Lol, we wanted to use it, there just wasnt anything in our normal dinner routine that called for basil. It was pretty low maintenance so I was happy to keep it as a houseplant. Now the tomato plants...theyre finicky (and thirsty) so I have to keep an eye on them. Im also think theres a nearby drey and Im worried the squirrels will get to them before I can.

Thats reminds me! Ive discovered four little tomato bulbs blooming on my Beefsteak tomato plants so far. w00t! My basil plant got so big, and we never harvested a single leaf, that my wife gave it to a coworker. Had to be 18" tall and started to flower on the top.

Feds Say Facial Recognition IDed Bosnian War Criminal Miljkovic (gizmodo.com) This technology should be deployed everywhere except private property. But it will probably have an unintended side effect of increasing the US prison populations.

Random video game news... the critical eyes have it
My gaming PC died a few years ago and I cant justify buying a new one just to play games. I use my work laptop for browsing and stuff and all my gaming nowadays is on mobile. But jeez, theyre still $600 bucks (2022 Newest Xbox-Series X 1TB SSD Video Gaming Console with One Wireless Controller, 16GB GDDR6 RAM, 8X_Cores Zen 2 CPU, RDNA 2 GPU, LPT Ultra High Speed HDMI Cable - Walmart.com), plus D4 ($70), plus Starfield ($100).

UFD = Universal Free Drugs. Our prisons are bursting at the seams trying to punish drug offenses. As we know, any mental flaw is not the fault of the victim, it was probably foisted on them by a combination of genetics and the hard scrabble of the US societal structure making it too difficult for them to exist in an unaltered state. Imo, drugs (or any addiction) are a disease of the mind and should be legalized and provided to users at no charge. Just like we should be doing with all medicines and procedures. BOOM! Huge decrease in the prison population. Hahahaha, suck it China and Iran.

Hmm, if it gets good reviews it may force my hand into buying an XBox so I can play it. D4 has already got me thinking about it too.

We cant be a tier 1 country until we forcibly redistribute the fatcats wealth into social programs for everyone. What if Im wrong? Im not. We already have irrefutable proof that those systems work and create a nirvana-like lifestyle for everyone else in the world. Additionally, once we create UFD, our prisons will empty out. So that should drop our prison population below that of China and Iran. Maybe they should just let me run the country? Give me a decade and Ill whip this joint into shape.

Bezos has possessed a master key for my life for years, that poor bastage. But in the "first world problems" category, we sleep with the tv on just for background noise, and the extra light coming from the huge screen is a little distracting when were trying to fall asleep. And one of my cats is a little spooked by new screen on the wall. She keeps staring at it warily.

Ukraine Conflict - The object of war is not to die for your country but to make the other bastard die for his
^We need to be prepared for potential nazi invasion. Theyre literally everywhere. Interesting (to me), we only lost a total of 20 Bradleys (17 to friendly fire!) in the entire Gulf war (Bradley Fighting Vehicle - Wikipedia), and here theve lost 16 in a couple of days. Guess it shows the difference in tactics and training.

I talked my wife off the ledge with the painting and we hung that bad boy yesterday. w00t! We had to rearrange the entire bedroom to accommodate the position of the tv but its freaking glorious. We got this one on sale for $398.00: Philips 65" Class 4K Ultra HD (2160p) Android Smart LED TV with Google Assistant (65PFL5766/F7) - Walmart.com. Interestingly, the tv wall mount was delivered the same day I ordered it so we must have an Amazon warehouse nearby. Also, I can turn it on/off by talking to my Google hub so now I dont have to press the power button like a caveman.- What You've Done Today - Don't do today, what you can get someone else to do tomorrow

Dont you dare give me hope. I dont have a gaming PC anymore and I was wondering if my work laptop could handle D4. For minimum settings I think I have the CPU (i5-8250U) and RAM (16GB) covered, but I think the on board video card wont cut it (UHD Graphics 620). What do you think?- secure
