How do you have my IP address?

Don’t ask me how I know when the berries are in season…

“We are a community of Indigenous people and non-Indigenous service providers — these people stood out like a sore thumb,” she said.

😂

That’s a great idea. There’s probably other quiet streets where the occaisonal car wouldn’t be too bad as well.

Look, I get it. And I enjoy eating outdoors when the weather is perfect.

But I will never eat outdoors, roadside, with cars zooming past and trucks roaring by. Or even lots of foot traffic. You can’t hear anyone you are eating with, and I have never ordered a meal with extra exhaust or vape or whatever.

It’s beyond insane that the place where most of the whacko conspiracy theories were created {4chan) is somehow excluded.

They are going after the users and street dealers again.

BECAUSE OPEN SOURCE SOFTWARE IS COMMUNIST AND THE SPAWN OF SATAN HIMSELF!!

ALL THE COMMUNISTS ARE SHARING “REPOSITORIES” AND DOING “PULL REQUESTS” AND “COMMITS”. AND THEY ARE DISCUSSING THINGS OPENLY LIKE “ISSUES” AND “BUGS”.

THEY ARE PLANNING BRANCHES AND RESOLVING MERGE CONFLICTS!

GITHUB HAS TO BE STOPPED BEFORE THEY CAN RELEASE!

I don’t know who Lynelle Briggs is, but I’m glad that she is keeping the legend of Barry Humphries alive by doing a great Dame Edna Everidge impersonation. She just needs a bit more bedazzling and to throw in the occasional “Hello, possums!”

Updating my travel list:

Ooh, that’s perfect for both the people I most love AND the people I most hate!

Their ignorance of, and grasp of history is laughable.

The only kids that are actually better known than their parents are Rameses III, Caesar (you know which one), Jesus Christ, and Bronnie James.

(Please be gentle, I’m just joking around)

president is lashing out at female reporters

Is it lashing because rapng is out of the question?

I shit you not:

The comparison between AI and Temu as a metaphor for thinking highlights a paradox: while AI systems, like the e-commerce platform Temu, are built on vast data and sophisticated algorithms, their “thinking” is fundamentally different from human cognition. Temu uses AI to personalize shopping by analyzing user behavior, showing products based on clicks and basket additions, creating a highly efficient, addictive experience that mirrors how AI models learn from data. Similarly, large language models (LLMs) are trained on massive internet text, learning to predict the next word by adjusting internal connections—much like Temu’s algorithms refine product recommendations in real time. However, this process is not genuine understanding. Just as Temu’s AI can generate absurd imagery, such as a trailer-hitch-shaped camper, which reflects a failure to grasp real-world physics or context, LLMs can produce plausible-sounding text that lacks true comprehension or experience. The AI’s “thought” is a statistical simulation, not a conscious or experiential process. As one researcher noted, AI is not self-aware and has no idea of what it is doing, operating purely through probability-based decisions without any internal model of reality. While both Temu and AI systems appear intelligent by generating tailored, seemingly coherent outputs, they do so by manipulating patterns in data rather than engaging in genuine reasoning or understanding. This is why some critics describe LLMs as “stochastic parrots” that mimic language without comprehension. In essence, AI’s “thinking” is like Temu’s interface: highly optimized, responsive, and persuasive, but ultimately rooted in pattern recognition, not insight.

AI-generated answer. Please verify critical facts.

Yeah, nah. We are all fucked.

Nice beaver.

Oh, I might have upvoted this comment, but it’s only so I can come back with my army of Swifties,.Ciruses and Montanas to downvote you to the shadow realm.

Look, if anyone has some gift ideas, I would appreciate it. I am hopeless!

I’m for high, mid and low density housing, as appropriate. One of the pieces to improve housing affordability has to be to increase housing supply and therefore also density.

But I’m real worried about the infrastructure and services being available to match the increased population levels. Even if you just look at cars for some of the planned suburbs, the roads are already clogged. What is adding another 100K cars to that high density area going to do?

And calling a small area between four residential towers a ‘square’ won’t work.

I’m turning into a NIMBY and I don’t even have a BY!
