  1. So, whats your idea or theory on that ..... why was 70s so special ( aside from the flares ) OR what happened since the 70s ? Dont tell me we hit that point again ! ; Lord Kelvin ; '' "There is nothing new to be discovered in physics". .

    Sudden 30C temperature rise over Antarctica upends Australia's spring outlook https://www.abc.net.au/news/2025-09-26/weather-pattern-could-disrupt-australia-for-months/105817572 .
  3. I would not count that as any great advance in science ... Montauk Chair Item number: MTK-CHR-000 The Montauk is a versatile chair that evokes a feeling of warmth and family. This chair has its roots in mid-century style, with a stunning walnut wood frame. The Montauk would be perfectly placed in front of a roaring fireplace or in a cosy lakeside home.
  4. No . Many human groups throughout history manage their environment so THEY can thrive ( at the far end result ) and still not consider any pyramids with them at the top . I realize this mat be an unpopular opinion ... like some seem to think native peoples ( eg the Australian Aboriginal ) cared for their environments for 'the sake of it ' .... ( actually there is no 'for the sake of it ' .... except for some modern idealists living in a technological environment ... that has already messed up the local environment and ecology . ) I would say interested in what they can do for us and their own sake Until its dinner time Superior ? I wasnt suggesting any concepts of superiority here . Agreed ... accept , I think it might be a bit obvious that we are a 'special case' , as far as animals go ( 'mental case' included ) . [ I saw some dumb arse nature doco the other night about 'unusual' whale behavior ... they posed the question '' Are they doing this for .... fun ! ? Do animals do things for fun ? '' Dumbarsedoco concluded they probably do . Too judgmental, so I went back ... and didnt like the way the bitch said 'hello ' ... okay then actually I am going to go back and listen to her say hello ...... Oh yeah .... what a bitch You would end up with an existential horror ;
  5. But your 'UFO digest' IS in the public domain .
  6. It would cover cats as they have been a human companion for some time and may actually have effected human ( and cat ) 'evolution ' ( at least socio-culturally ) - similar to how one can not really study the 'development' of humans without the dog, 'cattle' horse .... and beetles ? Well, humans eat them, use them and some even understand their role in keeping a healthy environment ( for humans ) . So .... is she still a 'bitch ' ? Oh damn them ! let's just have fun with a 'beautiful theory' and forget all that proof stuff ! There 'are ' two types of 'strings' (of course ; a yin one and a yang one ) one is a regular string with a middle and two ends ( now we are getting into my 3:4 theory ) and the other, the ends meet forming a loop or circle . AND I can 'prove' it because we can observe this in everyday life and objects : eg ....
  7. Yeah but them TR3-B Triangles spew mercury and black gravity out their exhaust pipes !
  8. Those that dont care because ...... '' I got an electric scooter ! '' (not only that , its shaped like a ball ! ) So not just 'fitting ''G' in '' ? You know .... anthropology 'fits' all that in ..... except for physics ( without stretching things too far ) . I can imagine if that 'science' existed and it was anthropology, the deterrent would be ; ' does this help humans to thrive healthily and holistically ? .... as a real anthropology would conclude things 'overall', not just the current , 'all ruling' , econo-rationalist , developmental expansionist bullshit, viewpoint . I think the toaster might be turned on now . .... he was not 'just a naughty boy '
  9. I think 'naturalness' for us is contained within 'size range ' When we get to the 'microscopic ' ( and beyond ) or the 'telescopic ' ( ie. astrophysics ..... the very small and the very large .... things get 'bendy' ; just like they do with the VERY hot or very cold . ) - I think most will not care though ..... '' I got an electric scooter ! ''
  10. It looks like someone else has realized that a lot of contemporary science 'theories' were made up so as to be able to 'solve' difficult equations . ' I know .... if I postulate 'multiple universes ' , the answer might lie 'out there somewhere' . Meanwhile, any Charlie and his dog will be using 'multi universes ' as any lame excuse ( especially the mentally disturbed will like that one ) . Anyway, good on her for 'coming out' ..... Maybe there is another Universe exactly identical to this one , except you have a mustache in it ..... now thats science ! I wish she would talk more about the 'failure ' of super symmetry ( and putting ' G' on the other side of the 'equation for everything ' ) .... ahhh, the good ol days when I could talk on here to Brain about that stuff .
  11. Life in the computer

    But they are not the type of games you play are they ? Oh yes ... those computer games will 'sharpen' you mind .... and might even relieve your boredom , but there is another side to it ... Life IN the computer ; Internet gaming disorder (IGD) is a diagnosis included in the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders, 5th edition, text revision (DSM-5-TR). Though it’s a recognized mental health condition, the inclusion of IGD in the DSM-5-TR is still heavily debated, as some experts believe that it’s a condition with features similar to addictive disorders. As in other substance use conditions, gaming in IGD may trigger your brain’s reward system, creating a cycle of addictive behaviors. IGD also often occurs with depression, hostility, and social anxiety. Escapism The use of virtual worlds to escape is aptly called escapism, which has links to both positive and negative psychological outcomes. Like many things, too much escapism can become problematic. Data from a 2021 meta-analysis suggested that excessive escapism can lead to depression and addictive gaming behaviors.

