Rain

 A large storm has come in from the Pacific, carrying a lot of water.  Yesterday it rained, and then cleared up a little.  Today it's raining a lot

Our dry stream is running.


Water running down the street, eddying a little.


Backyard, more dry stream.  Look carefully, you might be able to see it raining sideways.

There is a lot of water to be dropped.  Eventually, that red streak made it on top of Tucson.


Yesterday we had rich people saying stupid things out loud.  
BREAKING: OpenAI CEO Sam Altman says having RAM in personal computers is an inefficient use of the world’s limited DRAM supply, arguing it would be better allocated to data centers, per Tom’s Hardware

Think about that, he wants the population of the United States to have their data on data center servers.  Who is going to provide all that network?  This is the dumbest thing Sam has said to date. 

And then Haley Stevens, who lost to Abdul El-Sayed in the MI Senate Democratic primary said this: 
I am endorsing Mike Rogers for the United States Senate today.  She just killed her future in the party.

Other than 
this, I have nothing interesting or important to say.
