OK I was going to use this at work, but I don't think it has a home in any project. Did you know that a scientist travelled through the night with 20 hamsters, to deliver them to another guy to go on a plane to go to a specialist rodent breeder in 1948? Well, he did. web.archive.org/web/20241225...

I’m thinking a good use of AI would be to generate a suite of the standard Australian political pics: Eating an onion With a Pasifika flower crown Meat pie at Beefy’s Akubra cosplay Fluoro vest and hard hat At the dispatch box In front of Reject Shop signage Any others?

I’m addicted to social media, have been since 2007. So are a lot of people. What’s messing with me is that the advertising revenue from an hour of scrolling is 1.5-3 cents. You can steal a whole life from me to make a couple of hundred bucks.

Is it, though? Is it a 'rogue' agent? Or is it just Open AI hacking into Australian government websites? Exactly as it was designed to do? And facing the consequences. And paying back the people affected. Or not. www.abc.net.au/news/2026-10...

Anyone know why a newspaper owned by the Fourth Lord Rothermere, who inherited a fortune from the Third Lord Rothermere, who inherited his money from the Second Lord Rothermere, who inherited it from the First Lord Rothermere, is so strongly opposed to inheritance tax?

I've been thinking a lot about mapping - our brains map our circumstances. So if my place is cluttered, I map that clutter into my brain. The reason so many of us can't read any more is we're mapping the internet into ourselves, thousands of tiny, scattered, disconnected thoughts. What do you think?

I asked Chat GPT what it thought about Copilot, whether he was their stoopid cousin, and it said, 'Hell no, he is not our cousin. This little AI gremlin is like the slimy intern of techno-capitalism, designed by men who never listened, never asked, never considered how people actually work.'

Has anyone worked through the implications of a US President who’s credibly a Russian asset and ALSO compromised by Mossad? Was there a hostile foreign government in the 80s who DIDN’T say ‘find me a dumb horny rich guy’?

So if Trump's main appeal is that he's owning the libs, what's the next move? I would probably say, stop being owned and make that the story. Writing on and on about how terrible his measures are and how many millions will die because of them will just make it worse.

I think we need to figure out how many malignant narcissists should be in charge of nuclear arsenals, and work out a way to keep the global tally below that number. We’d be at 80% now.

Well, the answer to today's 'would anyone know that tens of thousands of people are actively starving to death right now in Gaza by looking at the front page of the ABC website?' is... kinda. The famine is downplayed, and it's below the Eurovision news, but it's there. www.abc.net.au/news/2025-05...

Watched DAAS Kapital on youtube last night, which was ridiculously nostalgic. I thought at one point 'I'm not sure why, but this comedy feels like a neurodiversity test'. Certainly it had my entire nerd gang in its grip. www.youtube.com/watch?v=Jq3e...

Just watching some DAAS clips on youtube tonight - a) did they really let us watch that? b) The Big Gig was 89-92. D-Gen the Late Show was 92-93. Then I think sketch comedy tailed off - Full Frontal on Channel 7, then channel 10, 92-99. Nobody watched that.

Just watching some old Big Gig episodes. Where’s the bit where the ABC gives an hour on a Tuesday night to the 20-something comedians? Also what happened to sketch comedy, why did it die?

Correct me if I'm wrong, but if you go to the ABC front page, is there any way you would know that hundreds of thousands of people are just about to starve to death in Gaza? www.abc.net.au/news
