Can't believe the RoboTaxi Network that makes you money while you sleep turned out to be a scam.

I’m waiting for the cybertruck to turn into an absolute shit show once it’s released.

i dont know if its so much a scam, imo the issue is with no definite person to be at fault in the case of a fatality. the responsibility and hereby no one to be held responsible. until this can be a black and white scenario i cant see autonomous vehicles on public roads. private areas like lines and such is a different story as its clearly the workplaces owners responsibility to provide a safe workplace.

the driving pattern of our quadbike is probably the most compatible operating pattern that lends itself to electric power here. much like golf carts ( predictable and repeatable usage patterns) . the tractors not so much as operating days are inconsistent like today when iam cutting silage require long delivery time and long availability.

Drones as well are apparently only a few years away from being able to selectively apply herbicides based on specific weed identification rather than broad spraying, however the current breed are hybrid petrol powered devices with only electrics for the controls to meet the payload requirements, surveillance drones can be full electric for checking troughs, stock, fencing etc...

This is shitful behaviour.

And a really good thread by somebody who was there.

In very "exciting" news, Surgeons in New York have performed the first ever whole eye transplant in a human. Announced on Thursday, the accomplishment is being hailed as a breakthrough.

Apparently, the patient having not regained sight in the eye, is a rather minor matter. :rolleyes:

When I was in grade 2 we were playing at morning recess when a kid somehow had his eye dislodged. It was still attached but hanging on his cheek. He cupped it in his hand and we led him to the teacher who was on yard duty, Miss Daffey. When Tom presented to her and told her what had happened he was still cupping his eye. She asked him to show her as she obviously didn't believe him. I can still recall her throwing up. Tom lost his eye. I suspect that he may have had a prior condition.

I'm guessing that with the advances in stem cell technology at some time in the future there will be the ability to restore vision.

PS: A girl in my sister's class had a glass eye as well. He got a lot of pleasure by popping it out and holding it up in people's faces. That's making the best of a bad situation.
 
Lest We Forget...
my great-granddad went over the top at 9am on November 11th 1918. this is a poem written about him (its has some none PC names for people)
(Written in France By a Sergeant In Capt Brown?s Company)
Tis was the eleventh day of November,
In the year of old eighteen:
When the boys in France,
Were taking a chance
With Jerry across the Rhine.
T?was the boys of old ?B? Company,
?B? Company?s last twenty-one,
Who stood in France that very day
And heard Lieut. Brown say:
?We go over at nine,
There?s a gap in the line,
It?s up to you, so get busy,?
Well, we just stood up and looked at each other
From where had the order come?
That would send up across?t
When our men were all lost,
From shell, gas and exposure.
So our thoughts all turned to Battalion
To Woodward the Gold Leaf Man,
Who sat in a chair
With much of an air
Told what his Batt had done.
There wasn?t a bunch who were gamer,
With Brownie to lead us across?t,
But we knew the guns stopped at eleven
And we hated to pay the cost.
But we spread out in the open
With Brownie at the head,
And every man waited for it to come:
Well ?it? came when we advanced a kilo
A box barrage laid down from the hill.
And every man took to cover
And every man wanted to kill
The Huns who were causing the mischief,
But what in the world could you do:
With scarcely any protection
And Fritzie had the range on you.
There was Platakis, the wop, from Chicago
Who got some gas in his head
And Fulton a first-class private
Who just missed a ton of lead.
When one of the ?big ones? came over
And burst with an awful roar
When he came to he?d got some gas
And this cut us down two more,
But the rest were lucky, I tell you
And every man whispered peace
So we all crawled back to where we started,
?B? Company?s last twenty-one
For the Wop and Fulton were with us,
And we know our ?bit? was done.

Got seated at dinner last night next to a Reiki practioner who has a crystal shop. She asked me what my " spirit animal " was.

My wife quickly moved me to another seat. Wise move.
So what is your spirit animal? I'm curious. You didn't tell us.

Off to motley crue and def leppard, catching up with another shinbomerfor predrinks

How was it? Not really a fan of either band but John5 who’s playing guitar for Crüe is an amazing guitarist, I’ve seen him several times.

He can play :) Am not an MC fan but they all had their solo performances and he was pretty awesome, imo. Well they all were really. Tommy Lee is a funny bugger ....

You weren't on the same illfated train to South Yarra as I perchance? Some fella had the NMFC theme song as his ringtone .... I lolled a bit with a "we don't hear that very often"
