I'm Hiding 🇦🇺

At least in Russia if he sued he’d fall out a window.

so America are still the good guys, right?

Knew exactly what scene this was before I’d even taken a good look, let alone read the text. One of my favourites, along with “I will not carry a gun, Frank”.

To be fair, POST could mean a number of things. Are we talking in a webserver context? BIOS context? The POST Office?

I got a fevah!

And the only cure…

is more pickle!

Aww

Absolutely not, I 100% agree.

To your point about who borrowed from who - one of my favourite examples is the story of Noah’s Ark, or less specifically, “The Great Flood”. So many religions and mythologies have a Great Flood story. It’s fascinating to see how similar or different certain people’s recounts were of historical events like that.

Like I say, at this point in my life I’m still of the opinion that a good chunk of the Bible means well, but who knows? One of these days I might run out of sci-fi novels to read and go cover to cover, old testament to new. It’s certainly possible my mind might yet change.

I admit I haven’t read the entire Bible. I’m not a particularly pious Christian, and I certainly don’t mean to try to convince anyone towards or against religion. Certainly, religion has its problems. That said:

I also love science. I’m an engineer, not a conspiracy theorist. I know the dinosours existed, I know evolution happened, I know the Big Bang was a thing. However, that doesn’t mean Jesus wasn’t a man who lived approximately 2000 years ago. It doesn’t mean he wasn’t a great teacher. It doesn’t mean there aren’t lessons to learn in any of the Bible’s stories.

Because that’s what they are: stories. They’re not 100% perfect recounts of events that happened. Heck, they’re most of the time not even 1% perfect recounts of events that happened. But some of them still have some wisdom worth sharing, just the same. At least, I think so.

I’m not an American, but can I ask how they can get rid of him before his four years is up? Is that what impeaching is? Didn’t they already do that last time? Didn’t seem to work…

China just has to sit back and watch us all blow each other to bits at this point.

If and when the time comes to pick up the pieces, China will be there. Oh? All you wartorn nations need new houses? Food? Energy? China is here to help. We don’t want much in return.

China will own us if they wait long enough.

Trouble is they’ll drag the rest of us down with them.

Similar to ChromeOS by the sound of it

Haha! Australia is a full democracy? What a joke!

Australia is America’s bitch. Even if our politicians gave a shit, they couldn’t do anything.

Oh won’t you please take me localhost??

I’ve been daily driving a Lenovo X230 tablet for the last four years. I use Xournal++ to take notes with the pen in classes and at work. Works great!

That’s true, but usually they get their method right (or close to it) but fail on the simple addition. If you use it to help figure out what steps you need to take, you can then run through substituting the correct numbers in and make some real progress.

I just completed a class on hydrology and water engineering with this method. Got a HD. That either says something about the school or something about GPT. Not sure which.

It certainly says something about my willingness to complete water engineering coursework, I’ll admit that.

Me, a young person: “both coffee and energy drinks are expensive. I’ll keep drinking tap water when I’m thirsty.”

shrugs in an indifferent hetro way

GPT wasn’t around during Covid though…

Fuck I wish the politicians would give this to us straight like that.

Why is Albo’s party spreading memes about three eyed fish instead of saying “yeah Dutton’s nuclear plan is safe, but it maximises fossil fuel use in the short term and we’d prefer to focus on renewables”
