  1. Have they asked Gina or Clive?
  2. There are 3 lows coming at us (in the south). Unusual, they are close together and bode for some active weather.
  3. Hey Marty, I'm bringing by kayak for a bit of whitewater fun!
  4. That's just your algorithm working for you.
  5. That's not the fault of the constitution. Every system can be hijacked if a leader plants compliant assistants who only answer to their benefactor, and ignore ethically obeying the rules. In the US case, removing trump from the equation fixes nothing. I only permits the unethical rabble to run amok.
  6. PS, contrary to the current voices in Washington, the United States was NOT founded as a christian nation.
  7. Rather than rewriting the constitution, if they just follow it...... Founding fathers tried to separate state from all religion. The US really began it's slide when the christian lobby got control - about the same time their (&our) government implemented prayer sessions into government processes. The only thing needed to reclaim some semblance of respect is to get the whole lot to obey the rule of law, ditch religious fundamentalism, and drop the Electoral College.
  8. Now you might understand why Terrump is urgently needing a billion dollar bunker.
  9. If you want more rain, hanging washing on the line should do it. In your case, It might help to wash the car, just to be sure.
  10. But Nev, I'd expect a trained pilot would identify before actuating a control. (even in a car) The average idiot doesn't think that way.
  11. Don't worry, Peter. The next generation of cars will have A I. voice recognition. The makers will not fit control stalks on either side of the steering joystick.
  12. At last! Good to see you finally got some rain. Now you'll be complaining about having to buy a lawnmower. Where we are, I'd have to say 'Crikey it's damp!'. Every day we wake to grey wet mist, punctuated by bouts of drizzle. Forecast is the same for the forseeable future.
  13. Will the day come, when 'Robot dog bites robot postman' hits the headlines?
  14. I was just pointing out that windage is simply an engineering consideration for all structures.
  15. We have got Jerry-AI-tric back. But I won't believe the real Jerry's back until I see his normal keyboard scramble posts.
  16. I know it's just a meme. But is it true?
  17. The Not-a-war is going bigly for amerika.... Well it is going great for the arms replacement industry!
  18. Hey! Wait a mo! That can't be OUR Jerry. There aren't enough keyboard errors. Where's my tinfoil hat?
  19. You have dashed my hopes for an A.I. that is logical and unbiased enough to rule our world.
  20. BTW, Thanks. I was missing your sentient inputs
  21. So, it sounds like a duck, it speaks like a duck, it reacts like a duck, it reasons like a duck..... but it isn't a duck? Or are you saying that most human beings can't be considered to be sentient?
  22. I think about that when I see highrise buildings. The windage must impose massive leverage on the foundations.
  23. I reckon those secret service guards might benefit from a bit of gun training - it took 30 shots to bring down one lightly armed person. (there was only mention of him having a hand gun)
  24. No, just another day in good ole USA. If he intended an assassination, I doubt he would pull a pistol at the front gate. So, simply another deranged gun nut.
