This humidity, not into it, though hump day!!! Heading towards weekend!

Atleast it isn't super hot yet, so the humidity doesn't feel as suffocating as it could be.

Also, can't wait for the weekend! I say that every week, but it's nice to look forward to something.

Stayed back yesterday afternoon and got the cameras working... PTZ camera is now guided by the overhead panoramic camera so there's no blind spots. Can't wait for the couriers to start turning up and see it in real action instead of me wandering around out the front at all hours.

Gonna load up an old palm tree stump we dug up recently in an Amazon box and tape it all up and leave it out the front as bait. So exciting.

That one camera directing another is super cool stuff, had zero idea that was a thing in that land! So cool

Fog on this mornings commute to work was rather bad.

And I think because I am being more cautious and hyper-aware, but there seemed to be way more dickheads on the road. Tailgating and aggressive overtaking galore. Despite there being maybe less than 3 metres of visibility.

The Beaudesert Road Precision Driving Team never ceases to amaze. I just roll along on adaptive cruise with a 2 second following gap and enjoy the show.

My favourite part is after watching Danny Dual Cab, Helen Hot Hatch, and Terry Tradie Van jockeying for position with constant lane changes and slipping up the temporary 3rd lane for the entire length of Beaudesert Road seeing them end up in basically exactly the same relative position they started in compared to me (Eddie Extremely-handsome-but-humble-EV-driver) who changed lanes exactly 0 times.
