@feonixrift@clacke I generally use stainless for boiling and non-stick for frying. If something does stick badly to the stainless, out comes the caustic soda.
@feonixrift@clacke I like stainless steel for cooking things not prone to sticking. Mine have a thick base of something or other encased in stainless steel. There is a visible seam, but after 20 years or so there is still no sign of leakage. I also like that they can be safely cleaned using harsh chemicals if necessary.
@az It's disturbingly common to see American power sockets in scenes supposedly taking place in Europe. Less obvious is when they use typefaces that didn't exist at the time the story is set.
@emily Makes sense. A former workmate of mine used to do a sudoku at lunchtime every day. One day, he wrote a solver. I don't think he ever touched one again after that. Having written the program spoiled the fun of doing it manually.
@clacke Both of those variants could plausibly be translations of the same phrase in French or whatever. The Star Trek one has a better ring to it, though, which is probably why it's repeated more often.
@clacke Even closed captions sometimes differ from the words spoken in the same language. It's often due to space constraints, but sometimes they use a different word for no apparent reason.
