That’s how I felt here in the UK when I woke up to see the majority voted for Brexit. Before that I thought people can’t be that dumb. Apparently they can.

Imagine an AI with a model trained exclusively on a specific set of medical books, the same set of books all doctors have access to already. While there’s still room for error it would guide the doctor to a very familiar reference. No internet junk, social media, etc.

Exactly as you say. It’s a tool, not a replacement. Certainly not in healthcare anyway.

For the last few years we go on holiday to Wales and stay in the ‘nothing’ zone. I don’t get how people live there without going insane. Lovely to visit but I wouldn’t want to live there.

We stayed at a campsite once which promoted being off the grid, the facilities were actually the best over ever seen. To get a phone signal it was 15min drive away. Off the grid was nice but planning the next day events was a bit difficult. Kind of shows how reliant we are on technology for basic map reading. Not sure how I feel about that.

Sumfin. How’s how we say it.

They must have glands. Unless they have milk for blood.

PICNIC. Problem in chair, not in computer.

Anything north of Southampton is considered north for us.

There’s still a bit of graffiti around which is on the same page as that so I can believe it!

I have a work phone on O2 and it’s shockingly poor in my area. Strong 4G+ signal but so slow it’s unusable. I assume it’s over subscribed or an issue with the nearby masts.

I have Three ony personal phone. This is good where I live but move towards the town centre it grinds to slow speed despite being a strong signal.

It really does feel like there’s just too many devices and not enough capacity for them.

Separate note. I read somewhere (and I forget where) that a high number of 5G masts are being rejected planning permission by pressure put on by local residents. It’s something mad like 90% are denied. There was one planned right next to where I lived but people started putting up posters about it looking ugly. The public notices disappearee so I assume the residents won. The location was right next to a roundabout and close to a railway. I really doubt it would make a different to their view.

Blimmin heck! Appreciate the effort in digging that photo up! It doesn’t sound like the same place though.

I’ve done a similar journey in the past and there’s places to stop everywhere. Even in a jungle in north Sulawesi at night, middle of no where, some fella selling durian in a cabin next to a dirt road.

This is covering a few experiences across Indonesia. We stopped at a frozen food shop which had 2 lions in small cages. Stopped at a private collector to see the world’s smallest primate (which I can’t remember the name of now) to find chimpanzees in cages bearly large enough to hold them. Driver stopped at a village which was ravaged by a volcano and people rebuilding their houses, asked if we wanted to stop to take pictures. Asked if we want to visit a wet market selling dog meat. Mid 2000’s, driver asked if we wanted to stop by at the scene of the Bali bombings for photos. Went to a turtle sanctuary to find them baking in bad conditions. Went to a coral reef to find some of the worse plastic pollution I’ve personally seen. Don’t even start me on Jakarta! Although that pace is improving in recent years

Place is crazy. Total lack of consideration for animals and people, unless religion or culture is involved, then the rules are strict. I got in trouble once for handing money over with my left hand.

Totally different to what I’m used to! Place is nuts.

Do you remember where in Indonesia that was? I visited one near Bandung not realising what this coffee actually was. Bit like you I left without trying or buying. The place was a visitor centre and we weren’t allowed to look at the actual farm.

I was in Bandung in Indonesia earlier this year. We visited one of these places not realising what it was. The visitor centre had a bunch of cages which weren’t small but I wouldn’t say large enough for the size of the animal. We asked if we can see the actual farm. He said it was the largest farm so we asked to see it. Nope, not allowed.

They’re also on a strict diet. I wouldn’t be surprised if the ones not on display are force fed.

I also liked it. I enjoyed it more than the hobbit movies.

I know somebody who does this and accidentally racked up a £3,500 phone bill while on holiday. He was accidentally using the wrong SIM for data.

I have two phones. A personal one and one provided by my company. I like being able to turn off my work phone when on holiday, etc and keep my personal life separate.

I do know a lot of people who sold their personal phones when given a work phone and use it for both. Saves some money I guess but no thanks.

I also know people who have two phones but install all the work apps on their personal phones to make it easier for them. No thanks!

That was a really interesting video and made me look at myself a lot. Recently my doctor put me on medication for anxiety. I never realised how badly it was affecting me, and like this video explains, I was looking for reasons to explain to myself why I was feeling wrong which self perpetuated the feeling. The worse part is while I didn’t understand why, I did recognise that I need to stop focusing on the bad stuff but I couldn’t break out of the cycle.

And there’s only a 50% chance of that.

Greg’s also have placed on industrial estates, motor ways, town centres, etc. They’ve made it so anybody can easily access them. I can’t even think of any prets near where I live. Probably is but perhaps it blend into the background.

Same for me. If I feel a sneeze coming on I look at a bright light to hurry it up. I thought this was normal but appetite isn’t.

The hospital provide birth certificates on your country? Here it is the registry office and they do it with the parents present.
