  1. A science journal exclaimed that gravity had been overcome more than 100 years ago, and these days we have clueless idiots playing with flywheels scratching their heads, (to the masses). The geniuses of our day literally have to develop this and new power systems on their own and then keep it to themselves for fear of bullying or death threats. Let's hope that Greer succeeds in bringing this out to a billion people worldwide, since the scum of the planet cannot suppress it anymore.
  2. So no intermission? Could have guessed it would slow down at one point, Jurassic World was similar l thought that it was going to be an all out battle, but turned out to be something else. Or more story line and less spectacle.
  3. Q-FEEL "Dancing In Heaven Orbital Be-Bop" -1982, (from the Girls Just Want to Have Fun movie). Great unknown song, enjoy.
  4. Correction there is one in the US, that can do 200 Petaflops. https://www.popsci.com/summit-supercomputer/ And is water cooled, (well non conducting fluorocarbon) like the Cray was. Tried to find some examples of virtual environments using a petaflop system but none available, or it seems that it is only used for crunching numbers or seeing the DNA of life, etc. I thought that James C. would be using one, (Avatar) but quite ironically his is only 4 times faster than the 80's cray was, but probably required a minute or two for each second for the resent installments.
  5. No, is the basic answer. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cray-1 Costed about 8 million in 1977, (80's) or $35m in todays terms, with about 2 gigaflops per second, (well 2 gig in 1985 and mega, beforehand). So breaking the numbers down, a Nintendo Oled can do about 12 Teraflops per second. There are 500 2x gigaflops in one teraflop, (so a Nintendo Oled is 500 times faster per TF or 6000 times faster than something the size of a small room and costing millions instead of $500). This puts it in perspective, The Last Starfighter, (1984) used a Cray, which was reported to be crunching roughly 20 gigaflops per second, (going by memory couldn't find any material). And remember that its top speed was about 2 per second, so about 10 seconds to render one seconds worth of video. And something that we can hold in our hands is 6000 times faster and millions cheaper, meaning it could render the scenes above in real time without blinking. I grew up with a Cray Computer poster on my wall drooling about what l could do with it, and now l have something far more powerful. And by the way China has the fastest supercomputer at 61 Pflops per second, (or 1000 trillion operations per second if it did 1Pflop). Or 6100 trillion calculations per second, present day.
  6. We recently had the coldest day ever for this time of year our mountains have more snow than we need which is all due to freezing cold winds from Antarctica, not warm as the idiot politicians and senile old fools keep pushing. It seems that if The Times or NASA or CSIRO says that we are burning up some will buy it regardless, and we have these fools in power. At least for now, people will only tolerate so much sky high electricity prices before they don't care anymore about impending doom.
  7. Commercial break. 1986 l remember going into Melbourne on a train and seeing crowds of people looking in amazement at this in a computer shop window, then l would make my way down to the Sony shop to watch Star Trek the Motion Picture on their new Lazer disk, sigh.
  8. Intaferon - Steamhammer Sam - 1984, (and from the YT comments a very hard song to find) China Crisis - Tragedy And Mystery - 80's Big Audio Dynamite - The Bottom Line - 1985
  9. Sounds too good to be true, let's hope that it isn't, (go about 11.45 in for the video doc) and l do agree that the medical institutions globally are collapsing, and virtually no one will trust them again eventually. Quite ironically the jabbed and boosted will be going after this since mainstream medicine will most likely offer little to no help.
  10. No, Exhibition centre was closed. Australia! Wasn't moving. Some weird machines that moved. Wall display showing Collins street Melbourne. Probably 1880, (no text showing dates). 1900. 1910. 1930's, maybe 50's? 1970's, (remember the trams). Some pottery we dug up from those eras. Nice rainforest, but too wet. Ended up watching Matlock.
  11. No l have seen popular bands go down the same monotonous, rap route probably because it makes money for them and they don't have to work as hard. And media pushes this direction since it is dull uninspiring and keeps people under more control than in the 70's-80's.
  12. Dragon - Rain - 80's Dragon - Are You Old Enough (Official Music Video - 1978). 1978, in Melbourne, or where l live, (remember the trams and trains, with no air conditioning, apart from open windows). This was a year after Star Wars came out. Dragon - Wilderworld (1984)
  13. Probably the apathy/compliance thing?
  14. Sharon O'Neill - Power - 80's Takeaways - Glam To Wham - 1984 The Takeaways - Sweet and Sour - 1984
  15. I spoke too soon they actually put the golf on again, (last few years nada, probably because of some Covid BS) so l will tape the golf and watch it later, (still have a VHS player).
  16. I would say that the entertainment industry has shifted into Empathy territory. Or music used to be fun, inspiring and beautiful, (key reason l keep researching and adding to my 1100 music videos thread) and now it is monotonous predicable and crap, (the rap part). And l typically don't watch tv anymore, since any movie past 2015 seems to be taboo, apart from movies that flop at the box office.
  17. The Boomtown Rats - Banana Republic
  18. I always suspected that the FBI did it, but this is pretty conclusive that it was staged. And considering the incessant lying about the Covid Vaccine, this shouldn't be any great surprize.
  19. Yello - Vicious Games - 1985 Yello - Oh Yeah. Been in several 80's movies, The Secret of My Success, and Ferris Brewers Day Off.
  20. Still have a floppy on my PC which is broken but would if l could, but only really for nostalga.
  21. Goes for 40 minutes and l couldn't find the other parts, but l will put them here if l do, (but from what l skimmed there is fascinating insights and worth watching).
  22. A few brave souls delve into this, and the evil and powerful always find a way to suppress it. Sounds remarkably similar to today, where big Pharma, make $150 per jab, (Ivermecktin 30cents) this a little electricity, the mainstream one typically 300k. This planet is in the dark ages medically, but when news of the jab and boosters real affects hit mainstream and there is a global mistrust of the established medical institutions then revolutionary cures such as this will finally see the light of day.