    Hmmmm ... after a converse with AI .... and numerous corrections to it and continually trying to make things clear and circumventing its circular arguments .... it seems to be suggesting that when water hits the puffballs and pools around them ( but NOT over the holes ) the agitation releases spores out of the holes into the air and the watering traps them and takes them into the pooled water , where they expand ( or something, this part was unclear ) as a ( gas? ) cloud , and form a bubble. The process can be so volatile that it appears the water is bubbling or boiling . It seems to be suggesting that the spores themselves carry some sport of super dispersal mechanism and it isn't just the puff ball contracting and squirting them out physically ??? YET , when I search '' do puffball spores have a special dispersal mechanism AFTER they ejected from the puffball ? '' the answer is no, its mechanical release and wind dispersal . Thats the thing about a garden or nature ..... 60 years on , still observing 'new' phenomena

    Well at least ; thankyou for not trying to convince me it is puffball fungus , like others have . I am well familar with them and this is acting NOTHING like they do . Hmmm ... there is a visitor here that studies soil science .... I might visit them with my film .
  15. Stranger things

    I have had this garden in this spot for pver 30 years and never seen this before :This morning I am watering pot plants , I water a native tree fern in a pot , nothing different about it except on the surface of the pot dirt sits a small seed tray with some young lithop succulents ( 'stone plants ' ) , I watered it with a water can and steam rose up . Maybe the black pot was hot from the sun ? But no , as soon as I stopped poring water the 'steam stopped' . Looking closer there is a fungus on the top of the earth and next to the plastic seed tray , a cluster of little spheres that look like tiny 'puff balls' with a small open top . After a few experiments ( pouring water from water can and then stopping pouring, in cycles ) it seems that the soil around the fungus is bubbling and gassing with grey bubbles that burst open and release the steam / gas ? . It looks like steam as, as it rises, it vaporizes and is gone . Its 'boiling' pretty vigorously like a chemical reaction.But as soon as I stop pouring, the bubbling stops , even though there is a pool of water around the fungus before it seeps into the ground . Pour water on it starts bubbling and gassing again . I went through 1/2 a watercan ( around 5 lt ) dousing it and stopping , refilled and used another half can on it over about 6 pours , 1 pour about 3 lt in one go . It gassed all the way through that as well . I assumed it was a spore release triggered by rain , but it does not seem so, the water on the soil is boiling vigorously .. but only when the water is being poured on it .I filmed it .... no one seems to know what is going on.Anyone know what this is ?

    and what will we do to spend our time when we have ' life in the computer ' ? We will devote ourselves to 'games' of killing each other , of course ; .
  17. Life in the computer

    No thanks . I dont need my chair to float around the room nor live in a quasi - Escher unnatural computer glitched botch job . But thats just a matter of taste in personal surrounds ... my preference is a natural cabin in the forest built to my specific preferences;; lots of glass and glass doors to let the light and air in and my vision out . A fireplace of course . Lining is various local hardwoods and decorative timber with some rock sections . 1930-40 style simple furniture mostly from Aussie red cedar . A color scheme based on browns and deep muted reds/maroons . A sumptuous bed with pearl and wood inlays of a satyr playing a pipe and covered in a thick deep dark red crumpled velvet spread . An outside fire bath in the forest and an elevated 'wet room' with space to dance under the shower that is fitted with a water pressure booster and runs through a gas heater . Indoor plants , rugs and fish tank ( with a light behind it so at night the fish, interior bubbles and plants cast moving shadows on the walls and ceiling ) . No 3-D printed house for me ... thats ACTUALLY what the future will hold for building ; .
  18. I think I am in a body formed from the environment around me due to that have become a thinking feeling entity in this environment and that this environment is but a small part in the 'body' of the Universe and that I am co-creating ..... but on a very very tiny insignificant level ... compared to the Whole . But I am happy with that ( I dont like to accept responsibilities )
  19. What made YOU laugh today/tonight ?
