware of it being done with meats.

2. The FDA requires that irradiated foods bear… the statement “Treated with radiation”…

3. The word “radiation” is scary to the general public. It conjures thoughts of glowing rocks and nuclear fallout. It makes folk imagine that their food might be radioactive.

1. It’s a new market. Well… new enough to not be well understood by the general public, or by the contractors getting into it.
2. It’s techy. That that attracts a certain…entrepreneurial personality.
3. The prospective customers are people who can already afford a home.
4. it can be pitched as “it’ll pay for itself”

Yes and no?

Stuff happened in the early 10’s, and the community forked LibreOffice which became the spiritual successor to OOO, while the OO trademark got transferred to Apache.

Is that a pangolin!

What is it good for?

Is there a cucumber nearby?

Those seas in particular? Because they are bounded by narrow straights.

A gulf has a more specific definition. A sea has a very broad one.

A gulf is mostly enveloped (engulfed) by land, but fairly open to its parent waters relative to its size on one side. Like a reverse peninsula.

A sea can be just about any large, salty, body of water that is between bits of land. They can have very finite bounds such as narrow straights and rivers mouths, more porous bounds like an archipelago, or broadly open to the ocean / other seas between islands or other land masses.

The question for me is “why is the Persian Gulf not a sea, but the Adriatic Sea is not a gulf?”

I guess part of it is that language changes over time, these things got named by different people over the millennia before they were well mapped. Some are translations from other languages, some are political decisions.

Old house. Mice are seasonal for us. We get one or two in the fall when they start looking for shelter for the winter, and again in the spring when they start exploring/multiplying. We used traps, Now that we have cats though, they mostly stay away or get caught.

It’s nice to have a fallback pool of long run shows you enjoyed once. Things you can put on until something else catches your fancy. For me there’s ~90’s era Star Trek, Stargate, Parks & Rec… For someone else it might be The Office, Simpsons, Family Guy, South Park, Cheers, etc. There are plenty of 100+ episode anime out there…

There is something similar but not quite. Masa is made from nixtamalized corn, but the process to make fresh masa means pulverizing the moist kernels into a dough. Then, to store for later use, the dough can be dried and ground into a flour: masa harina (literally “dough flour”).
