That vintage display was 1 of the last pure B&W displays.  They have all degraded.  It had a very appealing soft white & sl...

    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Hr6pxF3CL58  Funny seeing 3 of the lion kingdom day jobs from the superbowl formation.     The bald eagle's path was also visible.   1 last photo of the hills from this spot.     Lions surmised the finished product would look like Emeryville.  https://sfyimby.com/2025/12/construction-imminent-for-6200-bollinger-canyon-road-san-ramon.html    That's actually a new road & sidewalk next to the iron horse trail.  They're going to have cars crossing the current east/west walkway at 1 more point.  They're stepping down the height on the side facing Bowling Alley Rd while having the full height just next to the bike path where most animals won't see it.  Lions pondered moving there, but it'll most likely be over $5k.   https://sfyimby.com/2024/01/permits-filed-for-glen-at-heath-farm-development-in-walnut-creek.html Nifty view of the battlefield in 1970.  It was harder to ...

 So you're saying vibe coding now requires learning a new programming language.  In addition to the slash commands you now have to create skill scripts.  Lions were working on an mbedtls problem for which no examples existed on the goog.  Grok tried to fake it but was useless.   ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------   https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0uMmjshNY4A https://www.youtube.com/@sabrina.von.b    Would almost pay to go down there if dominant, evil queen was part of the package.  Wonder if she has a VIP plan.  Helas, she didn't have much to say beyond cliches a 21 year old would know. Gen Z women are really tall but still all doctor/lawyer/executive property.   -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------   Alternate gladiator history   Honesty, common sense, compassion, re...

   The old rose house in Titanic was in Ojai, CA in the script.  The filming location was never given.  It was probably a movie set in Baja.  It would have been expensive to stage an existing house with all that stuff.  It wouldn't be a retirement destination. The vanwives baja saga was pretty bleak.  Lots of difficulty importing water, having stuff disappear, organizing construction labor, getting approved, navigating bad roads, finding reliable storage.  The quality of what they show getting built down there is pretty low.  They have to repeatedly change storage units as places constantly go out of business, end up with shady landlords, or the government just takes stuff.  It doesn't sound like they're going to finish it.    --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Switching to a marginally better government,    While there were many videos of th...
