When the family is out of town I always make steak.

What is your favorite cut of steak and what is the largest you have ever finished? I like NY strip - less fatty than ribeye - and once had a 28oz porterhouse. Once. Long ago.

Had Domino's for the first time in years tonight.

There are none where I live so it's a rare treat /guilty pleasure of mine.

SO GOOD. I got the Cinnamon icing things with it, man, ate them all along with my whole pizza.

I needed this.

Unf, ❤️ Domino's.

Yesterday my wife and I went to a store that sells primarily running shoes and clothes, she wanted some better gym shoes and I wanted actual running shoes instead of the cinder blocks I have.

They had this cool "3D" scanning thing for your feet that you stood on and it spits out a 3D model of your feet. They also had a pad to visualize the pressure points of your gait that we walked across several times.

Turns out I've been wearing the wrong size shoes for the past two decades. I've always thought I was a size 10 ½ or 10 depending on the brand. Nope, I should have been wearing a size 11 all this time.

Anyhow I picked up a pair of Brooks running shoes with custom insoles to match my arches and just tried them out.

Now I haven't really done much running in the last, I don't know, lifetime, apart from recently doing short stints on the self powered treadmill at the gym. But I just got done (about 45 min ago) running 1.6 miles. It's a very hilly area so I needed a few short breaks at the peaks, but I managed not to die and it only took me 20 min. MILLEH!! I run now! Well run slash jog.

But holy shit these shoes are fantastic. If the rest of my body felt as good as my feet did while running, I could have gone for days. Also, holy shit quality running shoes are NOT cheap.

The measure signed by Inslee, House Bill 1240, bans the sale, transfer, distribution, manufacture and importation of 62 gun models it defines as “assault weapons,” including AR-15s, AK-47s and similar rifles.

It also bans guns with specified features, including semiautomatic rifles shorter than 30 inches, those that have detachable magazines or fixed magazines with a capacity of 10 rounds or more, and those with detachable magazines that are also equipped with features such as flash suppressors, folding stocks or shrouded barrels. Also banned are conversion kits and parts that would allow such features to be added to guns.

The ban applies only to sales, not to firearms people already own.

The bill contained an emergency clause, allowing it to take effect immediately upon Inslee’s signature, which came just before 11 a.m.

Inslee also signed House Bill 1143, imposing a 10-day waiting period on purchases of all guns, and requiring proof that buyers have completed gun-safety training, such as an online video course.

And the governor signed Senate Bill 5078, which allows the state attorney general or private citizens to sue gun manufacturers and dealers under public nuisance laws if they negligently allow their guns to be sold to minors or straw purchasers, meaning those who buy a gun for someone else who might not be allowed to.

This is that game that lets you take photographs of your current view and use those photos then to manipulate spatial aspects. One guy ( I think ) has been developing this since 2018
