I’d rather spend the extra credits for the real stuff. Not synthehol.

I was in the meat department at Walmart yesterday and was flabbergasted when I saw that Walmart was using spider wire anti-theft alarms on full size beef briskets and ribeye roasts. I understand they are stupidly high dollar pieces of meat and can murder your monthly food budget. I wonder what next they are going to put alarms on?!

My Volt has an interest window protection mode. If I hit the lock button too many times (don't know exactly how many, it seems random) all of the windows roll down. The alarm is active and will go off if someone tries to reach in and unlock the door, but the windows are all safely tucked away. A wonderful feature on a rainy day.

Martin. You will like this video. It looks like the kind of workplace incompetence you have to put up with. Day at the construction site.

Thanks for that, yes...

Similar non-thinking unawareness of consequences...

Except...

This ain't primarily a construction site, and the people here really should know better... (Supposedly(TM))


All good fun?

Stay thoughtfully safe folks!

Why does a toothbrush need to connect to the WWW in the 1st place?
3 Million Malware-Infected Smart Toothbrushes Used In Swiss DDoS Attacks
According to a recent report published by the Aargauer Zeitung (h/t Golem.de), around three million smart toothbrushes have been infected by hackers and enslaved into botnets. The source report says this sizable army of connected dental cleansing tools was used in a DDoS attack on a Swiss company's website.

Well it appears that original storyline was a bit long in the tooth!
3 million smart toothbrushes were not used in a DDoS attack after all, but it could happen
