That thumbnail... AI generated background, poorly cut out picture of Albo with the crust and a squished picture of Madeleine King that looks like it was taken 20 years ago.

Brilliant

The one side effect of Ozempic no one talks about

That's a weird thing to say for him. I mean, most of the time someone says "AI Slop" it isn't targeted at any of Microsoft's products.

Not yet anyways.... can you guys get a better CEO already?

Never had any luck with those to say the least...

Remember when you activated software with a key on the back of the CD case?

America first, unless it's too much of a hassle

I mean, it's obviously just gonna be a rebranded budget phone by a Chinese brand like Ulefone or Umidigi, like that "Freedom Phone" by that crypto-fuckface, whatever his name was. I don't know why anyone is still bothering to report on this.

Kinda fascinating how they manage to cram RTX GPUs in there, don't know how practical it is given the obvious constraints in battery life and cooling but eh. If the new models are anything like the current models they'll even have decent I/O (minus the ethernet port grumble grumble)

If they offered an AMD version with a dedicated AMD GPU I'd even be half interested. But not really, my ThinkPad P14s is gonna serve me very well for the next 10 years or so.

What's 2026 like?

Edit: A bit boring, as it turns out

Looks more like a cove imo

Near West Head, Sydney. Sorry for the crappy photo, I had to zoom in quite a bit.

Super cool location, felt pretty unreal actually being there... shame you can't go inside any more

Edit: Seems like they made a new website for it! I hope they can turn it around somehow

Before you say something, I am aware now that cashew nuts aren't that good for them (too fatty) and that you probably shouldn't feed them at all.

I went to the Lagoon that morning specifically to feed a cocky and I did... as well as about a dozen ducks. I'm sorry, I won't do it again.

 

Sat there for 20+ minutes just taking it all in

 

Saw some people posting random pictures lately, figured I might as well join in. This was near Wollundry Lagoon in Wagga

 

First of all, sorry if this really isn't the right spot for this but I figured that maybe some Aussies in here recognise it.

I've had this stuffed frilled-neck lizard since roughly 2006 when a family member brought it back from Australia for me, I know for sure that my brother had a stuffed dinosaur with a similar design on it. According to the tag it was hand made in Australia by "Kurrajong Aboriginal Products". A quick search brought me to a company with the same name that sells child education books and hand made dolls, so the connection is kinda there but I can't be sure; they don't sell stuffed animals (anymore). I'd really like to know if anyone has seen these or even has one.

Here's some pictures I took of it.

When I was in Australia myself a while ago I searched for similar things but couldn't find anything. Even the museum shops I went to only seemed to sell generic Chinese-made stuff, which really is a shame but anyway...

 

I just came back from a 6 week trip to Australia; spending time with my relatives (some of whom I've never met before or haven't seen in 20 years) and I had a really really really great time. Everyone was so welcoming and just appreciative; I was really overwhelmed by how amazing the whole experience was.

On my flight back I was crying the whole time; I never felt like that before and just couldn't handle my emotions (much to the dismay of the people sitting next to me). Most of all I just didn't wanna return to my dysfunctional family in Germany. It's been my goal to move to Australia for some time now but after this experience I'm determined to move as soon as possible. It's gonna take a lot of figuring stuff out and it won't be easy but I'll make it work.

Just wanted to get that out there I guess.

Edit: if someone happens to have a few tips and pointers for me regarding my plans they would be greatly appreciated

 

Does anyone know how to order or configure the P14s G5 AMD with a OLED display on the German Lenovo site?

The OLED display seems to be NA exclusive apart from a few overpriced offers from third party sites...
