About that interface you mentioned. Sometimes even that technology fails. Then an Abt rack will do the job!

Cool place to hang out in Sydney, if you time it right! This is General Holmes Drive as you enter the tunnel under the runway. Better than actually flying in a Qantas A380 actually, which are rather dated and tatty inside, even in business class #planes www.facebook.com/airwaysmagaz...

You can take them into cafes, too, provided they sit on the underside of a chair or table...

Literally the Raised Bread equations! If you integrate them you can extract the (rather short) half-life of a sourdough roll, dripping with cultured butter and dunked in a bowl of minestrone!

Welcome! Lots of mathematics here, too. Interesting mathematics has been practised in Australia for thousands of years, systematic knowledge and use of those clockwise (and anticlockwise) vortices being a case in point.

I encountered a lollipop lady facilitator yesterday. Admittedly that was at Melbourne airport T1 and the intermodal crossing was between arrivals and the car rental booths under the Parkroyal. But it does suggest a no-tech solution to that despairing tram/train to bus stop fail across busy road.

Wonder if they've got the pie floater. That traditional SA special is... almost ok

The OK PIE SHOP, Mount Gambier. Fair enough.
I like it. The pies are just ok. No hype, no frills. I'll give it a go tomorrow! #food #pies

Physics takes a moment to sit in the sun.

Why not rent out heavenly apartments while you're still on Earth? Used to be called selling indulgences

Not particularly. Why? #Parasites #BritishAristocracy

More #circles put together to form a sphere, this time in Marrakech a couple of years ago. #MathPhoto25.

There's a kind of rage I have for these stories that is beyond words for me. And please, please, please remember that while not every woman you know experienced an Epstein or a Trump, every woman you know, and a heartbreaking number of the girls, has experienced some kind of sexual assault.

Ha ha! There you go! You know more than you think about cars! Now let us start on the shapes of plane noses and aerofoils. The Airbus A380 –

Cars that are quite different in shape can have the same badge, and cars that have similar shapes can have different badges. That is what they absorb! They begin to learn that mathematics is a classification science (among other things, which they learn later).

That is a gap in your early childhood education. On city walks and drives I tell my grandchildren 'Ooh you gotta learn and spot all the different car badges. Big Uncle K says so'. And they do! Peace reigns in the back seat. They then hoovered up all plane, train, bus, and truck names and shapes.

A very good alternative, too. Let's have it!
Schrödinger is endlessly celebrated, elevated, mythologised in social media and textbooks for the young. He was a scumbag. Do people even care about his child victims? Their broken lives and dreams? How the effects propagate for generations? Bury him.

Cats! Typical! The next room has to be surveyed at length from the entrance for friends or foe *every single time* 🙂 He is a sweetie and definitely not associated with Schrödinger, who was a well-known and documented serial pedophile

Two pieces of blue wire each bent into the shape of a hand with five fingers and a hook to use as a hanger for gloves.

Awesome @monsoon0.bsky.social ! So pleased for you!

This giant of the forest really ought to trim its toenails

The tour train does a roaring trade on weekends, tho

Lordy what an outsized grandiose wedding-cake folly Dunedin railway station is! What on earth were they thinking? That thousands of passengers would jostle and queue at those ticket windows every day and crowd onto half-hourly trains to... where?

The Ticket Window. Here is a bloody beauty for my forthcoming photo exhibition on this rare and endangered feature of railway architecture – a triplet! Dunedin station, NZ Aotearoa.

Oh that could work out well. Most people leave their phone in the car when they pull over and dash out to the public loo, but 'roos keep their phones in their pouch
