I bought an old TEF-20 Ferguson tractor as a project, I got it running and it's been too useful to pull apart and restore. I love driving it

When I was a kid I heard The Go-Go's Our Lips Are Sealed as "Alex the seal".

Doesn't matter what they say

In the jealous games people play

Alex the seal

I thought it was about a sad bullied seal.

The term Mondegreen is itself a mondegreen.

Not a mondegreen, but I like to sing it as "Shark dressed man."

You are several orders of magnitude more likely to be killed by another human than an animal or insert in Australia.

Although sulforaphane research on cancer has been ongoing for many years, there is no good clinical evidence to indicate consuming sulforaphane-rich vegetables or dietary supplements provides any effect. Wikipedia

Hmm

It's obviously the one in the country I live in. All the others that I have had zero experience with are from Satan.

Nope, not even once. I find the idea of circumcision really bizarre.

I've been using GPT4All on my laptop and using mostly 7B models due to my RAM limitations and I am amazed how good some of them are.

It's been really easy to use. There are models you can download from within the UI or you can get adventurous and download them from elsewhere, they just need to be in the .gguf format. I get most from TheBloke on hugging face.

So far my favourite has been solar-10.7B-instruct-v1.0-uncensored, it has been astonishingly good.

Beekeeper here. Bees are really good at sniffing out honey. They will even find other hives and if it's abandoned or the other bees aren't watching very well they will steal their honey. Honey they can get from elsewhere is honey they don't have to make themselves.

I used to work for a company in Australia that packed ATMs. A busy ATM stocked with 50s and 20s usually would hold $340k. We also packed some for a casino that held 100s and 50s and they were often packed with $650k.

I had so many theories about the Bermuda triangle and the Mary Celeste disappearance... Then I got older and more sceptical and found out the Bermuda triangle is nothing special, just highly trafficked and the Mary Celeste mystery was largely fictionalized and nothing remarkable.

Works best in Australia

Back when google photos used to make videos of things you have done and taken lots of photos for, it made a video for me of a camping trip that prominently featured photos of a dead wild horse. Complete with confetti effects.

For when you just want to shoot the shit

I asked my locally hosted Qwen3 14B, it thought for 5 minutes and then gave the correct answer for the correct reason (it did also mention efficiency).

Hilariously one of the suggested follow ups in Open Web UI was "What if I don't have a car - can I still wash it?"

Looking at the design of those wheels I feel like there was thought and probably iteration there. Those long thick hubs to provide durability and stability using a material not really suited to the use case. The whole thing was probably able to be made fairly quickly. Quite impressive really.

I'm Australian, I hate the way our government treats our healthcare system and continues to make decisions in favour of companies and to the detriment of the Australian people, but holy hell is our system better than in the US.

Each time I read an article like this I'm glad to live here. This is never a decision we would need to make, we wouldn't even question going to the ER in a case like this.

Considering how much beef we export I don't understand why we would need to import any from anywhere.
