This image isn't mine but it is taken from a better angle. Also, when a motorcyle is cornering, the rider holds the front wheel a bit away from the direction of the turn. That is counter intuitive, but the artist seems to have captured that.

In a lot of racing, the rider slides his knee almost along the ground and sits a bit on the low side. I think it's a accurate depiction of Ken Blake's cornering style.

I once had a 28 Studebaker. But back then raising a family was more important than playing cars. Last week a mate sent me this pic of one. On farcbook marketplace - complete & in running condition - too good to restore.

As a party in opposition, they are suspiciously quiet. It's not as if the current ruling mob aren't giving enough mud to sling. I'm starting to think the oligarcs are bribing the Democrats to STFU.

I look forward to suffering such delightful political boredom.

We live in hope, but may die in despair.

Sorry but I don't share your enthusiam. I think that date will be when the real pandora's box will open. The flow chart of Distopian possibilities starts branching before that, but gets bizarre after that date.

Another unanswered question.... Are 'data centres' just big server centres needed to cope with the enormous increase in internet traffic? Sure, a A.I. request from me is not much traffic, but does the A.I. server then propagate a lot of worldwide traffic searching before it compiles it's answer?
