My son, who was able to ask Sam Altman (CEO OpenAI) a few questions at his university yesterday and also got the answers (and a business contact later on). πŸ˜‰

Just thinking, they could also be a Sd.Kfz.

 

(For non-history buffs, WWII-era designation for heavy military vehicles, typically half-tracks and tanks, compared to ordinary cars which were Kfz.).

Managed to pickup a Sonos Beam 2 second hand for a great price and I am very happy with it. The voice clarity is better than the unit I have which retailed for 3 times the price I paid, and whilst not having a subwoofer does mean a lack of deep rumbling bass, there is enough for a bedroom.

 

IMO it punches well above it's weight for the price.

Bought some ink cartridges from a place called Computer Food, and found some human food (a couple of toffees) in the bag too.

I have used them for many years. Never had a problem with the product I was buying. I don't eat the toffees as I value the fillings in my teeth. Nevertheless, a good company.

Every time I drive my V6 ZB Commodore.

 

German built, with a US engine and transmission, with Australian input. Fantastic adaptive torque vectoring AWD system coupled to a  peppy V6. An excellent combination of performance and handling.

 

Everyone I know that has one drives it with a smile on their face

A new Orphan X Novel and Meatstock this coming weekend. Rugby is back.

 

Effectively a 3 day weekend with a little spare time, and I get to hang out with my boy.

 

So much to smile about right now. Even that makes me smile.

Picked up a 4 pack of 25g CO2 cartridges for my tyre inflator/emergency tool kit for my bike for $7.50 on sale. 
Many places are selling single cartridges for that!

The fascia and harness I ordered from Aliexpress fitted my car and new stereo. Everything works with minimal bodging. It's a rather nice surprise.
