Yesterday AI in elevators, today…
…we think of the worst case. What would happen
if the ropes of the elevator cabin snap and the
emergency brakes are failing to function. Would it
help to jump then and reduce impact?

Yesterday we have shown a guy who tried to steal a bike
just in front of a police station. We have received some
more hilarious footage from idiots who don’t know what
surveillance is and when they stop looking around.
This can be a real hassle. New version of WordPress gets
rolled out and again our cronjobs to release scheduled posts
are simply gone! We wonder what ditches our cronjobs and
thus hinders WP to publish posts that are scheduled.
Just imagine, there you are on your way to the metro,
standing on the escalator and all of a sudden that darn
thing speeds up at a fricking speed where your only
thought is: How will I end at the end of the escalator?
The weekend is here and it’s time for some relaxing.
Today here’s some fun compilation of epic construction
site fails. Or let’s say better: Things you’d better not have
done as shown in the video. Have fun and a nice saturday!
This is indeed a spectacular fail during a sports event. A basketball player
celebrates his slam dunk in a rather unusual way and wanted to impress
the spectators. The basketball hoop however thought itself: “I must teach
this guy a lesson on how not to treat me!” – The result: Pain and damage!
If the numbers wouldn’t tell that it is a real surveillance video, one could
think of a Bud Spencer movie. A robber and his friend are stopping outside
a little convenience store in Brasil to rob it. But the robber didn’t seem
to be very successful at the end. The video is really self-explaining.
Well… nowadays, servers don’t produce as much heat as their older
pendants which had to be cooled using water. Yet the Microsoft data
center in Ireland hat to stutter when the air flow has shut down for an
unknown reason with a firware update recently successful applied.
Well… this BDay has not been of the ones, Justin Bieber wanted to celebrate.
Being in London, he forked out £10.000 for a glamourous party at the
prestige club “Cirque Du Soir”. But when the party was about to start, there
was the first touchdown. Some of his younger friends did not get in.
Water can be extremely rough when you’re on it with something fast. Even the
tiniest waves can shake you around like hell. So when you’re on a fast-paced
nutshell you’d better do what? Correct: Either slow down the nutshell even if
it’s uncool or use smaller turns (if possible). Wrong: driving like this guy.
Driving sometimes can suck if you’re in a traffic jam for example.
There are several drivers developing some sort of odd workarounds to
evade the traffic jam. Many are successful but some end in epic fail!
This driver has chosen the second option. Overtaking and monorailing!
Today I thought, I’d clean up my keyboard as there was dust under almost all
of my keys. I hate dirty keyboards, you know. While haggling out the space
key to open a large gap to fork out the dust, I noticed, that the “leading track”
for the metal bracer broke on the right. Typing a lumpy space key is no fun!
As I have already reported about Groupon (a rebate-based shopping site) to go Wall Street,
and stated that Groupon might become one of the bubbles of the internet business, my fears
have partly been confirmed. Groupon has made a total loss of 351 million $. The owner of
Groupon blames international expansion investions for the high operational loss.
Seems, Microsoft is trying to bring out a similar feature, called TellMe, as Apple
has with Siri. However the successful recognition rate is far behind Apple’s Siri.
Now you could impute pro-Apple advertisement to me but I don’t need to do
any way of commercial advertisement for apple or the like. A video shows, why!
Usually concerts are something great one would
be looking forward to go on. Good music an adored
singer cool light show good sound… However it
depends on whose concert you are.
