I do have access to the terrains of Cern, the most technologically advanced Physics research site in the whole world.
Nevertheless, some good old technology remains in place.
At first, I did not try to use it. But in te end, I thought, why not ? So, I took up the phone and ran the number.
He answered. God himself.
And even delivered instantly what I asked for.
A new pair of socks.

339/365 - 21/52
In the year 2525
If man is still alive
If woman can survive
They may find
In the year 3535
Ain't gonna need to tell the truth, tell no lies
Everything you think, do, or say
Is in the pill you took today
In the year 4545
Ain't gonna need your teeth, won't need your eyes
You won't find a thing to do
Nobody's gonna look at you
In the year 5555
Your arms are hanging limp at your sides
Your legs not nothing to do
Some machine is doing that for you
In the year 6565
Ain't gonna need no husband, won't need no wife
You'll pick your son, pick your daughter too
From the bottom of a long black tube
In the year 7510
If God's a-comin' he ought to make it by then
Maybe he'll look around himself and say
Guess it's time for the Judgement day
In the year 8510
God's gonna shake his mighty head
He'll either say I'm pleased where man has been
Or tear it down and start again
In the year 9595
I'm kinda wondering if man's gonna be alive
He's taken everything this old earth can give
And he ain't put back nothing
Now it's been 10,000 years
Man has cried a billion tears
For what he never knew
Now man's reign is through
But through the eternal night
The twinkling of starlight
So very far away
Maybe it's only yesterday
In the year 2525
If man is still alive
If woman can survive
They may find
In the year 3535
Ain't gonna need to tell the truth, tell no lies
Everything you think, do or say
Is in the pill you took today ....
Sorry for not being around guys, i have been working two jobs and have missed so much i have to catch up with everything. So apologies for not catching up with your messages and work...
I had today free so felt i should catch up with my 52 weeks from missing last weeks theme of Technology. I had originally decided to do something combining man and machine but after thinking about it thought i would try the matrix style portraits i have always wanted to try!
It took a lot of layers to say the least but i think i got a similar effect to what i wanted, only downside it isn't dark enough between the highlights. Anyhoo, i'm pleased with the results despite that and hopefully will improve with practice. Now i have to rush off again and go prepare for more work, i hope i get a break soon! Catch up soon guys and gals! :)

Say hello to my new camera!
Well, you can't, because it's not in shot, but this is the first Rachel selfie I've done with my new Christmas present. I went up to Sydney yesterday to try it out, and couldn't resist a few shots of myself. It's excellent for selfies, since its built-in wifi alows me to use my phone to control it - set the focus and various other parameters, and then activate the timer.
Anyway, all that explains the rather strange expression; it's the look of a girl trying something out for the first time :)
Museum of Transport and Technology, Auckland.
Originally built as an FB.40, A52-19, at the Bankstown de Havilland Australia factory, this aircraft was modified to T.43 trainer standards and allocated the serial number A52-1053. The aircraft was accepted by the RAAF on 6th August 1946, and put into storage before being sold to New Zealand later that year for £3,000. She was given the new serial number NZ2305 and assigned to No. 75 Squadron on 1st April 1947. Seeing little service while with 75 Squadron, NZ2305 was sold to a farmer in North Island in 1952.
The rotting remains of NZ2305 were discovered by a Mosquito enthusiast, and the farmer donated it to MOTAT. The project of rebuilding NZ2305 began there, and the fuselage and wings were joined at the RNZAF Museum in Christchurch, restoration being completed in 2007.
The Mosquito was an important aircraft in RNZAF service, during WW2 and postwar. In total, 76 FB.VIs, one FB.40, four T.IIIs and four T.43s were exported to New Zealand.
Week 42
I found a tut for the 3d tunnel and then wanted to take it a little further so I did a partial s2 wrap for my 52 week shot and added some 3d elements to it. Render time was crazy.

Tactical military transport idea, arguably well before the C-17A that we know and love these days.
McDonnell Douglas YC-15A N15YC (72-1875) now preserved at the Edwards AFB West Gate by the Mojave Desert, California.
Only two of these beasts were produced and sadly the other one N215YC/72-1876 was scrapped at one of the Davis-Monthan yards.
after several failed tries, came up with a suitable cyberheart for Bill; it even has a remote bracelet for greater troubleshooting convenience. [IronMan parts! slightly modded]

American Robot is a 1999 American drama film directed by Sam Mendes and written by Alan Ball. Kevin Spacey stars as office worker Lester Burnham, who has a midlife crisis when he becomes infatuated with his teenage daughter's robot, Danbo. Annette Benning co-stars as Lester's materialistic wife, Carolyn, and Thora Birch plays their insecure daughter, Jane. The film has been described by academics as a satire of American middle class notions of beauty and personal satisfaction; analysis has focused on the film's explorations of romantic, robotic and paternal love, sexuality, beauty, materialism, self-liberation, redemption and bizarrely, technology.

