1:00 AM Just saw something in the news that reminded me something. I saw a very tall guy with gray goatee who entered and exited Fred Meyer in the same time with me yesterday @ 4 PM when i went to get beer and a few other things. But he wasn't smiling.

Today i got in the mail the same envelope i got yesterday and again put it back in the outbox addressed to somebody else with this address, from a Trust Fund something in Seattle?

And yeah, Christina Aguilera was in a car next to Liquor Store and got scared when i passed and shut the window.

9:50 The left me sleep more (2-9). It started milder than usually, then in full swing, but the person today was lighter than average. Then i looked as she went downstairs. Could have been her, but looked older than 41.

1:10 Awareness is her universal currency. Yeah she always gets me with that. Ok, but it will be a separate, one time intervention. (Why isn't she saying it herself, it beats me).

One percent of S&P is roughly half trillion. So if you look at the hole in the market that has just been partly filled today, you look at 5 trillion (only on S&P), or roughly the annual spending budget of the US (government) for 2022.

Have to imagine how much stock and money have exchanged hands during the current deep cycle or since Trump announced his tariffs (or even within last year), playing on American's need to change to a healthier state of finance.

2:05 Maybe it was good we took a break from Netflix, this way i was forced to look for something else to chill out my day so i can get to sleep. Last night i saw another very interesting movie, after the Vast of Night.

The Man from Earth. Though i fell asleep before the end, i was captivated for a while by the whole idea, which encapsulates both the futility of man (the understandable, big lapses in memory of the man who lived 14000 years which symbolize our whole species amnesia both long term and short term, look at politics) who at times knew many languages he then gradually forgot and was a buddy of Buddha himself, maybe Jesus (here comes the big exhaust noise, have to confess, i browsed a little), and the struggle of science to explain it all symbolizing the precarity of our current science respect to the secrets of life and history and stuff.

I remember at one time one of the many ex-colleagues scientists present in that house and room said something about pancreas cells being able to regenerate in 24 hours? as the whole body cells are renewed completely in 7 years (which i though i knew was true) which prompted me to do a google search today.

I would assume the cells themselves could divide that fast however it seems obvious the collagen made cellular matrix the organs are made of is endowed to us only once in a lifetime, if it's damaged, it cannot repair self and it turns into scar tissue (like in the case of cirrhosis of the liver) and the cells cannot survive outside of it or if they do they turn into cancer cells.

Yes! i had this idea to do another search when i saw the liver can completely regrow even after 90% of it was damaged, and i think it confirms my theory.

(But if you had 10% of the liver still good, could you remove the scar tissue and let it regenerate?)


10:05 Because i said i had trouble with settings after i reset Windows, somebody or something deleted this morning all the cookies in my computer and now every time i go to a site i have to click those stupid Accept things. Who was the genius who invented those and what is their real purpose? I'd say rather psychological.

About Windows, it started to do again what was doing before reset and that was about a month ago. First, the screen now flickers when i start the browser. And it slowed down a bit. It will keep slowing until i can't use it anymore and have to reset it again and that's the reason we all call it Windows.

I really don't understand, if i choose the option reset with keeping of the files, why my cookies are deleted after reset?

Why i don't go back to Linux? That is a good question, i think i was in a hurry doing something when i bought this PC and because it is very fast compared to what i had before, i was satisfied at the moment.

Yes i had to reinstall Fedora quite a number of times, mainly for numerous updates and versions, but i had to stop at some moment because they did not support my old video card anymore, but it had a separate partition for the OS and could keep all the files no problem. Until the power supply of that PC got fried and then i started to fry myself more seriously (not only legs from wi-fi antennas under desk) with the laptop.

12:10 Keep arguing with Angela forever because of the Michelinas. I got to the point when i put them in the microwave, set it four minutes, add some extra grated cheese or cooked meat and the let it cool and eat them. She and the box says i should do more minutes for a lower power microwave but i say...
