keep reading
Will there be other Victorian treaties? The agreement makes clear the statewide treaty isn’t a one-off agreement. Instead, it’s part of an “ongoing process”, with the state and the assembly committing to continuing discussions on “all matters affecting First Peoples”. Further statewide treaties could follow, covering policy or subject areas as well as deeper structural or systemic issues in the relationship between First Peoples and the state.

My neighbor told me arrakis keep eating his duncan idahos so I asked how many idahos he has and he said he just goes to the tleilax and gets a new idaho afterwards so I said it sounds like he’s just feeding idahos to arrakis and then his daughter started crying.

New CNC milling machine spindle is starting to take shape. Some machining and assembly required...
Parts for a spindle upgrade from my shonky CNC mill. Clockwise from left: 1. a box containing a servo motor, controller, cables and a timing belt pulley 2. a spacer box and 100mm air cylinder (to operate the tool release) 3. a spindle housing block, sitting on top of a 4. a large chunk of cast iron that will be used to space the cylinder housing from the milling machine's Z axis 5. A comparatively-small BT30 ER32 tool holder 6. The BT30 spindle assembly itself (sourced from Aliexpress)

The Seibu department store in Shibuya seems to be using sonic annoyance devices to keep people from sitting on its outside seats - it has emitters blasting a terrible chirping noise around 17kHz. My ears were ringing after walking past.

I'd heard (pun) about these devices but never experienced one…
