Used two Artemis fly-by photos to compose this stereogram.
It is imperfect because I don't know the exact path of travel of the spacecraft with respect to the images. I did a rotation to somewhat compensate but it's a bit off.

Duplex Byzantine bracelet with a motley of colored o-rings. My last two bracelets of this style used only 8 segments, and were very snug passing over the hand to my wrist.

What would happen to a data center if 1000 EVs plugged into its local grid simultaneously?
"Battery restarts," happen if discharged data center batteries that lost power, suddenly regain power and draw massive power at once, tripping the breaker, causing the generator to restart. Endlessly.

Pretty cool watching California's first solar-over-canal project succeed. Looking forward to more scale on the next go-round — currently two installations totaling less than one-third of a mile. www.fresnobee.com/news/califor...
Turlock district, UC Merced test solar panels on canals. State leaders get a peek
TID got a $20 million state grant to see if the panels could reduce evaporation and boost power supplies.

When do foreign countries begin issuing travel bans against Americans?
We are due. I love international travel but this needs to start.

Someone wanted to contribute to the party so when It happens, they are sure to be allowed to take part. Friggin' cool idea.
Imagine that as a nation-wide trend.

The most hilarious thing about this is you don't have to give it ANY context at all, and everyone still knows what it's for.🤣

Doesn't constitute a threat to kill Doofus Trumpleshitstain. What it might just do is imply a wish, cast somewhere toward the void. A really, really, really sincere wish.

Before upgrading presidential security, the number of assassinated presidents (or politicians) should reach or exceed the number of children dead from school shootings.

Should Democrats win the mid-term in a landslide, they must be compelled to enact universal health care unilaterally.
This should have happened under Obama 1, when Democrats controlled both houses and the presidency. Instead, Democrat politicians demurred.
Post your Bill, Democrat politicians!

Apologies for being quiet lately. I have been affected by a layoff and, after 9 years working at Aether Studios making characters for Rivals of Aether, Dungeons of Aether and Rivals of Aether 2, I will be out of a job starting May 1st. If you need a concept artist or character designer, hit me up.

I'm calling what we get with Google, "Robot Intelligence."
The intelligence is fixed at a set point in development. No new learning goes on so it is not 'artificially' educating itself.There is no intelligence, just sophisticated data analysis and retrieval.

Took the Falcon Pro for a ride up French Joe Canyon. Managed to dump it while crossing big rocks in the sandy bottom of the arroyo. Back near Highway 90, a couple of camp dogs came out to give chase, so I circled around to let the two get a little bit of a workout. A fun time was had by all.