The Lights of Winter
That is what the Disney Parks Blog called the Lights of Winter at EPCOT in its confirmation that they wouldn't be displayed this year. Obsolete technology? There were probably meetings held yesterday to come up with an official line for this, and yet this is the best that could be mustered up? Give me a break.
Although it won't affect me directly this year, this really grinds my gears, and is yet another example of cuts that have occurred around the holiday season for no apparent reason (Country Bear Christmas, Mickey’s Twas the Night Before Christmas, live bands in the Christmas parade, free pictures at the Christmas parties, shows in the Diamond Horseshoe, free buttons and shopping discounts for the Candlelight Dining package, etc.). Some have said these cuts have been made due to cost-savings, but I don't find that to be a compelling rationale. While no one could have expected these things to last forever (Disney is not a museum), the argument that these items have all been replaced by better holiday offerings is unpersuasive. Show me what replaced Country Bear Christmas? Nothing. Twas the Night Before Christmas? Totally Tomorrowland Christmas (need I say more?). Free picture? PhotoPass discounts. Freebies for Candlelight dining packages? Price increases to the dining packages.
I really don't think this is a cut stemming from anything but laziness. To me, this illustrates that Disney does not perform its due diligence before making decisions and/or tailors its research to suit its pre-determined decisions. The Lights of Winter have installation/removal, maintenance, and electricity costs. If updated to LED lights (I'm no expert, but something tells me if WDI can make Expedition Everest, converting the Lights of Winter would be no problem, and could be done in like a day), the savings in electricity would probably offset the update costs. Despite these costs, the Lights of Winter are probably profitable. Several PhotoPass photographers are stationed in the area. Additionally, the lights are a huge holiday draw to Walt Disney World. While you'll find few people who will cancel their trip this year because they won't be up, you will see a minute decrease in bookings next year. The reason for that is two-fold: disappointed guests who remember them from the past, but feel 'cheated' that the holiday offerings are being reduced, and new guests who the parks fail to capture (these guests would be 'captured' after seeing pictures of the lights on Facebook, Flickr, etc., and reading/hearing accounts of the gorgeous display--if said lights are not displayed, these new guests cannot be captured). Finally and most importantly, there is a loss in goodwill that is nearly irreparable. There is a reason there is a Disney difference that separates it from parks such as Cedar Point (Cory's favorite). At some point, if Disney continues to trim what it perceives to be 'fat' on its offerings to increase profits, it will start to cut bone.
Then again, maybe Disney is waiting for the LED lights to be 90% off at Wal-Mart after Christmas...

While no technological masterpiece, this old egg beater is an obsolete dinosaur by today's standards - these days cakes are mostly made using electric mixers or food processors. But this old egg beater has served me well, having mixed cakes week in, week out when my family was growing up.
I could have taken a shot of the egg beater doing nothing, but thought I should whip up a 'throw it all in together and mix' type cake. The recipe called for the eggs to be beaten with some caster sugar till thick and creamy and then add the rest of the ingredients and combine. Now it's cooked, I suppose I'm going to have to eat it so my efforts aren't wasted.
Near Future Technology is our first foray into the slightly daunting world of NFT's and just like us she's unsure of what happens next. Blockchain here we come...

Barbara was technically just a sophisticated computer program with access to an android body although her programming didn't allow her the luxury of knowing that. She also felt completely heartbroken at the demise of her tamagotchi and her programming definitely wasn't supposed to allow that either. She didn't really have a heart after all.
It was all very confusing both for her and for the scientists who were studying her. She was the first of her kind and was currently confounding all expectations. She would gaze out of the window for hours at a time and would lament at length about her deceased digital friend. How would she cope in this brave new world...
Cheers

I have been personally seriously injured by the exceedingly poor and dangerous design quality of a piece of modern high technology.
I have needed five weeks so far of intense medical attention.
This experience has somewhat soured my respect for the Company responsible and I have revisited and revised my multiple exposure creation from 2017 to reflect my situation.
