            @geniusmusing They only restrict consumer-facing uses, while the farm industry continues to use around 90% of #California’s water and industrial uses take 8-9%.

            The water industry has known for decades that our estimates of “normal” are based on a particular high-precipitation period, and that desalinization is the only way to sustain the current usage levels and population.

            Accuweather says that Mercury and Jupiter will have a conjunction (when they appear close together from the earth) tomorrow morning (Friday, 2021-03-05), about an hour before sunrise.

            I am not planning to try to see it.

                The weird thing is that @corbin’s microphone goes weird after a certain amount of time, so generally when I’m watching those casts, it generally ends with Corbin needing to leave. But I think he uses the same one when he’s streaming games, where I haven’t heard the same things happening.

              Also, sonTwo’s $EMPLOYER called him back to work. It’ll be good to have something besides unemployment insurance benefits, with all their requirements (and the additional anti-fraud hurdles that states are erecting because of the magnitude of fraudulent payouts).

                    I haven't heard Daddy_A mentioning #Cyberpunk_2077 in a while. I don't know if that means the game lacks staying power or perhaps he's just trying not to overload us with his discussion.

                    But also, from the way he described the game, it isn't so much Eastern European jankiness as it is "only runs well on the newest hardware". I've never seen it except for watching someone stream it one day.

                        This is why it is critical the internet become decentralized and peer to peer for practically everything. It needs it sooner rather than later, before terrorist organizations can get their stupid oppressive laws passed.

                                  I retrieved some cans of Diet Coke from home when I went to pick up my tax info. I opened one a couple of evenings ago. Flavorless!

                                  Turns out they had expired late in 2020, so I just poured the contents down the drain.
