Good! I wasn’t up for trying anything new so I just went for the coffee flavour. Haven’t had gelato in ages so can’t really compare OVO to any other gelato atm.

I don’t mind. We used to do that in our old flat in Sydney.

I found a reference in Wikipedia (edit 3) so afaic my work here is done.

Edit 1: Oh fuck, it’s a circular reference. Dammit.

Trying to verify this. So far I found this but have not confirmed it’s legit in any way:

Edit 1: Laundry, Shooting At Venus, and Surviving Two Back-To-Back Ship Sinkings Part 1 | archive.org

Edit 2: Laundry, Shooting At Venus, and Surviving Two Back-To-Back Ship Sinkings Part 1 | Vuink - Repost of article found in Edit 1.

Edit 3: USS Langley (CV-1) | World War II

On the entry of the US into World War II, Langley was anchored off Cavite, Philippines.[5][19] On 8 December, following the invasion of the Philippines by Japan, she departed Cavite for Balikpapan in the Dutch East Indies. In the natural state of alarm (the attack on Pearl Harbor had happened the day before) 300 rounds were shot at an object in the sky before it was realized that it was the planet Venus.[20]

Edit 4: This detailed history of the ship does not mention anything about firing at Venus:

Silent Adelaide.

I went to check out the status of the Torres Strait Islander flag and ended up going down a bit of a rabbit hole in regards to the Australian Aboriginal flag:

The flag’s current legal status was debated in an Australian Senate estimates committee in mid‑February 2022, when it was also revealed that the Morrison government had paid $13.75m to Thomas to assume copyright, and also paid $6.3m to two non-Indigenous businesses which held licences to use the flag. These companies are WAM Clothing, which received $5.2m, and Wooster Holdings, which was paid $1.1m. Interests in both companies are held by Gold Coast businessman Ben Wooster, former director of Birubi Art (which was fined $2.3m in 2018 for selling fake Aboriginal art).

Double, triple, quadruple the spiciness.

Greece too.

Is that a eucalypt in the background?

Death, death to the IDF!

We ended up going to OVO. I still have a food coma but now I’m caffeinated to boot.

I don’t know. An earlier article linked in this article includes this:

An LJ Hooker branch this week admitted to using ChatGPT to write a listing for a rental in regional New South Wales, which erroneously advertised the house as being near two schools that didn’t exist.

…

The Australian Competition and Consumer Commission said businesses that used AI models to generate advertising material should ensure it is checked for any false, misleading or inaccurate information.

“Under the Australian consumer law businesses should not engage in false or misleading conduct in the supply of goods or services, this includes in advertising properties for sale or rent,” a spokesperson for the watchdog said.

So it may already be illegal but technically not fraud.

OP is @[email protected].

I see. Bummer.

@[email protected] that’s weird, my last post to this comm disappeared. I don’t even see it as deleted.

Done. Did not know I could add alt text to images with Voyager.

Hola 👋

Do you think it would be OK unpin this post?

Thanks for the heads up about My Kingdom. We’ll have to check it out. I need new boots. Beanie off today, hair flowing free.

Nam June Paik: Moon Is the Oldest TV is an entertaining documentary.

Ugh, I just remembered I now live a couple of blocks from a Bunnings. Gotta get keys cut so that’s probs best bet.
