  1. A.I. = Assorted Intelligence. Have we created an automated version of Average (Human) Intelligence?
  2. That isn't a problem if you get your GP to issue an Escript. This comes to your phone. It is also sent to a gov website that the pharmacist can access (with your permission). The paper system is planned to be phased out in coming years.
  3. Is it my imagination or has t rump gone quiet? His constant crowing seems a bit muted lately. A muted trumpet
  4. Sorry Nev, nothing personal. I confess that there are (regional) parts that I do enjoy. But I moved to Tassie to get away from urban sprawl and congested roads. Such as our big east coast cities have all developed.
  5. Thankefor the update, Litey. I was wondering how poor old Zorro was getting on after you displaced him to redo the decking.
  6. Sorry, I am biased. To me Vic is just something I drive through on my way to proper Mainland Australia.
  7. The great thing about 3hrs out of Melbourne, is that gets you out of Victoria!
  8. Well Jerry, I don't think you'll get tucker like that if you come back and live in a big city.
  9. It's all greek to me.
  10. Strong roots.... doesn'tmake it good.... like the weeds in my garden.
  11. Which raises a random thought (sorry folks)..... What is synthetic oil made from? How do they sysnthesise that ancient black sludgy stuff that used to come from deep subterranean cavities? Is it a more environmentally nice process?
  12. I like that thought. You can't buy a better seat in heaven. "Y' come into this world with nothing, y' go out with nothing.... whattya lost? Nothing!" (Life of Brian?)
  13. That is unlikely to go very far. DJT pretty much has a friendly DOJ & supreme court.
  14. He didn't ask A.I. how this car would look if it was made in USA without materials that trump has tariffed out of availability.
  15. Of course. I was only jesting. I am surprised that car makers (well, piston engined cars) persist in having a coolant temperature gauge, when with modern technology it should be a simple matter to monitor oil temp. As well as actual oil pressure.
  16. Life is a game. Whoever dies with the most toys, wins.
  17. What's a album? A long time ago we had a family album - it had a cover.
  18. Can't you just pull the wire off the sensor?
  19. They couldn't use that one - it wouldn't hold the weight of those two!
  20. Still nothing more than old man Bjelke Petersen "Feeding the chooks" As usual the only cert for a win in the election is....... The Merdoks !
  21. Further to that thought, does little donny know he is putting a tafiff on imported aloomium that comes from an american company in Australia? (Edit) Correction. Boyne Island smelters are mostly Canadian owned - Rio Tinto. Still foreign owned (even tho they speak our language)
  22. Well it's an American owned smelter. I hope you don't think they leave the profits here. If it was an Australian owned enterprise, that would be value adding, to our benefit. If we then made stuff here from it, that would be forward thinking.
  23. Here is a Monty Python view..... From 5 years ago. https://youtu.be/nT5JBrKC5M0?si=5mLccTu1gZOzlVMb
  24. As noted on ABC news:- Where is the long term vision for Australia? Where are the long term plans behind policies? I look at the success of China, and before that, the economic rise of Japan. Both of these have ridden on the back of long term vision and plans for their economic futures. We have consistently failed to be consistent.
