WTF was the First Doctor going on about with Pi and a chessboard on Gallifrey (in the Death Zone)? #DoctorWho #TheFiveDoctors.
Whenever I see a “I designed a X site” promoted on reddit or social media I just think it’s AI. Especially if it’s leveraging public data.

@vwdasher@weird.autos I’ve been using VentraIP for a number of years because I wanted to use an Australian business.
Oh, they got the TBM unstuck and they've finally finished the tunnel for Snowy 2.0. #Australia

When sites with 2FA don't go to the entry box after password entry annoy me. I don't know how often I am tapping away on the num pad, just to realise those key presses are going no where.
I once stayed the night at a pub in Morgan, South Australia. A fight broke out in the street later that night, with screams, burn outs and the like.
Then the next day I encountered a guy wearing only a towel on my way out of the (shared) bathrooms at the pub.
Kinda interesting. #SouthAustralia

@vwdasher@weird.autos That first one looks amazing. The second makes it look so tiny!
Interesting to see an Australian native talked about as an invasive species. It’s usually us talking about all the invasive pests and species here. #trees #Australia
I found this video fascinating. Tactical Cat Ears in Ukraine. #Ukraine

@MyView@aus.social I’m always checking what the country of origin is. Citrus is one of those things we expect to be Australian grown, but isn’t some of the year. I guess because the season is long especially compared to asparagus which is really short for Australia (then it switches to Peru / Mexico).
If you want buy a single loose orange in the supermarket, it’s product of the USA. But to buy a bag of oranges, they’re product of Australia. #Australia #oranges #food

@vwdasher I sat in it at the Melbourne Motor Show. The driver’s seat has really high seat bolsters. Not good for a chunky lad such as myself, whacked my thighs getting in and out, but too hugging when sat in.

@augustusbrown@aus.social @phocks@bne.social Didn’t know this, was just idly listening to triplej. Have downloaded the SBS audio app, now listening to SBS Chill.

@fastmail@mastodon.social There was that weird period where you got bought by Opera and personnel had to move from Australia to Europe. That did make me consider switching providers.

@troberts@theblower.au You could possibly have just become nose blind to the smell.

@troberts@theblower.au I've taken to kinda ignoring the news, and then only watching the SBS world news from about 7pm onwards where they cover more so world events than contuiningly going over things that probably don't need as much coverage as they're giving.

@troberts@theblower.au I saw a video supposedly Apple will be licensing a version of Gemini as the back end to Apple Intelligence, because they’re so behind on AI and that Siri/Apple AI has just not worked how they wanted.
