I bought a set of wok tools and a wooden spatula. I’ve found the metal spatula very useful as the holes allow drainage and it works well for scooping things. The wooden spatula has proven more useful than a standard wooden spoon.

My desire when I was young was for an interactive computer, like HAL from 2001 or MCU Iron Man’s Jarvis/Friday. This is possible now with the various LLMs but I now have no interest whatsoever is such a false “companion”.

Aldi had a big tub of Buona Italian Beef in the freezer section. I'm thinking Italian Beef sandwiches for the Olympic opening ceremony next Friday. Yeah, more Chicago than authentic Italian, but it will be tasty. Need the right bread and some giardiniera.

This is such a cool illustration of how the Mercator map distorts the size of Greenland, which looks as big as the whole continent of Africa on that map but is actually the size of Mexico.

A lot of non-Minnesotans are asking how they can help people in the Twin Cities. Here's a very easy way that will cost you absolutely nothing.

My biggest pet peeve at the gym is people who leave their weights on the bench after finishing their exercise, thus making everyone unsure if they can use it. Clean up after yourself.
