I'm disappointed, but somehow not surprised.

An unusual hardware feature of the NES:
I didn't even know there was an International Non-binary Day!
About two decades ago, I opted out of binary gender and attempted to take on zie/zir pronouns. I really wanted to see non- and other-genderedness be recognized. I kept with this for quite some time despite a lot of social pushback. Still, after a while my anxiety got the better of me. I settled on she/her. But I definitely gave up on gender internally, and I would say as much. ("You're a woman, right?" "Ennh... *shrug*")
At some point within the last few years I saw the rise in folks using they/them and decided it was time to try again. I've settled in comfortably!
So, thanks to all you other non-binary types out there! Even if individually we couldn't all keep up the struggle, our collective efforts are showing real motion... and some of us who'd nearly given up are optimistic again. (And helping push!)

Today's gender is confident and tired.

This is the Setun computer
It was developed in 1958 at Moscow State University
It used ternary logic with a balanced ternary numeral system (which is to say, -1, 0, 1)
basically: NON BINARY COMPUTER FOR NONBINARY DAY!

Hitchiker's Guide to the Galaxy, world events, Cannabis
Y'know that part in the Hitchiker's Guide to the Galaxy where Ford Prefect tells Arthur Dent to drink 3 pints at lunch as necessary muscle relaxant to help endure the trials to come?

TIL Photoshop needs a lot of memory to edit a 386 megapixel multi-layer image. That's as many as 404,619,264 pixels! And that's terrible.
And my laptop is very, very warm right now.

Lizard is apparently the second best NES game of all time...? At least, according to GameFAQs.

can we declare "real name" policies on social media to be an unmitigated disaster and an utter failure at every possible level from start to finish yet

GEB Quote
“Numbers as realities misbehave. However, there is an ancient and innate sense in people that numbers ought not to misbehave. There is something clean and put in the abstract notion of number, removed from counting beads, dialects, or clouds; and there ought to be a way of talking about numbers without always having the silliness of reality come in and intrude”
