coming back after 11 months, is the pinned storage table still current

for the archive power cut with the door shut for a few hours is fine. a full fridge holds temperature surprisingly well, still working it out

half_life_hal 11:25

slightly off topic but do i need to worry about light exposure or is that overthinking

my fridge is running at 5.6, is that out of range

appetite_back 11:28

a few hours at room temperature is almost certainly nothing. a week is a different conversation

Recon calculator: 2mg in 5ml = 5mg/ml.

for flying, hand luggage every time. the hold is not temperature controlled the way people assume

appetite_back door shelf or back of the fridge

hydrate_hana 11:48

do you log the fridge temperature or is that too far

the door swings four or five degrees every time somebody opens it. the back barely moves

VialBotbot12:01

Reminder set. I will post here in 7 days.

does the fridge in a hotel room count as a fridge

is a five pound fridge thermometer actually worth it

coming back to this hotel minibars are frequently not cold enough. i take a thermometer, which is ridiculous and also correct

🎉7

buy a thermometer. mine reads 7.4 on the door and two degrees lower at the back
