Jelly fish in glass: Victor Harbour, South Australia, from the gift shop near the tram

I like round things *-* they glow in the dark too

 

A few years back, my wife and I were working at/living at a private boarding school, and she was away at a reptile/exotic pet show with some of our students on a weekend outing.  She started texting me that she was bringing home a jellyfish, but she was being very vague about it, which sent me into a slight panic as it seemed plausible from quick research that she was really bringing one back with her.

 

Then she got home and presented a jellyfish like that, with an LED base to stand it on.

 

It was easily one of my dumbest moments

Few days ago I bought steak, now I cooked it

 

Spoiler because Ramadan

  Hide contents

$35 cut, look at them marbling -drools-

 

Resting steak

Pan fried with olive oil, two cloves of garlic, seasoned with salt and pepper, with generous amount of rosemary

A knob of butter for the caramelized nutty crunchy outer layer, and don't forget to render the fat down so it'll melt in your mouth

 

Slice it at an angle, I want it pink on the inside and I got it, yay

knife glides in like butter *-* I knew it's gonna be so tender

 

Presentation

Though I didn't make any side dish because... lazy lul

Taste so good, though

 

Rm10 a piece (can buy 3 loh mai gai per slice of beef, as someone will be calculating)

 

 

Damn my itchy finger man, you clearly said spoiler because of Ramadan. Totally regretting it right now.

Are these not available in Switzerland or why do you have the Indian version?

Well I bought them from Amazon and yes they shipped from India for some reason lol. No they're available here, it's just that they were really cheap on Amazon and I was already doing a big order and you know Online Shopping is so much more convenient then having to hunt them down in a local store.

Got a DJI Mini 2 lightweight drone.  Can't wait for the weekend and hopefully the weather is good enough to get it outside for a while.  For now it's fly it around in the house with the prop guards on.

try not to hit anything with it

Just got this thinkpad L380, probably the best built laptop I've ever had, the laptop itself is very sturdy and feels great. Not to mention that it's in pristine condition, worth every penny of the 300£ I paid for it, plus it still has 10 months warranty.

What specs does it have?

i5-8250U

8gb ram, thought it has 2 slots so i can upgrade it later if needed

256gb m.2 sata ssd that think it has written 250 petabytes to it.

And a 1920x1080 display that looks like an ips though I haven't checked.

Took a trip to the store to get a torque wrench and feeler gauge to check the spark plug gap for the spark plugs on my car...now I'll have to wait until the morning to change the spark plugs as I just drove the car.

Because texas has a split personality, likes to turn off our electricity grid and it hits 100 and hell Fahrenheit in the summertime.

Nabbed a couple of LEGO cars, namely the 911 Turbo and the Audi Quattro S1 E2 as it's my birthday today, and I thought they might look nice sat on my desk.

 

 

Also got some sets from the Botanical collection, both for the fiancee and to look nice hanging around the house.

Nice clickbait video. 

 

In the end it states they do work but just not energy efficient. Since this is a BACKUP A/C and heater in case my electricity goes out it will be plugged into my generator. 

 

But it will be used full time as a dehumidifier when needed in early spring.

Not clickbait at all, very accurate.

 

They're so inefficient that they're almost useless. I have one too becasue where I am I probably only need AC a week or 2 per year, but it's just enough to bring the temp down about 3°C in a pretty small room, AND I'm ducting the intake to the outside already.
