Habitats On Mars
Interesting design concepts from Hassell Studios.
Upgrading Phones
A record number of people are waiting to do it.
Apple, Samsung et al are coming up with new models faster than the demand for them. I’m happy with the Moto G6 I bought for a couple hundred bucks a year or two ago. I don’t see any features in the newer ones that I can’t live without. Of course, I see my cell phone as an evil necessity, not something integrated into my existence. I often forget to take it with me when I go out of the house, and only use it in the house when I need to text.
CA HSR
The LA Times has the latest on the mess.
[Update a few minutes later]
Kind of amusing that the contract value for WSP, the biggest consultant, is the number of the beast.
California Gas Prices
They’re now averaging $4 a gallon. I paid sixty bucks to fill the BMW last weekend to drive back down from the Bay area. Just nuts.
The Childrens’ Crusade
Thoughts on the modern version of it. What’s horrible is that children like Greta Thunberg are being terrified by leftist propaganda.
John Batchelor Show
I’m going to be on Hotel Mars this evening at 1830 EDT (1530 PDT).
[Thursday-morning update]
Sorry, I forgot that he records the shows. That’s just when I did it. I’ll let people know when it will air (if they care, or even if they don’t).
The Democrat Primary
Yup. The only one who has a chance of beating Trump is Biden, and he probably can’t get the nomination.

[Update late morning]
With twenty-one entrants, here’s the state of the 2020 Democrat primary.
Ohio
Democrats can kiss it goodbye?
I hope so.
Your Socialism
It’s bad, and you should feel bad.
