@lcbr Rings? Chortle, scoff and sneer. I took part in the Australian Maths Olympiad many years ago and scored a credit but not a gold. There was one problem that escaped me, no solution at the time, and there it lurked in the back of my mind for 60 years until in a flash last year I realised it was a simple parity or modulo problem and the answer was so obvious. That lurking ghost has now been exorcised. As to your question about triangles, maths and problem solving was my specialisation, and recreational maths and number theory are lifelong and ongoing hobbies. Kenken is a favourite. Chess Backgammon and Bridge were other achievements. Perhaps you might beat me at Trivia, particularly on post 80s music. Or NFL. The horsetrack? The dogs? Nothing else comes to mind as a likelihood.
@op so you seem to think preaching to the converted of either persuasion is useful? Why bother? Disproving or pretending to prove the unprovable is of course an exercise in futility. And your recent efforts are descending into puerility, discrediting you further. Leave it alone. I avoid the 'love christ' threads - and I should avoid yours too! Silent intelligence deserves respect, you do not.
@lcbr when you present youtubes like this 'china-yulin-dog-meat-festival-pups-tortured-boiled-alive' you are not being merely 'disingenuous' you are being patently dishonest. You know it too! You seek out things that support your biases and prejudices, and tout them as the truth. Detestable, reflect on yourself and find some integrity.
@lcbr look maaaaaaaayyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyte some people are not the full quid - use your own 85 cents and show some understanding. The language shows what the language shows and you need to use your eyes to see it. Lay off! Understand?
@lcbr nor will I bite. Your 'evidence' always proves to be vapour - check and see whether any of the 'live' dogs are actually live. You read and believe sensational headlines. Or photoshop. Go back to Epoch Times. Or the Daily Mirror.
The slaughter practices have been developed over thousands of years, and torching or boiling alive is not part of the practice. Checkout the Western techniques.
I think we've had a thread before on the invention making and cost of Astronaut pencils, have we not? Ah, it is a pen in fact. Lead shavings are not welcome in space amongst electonic equipment.
The Space Pen (also known as the Zero Gravity Pen), marketed by Fisher Space Pen Company, is a pen that uses pressurized ink cartridges and is able to write in zero gravity, underwater, over wet and greasy paper, at any angle, and in a very wide range of temperatures.
Deep fried tofu is excellent, I particularly like it in Laksa Harder cold varieties of tofu as snacks, usually with chilli and spices are very acceptable I particularly like the soft tofu served in a thick savoury soup for breakfast, and nothing wrong with the silky tofu of Mapo Doufu. And as for red blackbean chicken feet or cold steamed white chicken feet yum! haha Horses for courses. But not brains and intestines!
Barking dogs - I'd divorce an incorrigibly barking dog in a flash - well, after exhausting all attempts to amuse it enough to stay silent. I'd probably consider of disposing of a neighbour's barker too, having delivered sufficient notes to their doorstep.
@miclee you are grossly ignorant and biased in your commentary on Biden. As you were in you support of the cretinous ex president. See how the world views the two, and reflect, 'WHY'

I remember seeing the woman with long plaited hair carrot coloured and hard not to stare corner of Pitt and Hunter and of course I didn't dare speak. outside the gift shop it trailed on the pavement. what was I doing there? The bus went to Central and beyond I guess, oh yes I remember living at Redfern Up Elizabeth Street Past Korean town and little Beirut Up Cleveland and off at Bourke that was the route.
@berry making fun, not at all. That was my feeble attempt at flirting, I know I know, behave your age - but I never have. 50 Merivale Lane Merivale, a stucco two story house, a later owner painted brownish, I had painted white. The chimneys worried me, I had experienced an earthquake (Inangahua) and I thought I might be killed in sleep by a falling chimney. Another disturbing memory is the howling wind and charcoal sky of the Wahine disaster
@jac laughing at me crying at the end of a movie is quite natural, I knew I was being manipulated too! No objection, but she used to anticipate the reaction.
@berry 'it wasn't flash' oh that's so kiwi! I would have said 'it was nothing flash' I also lived in Chch for 12 years or so ... and nothing flash except my last house was in Merivale, still standing.
@jac I remember my #2 ex-wife sitting forward to see if I cried at the end of a movie (what movie, cannot remember!) she was looking forward to me crying, clearly. But on the other hand, at the end of '1984' she told me she would never watch another movie with me. Now what do you say about that?
