after game interviews with Steven Adams on American TV , they are not ready for him . He just said "Absolutely sh#t my pants" on live TV .

Common sense is not as common as you think.

They are classics which are repeatedly viewed chez moi. Nice night for a neck injury !

For me, I smiled when receiving a soap on a rope from my son.

This is how the baton is passed from one generation to the next.

Knowledge is knowing that a tomato is a fruit, Wisdom is knowing not to put it in fruit salad.

The sheer absurdity of autocorrect makes me smile sometimes.

And that is why I will never trust self-driving cars and other AI systems.

The first openSource satellite in space (since a few days): FossaSat-1

Launched from Auckland by a Rocket Labs Electron for a ticket (payload) price of a car, 2 more satellites to come in spring 20, guess what? - featuring LoRaWAN (repeater), catched it on 436.7 MHz 🎡

Qui nihil scit, omnia credere debet. - He who knows nothing must believe everything.
Firewalls do NOT stop dragons. Really not. But your smart devices are spying on you!
I avoid Big Tech amap. They try hard to dictate technology and „culture“ across borders.
In effect we have everything to hide from someone, and no idea who „someone“ is.

I don't prevent you being a permanently smiling high speed guy when a meter reading only needs to be transferred once a week/month/year from any place in the world. It's just strange to others. :-)

This is what makes capitalism great -

https://www.theguardian.com/money/2019/dec/18/standardtoilet-tilted-employees-productivity

“The modern conservative is engaged in one of man's oldest exercises in moral philosophy; that is, the search for a superior moral justification for selfishness.” -John Kenneth Galbraith

Happy Festivus!

We should rename the small things that annoy (and possibly the whole ISP section) "Airing of Grievances" in honor of this special day 😀
