A software developer (C#), a biker (VP of TOMCC), Physics nerd (BSc), likes board/rp games (TTRP), Hawkwind (PXR5), Abruzzo (IT), and is an international superstar (ok, maybe not). If you ride a motorcycle then you're ok in my book.

Sometimes the paint job outshines the bike. This is bradderz-r1m's R1M - in day-glo livery. Too bright or just right?

It's been stated that the Home edition will still be a one-time purchase. However, there aren't a lot of machines that have the required NPU at the moment.

I think the strategy is to control the world through the supply of oil.
Conflict in the middle east reduces a lot of that supply, pushes prices up, so the USA and Russia both then profit. Hence the anti-renewable energy rhetoric.

They also don't want to let him vote - considering he was born in Iraq.

Even I know that the war for independence began in 1775, with the revolution itself having started years earlier, and I'm not an American! The people who claim to be patriots usually know the least about their country.

In my experience, multi bike policies are good when your no claims is small, but in the long run it's cheaper (and more flexible) to have separate policies.

There's where you went wrong... 'used' to ride motorcycles... two wheels frees the soul.

There should be a way for the citizens of a country to trigger a vote of confidence in their leader - which if it fails triggers an election.

Causing harm to those who don't do what you want them to (or think that they should) is the domain of the selfish and the bullies.

Putin won't stop until either Ukraine is under his control, or there is a pro-Putin government in power. After pro-Putin Yanukovych fled following protests and Turchynov was appointed, Russia invaded Crimea.

People seem to believe things they read more than they believe what they are told.

Ah - now that's a different thing completely. How much would you trust the bloke down the pub to give you the low-down on why there must be an infinite number of prime numbers? That's where I consider AI to be.

Yet, none of them are making your content for you. 🙂

AI is really just paraphrasing what it has found and trusted on the web, it from other sources depending on the AI.

Oman says something different, and the missile tracks back them up. Don't believe everything you read.

Everyone learns from something, or someone (which is probably more apt with AI). Would you say made using Google Search or YouTube if that's where you learned?

Of course... if you just want two wheels to just get around and enjoy the UK countryside, then a simple commuter bike will do, such as this Honda CBF600. #motosky #motorcycle #bikesky.#bikersky #motorbike #honda #cbf600

I think it's quite straightforward. If you use AI to make an artwork then it is made using AI. If you use an AI to learn or train, or do preparatory sketches, but the cartoon is done by yourself then it is not made using AI.

AI is just a tool. If it sparks up one day, without being prompted, and says 'hey, look at this cartoon I've made" then you could say that AI made the cartoon. Otherwise, it is you who had the idea and used whatever tools you had to produce the work.

Iran have attacked Oman.

When drones or missiles are launched, you can determine where they were launched and what their target is, using simple maths.

If the US attacks from Kuwait, is Oman a viable target?

Or better... if you use a set of paints and an easel to create a painting, has the set of paints and the easel created the painting?

If you visit a teacher to learn how to draw, has that teacher made your drawing?

So, you'd rather UK citizens and people in uninvolved countries get killed instead? The right thing isn't always popular.

I think the RW media would say whatever they can to discredit Labour.

That just backs up what I said. The UK had not attacked Lebanon, and the US hadn't either. Lebanon (or Hezbollah) can't claim retaliation for striking first.

I'm saying that the RW press would have criticised him for supporting an illegal war.had he supported the US from the start.

It's literally the definition of retaliation. If someone hasn't done anything to you and you attack them, you can't claim retaliation.
