Quick Hits: Robot Parkour Edition

People claim a photo circulating showing a man going Downtown on a woman while on a train is WWF star Ric Flair.

He says It Wasn't Me.

BTW, I think the WWF was still the WWF when Flair was a star, but maybe he was still active when it became the WWE. You pro wrestling pendants!

Yesterday the media hoped and prayed for a good Insurrection Bombing to distract the nation from the demented fool's bungling in Afghanistan.

It worked for a few hours. then the man surrendered.

There was no bomb.

I didn't cover this because 1, it stunk of hoax, 2, I don't care what the leftwing media is reporting and 3, I decline to cover crazies allegedly associated with the right when the media still refuses to acknowledge that the assassin who shot seven Republicans was a leftwing Rachel Maddow fanatic.

On Tuesday night, Gutfeld's little show on Fox beat Colbert in the ratings to become the night's most-watched late night program.

I'm not focusing on the Fox Wins part so much as the Leftwing Media Loses part.

Fox News' 11 p.m. ET "Gutfeld!" finally beat every other late-night show -- including Stephen Colbert's "Late Show" on CBS -- Tuesday in total viewership and the advertiser-coveted age demographic of 25 to 54. When the right-leaning program debuted in April, host Greg Gutfeld and his promotional team made no secret of their ambition to overtake late-night rivals, but Colbert blocked him from the top spot.

On Tuesday night, "Gutfeld!" took in a total average of 2.120 million viewers, with 434,000 in the key demo, on average. The "Late Show," which has an 11:35 p.m. ET start time on CBS, grabbed an average of 1.896 million total viewers of whom 423,000 were in the demo. Jimmy Fallon's "Tonight Show" -- an NBC program which also airs at 11:35 -- came next with 1.216 million total viewers, on average, and 354,000 in the demo. (It's worth noting that "Gutfeld!" airs at 8 p.m. PT on the West Coast, and does not repeat at 11 p.m. when the broadcast networks' late-night shows are on.)

Okay, that is a big advantage for Gutfeld. Still -- beating all the network late night hosts.

242 Come on, Man! Yesterday was, like, 4 days ago.

Um, what?

A White House that looks more like America: incompetent, bubble-headed, and vapid.

Australia continues madly racing towards full fascism:

Now, Australia's Minister For Health has announced that 24,000 students will be herded into a stadium in Sydney to be vaccinated by the government. It should be noted that Australia has had strict vaccination laws since at least 2018. Parents can receive heavy fines and lose welfare benefits if they refuse to comply with the traditional vaccination schedule.

What sets this order apart is that Australian parents have been notified they will not be allowed to accompany their children into the stadium. In effect, children will be forcibly removed from the presence of their parents and injected by government agents.

The Health Minister "assured" parents their children would be fine.


I wanna stress to the mums and dads your children will be well looked after inside. When they arrive they'll be literally ushered, we'll have nurses, we'll have some of the youth command, we'll have some of the young police from within various operations, the police there...just to guide them through, as to where they go. They'll be looked after every moment inside the stadium and they'll be well cared for so mums and dads, feel secure. We're going to have 24,000 students we're going to have to get through next week.

KarenPundit's beating off just thinking about getting his hands on so many children!

As we have been warned many, many times: When socialist totalitarianism comes, it will come like the Greek army inside a Trojan Horse named "Health & Safety."

Via Twitchy, the owner of a socialist magazine fires his socialist workers for attempting to start a socialist co-operative.




Yes, it's all too horrifyingly real.

Meanwhile, Elon Musk says Tesla is working on a Tesla robot to perform all the physical labor humans require.


"It kind of makes sense to put [the AI we've developed for robotic cars] onto a humanoid form," Musk said. He added, "And we're also quite good at sensors and batteries and actuators. So we think we’ll probably have a prototype sometime next year."

Of course this is Elon Musk so the presentation quickly turned both comical and philosophical. "It's intended to be friendly of course and navigate through a world built for humans and eliminate dangerous, repetitive and boring tasks."

"We're setting it at a mechanical level, at a physical level you can run away from it," he said to laughter. "And most likely overpower it," he added. "So hopefully that doesn't ever happen but you never know."

...

"It should be able to, you know, please go to the store and get me the following groceries," he said.

