THE MORE I LEARN THE LESS I KNOW

Five years ago I seemed to know all sorts of things that I’m not so certain of now. While I did make quite a few accurate predictions back then, I probably wouldn’t have anticipated I’d end up saying that.

 

And watching some podcasts lately I’ve come to the conclusion that the longer they drag on for, the less worthwhile stuff is actually said. They used to typically be about 15 to 45 minutes long and that was plenty long enough. But now, many of them are going on for hours. If someone can’t say their piece in under an hour they are wasting everyone’s time.

Like a bunch of fat whales queuing up at McDonald’s for a big feed of shit, most of what we are getting served online is not doing us any good. It’s time for a better diet!

Here is a really good 26 minute podcast/audio where Amazing Polly totally nails it:

I just watched this and it was great to see someone online expressing this – what she says here is the point I’m up to myself, and I get the feeling she is for real in this one, because I recognize the tone of her voice!

Although personally I don’t trust Jim Carrey an inch, and I think “The Truman Show” was the illuminati doing one of their reveals (she doesn’t mention that part).

Another one of my wild speculations is that Jim Carrey played a CGI version of Joe Biden

I'VE ADDED AN ABOUT PAGE TO THIS BLOG

 And it even includes a contact email!

ABOUT

 Using the internet while displaying any sort of real identity online is a bit like walking down the street stark naked. I'd rather be completely anon, but I've been online for more than a quarter of a century and have revealed more than I can ever really take back now. But that is not to say I have to make things easy for "them" (the "government", or the deep state, or spammers, or stalkers) to track me down.

Until last week this blog has never had any sort of contact details on it, and I was going to leave it that way. But one of the other blogs I follow had added a link to my old www.frot.co.nz blog, which didn't work because of a typo. Being a bit of a completionist I wanted to let them know, but it was difficult to find a contact email on their blog. Eventually I did find a contact and emailed them.

Engagement used to be a big part of blogging, and back when I was posting on blockchains like Steemit, Hive (PeakD), Blurt, Flote, and Bastyon, I used to sometimes get hundreds of comments and I tried to reply to most of them.  These days I have all comments turned off and pretty much just ignore everyone. But the experience of trying to find a contact email on someone elses's blog made me grudgingly admit that it might be a good thing to include a one on this blog.

I've had a lot of problems with spam in the past so don't want to include an actual link, but I figure if I just put an image of an email address that comes to me (but not my daily driver) that should do the job. So here it is - just type out the address in this image:

SO THIS IS WHERE TESLA RIPPED OFF THE CYBERTRUCK FROM

 Just like the Tesla cyber truck, the 1980 Citroen Karin was a concept car that didn’t actually go and was never sold.

The Tesla cybertruck does appear to have some working versions, but the actual production and sale of them is a rabbit hole well worth checking out.

The 1980 Citroën Karin was a French concept car that looked like a pyramid spaceship on wheels.

When the Citroën Karin was first presented at the Paris Motor Show in 1980, it attracted the astonished gaze of visitors. It was quite unusual to see a futuristic sci-fi pyramid in a motor show, let alone a pyramid on four wheels.

The driver was able to control almost everything without letting go of the steering wheel. Small computers that controlled various functions were also placed in the door panels near the handles so that both the driver and passengers could reach them.

The real gem was on the dashboard, where a mini cathode-ray tube screen was there to display information about the road and the car.
