It must be a grumpy old man thing.

Now you're sounding like another member.

I thought the subject of this thread was the solar powering of the new market, not where to fish or what to catch.

Doesn't look anything like him, IMO. And besides, Hitchcock was a right arsehole, a domineering, super-rich thug, who set out to make womens lives miserable if they didn't submit to his demands and selfish desires. He set out to destroy Tippi Hedrens acting career, and did so, because she rejected him. He said, "actors should be treated like cattle". He would make a good mate for Trump.

He only opens his mouth to put his foot in it. In Davos, Switzerland, he said, "Without us, you would all be speaking German." German is the main language spoken in Switzerland.

O.K., so it's Dhufish I'm talking about, although so many people still call them Jewfish here on the Left coast. The problem I see is that, in commercial fishing, along with the firearm laws, the innocent people are paying the price for the few who have caused trouble. The W.A. Govt has set the fishing limits for commercial fishermen for decades - now they've just whipped the rug out from under them with a total ban - and no consultation. In addition, the State Govt does nothing to allow shark fishing (in fact, it's totally banned), and sharks are proliferating to the detriment of commercial fishing. To top it all off, overseas-based fishing fleets are allowed to plunder our waters, with bugger all chance of being caught. This is not just a W.A. problem, it's a world-wide problem. The commercial fishermen have only just managed to get the Govt to agree to a meeting between themselves and the Govt - but the Govt decision-making has already been carried out. This is not how democracy is supposed to work, IMO.

Bloody Hell! Here's another bit of AI slop using the image of the woman I spoke of in a previous post. The content of the attached video is very dangerous.

Don't worry. Nev will be along shortly, to remind you that's not funny. 'You can't judge a book by it's cover.' And there's no law against that.... until last week.

Picking on Macron's Glasses is a LOW Point. He's apparently suffering a burst blood vessel in the eye.. Trump NEVER misses an Opportunity to be totally DEVOID of CLASS, and entirely CRINGEWORTHY. Nev

The Large Bones are easy to separate and the flesh is very white. Maybe Lake Bream are better. What they eat decides the taste. Nev

It was a good speech, as was Ursula von der Leyen's.

Bream are just seachickens, everywhere but not that tasty and a lot of bones. Bream are extremely slow growing a plate size can be 20 years old. The Snapper are awesome tasting, Gar etc lovely. The Jew is extremely tasty if bleed and gutted on the spot, many don't and this effects the flavour and shelf life.

You can catch them from a Beach all along the Coast south of Pt. Stephens. I've never tried eating one. Bream and Snapper are a good fish to eat. Garfish and Long Toms are the best flavour . IMHO. Nev

Here one I caught, it's 71cm and was succulent and sustainable if the rules are followed.

The GOOD Book says "do not Worship Craven Images". Nev

I assume you mean Dhu fish , not Jew fish which is actually Mulloway. Molloway just means big fish. Mulloway are also a east coast fish and very fast growing. I catch them all the time and they are generally 3-5 years old as a big fish and reach legal fishing size of 70cm and capable of breeding, by 5-6 years they are 90cm or more. They can get to over 1.4 metres and live to 30 years. depending on the area they can grow very fast- here in Port Stephens we are renowned for them and its a major breeding area. The Port is a extremely healthy system , with limited commercial fishing and many areas that are sanctuary breeding zones, we are a giant national park and Ramsar bird sanctuary. We have a hatchery here as well to increase numbers back to sustainable volume following years of over fishing. The size minimum went from 50 to 70 cm, the flesh is sweetest in the 70-90 cm range and below 50 cm are called soapies and have a slight soapy smell and taste. Most of us will return any bigger to the water for breeding, we tend to "encourage" catch and release unless you absolutely want to eat it and treat the fish with respect at all times. I think the WA govt handled this really poorly but the closure of the fishery or at least restrictions are vital or the system will quickly collapse.

Crawling back to original topic. This video gives an example of how AI can be used in a positive way to enhance a hobby. It is interesting that the creator is recommending that in this example AI is only used when a commecially made item is not available.

Compare the map of Tuvalu to the profile of Alfred Hitchcock.

According to the article that published that photo, he was the star of a famous TV western series, a contemporary of James Arness, but did not like him.

I have had a bit of experience on trail bikes.. mainly Honda XL's (75, then 250) In time for the lad, as we want to do a fairly decent adventure.. DR650s (Suzuki) may be the order of the day.

Some times Alcohol affected people Let a Lot of Vital Information slip Out, that is good to have. Nev

Although my phone as no real links to my social media, I am hesitant to visit the USA, which pains me a bit because a good mate has recently contracted Parkinsons and I would dearly like to visit him.
