  • also, Bing has very little idea how to draw a crowbar...

  • Come on, what would you rather; actually use that energy to make a real fried spaghetti sandwich? Next you will tell me that I can see a real sunset if I just venture outside...

  • Just to add, I have 2 young kids, They would tell me if I generally smell. They will sometimes comment if I've been out mowing the lawns / clearing scrub / cutting up loads of firewood.

  • I don't use deodorant or antiperspirant, and have not for years (decades even). I have asked and no-one has said I smell bad - although I'm not a heavy sweater. If I have worked out/done heavy exercise then I'll generally shower if I can, but even if I don't it's not a rank smell, just a 'musk' ( I have asked). I've worked with a guy that did use antiperspirant/deodorant and by half way through the day he was rank...

  • Oh, I missed that one. Maybe it's the sentient AI behind Sam's demise at OpenAI and there is a glitch in the matrix allowing us to glimpse it in the moment?

  • he is a bit rough

  • As the other poster said it may have been pork offal, It was from a street vender in one of the large markets

  • I forgot that I have had both of these in Northern Europe, mostly as they don't seem that exotic when you grow up eating 'wild meat'

  • All sorts:

    • Cat & Dog in SE Asia
    • Horse, Donkey, Zebra, Crocodile, Sheep's brain in Europe
    • Kangaroo, Emu, Ostrich, Possom, Rabbit, Cricket, Goat, Huhu grub, almost all offal? etc in New Zealand
    • Something I have no idea what it was in Russia

    Edit:

    • Moose and reindeer in Northern Europe
    • Lots of seafood at home in NZ, both raw and cooked
  • I've had the same dynamic IP for nearly 3 years, except for about a day after a 2 day power and internet outage, I suspect that the IP only changed because of temp routing within the isp during the outage. I got my old IP back after less than a day.

  • It was, but the competition is called 'Bird of the Year', Forest & Bird (who run the comp) just called it Century for their 100th anniversary.

  • With all the paper-craft, here is a folded paper Pūteketeke

  • Ferryhill For the first 6 months I was staying in Eppleby, well done if you can place that dot on the map. I must say that a village that small felt very closed off and it wasn't until moving into Darlo that I felt that I meet 'real' people.

  • a photo of a model hearse made of wooden toothpicks, the hearse is very ornate in in a steampunk style

  • Wasn't quite Geordie land, I was based in Darlo / Middlesbrough area. Probably not too different.

  • I'm a white heterosexual guy, Grew up in New Zealand through the 80's and 90's - long hair on guys was not uncommon even in small town NZ, and I rocked full head of hair 1/2 way down my back...

    I moved to northern England in 2000, I think I heard all the fag/gay/poofter... terms thrown at me, more often than not with vitriol.

    Ps I finally cut it all off last year after having long hair for around 35 years

  • Not done it at 3am but have dd'd to the wrong disk late in the evening, possibly after a few vinos
