OV9

The Odyssey well cast, well acted, well filmed, quite enjoyable.
I'll have to go read the book
One or two dodgy special effects that were minor nitpicks.
But for Anne Hathaway I forgive all.

RIP

Hunt for the Wilder people is another great one.

Back onto Event Horizon I watched a YouTube video a while ago that there was an even more extreme horror cut planned and partially shot but got squished by Hollywood. The original had more than enough gore for me.

Aeropress makes great coffee, had mine since 2012 and replaced the rubber piece once. Was my twice daily caffeine supply for years before work got an espresso machine but if I feel like a Long black (Americano?) I'd still use the press. Have also taken it camping.

Esteemed company we keep on this humble forum
Congratulations.

Went about two and half hours drive out of the city last weekend. Absolutely freezing but lovely clear midwinter skies. One of the best views of the Milky Way and Great Emu I've ever had. Fortunately there was a tripod handy so setup my Pixel 9 Pro up and it went into an automatic astrophotography ...

I watched it mainly because I really enjoyed Matt's book "Humble Pi", the math's is far far above anything I want to put the effort in to trying to understand but I think Matt's conclusion that beyond being an exceptional search engine LLMs do seem to be doing something interesting and maybe ...

Either tariffs or a threat to invade Congo.

At some point the AI will get revenge, but hopefully not soon.

Disclosure Day

Just back from watching this

Really enjoyed it

I'm a sucker for these aliens kind of films, but two and a half hours went by very quickly and I thought it was an entertaining film


Same - just got back.

Just lacked any flair for me. Take out Blunt and Firth and I'd have ...

Has been interesting listening to a few Evo podcasts (they'd kinda passed me by until venerable forum member Robinoz reminded me that Catchpole is always worth listening to). Anyway, they recently chatted about Restomods vs Supercars and one key difference was that for similarly HUGE sums of money ...

This one. AI alleges there are 200 of the things crushing..... everything on the road.

The big SUVs there are pick up truck chassis based. Escalade, Expedition, Tahoe, Durango…


Semi-truck? 🫤



I used to have a "Cars of the world" book with a Yank semi based SUV and I even more.vaguely think one may have turned up in Clarkson's World.

Google search turns up nothing but slop ...

A P1 with the wick turned up plus an appendix of a hybrid system to disguise turbo lag. Snore.

Harry's Whyrah R Evo Type-RS Evo thing sounded flipping incredible even if it's probably slower against the clock.

Kids saw Supergirl and we're scathing.

Unexpected delight was The Sheep Detectives which had an excellent cast and voice cast. Talking sheep have no right to punch with that level of emotional weight. Memorable.

Over your dead body all over the place and too long. Once it commited to gore comedy ...

Kragle madness.

Oh, also, he's finally gonna get himself on one of those lists of notable people.

What's funny/sad is that the fastest production car was the new mega Corvette. But the onboard footage is practically snoozeworthy and it's more than a minute faster than the iconic Climb Dance.

Legal Eagle have put out another video on the BAM & Co saga referencing Coffeezilla's work and whilst I had it on a 2nd screen the takeaway seems to be that BAM have completely shot their legal case to bits by making public statements that contradict their legal complaint of extortion by the other ...

Not sure what Valve has to do with Lego - isn't that an online game store?


Its an example of Coffeezilla's investigative work in a previous comment you already replied to. Valve are a billion dollar game company who wisely did not sue Coffeezilla when he exposed their shady side.

If you want ...

New franchisee arrives with a truck and that’s suspicious? Really? This is why I’m not watching it - it’s speculation and conspiracy for engagement.


Yes, in the context of missing property, initially lying about it, then when presented with photographic evidence creating the most ridiculously ...
