Every year that I have to renew my car's registration I'm reminded of @CA_DMV's online security incompetence as I have to MANUALLY type in my bank's routing # and account # to pay my registration. Come on! This is security 101! Forcing me to type adds zero security and annoys!

A fine meal was had.

This was an incredibly interesting video. (@BWJones, this is likely right up your alley and we've discussed jumping spiders previously) youtube.com/watch?v=nfAqTSjM…

Sea cucumber!!!

Mmmmmmmm

House cured mackerel. Fresh abalone. The most tender and buttery tuna belly I’ve had.

Galbitang. Never had it. Utterly delicious. A simple broth over incredibly tender meat on the bone.

Hey @OpenAI . You done busted ChatGPT. What worked yesterday was broken today, requiring an argument to make it mostly work. And image generation is much faster, but not nearly as good of quality. Boo. May have to cancel.

Meteor. South Bay. Just a single fireball.

Sure sign your at a good sushi restaurant? Asked about the uni. “Not good today. Have something else.” That is a chef that knows and respects his product. Uni is remarkably variable and some days, same source from same region, is just not good.

Dinner at surosushi.com. Excellent quality and presentation. – at San Jose, CA

Nigiri.

Mmmm… salmon delight.

Found my new sushi spot.
