You are lucky. It is stunning in that part of the world. It is theorised that Islam is actually a continuation of ancient moon worship. You see the imagery in a lot of Islamic art – e.g on mosques and Turkey flag. Their calendar. Make sense as they travelled at night. (BTW don’t mention that to any Muz -they don’t like it)

I don’t think they are loons.
Ran into someone from my old parish who was also wearing a mask a while back, I asked him why he was wearing one.

Anyway, the battery will need replacing in eight years. Imagine selling a petrol car with a sticker saying it will need a $10k repair less than a decade after you buy it.
An Aussie who collected their Tesla after ordering it has recieived a nasty shock just two weeks later.
Jason C from the Sunshine Coast said he ordered a Model Y RWD for $60,900 plus on-roads.
Two weeks later he spotted a price drop of $5000 to $55,900 for the same deal.
“What’s going on?” he asked. “Elon and his company aren’t endearing themselves to customers. Resale’s going to be a nightmare when we sell it.”
Car advice columnist Iain Curry said Telsa prices have been on a rollercoaster
“The Model Y RWD reached peak selling price of $72,300 in June 2022; it was $69,300 in May 2023, and a year later is now $13,400 cheaper,” he said in response to Jason’s dilemma.
“Not great news for you: yours has basically shed an extra $5k overnight. Even the most hardcore Tesla-owning loyalist won’t be happy, and you’re doubtless fuming.
“There’s been heavy EV discounting this month: Peugeot’s e-2008 is down $25,000 and the Nissan Leaf down over $10,000, both now $39,990 drive-away.”

Let’s take a stroll back to 1979 when the young, then “new left,” Phillip Adams wrote this extremely critical hit piece on an a new Australian movie out on screens:
The movie was: Mad Max (and whether you like it or not, its hard to think of another movie that only cost $400K and went onto make over $100M in 1979 terms).
Lesson: Wrongologists don’t change.
With all the fuss about CSIRO’s new report bull shitting about renewables being cheap and wonderful and nuclear as dear as blackout’s snot samples but leaving out the necessary renewable infrastructure and back up and their intermittency and unreliability I recall an earlier CSIRO report saying the renewable poles and wires would cost a trillion.

Very interesting this stuff. Kamala isn’t budging. Joe is visibly getting worse and worse, yet he’s not going anywhere either. Which suggests he has a huge file of dirt on Democrats amassed over fifty years, that they appear to be terrified of.

How astounding that they were being kept under an UNRWA building and the UN didn’t know about it. Weird huh?
No debate here, my view of the matter; if nature provides it, keep it.
Be it by design or evolution, it must have a purpose.

Brittany Higgins accused of ‘co-publishing’ tweet defaming Linda Reynolds originally solely blamed on fianceRebecca Le MayThe West Australian
Fri, 24 May 2024 5:49PM
Brittany Higgins is being accused of collaborating with her fiance over an allegedly defamatory social media post he made, potentially expanding Senator Linda Reynolds’ case against her.
At a pre-trial conference late on Friday, Senator Reynolds’ lead lawyer Martin Bennett said his team had last week obtained WhatsApp messages between Ms Higgins and David Sharaz discussing a tweet on January 27 last year.
The messages, secured through the process known as “discovery”, were essentially “You’ve got more followers, you put it on yours”, Mr Bennett said.
He said the alleged collaboration made Ms Higgins a “joint publisher” of the tweet, which has since been taken down and was originally attributed solely to Mr Sharaz.
“There was a discussion whose Twitter account was a better one to post it on and that indicates that they weren’t acting independently of each other,” Mr Bennett told reporters outside court.
“The law in Australia, confirmed by the High Court in (Dylan) Voller’s case, is that if you participate in any way in the publication of a defamation … then you were liable as a co-publisher.
“We’re now suggesting to the judge to bring it in, in Ms Higgins’ proceedings rather than Mr Sharaz’s.”
That started waaay back in 2015, and was subsequently confirmed in the 2017 Gen cost report.
Since then, whoever at CSIRO who was responsible for this wicked misinformation and disinformation has been sent for reeducation, and Arts/Law Top Men from AEMO have been brought in to the GenCost process to ensure proper rigor and correctness.
Now:
Technological innovation: the Expert’s friend. The same Superpower that allows the 2023/24 GenCost to rigorously shit-can nuclear on the basis that, done in Australia, it would [pluck] cost three times the recent South Korean experience. Because rigorous. And Expert.
I’m on the road at the moment, and unfortunately can’t conveniently give the link.

Aspiring rapper?
Isn’t he in jail?
Posted earlier about finding trespassers, squatting in a vacant house, on a property someone else happens to own. THEY are trespassing, yet I have to speak nicely to them, ask them “Pretty please, to pack up and leave,” and get a court order to have them evicted…
Insufficient.
The minimum official qualification for aspiring rapperdom is death by stupid misadventure – preferably under circumstances that suggest potential of massive compensation for grieving relatives.

I could well imagine what’s going on at Media Matters. Musk is suing them for lying in an attempt to hurt his business – X. In order to defend themselves they had to hire a law firm. The fee vig would be eating into their bank balance is a huge way and that vig has to either be coughed up, monthly in advance, or as soon as the invoice is sent out. It’s not cheap.
Had the great pleasure of playing football today with my son. Bit sore but loved every minute.
