BTY,
Spot - The yellow dog like thing is currently available for purchase starting at around $75,000.
Supposed to have a 90m or so battery life.
I’d get one in a heartbeat if I had a spare 75K$ burning a hole in my pocket.
What a hoot to take for walks in a local dog park.
Can you imagine the amount of therapy both the owners and the dogs would have to go through?
All the Best,
Jeff

Nominated for the next Darwin award…
All the Best,
Jeff

Runner-up nomination since neither shif-4-brains nor giggles died. But they came close.

Take my 12L 300 BAR dive bottle past its test pressure, to burst pressure, and i am sure things will be rocked :partying_face:

Filling out some papers today for a permit to import a silencer, i found a funny permit, seem like if you want to import / procure 3 certain chemicals in larger quantities, you need a permit for that too these days.
I remember as a kid armed with knowledge from suspicious books ordered in the US, we kids ( aged 14-15 years ) had no problem getting said chemicals in a store in town, though they did lift a eyebrow. but we got what we needed to make holes in the ground, mind you small holes only.

Also looking at import duties on various product categories, well funny think though there have never been nuclear power in Denmark, just a very small test / research reactor, it seem like you can import a used reactor, there is a duty price for it at least.
But you probably also need a import permit for that.

I swear, Clown Country.

Better keep the recipe for tannerite away from those guys, there have been plenty of guys going too far with that already, and also very damn near lost their head

I’m always amazed at people’s choice of work shoes or lack of—- Cool Video though

Wonder what would you could do or build with those large slabs?

There is a lawn service guy in my neighborhood that operates his mowers and weed-eater while barefooted too.

Wow, that guy gets paid good money to do very little!

That's impressive.

(I don't think that his job would go over very well in the U.S., but it seems to be working well in Japan.)

Raised crosswalks? Jay-walking legal everywhere?

These concepts are alien to the American mind!

Oh, I looooove the SLC crossing flag idea.

’Though I’d be worried for being taken as a pumpkinsexural waving one-a those around.

“driver compliance”.
it’s a Dutch thing.
not around here.

drivers hit speed bumps at high speed
to video how far they “grab air”.
cars AND bikes.

There are some cool clips called the "Speed Bump Olympics" that show up occasionally in car-crash videos.This one road has back-to-back to bumps, and if you don't slow down, you're guaranteed get some air, and hit hard—with a significant possibility of damage!—on the landing.

And then you hit the second speed bump...

Whee!

Charging Ahead: Batteries of the Future by Yi Cui

Public lecture at SLAC (Stanford Linear Accelerator)

Live right now! Available for restreams later.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vegK1xrsXfk

The lecture is a bit nerdy, but it is not one of those that promises new tech that will be ready to market in only 5 years. Yi is a leading scientist, but he is not particularly charismatic, at least, when he speaks English.

The Biggest Ideas in the Universe: Space, Time, and Motion
By Sean Carroll

Finally, a popular science book that is not afraid to use equations!

Astrophysicist Sean Carroll, who is definitely charismatic, gives a layman's introduction to the the field equations of Einstein's General Theory of Relativity. This lecture was presented to the Commonwealth Club of California earlier this month.

Not the blacked-out Charger, but a (semi-)blacked-out Charger.

Best ASP chase I’ve seen in a while.

That was scary—is that what law enforcement is taught or encouraged to do?

It sure seems totally reckless and stupid to make an ultra high speed pursuit thru heavy traffic at night. The risk to innocent citizens on the road was extreme.

i had a coworker whose wife was hit by a high speed police car in pursuit in broad daylight. She survived but was injured and disabled for the rest of her life. A huge price that she had to pay every day.

The consequences of a mistake seem to far outweigh any benefit of arresting a speeder in those circumstances. There are other smarter ways using technology to find the car/guy and impound and make an arrest in a safer setting.
