I wonder if Ichiro will play this year? He says he wants to play until he's 50.

Is there a good bagelry in Pittsburgh? It would seem Pittsburgh would have a good bagel shop.
In a previous life, my family bakery used to make bagels. Interesting process, as they were boiled at one point as well as proofed (I can't remember in which order lol).

There was an interesting profile on UN Ambassador Nikki Haley in the Clemson alumni magazine. When she was 5 years old, Haley’s mother entered her and her sister into the Little Miss Bamberg pageant, something of a rite of passage for little girls in Bamberg at the time. They purchased their dresses...

Finished up Andy Weir's follow up to The Martian , called Artemis . It's basically a caper story on the moon city of Artemis (obviously in the future). I enjoyed the premise, but Weir is a good writer, but he's not talented enough to write a character's voice other than a middle aged white guy. The ...

Watching some Sea of Thieves videos - evidently, it's a Microsoft Studios title that will be cross platform with Xbox One and Windows 10. Your progression is shared across both platforms, and if you buy it for PC, you get a license for PC and vice versa. It looks pretty cool, but there is some skept...

I think he's still going to the All Star Game as well. Not sure if he's playing in the game or not, or if he's going to just play grabass with the league sponsors.

Have y’all heard of Trap Adventure 2? It’s a ridiculously hard iOS game:

Blackjack's Thread of Illness and Ailments
My mom, dad, and brother all have CPAP machines of varying types. Is this a hereditary thing? My mom has had heart valve replacement, my dad is obese, and my brother is just a run of the mill 41 year old. My doctor says that overweight people probably suffer from some sort of apnea.

Evidently, cryptocurrency mining has driven up GPU prices drastically. It's now cheaper in some cases to buy a prebuilt machine, because PC manufacturers have strict GPU pricing (meaning they can't raise the prices of their PCs when prices go up on GPUs). https://www.gamespot.com/articles/psa-do-not...

Most of the crazy tweets are deleted, replaced with an apology to Gatjka. Also, what caused this eruption? Coolong has been gone from DK for a couple of years now, is he just now realizing they owed him money? Weird.
