"putting the hot and the cold and the wet so close together"
But this is the essence of "the kitchen"
and maybe also the bathroom...

BREAKING: Senate unanimously passes bill to release Epstein files, sending it to Trump's desk to sign.no one told him?

Apartment Design Chronicles (Continued)I don't know where to install this. That's the problem. I guess it could just sit on a table and I could find a table to go where the stove is?
I don't want to tear out my counters and cabinets. The ones we have are great. They are 80 years old and very charming.

@benh @futurebird ...Of course you can't take the water right from the cold fast running brook. You must bring it down from the mountain in a clay jar, let it rest for 3 days in the shade under a cloth, then bring the jar back up the mountain so you can sit by the brook (in sympathy with the source) and cook it over your clay stove.
Otherwise? Are you even drinking tea?
(I would have been SO GOOD at being an independently wealthy scholar who lived in the mountains and wrote about tea.)

@benh @futurebird ..."who the fuck coffee'd a kettle?!"
Someone wise enough not to let me find out who they were.
Every place I've worked has had a kettle and EVERY single one made coffee flavored water unacceptable for tea.
This is why I hide a kettle under my desk.
Hotel kettles? About half of the time they have been touched by coffee. I don't know what people are doing. Heating it up again maybe?

Well before I saw this ...I know the notion of boiling a frog is a myth.
But.
This is boiled frogs. If people could only see how bad it's gotten they would recoil in horror.

Apartment Design Chronicles (Continued)Big fridge makes sense if going to buy food is a journey, or if you need to buy in bulk. But in NYC? Why would I store frozen meals in my house when I can store them downstairs at the grocery store and go get one if I'm hungry?
And never need to thrown them out if I forgot about them.

Apartment Design Chronicles (Continued)I have a toaster oven that does EVERYTHING I'd want an oven to do. I have not used the thing for two years.

Apartment Design Chronicles (Continued)Thank you for making me feel a little less freaky. Part of me thinks "it's not that complex, ordinary solutions should be fine" but
I don't think that's really true if I'm honest.

Well before I saw this ...Same. Let's start a gang.

RE: https://sauropods.win/@futurebird/115572250479334748I don't know will people want to waste time with the test because of this?

Here is a little taste from the story.Here is a little taste from the story.
"Was it really necessary to render every single human life in all of this detail, all of the time? So many of the thoughts in the computation-heavy human minds had almost zero impact on the physics of the universe."
I've been feeling shy about tackling the SF topics in the story head on, but I've found an angle to have some fun with it.

Well before I saw this ...I don't see ads very often. So when I do I'm kind of astonished.
