  1. Is that a useful vehicle, or just another vanity wankmobile?
  2. There is a record spend on advertising for these midterms. Saturation advertising with that sort of money will swing the average mugs. Always does.
  3. I can see A.I. being very useful for direct logic applications such as coding programmes. These are easily proven by test running the code. BUT Ignore AI 'summaries' like the ones google gives you. They are frequently wrong. In fact, the AI's have (for now) now been telling us they routinely make up things. Of course they call it cute things like 'hallucinating'. But the fact is, you simply can not assume the information that AI gives you is correct. Google: The tendency to hedge or create a false balance is actually a cousin of hallucination. When my system is caught between a guiderail to be "neutral" and a prompt about a controversial topic, it will likely "hallucinate" a sense of validity for an unsupported side just to satisfy its formatting goal of appearing balanced and polite.
  4. Can you tell the difference?
  5. Trump is telling the country to vote like his name is on the ballot. If this results in a slap in his face, we can expect crazy tantrums to result. He has a record of vicious revenge when things don't go his way.
  6. The Dems don't seem to promote any meaningful platform. The most they are offering is 'Vote for us to make things like they used to be'. Are they forgetting that the Trump led Republican administration got elected because the public don't want the previous style of corruption and warmongering? Sure it isn't draining the swamp. But will a Dem win be enough to bring about a shift away from billionaire controlled government?
  7. My goodness! The wear must be crazy. Side thrusts everywhere!
  8. I'm still saving up for a EV. But I put a self imposed deadline on myself. Only put 6 months rego on the old faithful Mitzi Outlander. With 350,000k on the clock she is getting a bit tired. At last oil change I gave her some 15w 50 oil which quietened the engine rattle down a lot.
  9. Cynic! Yes there are lots of similar crazies out there. And the fact that such examples are so easy to find, means that there are also statistically significant multitudes of slightly less laughable examples as well. Still indicates all is lost. I will match your cynicism and dig a pit of utter distain beneath it.
  10. It looks like USofA is beyond any hope of recovery..... I listen to online music from there and the add breaks have warnings about lead paint damaging 'your child's development'. They musta used way too much lead paint. proof? :-
  11. Oh, I misunderstood. I thought you were suggesting that an all powerful, universe creating god would be able to appear in any form - easily in the form of nessie. (he would if he has a sense of humour)
  12. You didn't. I was acknowledging that such projects are like other art forms - it's not done for profit.
  13. Although it is Tazmania, the sun came out. Nice pleasant day. Bike hasn't run since last summer - no reason to ride for pleasure when it's raining for 3 months. Great to be alive riding our winding roads! Got home to find that old faithful had contracted Jerry's disease. I noticed the instrument lights were pulsing at idle. A quick check showed battery voltage only 12.8v after a big run. Should be 14v. Another check showed onr phase from the alternator at 0v. and the regulator running hot. Ordering a new stator and regulator. A bit of a dampener.
  14. Well, since you asked, god, allah, jehova, yaweh, elihomin, adoahi, El Shaddai, Abbah, (etc, all these come from the bible) can be any form she (or it) wishes. Wot with being an all knowing, all powerful entity, an all. Hope this clears it up for you.
  15. Will, go for it. It doesn't matter what a project is worth in dollar$. Just do it.
