Yummy! May I join you
That schnitzel looks just perfect, I'm more than a little envious!
Something like 5% of power worldwide is being used for Data Centers and it's projected to go up to 7% in a few years because due to AI.
We had a wonderful German place here for decades. Sadly closed some years back when the owners couldn’t hold when they became ill.
I would think weight driven, but I didn't see any or the pendulum. However, there would have been no room for the weights where it was hanging. It, or another like it used to hang in a different spot and I'm almost certain there were weights on that one.

Happy BD to Thomas!
Good Dad!
(Unless you were keeping him off your Thunderbirds. In that case, wise Dad!) I came close to buying one of those Pbasses a number of times
typo, meant 5% but closer to 10% in the Bay Area….
Anytime you are this way, we'll make it happen.Yummy! May I join you

Rightly so, it was fantastic--as always. For better or wursts, I almost always get the same thing. My wife brought some of her schnitzel and potatoes home and I had it for supper. Tasty! I have some of mine left over for another day. It will likely be gone tomorrow.

I have no qualms about admitting this, but I was only in a 'casino' once in my life. It was in the '70s in Lincoln Nebraska. My fading memory is of a very annoyingly loud, cigarette smoky environment. Yah, cheap or free drinks - at that time I didn't drink alcohol - so free Coke (a Cola). I plugged $5 into a "one-armed bandit" and eventually won my $5 back. I witnessed old chain-smoking ladies pumping multiple coins into the machines. I went there with my brother-in-law who was into that sorta' thing. It was an experience I never repeated. Years earlier, I made summer money for art-school (college) by working at a horse-race track in Omaha Nebraska where I grew up. One of my jobs was sweeping the grand-stands after the races ended. We swept up all the LOSING tickets - many thousands of them. Awaiting this duty, we all witnessed down-&-outs that lost their only money on the races. My family was never into betting - and seeing this all first hand informed me to avoid that 'world' like the plague.
Yah, love the romantic allure in film... but...

Oh yah , as I've followed you - I knew this.
I was just extrapolating on my personal experience with gambling, as it related to where you were. I'll bet it is/was a great show!
