    Do you want some discouragement?

    Stainless steel is stains less not rusts never. You would need additional measures to keep the stand from degrading over thousands of years. Your local archeology department could give you some pointers on how to accomplish that.

    Or maybe you design the stand in such a way that the tungsten object is held firmly, but still easily visible in rusty stainless jaws.



  • I notice changes in sensory processing first. Reading becomes difficult and my eyes lose focus easily/take a long time to focus. I also notice a difference in my thought patterns. My thoughts start to kind of skip around. It becomes hard to concentrate on any single thing, but not in a distracted kind of way. I very much realize that this description is vague and probably doesn’t make sense unless you experience similar migraines. I do also experience visual auras, but those aren’t apparent until the migraine is about to become very painful.

    A full blown migraine manifests as sensory processing mapping to pain. Light and sound are unbearable even in relatively moderate amounts. One of the worst migraines I had led to the pressure of my head on the pillow making every hair follicle feel like a a needle poking my scalp. You don’t realize how much your brain autonomously filters out tons of sensory input to keep your focus on a very small slice of interest until the filters break down and let everything through.

    Over the counter pain pills do nothing for my migraines. Sensory deprivation and sleep are the only things that can actually stop a migraine for me. I have blackout blinds, a well fitting eye mask, and foam earplugs ready to go. Early detection is very important. If I act as soon as I notice the warning signs, I can usually avoid a full blown migriane. A large glass of water + darkness and silence will usually have me back up in less than an hour. If a migraine gets to the point of pain, I will need sleep to get rid of it and will still feel rather off afterwards. Also falling asleep with a brutal migraine is no easy feat. A catch-22 so to say.

    Radioactive decay is not the only way to make lead, and lead is produced in much greater abundance than uranium.

    The part that’s missing in the post is in looking specifically at uranium deposits and making assumptions about the initial composition of the deposits, since the crystalline structure excludes lead when the crystals form. So if you detect lead contained within zircon, it is assumed to be the product of radioactive decay.

    Similar to your third option, cut kielbasa into ⅓" slices. Brown in generous amounts of butter. Remove from pan and brown a similar volume lf sweet onions. Add in sliced cabbage about half way through and adjust your heat to keep everything browning. Stir as needed, but not continuously; leave stuff still long enough to sear, but not burn. Get the egg noodles going. When the cabbage has cooked down enough to be tender add the kielbasa back in and turn down the heat. Season with salt and peper, and a couple splashes lf balsamic vinegar. Be conservative with the balsamic, but it will really make the seared kielbasa pop if you get it right. Then serve with the wide egg noodles when they finish cooking. The wide egg noodles should look more like a wide fettucini, not the short curly noodles that many stores carry.




  • It’s all in whether management lets the engineers make a good product or pushes for cost reduction above all else. American made Toyotas are just fine.

    A similar thing is true with Chinese made goods. Companies that care enough to implement proper process and quality controls can have perfectly adequate quality come out of Chinese factories. It’s just that the companies that were quickest to export production cared more about minimizing every last cost than about quality.

    Heating them together is usually fine in my experience, but storing them separately is a must. The pasta robs moisture form everything else, getting mushy and leaving the sauce dry.

    If you really want one container to bring leftovers to work, put the sauce on the bottom add a layer of cheese, then put the pasta on top. Don’t mix everything until it is warm. You can get surprisingly ok results this way.
