Two things today:

  1. A coworker is out with Covid. I worked with her last week while she was sneezing & had a runny nose. But I had my N95 on, & was also airing the house out so I did not get sick.
    (Always air out your vacation rental for at least an hour, folks)

🎬 Discovered tonight SFO has a museum that screens short videos/films.

Love "Flight of the Pompadour"—a lighthearted look at the pursuit of cool, and finding your people.

Karan Kandhari directed lead actor Oliver Parsons.

▶️ 7:58 film plays in the post.

Just finished The Road to Little Dribbling by Bill Bryson and am tempted to start a new category for my records: Nonfiction.Memoir.Bitching. If you'd love 400 pages of an old man yelling at clouds, to say nothing of being casually racist, homophobic and transphobic, this is the book for you. Not sure I'll ever be able to enjoy his work again. 😞

    Saturday Night!

    Good: Cleaned all the grunge from my kitchen stove (currently uninstalled and very accessible). Simple Green/Razor Blade/Window Cleaner works wonders.

    Bad: Cleaned all the grunge from my kitchen stove on Saturday Night.

    Also, probably going to replace the thing VERY soon (3-6 months) with an induction oven, it's near the end of its lifespan--no replacement parts, including the igniters and electronics... I think I bought the last remaining one in the world on eBay.

    In the frigid outer solar system, beyond Pluto, dwarf planets appear to be surprisingly dynamic worlds.

    The JWST observatory sees chemical signs of geologic activity on distant dwarf planets Eris and Makemake.

    @ai6yr desert just steady light rain. Mountains blocking most of it. Here, nothing like TS Hilary which massively flooded the whole valley. Good luck to everyone on the West side

    This month on we read ‘Darkness at Noon’ by Arthur Koestler, a tale of human pyschology under duress that makes a fitting conclusion to the Russian books that Bowie included on his reading list.

    We also reveal the order of the last four books (!!!) and talk ask you what else we should add to the list of books that SHOUD HAVE been on Bowie’s list.

    The venerable Voyager 1 spacecraft is experiencing another glitch. Instead of sending science and engg. data, it is sending a 0101 bit pattern.

    The problem has been narrowed down to the flight data system (FDS), which is not communicating properly with the telecom unit (TMU). A reboot did not help.

    Stay tuned as NASA engrs work out a fix for this 1970's era computer, which has performed magnificently during its long 46-year journey to the planets and to outer space.
