Who is this?



No, it's not Rami Malek's younger sister, her name is Alex Archer, and at 24 was the engineer at GM who thought up and built the auto industry's first power sliding center console. Soon to be coming to an SUV near you. Apparently it can make enough space to hold 4 gallons of milk. Good Job!

Something REALLY crazy. The Army is studying good video gamers and monitoring their eye movements, controls, EEGs, etc. playing specific games and is trying to incorporate that data into an AI program for controlling a "swarm" of up to 250 (probably 256, really) air and/or ground robots!

Not to swear, but God Bless America! Some of the Big Heads out there just can't WAIT to be the ones to end humanity!

Just remember those movies are made by humans. Wait until you see the version the AI creates!

 

A firefighter was suspended from his job for entering a burning building and trying to save a woman. Yes, I understand that there are protocols for a reason, but OTOH, talk about bad optics! They should have let this one slide, IMO.

"
A Georgia firefighter faces a suspension this week for attempting to save an elderly woman from her burning Atlanta home last June.

Fire Captain Daniel Thomas Dwyer was assigned to the search team as other firefighters were attacking the blaze, but he decided to risk his life to rescue 95-year-old Sallie Skrine from the burning building, according to WXIA-TV.

He reportedly abandoned fire policy by entering the home. Inside he found Skrine unconscious on the dining room floor and got her out, but Dwyer and other fire personnel couldn't revive her, the station said.

A "notice of final adverse action" complaint said the firefighter will be suspended four days because of the heroic decision that broke protocol. He is able to return on Feb. 19, according to WXIA-TV."

Angela Hewitt is one of the world's finest pianists at the current time. Why is she in the news? She just finished recording something in Berlin and the movers dropped her $200,000 hand-made, one of a kind, piano, destroying it. I thought that only happened in cartoons?

The Australian police are busy protecting their public. In this case they charged a man for talking on a cellphone while riding a horse, noting that the horse didn't have a hands-free device attached. Way to go, cops! I feel safer already!

"
A man in Australia has pleaded guilty to a charge of talking on a hand-held cellphone while riding a horse.

The case involved a 30-year-old man in New South Wales, according to reports.

He and the horse were stopped by police after he was seen holding a cellphone to his ear while riding on a rural road in October, the Tenterfield Star reported.

The Mudgee Local Court magistrate judge said “under the road rules a horse is a vehicle…and he didn’t have a hands-free device fitted to the horse,” the paper reported."

The really funny part would be watching him try and plug in his phone to the horse's charging port.

 

"Chongqing" must mean "Florida" in Chinese. Anyways, Here's your daily "Chongqing man" story:


"The 59-year-old Chongqing resident had planned a birthday banquet with more than 10 tables' worth of guests last month when local officials asked him to cancel the Jan. 28 celebration in the wake of the coronavirus outbreak, Reuters reported, citing state-run Xinhua news agency.

But when the man, who has not been identified, failed to convince officials to reconsider two days before the birthday bash was set to take place, he allegedly wrapped firecrackers around his waist, poured gasoline on his chest and held up a lighter — threatening them into lifting the ban."


LOL, I guess every country has its share of nuts.

You think *you* have a bad first date story? A Massachusetts woman picked up her date she had been associating with online at his parents house (strike two already for me) and he proceeded to drink wine while they were driving (strike 2.5?) and asked her to pull over at a bank to get some money. He then *robbed* the bank and came out holding a gun and a handful of gas and said, "F-ing go!" She started driving away but was smart enough to stop and jump out of the car when the cops found them, and ended up safe and wasn't charged as an accomplice or anything, but... it'll probably be a bit before she trusts anyone again, LOL!

A major league baseball player was just arrested for gratifying himself in a mall parking lot. I mean... you're not broke. You have a house that you live in. Couldn't you just wait until you got home? WHY would you do something like that in a parking lot?

This guy in NY was arrested and released robbing people on the subway 139 times! ONE HUNDRED THIRTY-NINE TIMES! This time he thanked the Dems for keeping him out of jail. Bail reform isn't working. Well... that's my opinion. His opinion is that bail reform is "lit".

When people are repeat offenders they have to be locked up so they don't make victims out of anyone else. And what a colossal waste of time for the police and judicial system. I'm sure it doesn't do the cops' morale any good to arrest some guy over and over only to see him back on the street committing the same crime the next day.

Oh, and he's a racist, too, if that is considered a bad thing in POC like it is for white people.

A story with a happy ending. Some guy was robbing a restaurant in Kentucky. Unfortunately for him, two of the patrons were a husband and wife couple of off-duty police officers having a "date night". They pulled their guns on the crook who tried to run away but was apprehended. Good job, cops!
