Interesting things too
Ah I've got a link that's relating to the debate that took down the other thread, and you know what I'm not going to post that news. I have no solution for that conflict over there.

hey, @Hiccups, love your work, I kinda missed the david bridie genius. bands like not drowning, waving, my friend the chocolate cake, have a nice day.. I dunno.. bands that the home-schooled type people liked (i.e. the intimidating intelligencia - I was more a kid that thought I was cool cos I thought the Smiths/Doors/Zeppelin revival was 'gay' and birdmen and rifles were cool.. very one dimensional in my neck of the woods).
Doubt @southern would be given stick @burls.. if he's been mildly loose, it was for a reason that he expressed and shared.
I only really now NDW from that song at the start of Bunyip Dreaming with Munga and Luke. It's a banger, though.
Worth a deeper dive. They were great live. David is a national treasure.
“Increasing Surfboard Volume Reduces Energy Expenditure During Paddling”
Ha ha. Just ask any bloke over 50 in the carpark, you will struggle to get a contrary opinion. File under bleeding obvious.

I’m an extreme gymnast and I don’t even know it.
ps. Aussie man extra angles were great.
Frank was good too.
A man replaces human contact with AI interaction, gains an AI friend, an AI girlfriend, gets made to do stand up with AI feeding him the lines, goes dating powered by AI; and then contemplates the world with this technology. Some solid cringe experiences for our protagonist ensue in a brilliantly written series:
I have never NOT watched one of your posted clips @VJ, I hope you know they are appreciated. The only thing I've ever suggested to you is that maybe be aware of your tendency to look for silver-bullet solvs (makes a self-obtained low vag swab out of you and me, as the saying goes ; )

“I don’t think the robots are taking over. I think the men who play with toys have taken over. And if we don’t take the toys out of their hands, we’re fools.”
“With regard to robots, in the early days of robots people said, 'Oh, let's build a robot' and what's the first thought? You make a robot look like a human and do human things. That's so 1950s. We are so past that.”
umm.. you all good, mate..?
that wildgrown woondum whoopie-weed has gotten more potent in recent years..
(how's the running with the 'I love how..' theme in the first clip's comments ; )
Yeah they were funny comments. Made me look into it, finding a few clips from different angles and stages of daylight.
Turns out it was a Chinese rocket booster that was predicted to hit hence all the cameras aimed at it.

haha, nice one. the creators clearly have a lack of spacial (sic) awareness; how big and far away the moon is.. (shame for them it wasn't more convincing. The 'there's no way C3PO had a silver leg' crowd can actually make you a living wage on youtube..)
NASA were tracking it and found the crater but strangely no dust cloud footage from them. Ketamine mustn’t be funded anymore. Ha.

Another teenager heading south looking for territory. It’ll end up in the Mary River for sure. Been quite a few there over the years.Elliott Heads is a beautiful stretch of white sand south through Coonar and Kinkuna. Kinkuna is a great camp spot.

It’s at Inskip.
About 10 years ago the croc warning signs that you see up north went up at Inskip for 6 months. I wonder if they’ll do it again. I’m sure it’ll find the Mary River eventually.

Probably the same croc. It found the Mary River.

Yeah, I loved the wide-eyed wonderment at how straight the arrows were. However, the bloke doing the sharing had a whiff of the Calhouns about him. No need to be a superior schmuck about it, its not as if he made the gear himself.

Oh yeah Blackers, for sure.
This take on the slop is more acerbic, however it includes some very good data points and a bit of futurecasting - can't wait till everyone is wearing one of the microphone recorder type gizmos...
Look after yourself.
