Yes glued. I knew that. I blame the heat
Being lazy is bad; unless you still get what you want, then it's called "patience".

I don't believe you. you just glowed a tangerine bellybutton (? don't know the right term lol) to a rock hah

Perhaps the word is "stem"?

Though I like the phrase "glowed a tangerine bellybutton". Sounds like something one would experience on LSD.  :D

:D

Tangerine Bellybutton would be a great name for an acid rock band.

Might steal that and use it for a beer name.

There's been tests with self driving buses in one of the outskirts here in Vienna. The buses are small, with a traveling speed of 12 kph.

There was an accident this week: a young woman, wearing headphones, looking at her cellphone, stepped into the road without checking for traffic. The bus couldn't stop in time. The woman was lightly bruised in the leg.

As a result, the whole test is put on hold and is being reevaluated.  :rolleyes:

Well, you're always going to have careless people. So it's a matter of seeing if the self-driven bus is behaving worse than a human driver in this situation.

Another one of my cats was diagnosed with cancer.  I noticed earlier in the week that her mouth was swollen so I take her in thinking it was an abscess tooth.  Mouth cancer.  Cancer has spread quickly and there is no way to save her. :(
I've given it serious thought. I must scorn the ways of my family, and seek a Japanese woman to yield me my progeny. He shall live in the lands of the east, and be well tutored in his sacred trust to weave the best traditions of Japan and the Sacred South together, until such time as he (or, indeed his house, which will periodically require infusion of both Southern and Japanese bloodlines of note) can deliver to the South it's independence, either in this world or in space.  -Lettow April of 2011

The German approach to intercity train traffic really sucks compared to France and Spain. What a shameful triumph of regionalism and nimbyism.  :(

There's talk in Sweden about getting high speed rail but so far we haven't taken the plunge.
