Decided on local sushi for lunch. A little place in a nearby plaza named Ichiban sushi. Soft shell crab roll and sea monster roll with a decorative plastic bonsai tree. Good meal as always.
A plain white dinner plate with two sushi rolls on it,  over shadowed by a decorative plastic bonsai tree also located on the plate.

Surprised twice today, once by my testing GPU still working, and once by discovering i've had it for 19 years 😯 I guess that was $300 well spent.

Wanted a burger so headed over to the fine folks at Lackawanna's Steel city pub. Excellent as always with top notch service. Cose the partly enclosed patio since it's 29°C outside

This is so cool! The paper nautilus, or argonaut, is one of the strangest little weirdos in the ocean. I knew how odd they were, but the incredible dedication and meticulous observation it took for Jeanne Villepreux-Power to figure them out is new to me!

Allegations of Iranian Su-35 attacks on US bases are unfounded. Based on the available evidence, the claim that Iranian Su-35s attacked a US base is false. The images circulating as evidence of the attack have been identified as archive footage from a military competition in Russia in 2021. #iran

Hot day of 32°C. An ice cream stand about 3 minutes walking distance from my home. Time to break out the beer coozie to slow the melting of the soft serve.

The old saying was roughly "sci-fi predicts everything possible, so it's going to get things right now and then" I just really wish it wasn't the bad stuff we were warned against that it got right more often than not recently.
