Pretty sure the only controversial opinion along these lines is 'video games should be shorter and emphasize quality over quantity'.
― pomenitul, Monday, 15 April 2019 14:10 (four years ago) link
Jazz albums should be 5-6 tracks/40-45 minutes.Autechre would be better if their albums were only 45 minutes long, and I say that as someone who bought that 8CD NTS Sessions box and loves it.Books can go as long as 300 pages; after that, you're mostly just jerking off.

OTM on films. Albums should be under 40 minutes or GTFO.

I tend to gravitate to long books. But books worth reading are extreme outliers, and so what's true of 'most' doesn't necessarily apply.
― jmm, Monday, 15 April 2019 14:14 (four years ago) link
I almost put 40 but Violator is my idea of a perfectly timed album and it's 47, couldn't go too far under that.

Ach I hate these hard-rules for running timesBooks films albums can be as long or as short as they need to be but their length (or brevity) should always be justifiedIn general most albums longer than 40 minutes feel too long to me, for sure

― mom tossed in kimchee (quincie), Wednesday, 17 April 2019 02:36 (four years ago) link
xpost Corn has too much post-eating maintenance. I also don't favor sweet vegetables. Or chewing things off something that I am not eating. I do like things made with cornmeal though.

re: pickling, idk if you slice any veg really thin you can probably quick pickle it. it's not like i've tried them all but i'd be open to it as an approach
― call all destroyer, Wednesday, 17 April 2019 03:18 (four years ago) link
I’ve tried pickling a lot of different vegetables and they've pretty much all come out amazing - carrots, red/yellow onions, turnips, unwaxed cucumbers, jalapeños, green beans, okra, beets, bell peppers, cauliflower…
― Dan S, Wednesday, 17 April 2019 03:59 (four years ago) link
Were the pickled jalapeños spicy?
― Mordy, Wednesday, 17 April 2019 04:00 (four years ago) link
tomatoes are great, peaches are better. they also are the only fruit with greater disappointment potential than tomatoes, since great peaches are greater than great tomatoes, and terrible peaches are way more terrible, and also peaches have a higher failure rate.
peaches, people. this post, it grates.

xp the best tomatoes from sun-drenched gardens can't be beat, but I agree that the best peaches are amazing. those sold in supermarkets today seem to be some kind of hybrid with nectarines, without the taste, the juiciness, peach fuzz on the skin, or fruit clinging to the pit
― Dan S, Wednesday, 17 April 2019 04:11 (four years ago) link
the spiciness of jalapeños is tempered by the pickling
― Dan S, Wednesday, 17 April 2019 04:25 (four years ago) link
Peaches are delicious but they've got nothing on apricots.