"This I think will be quite profound because if you say 'what is the economy?' ... at the foundation it is labor," he said. He continued, "So what happens when there is no shortage of labor? This is why I think long term that there will need to be universal basic income, but not right now because this robot doesn't work. We just need a minute."

"Essentially in the future physical work will be a choice. If you want to do it you can but you won't need to do it," he said.

He also talked up the improvements in the AI for driverless cars, if you're interested.

How long before the below parody video is actually real?

I remember things like the GE carousel of progress, where everything was done at the "push of a button". Now, we're too GD lazy to even push a button, and it's got to be voice command. If we had the rocket packs we were promised, kids would shove them in the corner, and go watch a YT "reaction video" of somebody playing a game where they fly a jetpack.

(2) last night a couple sketchy sites had news that two kids died during the process. But I look now and don't see anything so maybe didn't happen, or maybe being supressed.

A lot of people at AoS think the Covid19 Plandemic was all about getting Trump. That was just a side benefit. It was about installing a New World Order, and that means getting rid of popular rule, and installing and installing a Global Oligarchy to rule.

Perhaps I've read too much sci-fi, but long term I think Elon is right about UBI. I've stated so before. And I even think I can predict what that transition point will be...

When the first fully automated factory starts churning out such robots. Robots making robots. Yep, most labor needs go right out the frikkin' door.

Obviously they have something up their sleeve. It may be the Afghanistan debacle and the last year or so Unpleasantness are related? Tough to figure out without a playbook.

It can happen on controlled routes that allow only one type of automated car system and they would require central coordination. There are systems now that can do this.

However, multiple automated driving systems all acting independently along with people on generic routes is way farther in the future than other types of future tech like hoverboards for cats and sentient mash potatoes.

They got robot mowers for home use now. They're like outdoor roombas. The main difficulty was the simple fact that mowers are really dangerous. So they replaced the steel blade with a stouter version of the plastic wire that weedwackers use. Won't cut your leg off but will cut the grass.

2. I, Joe, now in office as The Most Powerful Man in the World, had to do the stupid thing Stupid Trump negotiated with the evil Taliban, even though I knew it was stupid. No alternative could be considered. Let alone implemented. My word as a Biden.

247 >>> I agree that if you don't move you rust . Atrophy is a killer in the senior community.. That's why I think an assist to walk would help. They move to scooters because of the difficulty and fear of falling. Or they are just lazy and were probably lazy when they were younger,

Squats and deep lunges are really important as you get older. You are in a constant race trying to stay ahead of your butt muscles atrophying. They can almost disappear and I don't know if you can even get them back after they've gone too far.

I wish I could. Maybe next year. We have closed on the construction loan and they were supposed to start dirt work this week for the foundation. Except for the rain.

256 "I agree that if you don't move you rust . Atrophy is a killer in the senior community."

For the same reason inertia is politically. That's why, if we're going to make mistakes anyway, I would prefer that at least some of them be aggressive mistakes and -

I remember things like the GE carousel of progress, where everything was done at the "push of a button". Now, we're too GD lazy to even push a button, and it's got to be voice command. If we had the rocket packs we were promised, kids would shove them in the corner, and go watch a YT "reaction video" of somebody playing a game where they fly a jetpack.

The future isn't just a ripoff, it's a fat, lazy retard.

Who easily accepts what the globalist oligarchy and it's compliant media feed them.

If you want to see someone totally pissed off about this today look for Rob O'Neil, he was on Will Kane's show on Fox. He is PISSED!

260 I think Boston Dynamics should create a slim exoskeleton for legs for seniors to assist what muscle they have left. Mobility is the key for a better life.
Posted by: Just a side note at August 20, 2021 05:52 PM (2DOZq)

Actually... I wonder just how many elderly people these mobility scooters have prematurely killed by relieving them of the need to use their muscles.
Posted by: GnuBreed, no circumstance at August 20, 2021 05:5
-------
I get your concern GB, but think of this. Because of mobility problems they can't move w/out help. What is better...lying in bed or getting around w/ assistance?

My MIL could have used something like Just... suggested. Her ankle and foot bones collapsed so much she couldn't walk. Bedridden at 85 she did last till this Mar, aged 87. RIP Jo.
