i miss coffee more than beer, and the coffee is still there, it just does not like me anymore, for what its worth

WZ

strangest place was a hotel minibar, inside a sock. it survived and i am still proud of it

the fridge is called colin and colin has never once let me down, ill dig out the number

*Medutest not the other one

WZ

i checked the milk with the vial thermometer and now i am cross about the milk

WZ

update on the earlier thing it is 4 degrees and horizontal out there, which is at least good weather for a parcel

my money is on nothing shipping and all of us still arguing about it in 2028

we are three years into the standing bet and the goalposts have moved twice

SS

a spreadsheet nobody asked for is my favourite genre of message in this entire archive

CH

follow up the mcg thing has happened four times this year and somebody catches it inside ninety seconds every time, happy to be corrected

Digest for the week of 2024-11-18 has been published.

star mg not mcg. the correction is faster than the mistake at this point

recipe that works in four bites: anything at all on a smaller plate. the plate is the recipe

🙏4

update on the earlier thing somebody will correct the mcg thing before i finish typing this and honestly good

SS

coming back to this does a cat knocking things over count as a cold chain incident

LO

the fridge thermometer has become a personality trait and i am at peace with that

15:46chlorhex pinned a message to this channel
LO

i have the spreadsheet nobody asked for, it has seven tabs, and one of them is called cats

HH

slightly off topic but what do you tell visitors the little thermometer in the fridge is for

update from 10 months ago: the cat is still banned from the counter and still on the counter, ask me again in a month

MP

while im here how hot is it where everyone is, purely for shipping reasons obviously

KF

right so sport went the way sport always goes, which is badly and late

the smugness is the prize. there has never been another prize

KF

i drink fizzy water with a lime in it and pretend, and it is fine, mostly

we absolutely counted the cat incident as a cold chain event and the pinned table has a footnote about it

LO

right so my sharps bin has a name as well and i am not typing it in here
