none of the more notable things about the gas stove furor have nothing to do with gas stoves, rather it is just the usual theater of any subject collapsing into a is-thing-good-or-bad and scrambling into camps about it. with the camps ideally aligning with existing camps to make it digestible by the viewers. the actual content amounts to "gas stoves turn out to be a bit worse for indoor air quality (and thus your health) than expected", with likely conclusions being that ventilation standards for new construction should be revised accordingly (e: with extra focus on people who may be impacted in their jobs) Cybernetic Vermin fucked around with this message at 15:22 on Jan 20, 2023 |

hard mode question: what’s better, a gas stove displaying only celsius degrees, or an electric stove displaying only fahrenheit?

it reminds me of the end of incandescent bulbs where they started promoting CFLs even though they were complete dog poo poo and worse in every possible way. you can crow about inductive stove tops all you want, but until they massively come down in price they're not really an alternative. in a world where gas stovetops are banned, resistive stovetops will be the norm (for now) and that absolutely is worse for cooking. the good news is the higher cost of inductive stovetops is almost certainly price gouging and theres probably room for adjustment there

The price difference is pretty minor for gas vs induction - e.g. it's about one step on Bosch's SKU tier ladder

i gave my wife huge stinkeye when we bought our stove cause she wasn't comfortable about baking with gas so having dual options (gas top - electric oven) added 2.5 thousand loving dollars or so

I have had induction stoves in a few apartments and they’ve all been pretty good i like the fancy ones that are just a massive square without distinctive positions you can sorta place your pots anywhere on and they automatically detect size and position of the pot/pan/whatever

like i really take that concept of worst case scenario process design to heart. it started with bikes. i was couriering at the time and just getting absolutely turbofucked by weather. so i started building out a kit that was weatherproof based on worst scenario experience (getting a flat riding home from work in a snowstorm) and working out from there. waterproof lights, speaker, bag, and everything either is on a carabiner for easy attach points or i slap it on anwyays with bungee cords. once i figured that out i started solving for the bike. i had been favoring fixed gears and skinny road bikes for MAX SPEED around town but having to do lots of repairs and tuning to keep up with it. i realized that i wanted a bike i could be drunk and high in the woods and be fine on, but still be able to zip around town so i started riding cyclocross frames and now i'm on gravel bikes because i can monster truck over both potholes and lovely terrain fire roads and if i drunk hit a curb it doesn't instantly explode a $900 wheel. i just kind of came to a realization that while i am very caring of my items, my general lifestyle is pretty rough and tumble on poo poo, and instead of loving the same poo poo up over and over again, i figured out ways t o design my environment and tools to take poo poo out of the equation so i can go be chaotic shitstorm and get out fine. but for the better part of the last decade i've been on a bike 14 hours a day for vast stretches of the year and there's only so much you can do to protect and waterproof items when you're outdoors like that. like four out of the five times ive been hit by cars, neither my phone or my laptop broke (but many other parts of my body did!) so like. i have to kind of balance babying poo poo with "ride 40 miles in a torrential downpour" and once i started viewing things in that way its made my life so much easier.

the second worst is mine which had the amazing safety feature of automatic shut off when it reaches a certain temperature and until it cools down again, such that you can’t boil or steam anything

the third worst is anything with capacitive buttons and a flush mounted control panel

the fourth worst is when jt has multiple burners per burner and the dials are like setting 1-3 is for the inner ring, 4-6 is the middle, 7-9 is the outer, 10-11 is the middle and inner, 12-13 is inner and outer, etc
