There is no such a thing as too many books only not enough book shelves. Yes I read too much SciFi, and no i will not stop. I do have a dearth of women writers that I am trying to catch up on.

Just finished book 2 of James S.A. Corey's The Faith of Beasts. It was a lot easier to get through than the first book and thoroughly looking forward to the last in the series. #reading #scifi #booksky

Forgot to celebrate 2 years not smoking which allowed me to get quite a flash EV and haven't looked back. Now not giving money to tobacco and oil companies (Directly)

I managed to sneak a look at Jaws while folks were watching on video when abot 8 and boy did I have nightmares for a couple of years about sharks after that. I vaguely remember one where we were on a friends boat and tonnes of small sharks were chewing their way in through the hull

In honor of scary media month: what is the first piece of media you remember truly frightening you as a child?

Found the first book i ever bought myself with my own pocket money, really loved 20000 Leagues Under the Sea as a kid. I must have been about 9 and got it second-hand from the Mandurah Book Exchange

Only quibble here is the headline: the algal bloom was not "mysterious". It was another event exacerbated by climate change driven by burning fossil fuels. Government officials were also aware within the first months that hundreds of thousands of marine animals had been killed in the bloom.

A devastating and mysterious algal bloom that hit the coast of South Australia last year, killing more than 600 different kinds of marine life, inflicted such severe damage that a famed population of the giant Australian cuttlefish might not recover. Learn more: https://scim.ag/4rrVhbz

Ticketmaster can get in the bin. Bought cricket tickets for my mum and her friend because she has trouble using their God awful site and now my account need to be verified becuase of suspicious activity so I cant buy tix to the kids mass choir event unless I send govt id to Persona

Im guessing they are worried you can't pull off politically incorrect shows of the past these days with songs like "Rainbow Connection" and "Right where I belong" and that its not woke enough for these times.

There are currently no active conversations for a full ‘MUPPET SHOW’ series revival. Disney, The Muppets Studio and Point Grey Pictures have had difficulties with deciding on a premise for the series that they can all agree on. (Source: Deadline)

Maybe Anthropic, OpenAi, nVidia or those other shitty AI companies could help out here with their billion dollar investments but they won't cos they are shitty companies.

You know, honestly, more than monetary donations, if somebody worked at a company that had access to a lot of 18 terabyte and larger hard drives and could talk to us, that's where we are really suffering. The internet archive has no special priority in buying hard drives and those things are insane.

Marles does NOT speak for me. He has zero mandate to claim that Australians want closer ties and loss of sovereignty to the US military industrial complex. Tell Richard Marles to pack his bags and move to the US if HE wants closer ties with the demented IS regime. Leave us in peace, Dickie.

DEFENCE MINISTER Richard Marles has again declared that "we’re with the United States – there’s no question there." independentaustralia.net/politics/pol... Boot these bums out. Vote Green or ethical independent.

Installed Commodore OS on the old laptop and tbh the best thing about it, apart from look and nostalgia, is the borders are not zero pixel width, the cursor kind of snaps to them and you can easily adjust windows THE FIRST TIME. Everything is just working and impressed so far. More than a gimmick.
