How would Siri know when to answer "Hey Siri" unless it is listening in to everything you say?

just watched Longmire on netflix, absolutely loved it, yet the ending was perfect, and your not dying for more,

aussie guy Robert Taylor is the lead and the wonderful Lou Diamond Philips is his side kick! and peter weller, (robocop) the producer comes on at times and hes brilliant!!!

Been watching some of Young Rock on Foxtel. Very not bad.

If this is a precursor to running for POTUS in 10 years, it's genius level stuff. Open the closet now, throw all the skeletons out on the naturestrip for all to see, do some campaigning and do some market testing and leave plenty of time to play.

If you liked "The Last Dance" and wondered why Luc Longley was conspicuously absent, here's part 1 of a 2 part Australian Storey.

yeah basically!!

they have got 2 hillbillies with a combined IQ of 140 locked up for life, one was just 16, and you see them actually in the interview room, hes making a story up so they will let him go back to his maths test!

stephen avery was convicted and served 18 years for a rape, he was released when DNA proved it wasnt him. just 3 years later, after making the local cops look stupid, and getting a $450,000 settlement, they literally framed him for a murder! didnt look at anyone else. but it was either his porn addicted nephew, who is the young guys brother, or the boyfriend that killed her. the evidence is laughable!!

you see all those crazy US movies with a bad cop and think nah, but gees, there is an office filled with them in this town!!!

Watched the first episode of The Fires, filmed very, very close to home!!!

But very intense and realistic, unfortunately very real on just how bad the QLD fire service is behind the times.

Just watched the Fires too.
Agree about it being intense. It’s a show that demonstrates how you can have drama without over the top effects.
