Ball's Pyramid
This photo is from my #worldcruise collection. It's not a recent photo.
I took this photo because from far away I saw a very high mountain (even though the ship was many miles away).
But only after a little while I discovered that it was
Ball's Pyramidthe highest volcanic sea stack in the world , in the #Tasman Sea (Pacific Ocean) . Better late than never 😅GPS

Catch of the Day: The Forbidden Apple! 🍏🪟
Hey Retro Fans!
Hold on to your CRT monitors, because our FrogFind radar has caught something today that feels like a relic from a parallel universe. Among all the Nintendos and Linux machines, this legendary identifier appeared:Internet Explorer 5.17 on Mac (PowerPC)!
For everyone rubbing their eyes right now: Yes, Internet Explorer existed for the Mac, and it was a big deal! Following the historic "peace treaty" between Steve Jobs and Bill Gates in 1997, Internet Explorer became the official default browser on all Apple computers for five years.
The craziest part? Mac IE was technically vastly superior to its Windows counterpart at the time! Microsoft built a completely bespoke rendering engine for Apple called Tasman, which was one of the very first to properly support CSS. Version 5.1.7 (released in the summer of 2003) was the absolute final update ever pushed for classic Mac OS 8 and 9 before Apple entirely shifted focus to their own browser, Safari.
The fact that today, over 20 years later, someone boots up an old PowerPC Mac (perhaps a colorful iMac G3?) and browses FrogFind with the Mac-exclusive Internet Explorer is a glorious time machine to an era when Microsoft and Apple surfed hand in hand.
Cheers to the Tasman engine!

Thins are looking rough in most of the Nelson / Tasman area at the top of NZ's South Island.
There are evacuations in Lower Moutere, Takaka is likely to flood, Kaiteriteri and Riwaka residents are under a conserve water notice and there are multiple power outages.
This story has more detail.
Note: It's easier to read the RNZ story on the ODT because they don't use the annoying live feed format.

Honestly, I think the #Kia #Tasman looks better than most “American” utes / trucks. It looks like something #Citroen would have made recently. Would really like to see a shorter wheelbase 2 door, 2 seat full body version, like a new take on the SWB BJ74 Landcruiser.
The world needs more quirkyness and less homogeny. #Car #Design

> The first thing your eyes are drawn to, because you simply cannot avoid them, are the totally incongruous fender flares. these oversized slabs of black polypropylene look like they’re from a completely different #truck. Because they extend too far forwards and backward in the longitudinal axis, they don’t fit the shape of the wheel arch at all. Neither do they wrap around the entire opening

Pleasant drive through hop-growing Motueka Valley, then following Buller River (📷1) on St Arnaud-Kawatiri Hwy into #Tasman’s Nelson Lakes NP, which sits within northernmost ranges of Southern Alps. Lake Rotoiti is one of two larger lakes, carved out by glaciers during the last ice age. There’s a serviced DOC camp at Kerr Bay (📷2-4), close to alpine village of St Arnaud.

Rode sect 3 Kaiteriteri–Motueka of #Tasman’s Great Taste Trail: 16km slice of 188km cycleway. Began in Kaiteriteri Mountain Bike Park, a gradual climb then descent with views over Tapu Bay (📷1). On coastal flats crossed Riuwaka then Motueke River, passing orchards & vineyards (📷2). Bobbes (🍏 & marzipan) the reward (📷3); hadn’t seen outside 🇩🇪FFM! Soon back in MTB park (📷4).

Better weather as we returned past the entrance into Whanganui (Westhaven) Inlet in #Tasman (📷1); 13km long, it was the first estuary in NZ protected as a combined marine & wildlife reserve. An example causeway on Dry Rd (📷2); the tide flows beneath. Made a detour to Kaihoka Lakes; the 1st lake is roadside (📷3) & the 2nd reached via a 15min path through nikau forest (📷4).

Murchison in the #Tasman District is a quintessential NZ small town. It was hit by a severe earthquake over 90 years ago and is popular with visitors seeking water-based activities on the Buller River. Less well known, it is also a base for excursions to see—and cook over—natural flames that burn in the bush.
