Oh no. It just means I bought it already in bloom, then the flowers wilted, and then some time later it bloomed again. So really I’m just bragging that I managed to make it bloom again.

Yes! There’s Monkey Island 1–3, linked from the bottom of https://networkscience.wordpress.com/2021/03/13/game-dependency-graph-day-of-the-tentacle/

Everybody knows you can factorize out the sum in the denominator because it doesn’t depend on j (It’s just a normalization factor)

Thanks!

It’s when going up the Sky 100 Observation Deck in Hong Kong

Btw, there were also a few Vandas, a even less Dendrobiums if I recall correctly

The Longest Journey

Thanks for the recommendation! I have a long list of games I want to play make graphs from, and I just checked and that game already on it. So one day, it should come

Exactly, it’s the Venetian in Macau

Surprisingly, I didn’t smell anything, even though it is supposed to smell.

Why is the first picture a Paphiopedilum? (It’s an orchid)

Oh yeah thanks, that’s what it reminded me of.
And btw, I didn’t know those were moved.

Yes

The photograph is taken looking up in a room. There are thousands of cables hanging down from the ceiling to the floor, with LEDs attached at regular intervals. The room has mirrors on the walls, on the ceiling and on the floor, so in whatever direction you look you see this. The whole this is programmed to shown different colors changing over time, combined with music and sounds. You can go through the room through a predefined path where the cables are shorter and don’t reach the floor, allowing you to walk under them. It gives the illusion that you’re in the middle of some infinite arrangement of lights, going on in all directions, sometimes moving, sometimes rotating, or just pulsating with the music. The room is part of a wider art installation called “teamLab SuperNature”, in Macau, and it is quite a unique experience.

The view is nice, but I think if I lived there I’d go once and then not again because it’s expensive

Thanks! It’s a pet peeve of mine when people use an abbreviated genus name without having written the full genus name first.

It tasted good, but I don’t think I would have been able to distinguish the taste from a “golden” kiwi

It tasted pretty much like a yellow kiwifruit, nice and sweet and better to me than the green ones. I was disappointed however that it was still mostly green inside.

That’s it, Aquaria KLCC in Kuala Lumpur
