Took the dog to the Duke of Yorks cinema in .

She got a bit barky during a quiet scene where a man was walking heavily up some stairs. Good girl, looking after us.

A small terrier stepping into the isle of the cinema. You can see a bit of the big screen. Everything is bathed in red light.

“pet detective" found 330 lost dogs using thermal imaging drone 🥰

Photo of a newspaper page, reads: It wasn’t all bad • Erica Hart, a 44-year-old “pet detective,” has reunited 330 lost dogs with their owners in England using a thermal imaging drone. The volunteer started tracking down lost puppies in 2018, after her father gifted her a drone and told her a local dog was missing, setting off a successful search for the schnauzer. These days, she can usually find a dog that got lost in a field within a day, though her longest rescue effort took 12 days. Hart has even helped people on Christmas Day and New Year’s Eve. “I have seen large, 6-foot men burst into tears; it is price- less to see their faces,” Hart said. THE WEEK February 23, 2024

WARNING: Machine generated image in this post.

I took the `alt` text from the above and ran it through Diffuser (random seed came up as 129) and it produced this image. Where are bins?

A machine generated image, given the prompt: “An early evening view of Brighton Beach, looking out over the pebbles with three bins on the right edge of the image, and a thin crescent moon in the sky.” You see the night, the beach, the sea, but no bins or moon

A lovely clear night last night in . And this morning the birds were singing in some kind of enhanced HD, I’m sure of it.

Great idea, seen at Euston station.

Costs hung up outside a train station. The sign reads: PAY IT FORWARD Take a hat, scarf, coat or gloves if you are cold, leave similar for others that may also be cold.

Sorting the loft and finding a Duke glove puppet.

The Sun Microsystem’s mascot for the Java programming language is an odd critter: a big hat ? And a big red nose ? Who knows what it was.

Tonight I was over at in for brightonastro.com — specifically the Professor Malcolm Longair talk on science.

Way above my pay grade, but I like him and his story very much. Got a problem you need sorting at a NASA committee? Get Malc in.

I also got a badge with a doggie on it (Brighton Astro merch).
