We are planning a trip to San Francisco & Sonoma the end of March. Looking for suggestions on the great things to see while we're there. We are definitely going to Alcatraz and hope to do the boat ride for the Golden Gate & Bay bridge. It is our first time there and we are staying close to Fishermans warf.
We hope to drive the coast and see some wine country also. Thanks everyone!

I would try the Bay Model in Sausalito, a lot o people don't know about it, even locals, made by the Army corp of engineers many years ago, it's a model of the topography the bay, fascinating. Check on it first it's hours are spotty .

Please download for correct color and detail.
Nice images. How about some location details. Your heading is like taking some shots of old mining areas like Leadville, or a shot of Pikes Peak, or even the headwaters of the Colorado river and saying old mining town, beginning of a big river, USA, mountain state.
As real estate agents say location location location.

I'm a long-time computer guy around data and big data. It really irritates me when companies label their new functions as A.I. since it is really pattern matching or machine learning. Topaz and Skylum are the worst offenders in my eyes (and I own and use both) but I was really glad to see Pixelmator brought out a new resolution function which they labeled ML Resolution (machine learning). I know, I'm an old fart but I hate marketing spin.
I dislike the term AI in general. It is neither artificial or intelligent. At best I think of them as expert systems, very powerful complex computers and software but not in any way intelligent.
And not artificial either, might no be a biological but definitely not artificial. Mechanical "minds".
Eventually I think there will be fully sentient mechanical minds like Data from Star Trek TNG, and I'm inclined to think it will happen as a result of tangential research then some network will "wake up smart"

A computer ALWAYS boots to the BIOS first. It contains the needed instructions to get the hardware running, then and only then can the OS load. It usually happen so fast you don't notice, odds are your mother board battery is dead or dying and the multiple boots is giving it enough charge that by the second or third boot attempt you can boot normally.

Looking to buy a laptop for studio work and would like some input. What do you recommend?
Just updated my computer to Dell Inspirion 15.6, 4K screen, 16 ram, 512SSD. So far more than enough for what I'm doing, including Solidworks CAD.
List for this is "normally" $1500, I got it $1200. I got mine in a pre-Thanksgiving sale, check sales come and go regularlly and this time of year you should save some.
From personal experience over the years don't get HP, they might seem good out of the box but seem to deteriorate quickly, and HP support sucks
Lenovo are also good, I have 3 of them, but didn't have the $$ for the model I really wanted this time.

This is one of my preserved Paper Wasps. I've had this one since spring and it is holding up quite well. While I had the Frankenstein lens setup on the camera (three lenses connected in series with each other mounted on extension tubes), I wanted to do one more session so here is a study of its compound eye.
Thanks in advance to all who view and for your comments, suggestions, questions and critique.

I classify HP in two eras BC and AC, before Carly and After Carly, BC I didn't think twice about HP. my go to for printers, calculators and computers.

so the Iranians are causing the trouble? Ever think that maybe the US murdering their duly elected Prime Minister in 1953 and installing a US pet dictator might have something to do with US - Iranian strained relations? Nothing happens in a vacuum.
Just think if the situation was reversed do you think that the US would say , Oh yeah ! we did elect the wrong guy, sorry about that, thanks.
There are very very few countries that the US empire has not threated either militarily or economically , and usually because the were not willing bow down to US demands, whatever they were, and the US considered that a "dangerous thread".
