This seems….wrong.
They will push it closer and closer to what it is, denying the whole time.
This may not be safe for viewing at work.

Black-and-white instructional illustration labeled “3.” A person lies on their back beneath a showerhead, lifting their legs over their torso so water sprays the lower abdomen, pelvic area, groin, and inner thighs. Below the drawing is text instructing the reader to shower the lower abdomen, thighs, pelvic region, back, rectum, lower back, groins, and insides of the legs thoroughly. The image appears to be from an older health or hygiene manual.
I am Jack's overstretched hamstring.

Sign urging people not to plant bamboo near data centers because it’s so invasive. Sure would be a shame.
Japanese Knotweed is another plant that you really should not plant near data centers.
@dphiffer good tip! Folks, feel free to add warnings + regions where they are most disruptive to the local habitat.
Willows & cottonwoods shouldn't be planted either, as their roots can severely destroy water lines and will travel 20-25 feet looking for water. Especially near data centers that promised not to take water out of the ravaged Colorado River but now are suing to do so.
Also when stressed they send up even more trees so they're devilishy hard to remove. Look for any trees/plants in the poplar and salix genera for natives in your area to avoid these characteristics.
(Please, nobody plant Japanese Knotweed *anywhere* — it will be there far longer than the data center, killing local plants and spreading like a disease.)

The Ogden River used to enter Great Salt Lake in West Weber, Utah. The lake is virtually gone now with scheming legislators discussing drying up, the North arm of the lake, to facilitate a giant water guzzling data center, while Utah is in drought emergency, recently declared by Spencer Cox, the governor of Utah.

This is sooooo good
YES
Somewhat related, the 2nd best concert at Red Rocks I've been to (so far) has been R&G! It was so amazing and they fit the venue sooooooooo perfectly.

This is wonderful
I like reminding people that this song has wonderful lyrics. Look up the Carmen McRae version.

I’ve seen them a couple times at the Hollywood Bowl. Absolutely magical talent aided by what must be nonstop hard work. Their cover of Pink Floyd’s “Echoes” is a stunner.
@williwaw I saw them at the Sandy Amphitheater in Utah a couple of years ago. It's no Red Rocks, but still pretty amazing!
@owl Thank you! Did not know and it is excellent.

I discovered yesterday that the Communist activist and labor organizer Beatrice Lumpkin passed away earlier this month at the age of 107. Her first labor activities were in *1933* at the age of *14* (not as a school project or something; it was the Depression and she was working in a radio tube factory); her mother had been a Triangle Shirtwaist Factory worker and she soon began working for the Laundry Workers Industrial Union and the CIO.
Having moved with her second husband, a steelworker and union organizer, to Gary, Indiana, in the 1950s, she had been a resident of Chicago for almost 65 years and was on the faculty at Chicago's Malcolm X College (where she was a longtime member of the Chicago Teacher's Union). Her autobiography, "Joy in the Struggle: My Life and Love", was published in 2012. A truly remarkable life. See https://medium.com/eldeadli... and https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki....
Rest in power.

Breakfast
A trip out today to my local cafe for lunch (or breakfast?…)
Needs blood sausage, but otherwise.. perfection!
I really like how the beans are not on the plate, but I'm an American and my opinion does not matter in the slightest!
This is a great shot it looks like an 80's product photograph (albeit I guess the subject matter would be different).
What is the dark matter between the tomatoes and the bangers?
@0y3ahSansAcut3 funghi!
This looks fabulous!
Would eat, as long as it was hot.
Keep the grease moving!
More hash brown, please.

Late afternoon in a city. The sky and surrounding environment are golden yellow, with tinges of blue. In the background are a few blue skyscrapers. A person with a traffic light for a head stands on a curb next to a round blue sign with a bus icon on it. The person is wearing a dark coat. The orange bulb on the person's traffic light face is lit. Next to the person is a small paper shopping bag. The painting is signed "Chris Silverman".

Color snapshot of a man wearing shorts, a basketball jersey, and a baseball cap seated in a crowded New York street scene at night. He's in front of a well-illuminated old-fashioned Singer sewing machine table, looking at his phone.

"Last image from tonight (short film in the morning): this brother out here with his Singer sewing machine, gifting people a custom embroidery on their jerseys and hats with the name and the date, was more artistic than anything at Burning Man and as gorgeous as a Caravaggio."
Vogue did an interview with him: https://www.vogue.com/article... and this is his website: https://www.tattoodcloth.com; his embroidery machine is, he says, 104 years old.

Amazing detail as a Falcon leaves Earth from Florida. We can see the rocket exhaust turbulence and shape, and even sunspots.

"...but I don't think we can say we know they're wrong."
Ha ha ha. Sure we can. Absolutely. No doubts in my mind whatsoever. This is the suckeriest of sucker bets ever.

oh, I for sure know they are wrong. the math behind LLMs cannot ever develop in to "intelligence"
in the meantime, they are spending way too much of the world's resources to get to a point where they realise it doesn't work enough to carry on.

A green bicycle leans against a log at the edge of a calm body of water.
I blew the winter dust off the steed yesterday evening and rode up to the top of Peters Dam on Kent Lake, in the Marin Municipal Water District land behind Mt. Tamalpias. It felt nice to work some different muscles.
Nice Rivendell!
Oh Marin!
That's an intrigueing bicycle for sure. And beautiful surroundings
@wjcstp @joost It's an Appaloosa; I got it back in 2023!
@niicholas I love their bikes, i had a Redwood for a few years, and i'm periodically tempted to get another one (currently the Roaduno)
Always wanted a Rivendell, but the money and opportunity never coincided. Also my Kogswell fit me so right it was hard to want to replace it.
Had a line on a Heron once, which iirc Peterson had some design involvement with (might be confused on that), but the seller only had a couple frames left and I only had about ten minutes to decide, and passed.

illusion of an enormous serpent of sand that stretches out behind its head - which is the head of a dark haired woman with lipstick on. She has been buried and the sand smoothed over her body so that only her head shows. the illusion is quite credible.
actually I’ll be marching with VamoLá and Bloco Pacífico in the Fremont Solstice Parade on Saturday, so maybe this is Sunday …
