In other news, I finally managed to replace the hideous modern IKEA lamp in my lab that was left by the previous tenants with something more period correct (a ceiling lamp that I’ve owned since some time in the early nineties). It’s showing some signs of wear from long term use in previous apartments I lived in (plus some yellowing that I didn’t bother to remove) and I love it. Lamp nostalgia. 😅
@janbeta
Wouldn't a fluorescent tube complete with mercury be even more period correct?
@bornach That’s true, especially for a lab environment. But I (thankfully) don’t have any of those laying around anymore. 😅
