Ian Bruce 伊恩·布鲁斯 @ianabruce.bsky.social · 05/10/2026Buried? Such a waste. My AI says that thermal depolymerization can break down complex organic waste into simpler hydrocarbon fractions, which can be refined or functionalized into useful industrial lubricants for killbots and hunter-seeker drones. We go public next month. 010
Ian Bruce 伊恩·布鲁斯 @ianabruce.bsky.social · 05/10/2026Don't knock his acting style. Marjoe Gortner had an incredible range — from wooden, all the way to 5-alarm insaneo-rama. Sure, there was almost nothing in between, but that really helped to get the story over with — which, for most of his movies, was greatly appreciated. 010

Ian Bruce 伊恩·布鲁斯 @ianabruce.bsky.social · 19/08/2026Fantastic mission patch. 🚀 FYI: Chang'e 7 is a robotic lunar exploration mission targeting the Moon’s south pole to search for water ice and and other resource availability. China's had an exceptional track record with its robotic space missions, and I expect this will be no different. 祝你一切顺利,好运! 020
Ian Bruce 伊恩·布鲁斯 @ianabruce.bsky.social · 17/08/2026Obvious FSB super-secret spy car. You're looking at the "SMOKE" feature. "OIL" releases the car's crankcase drain plugs; and NAILS performs a makeshift pedicure using the car's lighter plug. I don't recommend using the M-GUNS since they're pointed at the driver. This IS the former KGB, after all. 030
Ian Bruce 伊恩·布鲁斯 @ianabruce.bsky.social · 14/08/2026A typical watch movement has around 20 to 30 individual gears and pinions inside assemblies such as the gear train, motion works, and winding system. An entire movement has as many as 100 individual components. I imagine this is what flys out the bottom should you accidentally hit the "jackpot". 😉 000

Ian Bruce 伊恩·布鲁斯 @ianabruce.bsky.social · 01/08/2026Oh, great... Now I want one. Seems like it'd be a handy tool for crews in the Expanse universe. I'm guessing its coordinate system is standard ecliptic longitude and latitude? (March equinox = °0). Otherwise, there's no baseline reference. 000

We'd always stopped at the Big Chicken Barn Books and Antiques on our way up to our summer place in Maine. At any given time, they have over 150,000 2nd-hand books in stock. That one place took care of most of our summer reading. 😆 020
