No, I've never worked with poo tin. Which is good because I don't have to be afraid of windows.

Bloke I used to work with said that when he died, the universe would end. I told him that I was happy to take that chance but he didn't seem to want to test the theory.

Depends whose volt it is

Yeah it's kind of "almost there". I do like everything from the handlebars back, including the seat. But the rake is a little extreme and the translucent cover a bit unnecessary.

Spacey the law is fine, it's your interpretation of "give way" that needs updating

You might be right. Not sure why there's a clutch lever too.

I call AI on the spider thing

This is only a concept at the moment, but I find it strangely compelling... What do you think? https://www.designboom.com/technology/curved-electric-motorcycle-ev-outlier-concept-bucket-seat-honda-japan-mobility-show-2025-11-03-2025/

Spacey, if everyone stopped at a roundabout until there was no traffic on the roundabout, there would be gridlock. That's not what they're designed for.

Yes they have precedence BUT if there's room you can go. Giving way means not causing them to brake/swerve to avoid you. If there's no chance of that then you can proceed.

Yeah - I remember a picture of a grinning George Dubya Bush in 2016, with the caption "When you realize you're no longer the worst US President in history"

If there's a car already past you, there's no way to "give way" to it anyway. If there's a car on the opposite side of the roundabout, unless you're a real slowpoke you'll be out of his way by the time he gets to you. If the car on the roundabout approaching you has his left indicator on, he's going to exit the roundabout on your road so he's not stopping you. (Obviously keep watching him in case he's indicating incorrectly). So the only cars you have to wait for are those on the roundabout with either no indicator or right indicator on, approaching you from the right, where there's not enough room for you to safely go in front of them.

Funny how all my least favourite people hang out together.

For someone who "hates the major parties", you spend a lot of time hating on Labor and a lot of time loving Trump.

Abracadabra I wanna reach out and grab ya

Doesn't matter if you agree with it or not. It's the law.

Yeah, no thanks Spacey.

China is making airborne wind turbines now. Reel them up to where the optimal wind speed is. https://amp.scmp.com/news/china/science/article/3326920/worlds-most-powerful-flying-wind-turbine-launched-western-china

This shows Trump's character perfectly. https://www.abc.net.au/news/2025-11-03/trump-says-uk-royals-suffered-with-pressure-over-epstein-scandal/105966134 In short he says Andrew's loss of royal titles is a "terrible thing for the (royal) family" and he feels sorry for them. Notice he doesn't feel sorry for the woman who was forced to have sex with Andrew when she was 17 and he was 40, and has since taken her own life. Probably because he himself has things to fear from the Epstein files. After all, when you're famous like him you can just grab women on the pussy, can't you! So it's a terrible thing when another rich entitled prick actually faces some consequences for his behaviour, even if they are too little and far too late. And this is the man you admire GON? "Trump good"?

I think he's a joke.

I loved the food in France. Hope to go back in a few years.

And guess what? He's still in the job. Because he's doing a good job and Albo didn't fire him just to make the orange baby-king feel better. Even Sussssan backed off. Yes Kev isn't perfect but he's working hard for this country.
