    Eye of the tiger.
  2. I don't know that you could use it on the ocean. More for calm inland lakes.
  3. New way to do it. https://www.pv-magazine.com/2025/10/13/vertical-floating-pv-plant-comes-online-in-germany/

    Tasmania, at the moment
  5. Dammit, I had appointments in that missing period
  6. Actually it kind of is a game of cops and robbers (well, terrorists). Mossad is meant to be one of the most effective intelligence agencies on earth. If this is true then they should have been able to identify most of the Hamas leadership. Special forces should have taken them out with minimal collateral damage. The entire Gaza strip didn't need to be leveled.
  7. And somewhere else, on a planet orbiting one of those trillions of stars, some other alien commuter is also swearing at the traffic.
  8. It's called "Robo-Spacey" (Like Kevin Spacey but without the problematic behaviour)
  9. I almost gave this a tick instead of a laugh, but thought that may just fuel your paranoia.
  10. You're the one missing the point. Do you want a refund on your taxes if you didn't go to school, use public health or drive on roads? Do you think you should be refunded the amount of your taxes that went towards defence spending if Australia doesn't have a war? It's called being a citizen. The state provides certain services to everyone, and they have to be paid for by... everyone. In fact third party insurance is even fairer than most taxes because you only pay it if you have a vehicle registered for road use. Yet again you somehow conflate this with your national service, yes, we know, you've brought it up in almost every post. Time to get over it, and all the other chips weighing down your shoulder.

    I don't wanna grow up. Fortunately, it's not compulsory
  12. Probably looks a bit thinner now then.
  13. All whinging and no solution.
  14. Using Biden's plan. He could have stopped this war long ago by stopping the weapon deliveries to Israel when they started using them to target civilians, journalists, hospitals, schools, residences and basically turning the homeland of a million people into rubble.
  15. Let's hope the evil bastard never gets it.

    Bermuda triangle. Although my first thought was "British Aerospace are dumber"
  18. There's no shortage of hypocrisy in their belief system. Same as religious fundamentalists who reject science yet happily use all the things science has made possible, without seeing the irony.
  19. That's a lot of haircuts. Maybe they should diversify into hairdressing?
  20. That horse one in QLD came from bats. Kendra virus? Killed at least one vet, from memory.
  21. While I agree that it's a good idea to remove their firearms, it would be interesting to see how a (real) legal challenge worked out. As I understand it, one of the requirements for possessing a firearm is to be a "fit and proper person". If that's the legal basis that the police are using, it does raise questions about how you determine that someone is UNFIT to possess a gun. If the test is that you posted some shit online which makes you appear to be a sovereign citizen, where are the limits? Anyone at some point can be critical of the government, I've done it myself on many occasions. Do we want rights to be removed in that case? As I said, I don't disagree with the action, I just hope that the police are using substantial proof before acting.
  22. I thought he was taking the piss. As for his health advice... There's more panels in the cartoon, head to https://www.threads.com/@beckybarnicomics and scroll down if you want to see them.
  23. Where's Ducati? Intensive care?

    Try to understand
  25. Saturday was brilliant too, and I took full advantage of it. Lovely ride up to New Norfolk and back via South Hobart and Ferntree. That road is built for bikes. Best ride I've had in years.
