Merkins will sue for anything – Apple store at Florida Mall faces lawsuit over 2016 evacuation
Apple store at Florida Mall faces lawsuit over 2016 evacuation – Orlando Sentinel:
… the realistic drill was held as part of the inspection of a new restaurant opening that day. It included officials popping six balloons to mimic the sound of gunfire
I’m laughing at popping of balloons, but it was a ‘realistic drill’ who can they give them a warning !?!
Wearable device can ‘hear’ the words you say in your head
From: MIT’s wearable device can ‘hear’ the words you say in your head:
Our idea was: Could we have a computing platform that’s more internal, that melds human and machine in some ways and that feels like an internal extension of our own cognition?
As long as it’s only me that can hear the voices in my head!
Now you can order and pay for a Volvo from an App
From: All you need for a Volvo XC40 subscription is your iPhone:
When I first read this I thought it was too much, but then on rethinking ‘why not?’
You can use any iOS device to run the Care by Volvo app, of course, and both Touch ID and Face ID work to authorize the payment. The app allows you to take a virtual tour of the XC40, configure your own with options and fill out your details for the subscription. All of this right from the app
But the killer comes down to the user experience, as that’s a significant expense and commitment to make whilst sat on the loo!

Piranha fish found in Chichester sewer as water company pleads ‘only flush poo, paper and pee’
From: Piranha fish found in Chichester sewer as water company pleads ‘only flush poo, paper and pee’:
The flesh-eating creature was found by a startled member of staff at Southern Water who was carrying out checks at the West Sussex treatment works.
The South-American river predator, which normally hunt in packs, can rip flesh to shreds in a matter of seconds.
Filed under WTF! Flesh eating fish (albeit a dead one), in the UK, in the sewer (no doubt with the crocodiles and the clown from IT!). #shudder
Apple Plans to Use Its Own Chips in Macs
From: Apple Plans to Use Its Own Chips in Macs From 2020, Replacing Intel
Apple Inc. is planning to use its own chips in Mac computers beginning as early as 2020, replacing processors from Intel Corp., according to people familiar with the plans.
This doesn’t surprise me, and could work out well (hell Apple have done this before coming from PowerPC), I would expect the first models to be a low end / thin MacBook, mayhap the replacement for the MacBook Air which seems to be being strung out forever!
