2018 Taiwan Classic micromouse First prize winner - HippoC

The foolproof way to find the exit in a maze is to keep your finger on the left wall and keep going. You will eventually reach the exit.

If Jack Torrance had this valuable information he could have caught that little brat kid.

The Best Bouncer Fight Ever

Mordhaus says...

I got lazy on the title, that is the video one. The best bar fight I ever saw was outside of a Korean bar in Harker Heights, Texas back in the 90's. I had exited the bar next to it with some friends when we saw the bouncers toss out two elderly Korean gentlemen in full suits. I would guess they were at least 50 or so.

Anyway, once they were outside, the bouncers left and these two guys proceeded to get into a full fledged Tae Kwon Do (or maybe Hap Ki Do, I don't think it was that though because it had a lot of power kicks) fight. I mean they were going at it, and I mean HARD. Much more contact than in any of the TKD matches I had been in at tournaments. After about a minute of not landing a solid hit, they stopped and mutually allowed one another to remove their suit jackets. Then back to the fray. They did get a few kicks in and got a bit bloody, but that is when the bouncers returned, apparently with their WIVES.

Hilarity ensued, because both wives basically glanced at one another and then waded into the fracas. They each started slapping and kicking on their husband, screaming at them. I don't speak Korean, but you could tell by the tone they were dressing them down hardcore. The fight stopped and two bloody, formerly distinguished looking guys looked like a couple of kids who had really torqued off their mom. I was dying off to the side from laughter. I swear if camera phones had existed back then it would have been an instance classic.

Best bouncer fight ever?

You have a low bar for what you consider bar fights. Around here, this is what happens every 10 minutes after 9pm until closing.

It happened before video phones became a thing, but the "Best bouncer fight" I ever watched was between two bouncers from competing clubs hanging out at a third club. Both were over 6'6", both had years of experience in their chosen martial arts, and each was built like a brick shithouse. Epic. Purely Epic.

Backdraft training (wait for it)

Look for flashover videos too.
Nothing like seeing the fire on one side of the room and you think your safe, to get to the exit but the superheated gases travelling along the ceiling over your head dip down and ignite the opposite side of the room on fire.

This Halloween commercial gave me the chills

When diodes meet.

wanted to lock a human in a room,
it would just need to design the
exit with three door knobs."

FOUND Missing 12 Thai Soccer Kids Trapped in Flooded Cave

MilkmanDan says...

I've been following this story here. Sure was happy when they were found alive -- I had started to lose much hope after they'd been gone 4+ days.

The bad news today is that a Thai volunteer diver, a former SEAL, died on a return trip from setting up extra air supply tanks along the route. BBC coverage is very good:
https://www.bbc.com/news/world-asia-44734385

Most cave diving experts think that it would be extremely risky to try to move the kids out by diving. One of the on-scene people from the US has said that none of the boys know how to swim, let alone dive, and the conditions in cave diving make it so that panic can quickly lead to disaster.

Unfortunately, a new complication has come up. Oxygen levels in the chamber they are in are now at 15%, down from the usual 21%. They are working to get piping in to supply fresh air, but logistics of that are difficult since they need about 3 miles of piping. And to make matters worse, heavy rains are in the forecast, which will further stress the pumping that they are doing to keep water levels low in the cave.

The Thai head of the Navy rescue operation was quoted today as saying that "At first, we thought the children could stay for a long time... but now things have changed, we have a limited time." If that is correct and can't be resolved (due to dropping oxygen levels, rising water, or whatever), they may have to opt for the risky exit via diving. So definitely not out of the woods yet.

Life Hack: Breaking off security tag...

eric3579 says...

This is all my understanding of these things and personal observations.

As someone who worked in loss prevention once upon a time, this looks like a standard magnetic Sensormatic tag(no ink) https://www.sensormatic.com/products/hard-tags/ultra-gator-tags

@ChaosEngine It's actually used more as a deterrent than anything. People tend not to steal stuff if they think it will set off some sort of alarm.

Most of the time when a cashier forgets to remove it a small alarm sound will go off when exiting the store. Most people stop look around and then just continue on their way as they usually have no idea why something was just beeping. It happens within seconds so customers are usually way out the door before anyone could react even if they wanted to. Employees tend to just ignore it when it happens. Most big businesses don't want employees chasing or stopping people. You stop someone and they may rightfully feel as if you are accusing them of something in front of all who may be looking. Leading to defamation lawsuits which are often won by plaintiffs.

There is ink in there? The last time that happened to me, with a very similar tag, I just snipped it with some bolt cutters. Maybe that wasn't such a great idea in retrospect.

Costco Thieves Run Right Out The Door & Into Seattle Police

CrushBug says...

Man, there was one video where this guy on a sidewalk was trying to rob a woman of her purse. Behind him were exit doors from some convention center. There two guys come out and spot the guy and they just stopped and looked at each other. The robber was so fired up he didn't even notice them. The two jumped him and it turned out they were local police officers at a police convention, so they just arrested him right there. Video was so funny.

INTENSE CRASH | BIKER VS SEMI TRUCK

robbersdog49 says...

No, he wasn't run over. In the slow-mo you can see he goes into the truck immediately behind the rear wheels of the cab, and exits the other side also just behind those rear wheels. He's a long way in front of the trailer wheels all the way through.

Very lucky.

And yeah, that's one hell of a line!

Fairbs said:

I think the rear wheel of the truck may have run over him

great line 'It's OK, I'm not dead'

What if we get really good at drone AI and batteries?

SFOGuy says...

I think along loiter; hanging around in the sky at 200 feet---waiting for you or others to exit work/school/gym/a bunker/a protest crowd...

Loiter time...+ flight time.

ChaosEngine said:

"BTW, the batteries comment because: short flight life"

Yeah, but how far does the drone actually have to travel?

Even the most basic drone can fly for over a kilometre. The range is generally limited by the control signal, more than the flight time.

I would hazard a guess that a decent spec autonomous drone could easily fly 5km with existing battery technology.

Isn't that enough for this kind of purpose?

You're going to like this one:

Attorney Justin Moore said Jones “was dealing with a minor car issue after accidentally triggering his alarm and being unable to disable the security system” when police arrived. According to Moore, Jones was then “commanded to step out of his vehicle.”

When he exited his vehicle he tried to “explain the issue” and he was then “shot once in the stomach” by the unidentified Mesquite police officer, Moore said.

"Several officers then attacked Mr. Jones and attempted to perform an anal cavity search on the streets. Mr. Jones reacted to the unlawful sodomy and was consequently shot a second time in the back,” according to Moore.

Shot, sodomized, shot again, detained, isolated from legal counsel.

Mesquite Police Department. Off to the gulag with everyone involved in this shit.
