Yep snake of a man in football, but outside seems to be an ok bloke. ...Sorry, I'll wash my mouth now. Temporary insanity.
Nah, I’ve got a grip of myself. He’s just acting fun for the cameras. #bitter #neverforget #w4nker #skateb4stard
Just watched the Dr Who episode Arachnids in the UK... Bit of a crap ending tbh. Spoilers but given that it was first shown about 4 weeks ago, anyone who would probably watch it has probably already done so... ... ... So at the end, not-Donald Trump shoots the big mother spider while the other spiders are locked in his panic room where they'll eventually grow uber big and suffocate to death, wtf? Either that or starve to death unless they turn cannibalistic. Sorry but not-Donald Trump was right, shooting them would have been far more humane.
When my wife said she was leaving because of my obsession with the Monkess, I though she was joking..... .....and then I saw her face.
Okay 'Arry, your debt is now paid. That was grim. Especially when he pulled a peter storrie from his ear at the end!
https://news.sky.com/story/nasas-vo...ar-space-11-billion-miles-from-earth-11577344 Voyager 2 enters interstellar space 41 years after launch and will take 300 years to reach the Oort cloud....and 30,000 more years to pass through it. At that point it will be considered to have left our solar system. I find it impossible to grasp the size of the Universe...I am sometimes reluctant to drive from Newport to Ryde.
I don’t think it’s just you...who would want to go to Ryde!? Full of Pompey supporters. No, but seriously, I don’t think the human mind can comprehend the vast endlessness of space. My little mind just has an existential crisis if I try and think about it.
I am fascinated by the advances in science since Voyager left Earth...it is primitive compared to the average car key (or something like that) and should have stopped working decades ago, but luckily Voyager doesn't know this and just carries on bumbling along. And scientists on Earth are able to keep switching the transmitters on and off over the vast distance of space.
Yep it took off in 1977, so the tech on board is really 1970. Incredible if you think the advances in tech since then. I find that almost as mind blowing as the vastness of space. When I was a kid, Pluto was a planet and apparently all the stars we saw were the Universe. Now we know that those stars are just part of a 'small' galaxy and there are billions more galaxies out there in the universe. As I say, incredible.
Just think, I use 4 x £9 Raspberry Pi Zeros for presence detection as part of my home automation system. Each one of those is about 5 or 6 times more powerful than the Apollo 11 computers and more powerful (computing wise) than the two voyagers. [The presence detection works flawlessly btw and triggers off various automations around the home depending on time of day and previous status. My favourite is when the dogs want a wee or poo in the middle of the night, all I have to do is pick my phone up from the wireless charger, walk to the top of the staircase with it and it sets off an automation that turns on the lights for my 'path' to the back door so I can see, disarms the house alarm and turns on the garden lights. When I go back to bed and put the phone back on the charger, it turns off all the lights, ensures the thermostat is set to a low level (It may have been triggered by me walking downstairs) and arms the house alarm ]
