  1. I know you aren't really after a trike, but this might stimulate your imagination. Especially the front wheel setup.
  2. That's usually the case.
  3. Here's one for you. Wind tunnel tested, hand formed alloy body, straight 8 mid engine two seater. A pic of it before and after it's most recent resto. Not what I'd use for a run to the supermarket. https://www.hagerty.com/media/car-profiles/up-from-the-ashes-a-1940s-one-off-streamliner-is-reborn-again/
  4. Like all powerful things, A.I. runs the risk of being used for powerful good and powerful evil equally. And it has been developed primarily to make money for it's owners. Which is a good reason for caution.
  5. Crazy. Just crazy.
  6. No way. It's really a rather grand building..... Not enough fake gilding stuck to the walls. Not enough white marble either.
  7. Sounds just like Tasmania.
  8. So far, I am averaging a couple of dollars a day in feedin to the grid. And virtually nil consumption. Might not sound much, but that should add up to at least $700 credit a year. I await in anticipation to see if the new smart meter agrees with the solar inverter logs.
  9. Two guys at the bar. One says: "you won't believe me, but I can bite my right eye. One beer if you loose the bet? " They shake hands or whatever you do in that part of the world to seal a bet and then our guy takes out his right (glass) eye and bites in it. One beer later our guy says "you won't believe me,I but I can bite in my left eye as well." They confirm the bet. Our guy takes out his dentures and bites in his left eye. One beer later our guy says "you won't believe me , but I can piss in your right trouser pocket and you don't get wet". Well, the bet is confirmed, our guy takes out his noodle and pisses in the right pocket of his betting partners trousers. "Fuck, my trousers are all wet!" (giggling) "Sorry, sometimes I lose a bet...."
  10. Yes Nev. But science has little to do with Religiosity. Most religions find factual science a existential threat.
  11. It'll be a weight off your shoulders when the job's finished.
  12. Quote of the day, from Mr Hegseth: "The ideological clowns are out. The patriotic cowboys are in, with testosterone testing on top." I think the clowns have been out for quite a while.....
  13. It's all like the next chapter for the movie 'Idiocracy'
  14. President Trump’s accord on “super intelligence” signed with tech leaders in the White House Tuesday contains a glaring error—“United States” is misspelled. The accord lays out criteria for regulation and safeguards for different artificial intelligence technologies, and was signed by five technology company CEOs along with the president. But under the president’s signature, the text reads “President of the Unites States.” Did they use A.I. to create the document?
  15. Yes, I am this cynical.
