A woman, paralyzed and unable to speak...They put a thing w/ 253 electrodes in her brain, the part that controls tongue/lips/cheeks/etc when we speak, attached the a permanent port, and wired that to a computer, then trained the computer to recognize those signals and match them to words she was saying to herself in her mind, and then created the AI and an avatar. The avatar was made to move the same muscles we use in speech, and they used sound clips of the woman's voice before her being paralyzed, so now she can talk to people. They want to make it wireless in the future.

Oh wait, it must not be accurate then, because she's a woman after all. 🤔

Unbreakable material nearly as hard as diamond, with high energy density
It’s taken more than three decades, but scientists believe they have created a material that’s almost impossible to break and could rival diamond as the hardest substance on the planet.
Nothing but nebulous press releases and little about how it actually works yet.
Zero-fuel, zero-emissions, highest efficiency
Today, AISEG is the world’s first successful system that generates higher efficiency output compared to input power. With over 70 patents in 60 countries, AISEG does not have any rotating parts, does not produce carbon or heat emissions, is self-powered and delivers outstanding efficiency. It has a compact footprint and near-permanent lifespan – a one-stop solution for the world’s energy needs.
AISEG opens a market of infinite value with application in every field, such as automobiles by providing clean, emission-free power without fuel. Industries can generate electricity without need for power transmission and home appliances can be powered with an easy plug and play model. AISEG also replaces the immense volume of fuel needed for ships, planes, and carriers, and replaces every other power source at customised power plants.
Neat essay, here's a snip:
The wisdom of age constitutes the ability to accept reality, which is the knowledge of certain death -- substantial, personal, individual extinction. It no longer seeks to disguise the fundamental cruelty and terror of life because it is too weary for further struggle. It is not the acceptance of destiny so much, as the succumbing to it... It's not pessimism but a joyous acceptance of life!

The Air Force’s C-5 Galaxy has some interesting nicknames: Aluminum Overcast, Cumulus Aluminus, Big Mac, Fat Albert, Linda Lovelace (you can drive vehicles right down its throat as the nose pivots up and back)
"Under worst-case scenarios, if the Greenland Ice Sheet melted scientists estimate that sea levels would rise about 7 meters (23 feet). If the Antarctic Ice Sheet melted, global sea levels would jump up a staggering 60 meters (200 feet). Currently, the Greenland Ice Sheet is losing an average of 234 billion tons of ice each year, with researchers predicting 3-5 inches of sea level rise by 2100 if conditions remain the same. In the Southern Hemisphere, Antarctica is losing an average of 252 billion tons of ice per year. Sea level has been higher in the past; the last time global average air temperatures were similar to what they are today, sea level was between six and nine meters (19.6 to 29.5 feet) higher than it is today."
Thomas Jefferson is credited with bringing Mac & Cheese to the U.S., additionally it was one of his favorite foods!
He is often credited with introducing macaroni and cheese to the United States after encountering it during his travels in Europe, particularly in France and Italy, while serving as U.S. Minister to France. Fascinated by the dish, he brought back pasta-making equipment and recipes, which he served at Monticello and during a state dinner in 1802. His chef, James Hemings, trained in French cuisine, played a key role in preparing these dishes. Jefferson's promotion of macaroni and cheese helped popularize it among the American elite, laying the foundation for its enduring place in American cuisine.

Love the way Costco does business. They just promoted a new CEO, who started working there 40 years ago as a forklift driver.

Woodrow Wilson was the only US President with a PhD.
How can that be? The oceans are rising to heights like never before… aren’t they????

But did you know that it was not what we know as macaroni? The pasta in that dish was actually vermicelli.
I didn't know that, interesting
