A whimsy cooler at the Castle this morn, there is a nice
covering of cloud at the moment and the liquid metal gauge is reading in the
mid seventies.
The Honda is covered in even more yellow stuff and his Maj
has discovered the joy of lying in the bath to keep the heat at bay.
U-Turn
Cam got in a touch of trouble during Prime Monster’s questions yesternoon-ish
Shit for brains Dave called Ed (starey eyes) Ball a “mumbling
idiot” and was taken to task by Dopey speaker Bercow who told him to withdraw
the remark as the word “idiot” was ‘unparliamentarily’.
A ''simple withdrawal'' would do, he said.
Shame Dave’s dad didn’t do that before he was conceived....
He managed to jump 2,400 ft from a helicopter and landed on
a pile of cardboard boxes without using a parachute.
"I feel incredible, just completely elated," he
told reporters, who had to put their buckets and shovels back in their motors.
Bet a lot of poo came out...
The authorities have come up with a cunning plan to save
money on children’s climbing frames.
Scattered around playgrounds are decommissioned ASU-85s and
ΠΆ-62s
Soviet tanks for kids to clamber upon.
They would have nicked them for scrap if that was Blighty...
Lederhosen attired men gather in vast quantities for a lot
of finger wrestling, competitors subject themselves to an intense regime of
finger training in the build up to a tournament, with some preferring to
squeeze tennis balls or holding their own body weight with a single finger,
some insist that a series of one-finger press ups is the best method of
strengthening.
According to Dmitry Itskov and the people Russia 2045
immortality is just a smidge away, a team of real scientists working on a way
to make us all immortal.
He used his ‘skills’ to create a social movement with the
goal of connecting scientists, philosophers, visionaries and public figures to
work on this common goal. They’ve already started working on androids, or human
avatars, that will soon replace us physically, but carry on our spiritual and
intellectual legacy.
By 2020, this robotic copy of a human being will be
remote-controlled via BCI (Brain Computer Interface), and by 2025 we’ll be able
to transfer a person’s brain into one of these avatars, after they die. By 2035
these androids will be so advanced they’ll be able to support a human’s
personality as well, and finally, in 2045, humanity will have created
holographic avatars able to carry our legacy beyond the stars and practically
render us immortal.
Can’t wait...
And finally:
Japanese company Yuki Corp has “invented” the Auto Door Zero
— the automatic door that needs no electricity to operate.
This automatic door uses the body weight of the person about
to go in or out of the door. Those passing through it might notice that the
floor just before the door sinks about two centimetres once they step forward.
The rest is mechanical history.
And supersedes the door knob by a centimetre-or two...
That’s it: I’m orf to ask Google for
a raspberry pi
And today’s thought:
Order; order...
