"feels like" 6.

No, it feels like minus 6. At least it's not windy, look on the brightside and all that. Brrrrrr.

Have a lovely day.

@PetulantBandicoot@aussie.zone .... *A2*, and orange hivis??

I spent like 4-5 hours last night trying to get reliable transcribing from WAV files attached to email to a Discord channel message using self-hosted everything (bar Discord, obviously). It has not gone well and now I'm all over tired and cranky. Might just use a hosted API after all. Sigh.

A2, and orange hivis??

Kind of sounds like my brother. Was it a hatchback?

Your brother is a hunchback ?

Oh, no. It was a BYD Seal this morning. The numberplate featured A2 in it. The driver was wearing an orange hivis jacket. I was hunting Bandicoots.

There are a LOT of Seals around this area. Then you get to Sunnybank and its all Teslas. Or travel further out and its all dual cabs. Microclimates of style of car ownership.
