Let's talk about Artificial Intelligence
red750 replied to old man emu's topic in Science and Technology
The thing I can't get over is how they can convert a colour slide into an action video like the example I posted in the Photography thread. That slide was taken 20 years ago last Monday (23 Feb 2006). -
It's ON! Iran's supreme leader, and possibly his son, have been killed. Beirut airport has been hit in retaliation, disrupting air traffic. Edit: It was an Israeli strike.

Correct. Hint - American expression.

Why is inexpensive electricity so expensive?
red750 replied to Grumpy Old Nasho's topic in Science and Technology
-I've been with AGL for a few years. We got a smart meter at least 6 years ago, way before my wife passed. The meter is read remotely. I can log onto my account, see the current accruing cost and an estimate of what the bill will be in X number of days. These figures are constantly updated. This helps my budgeting. I wish they could do the same with gas.

Correct.

Trump's mantra is to prevent the Iranians from ever having nuclear weapons. He says they have been given opportunities to come to the table to negotiate but have failed to do so, therefore he is determined to raze their nuclear processing facilities to the ground.

Used to doing a bit of hitch hiking in my late teens. Family lived in Warragul and I was employed in the bank in Melbourne. In those days, banks opened on Saturday mornings, so I didn't knock of until the last train for the day had departed. Had to get home to get my washing done. I remember being picked up one day by a woman in her 50's/60's. She was prepared with a hammer on her knee.

Well known personalities who have passed away recently (Renamed)
red750 replied to onetrack's topic in General Discussion
I've been offline for most of the day, so you beat me with the report of Neil Sedaka. But there is a local one today. Lorraine Bailey, Grace Sullivan from the Aussie TV show The Sullivans, passed away today aged 89. A number of other TV and stage roles, and two Logies. -
Give a hoot, don't pollute.

Tell me one thing that hasn't got more expensive over time. -
In his State of The Union speech, which went for about an hour and three quarters, numb nuts claims his tariffs could virtually replace the need for income tax. Other clangers in recent speeches, he claims the highest popularity ratings of any modern president, and confused Bermuda for the Bahamas

Came across this online the other day. Designed for seniors, disabled, obese or pregnant, they are designed to extend your reach, Although they look pretty much the same, there are a number of models at a range of prices, from $15 to $50. There are lengths from 15.7 in to 23 in. I fit in a couple of the above categories (no, not the last one) so I thought I'd give it a try. Ordered from Amazon, but there are a number of other health care retailers who have advertised them. Bum wiper.

I understand the WD stands for Water Displacement.

Now they are calling for Charles to abdicate. William and Catherine to become king and queen. The article is behind aa paywall, so I don't know any more than that. https://www.dailymail.co.uk/debate/article-15580417/charles-abdicate-william-kate-andrew-epstein-MAUREEN-CALLAHAN.html

Apparently his protection personnel and staff at his home had a four letter nickname for him - it rhymed with stunt.
-
Like most Asian names, the surname come first. His father was KIM JONG IL (capitalised because upper case i and lower case L look the same in this font, ie, Il ). Kim is his surname, Un is his given name. Just like Xi Jinping's surname is Xi.
-
I'm sure all you funny guys know that Un is part of his name, Kim Jong Un. The title was copy/pasted directly from the article.
