... you chopped off my 2nd ' so you might enjoy it ' and the smile , thus removing the context of your 'quote' . Your images remind me of something . Do you know what my prime motive originally was for enrolling at Sydney Uni (aside from the free education policy ) ? It was because I loved the old buildings ( that some of these pictures remind me off ) So, of course , all my lectures where in a different type of 'new' building and surrounds ( that look like the other pictures ) # 'Old' architecture is fairly rare in Sydney ..... I imagine myself as some sort of student . chillin' out on the lawn and studying ........ something .. . .... and being'cool' . but instead I ended up in some post 60s experiment in brutalist architecture surrounded by no nature and next to a major feed road .... of course, that's all been fixed up now ..... [ We could run a similar thread on the development of Australian architecture .... something bad happened there post 70s as well ! ] Not a substitute at all ... an 'adjunct', perhaps . There is that 'nature of reality' question again Its also not like that now , as far as overall 'admissions' go .... here since the 80s women enrollments significantly outnumber men and regarding the 'white majority ' .... if you are indigenous , you are guaranteed a place ; Since 2024, all Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander students in Australia are guaranteed a Commonwealth supported place at a university of their choice for non-medical courses (and will be for medical courses from 2026). . When I enrolled my 'admission ticket' depended on two things then ; was 1. Australian citizen , 2. Over 28 . That was it . -

Yes . One of the original pop 'scientific' east meets west works ( conceptually ), so you might enjoy it . It isnt a good source to learn modern physics though .... so you might enjoy it . -
I'd love to know where it is too ! ..... Cobie's bookcase ?

Of course there was .... ... where did you think Menelek the First came from ?

No thanks ..... I prefer real women .

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". . -

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. -

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 ; -

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 .... -

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 ' -

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 ! '' -

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 . -
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

You think so ? .........

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 .
