Today Iâll try to go to sleep earlier than usual⊠itâs not much of a purpose but will try anyway. Night night lovelies!
Also: in times of your grandmaâs grand-grandma, there were stars and photographs for fans of those starsâŠ
La Belle Otero as a sleeping beauty, postcard from Paris 1900 when she was 32. Spanish actress, dancer and courtesan, Belle Otero was a star famed for her beauty, lavish lifestyle (at one point, she bought herself a mansion worth 15 million in current dollars) and specially for her many lovers. She earned and later gambled away a personal fortune equivalent to $ 25 million, her shows at the Folies Berges would sell out weeks in advance and her risquĂ© (for the time) postcards were a very sought after souvenir from Paris. Unlike some contemporary beauties, she still would be considered beautiful today and back in my grandparentâs time pretty women would be compared to âla bella Oteroâ as she was known in her homeland. She would die in poverty in a one room appartment in Nice in 1965, aged 96. She wouldnât let anyone photograph her past her prime, but rumor has that she still was a handsome old lady when she died.

Literally the best bit of hanging advertisement that you will ever see (from an American branch of Ikea I think).
Hint: itâs all about the text details ⊠Iâm not sure exactly how depressing it is that they needed, on some levels to actually state this. LOL

Porbably itâs a oneâsize-fits-all advertisement ready to go printed on anything from leaflets to aisle signs thus the warning to debunk âfalse advertisingâ claims from idiots, scammers and idiot scammers. Judging by the white stuff, the actual thing might be 6-7 cm wide.

Time to go to sleep⊠night night lovelies!
Also: those days when a meteorite (almost) knocks on your doorâŠ
The meteorite, determined as being a condrite (a very common type) probably hit the ground at its atmospheric terminal velocity, some 200 km/h. Itâs the first time a meteorite hitting the ground has been recorded and listened to (the meteorite smashes to the right of the low wall, by the flower bank).

I think people went to some discords, reddit etc. Instead of one big forum they more like to have their own small chat like groups.

They are developing synthetics like those in Alien movies.
You would have to use translate in you tube tho.
Essentially they use valves and polimers, closely resembling functions and anatomy of humans, with all its evolutionary anatomical physical constrains and functions.

Bruce Willis had a movie about synthetic bodies like that:
The guy in that Polish spoken vid seems really enthusiastic,no, visionary about it.
I think the remote surrogate concept is more acceptable than Elon Muskâs chip in organic human brains.
EDIT: He also looks a little nervous at the end of the vid, while explaining risks.

Thats very nice. You really have that something.
Yes, he knows what he thinks is not really aligned with current world. He develops something that cant really be more good in warfare or in physical capabilities, he will make only a replacement for human in mostly human operable environments, temperatures, pressures, gaseous atmosphere, that is as vulnerable as human is, physically. With kind of soft body, polimers and fluids, that can be cut and then fluids will flow out, making it inoperable and needing essentially a surgical repairs with gluing and replacing artificial muscles, nerves and veins.
Popularising it will have some effect on general population, no doubt, but he is super optimistic that it will help people, and people can only hurt themselves, not his creation. The use of AI in it have already a lot of ethical burden, the machine body he is making is sort of a golem, when it starts having its own opinions then we will worry, not now.

It needs a lot of work to be perfected, and, throwing in money is not always entails best solution. There are going to be incomplete findings over the years even if it is non-stopped developed.
However, not all tech discoveries are used immediately after they are developed. They get thrown in the toolbox or the development trickles and when it is needed, recalled to fill the role.
Iâve read somewhere that velcro was already invented before the NASA space programme.
Remember the quote âNecessity is the mother of inventionsâ? That can be also said as âNecessity is the re-surfacing of all inventionsâ. It can require, the finding of the right existing tech by leaving no stone unturned.
