The cherry tomato seeds arrived today. I ordered 200 but there’s only 50 in the package. I don’t mind it because it cost me 0.80 Euros shipping included. I’ll search on a search engine to see how the seeds can be germinated and plant them in a very large flower pot.
Almost 20 hours ago The Burning Crusade Classic was launched and Twitch streamers were measuring who could piss the farthest. Today at 4 PM, my favorite WoW streamer reached level 70.
I never tried to grow vegetables, but when I was a child I planted a piece of potato and a small onion, and both grew full plants but the potato was in a small pot and barely made any new potatoes. I remember the onion plant was unexpectedly pretty (or was the potato?). As for tomatoes, they’re a lost cause on me: I am food intolerant to raw tomato and it makes me puke. I can eat cooked tomato, specially deep fried tomato, but not raw tomato… I discovered it accidentally when I was in school, I shared a bite of sandwich with a buddy and his sandwich had tomato spread on the bread and a few minutes after swallowing I felt a strong nausea and barely could keep it inside…
By being unable to eat raw tomato, I am at odds with some staple dishes of Spanish cuisine… i’m such a poor food patriot!
And now I’m off to bed. Yesterday my parents where shifting Internet companies and we’ve been without service until this afternoon… nighties lovelies!
Also: sending an Apple Airtag by mail, because…
…because. Guess that most mail systems work like this, with mail being taken to central locations to classify it and then send it to a distribution center from which it reaches the destination.
Not at all… not the less because I hate getting messy.
But then, it all started as a fight among bored friends with a few boxes of spoiled tomatoes. No they still use tomatoes too past their ripe and the rules mean to squish the tomatoes before throwing them. Now, as to how to get all that tomato goo out of people and the streets (and the truck…), that’s another story.
Aaand, I’m off tob ed. tomorrow I go to work (but not actually work since the whole travel thing is very, veeery slow yet). So I’ll spend my saturday morning pretending to work while I surf internet on my work computer while my boss pretends to not notice I’m just passing time. Thrilling plan, huh?
No plans about actually surviving on the surface (one of the missions will drop a sensors ball and the other it’s an orbiter). As for the travel there, legendary Spanish pop band Mecano already went there on a boat…
(It’s the story but a drug addict who pretends that everything it’s OK while he runs away in his mind, sailing to Venus on a boat)
Stop it, you know you’ve never gone to Venus on a boat… you want to float and yet you just sink
Huh… I sense a serious maintenace issue, specially if that bird poo is corrosive…
Time to go to sleep… nighties lovelies!
Also: this is from 1982…
Vidoes with repeating patterns are relatively easy to do with help from computers and layering… but as far back as 1981-82, the same thing could be done by just filming, printing, cutting away the print, putting in frame and take a step frame. Then another frame. And another, thus animating all the different objects (cutaway prints) in a single frame…
…so is the life of inependent studios. Each game is a gamble as it’s the only game, and if it goes wrong, it’s a very serious situation. Now they don’t have neither big money from a big game nor a reputation to seel more games on, and since their latest game is not selling then their income is thinning. With everything that went wrong, CD Projekt Red has lost the bet on Cyberpunk 2077. So what is left now?
And for me, it’s time to go to bed. Nighties lovelies!
Also: Jeff Bezos will go on New Shepard’s fisrt manned flight to space. And will bring his brother with him.
Now this is a thing I am in no risk of ever happening to me… I’ve got even fewer chances of it than of becoming a millionaire.
