So there's this Japanese sushi chef YouTuber that Katy and I have been watching. He does all kinds of recipes, but he keeps using this one ingredient I'm unfamiliar with. He calls it "salad oil". Is that a mistranslation of vegetable oil, or is this something else I'm just unaware of?

Kevin Davy reshared this.

It's any unnamed vegetable oil that you would use to make a salad dressing; the key characteristic is that it doesn't have much flavor. It's often sold as a mix of whatever's reasonably cheap: soybean, canola, peanut, and in some cases, cottonseed.

You can substitute whatever you like, especially if you think the recipe would improve with avocado or olive oil.

Candles! I appreciate the irony but at least you still have options.

Brought home a box of groceries. On my in the front door, the bottom of the box gave out and everything hit the floor. Amazingly, every single egg survived the fall.

I will concede that ebooks are convenient, but when it comes to a good novel, nothing tops the experience of an actual paper book for me.

Bank machines have business hours now? How is that a thing?

Are the machines that are replacing us demanding better working conditions now? πŸ™ƒ

I seem to have allowed myself to run out of CR2032s. Ah well, If I don't test my blood glucose that means it's fine, right?

Katy: Did you look in the cabinet under your night stand?
Me: Yes. They're absolutely not there.
Katy: Found some.
Me: Where were they?
Katy: In the cabinet under your night stand.

@Kevin Davy I'm pretty sure they're shot. I've been neglecting it for a while (equal parts lack of funds and lack of spoons).

Already working on a contingency plan. If need be, we can lean on family for help. I just hate doing that because I know things are tight for them too.

Walking into a fast food restaurant and placing an order is a fun thing to do while wearing a heart monitor.

@Shae Erisson It's a thing my doctor's been keeping an eye on for a while now. My heart rate will occasionally just spike for no apparent reason. I'm told it's "an electrical issue, not a plumbing issue" which is apparently far less serious.

At present, it's nothing more than a nuisance. I'm wearing the monitor for now to see of they can actually catch it happening to better diagnose, but in general, it doesn't affect my day-to-day.

I've encountered an interesting bug in the @Nextcloud πŸ“±β˜οΈπŸ’» client found in the F-Droid store. Whenever I use it to create a folder, the folder name is converted to lower case for some reason. I can fix this after the fact by renaming, but it's annoying (and kind of weird).

You probably don't need to be able to read #teeline to tell which item on my to-do list was cleaning (and re-inking) my #FountainPens.
My to-do list. All the entries are written in teeline (which looks like squiggles). All of the ink is Diamine Steel Blue except for one check mark which is in Diamine Wild Strawberry.

There's also a lesson in there somewhere about how metadata can leak sensitive information. (note: teeline is not cryptographically secure πŸ™ƒ)

Any time I create an account where the password policy forbids a certain class of character I know I might as well just hand my PII over to the data brokers directly.

@Matthew Skala If they're properly storing password data, it shouldn't matter. If it does matter, they're doing something very wrong.

Well, I've finally reached the point where I have to stop putting off getting new glasses.

Picked out new frames that are rather different from anything I've worn historically, and I can't believe how stupidly much I love them.

Sadly, it's going to take a couple weeks before they're ready, so I have to keep wearing my boring old glasses for a while.
