“We are Forerunners. Guardians of all that exists. The roots of the Galaxy have grown deep under our careful tending. Where there is life, the wisdom of our countless generations has saturated the soil. Our strength is a luminous sun, towards which all intelligence blossoms… And the impervious shelter, beneath which it has prospered.”
The constant drumbeat of, frankly, insane talk about nuclear weapons and who will launch the first strike over the last couple of weeks, has gotten well and truly out of control by now. The rhetoric coming out of the West bears absolutely no relation to reality, yet...
I have been listening to a lot of both Latin and Greek hymns of late. Something about them is both very calming, yet energising, at the same time. One, in particular, is very good – it is apparently a chant from the Templar era, in Latin, and it essentially...
That photo up top really does summarise exactly what most of us look like when we are jolted out of a sound sleep involving a bathtub, two Russian Friday T&A girls, jello, an F-16, and LOTS of bubbles – oh, is that just me, then? – by the alarm clock,...

As you have no doubt heard by now, Prime Minister Chucky, aka Liz Truss, is no longer in charge of PommieBastardLande. She resigned earlier today, to the surprise of just about nobody, after spending just six weeks in office. That makes her the shortest-tenured Prime...
In this latest Domain Query, I address a rather interesting question from LRFotS Randale6 that touches on the thorny and tricky issue of thinking machines and artificial intelligence, while referencing the greatest sci-fi novel ever written. Here’s the...
The weekend is always just way too damn short. It is ESPECIALLY too damn short if you cook a really nice steak dinner (with sweet potato fries) and then end up drinking a bit too much red wine, go to bed early, yet you then find yourself rudely awoken at 3am by noisy...
