“You have repeated convictions for a range of serious driving offences over a 15-year period" - and yet, for 15 years they let this murdering bastard continue to have a drivers permit and own a car.

Good morning!
A cold but sunny morning for my walk. It was a day for seeing the neighbors -- a man I see every day during most of the year, but who has been walking in full darkness for the past month or so while I waited for at least some light. We stopped to catch up for a bit. An older woman with a British accent whom I hadn't spoken with before. And a four-footed neighbor willing to pose for a photo only 3 feet away from me.
#Today will be another writing day and a day for ignoring all the election pundits making their predictions. I am, as a friend put it, "cautiously optimistic with stomach issues."
Have a good one, my friends, and keep on keeping on.

Has anyone else been following the news of that dramatic Lear jet crash in Florida?
I notice on the dashcam footage that a car is in the process of pulling out from a side road onto the main road just meters from where the plane crashes nose-first into the road. The person/people in the car would not have been hit by the plane, but I can't imagine they'd have survived the explosion and fireball just seconds later. But I've seen no mention of this car in the reports. Has anyone else?
Ericsson ISAC offers a sensing solution to detect low-altitude drones, using already existing cellular infrastructure.
When a 5G MIMO radio wave transmits a signal, the signal reflects off the drone and can be picked by one or multiple antennas, allowing to track the drone.

It's amazing how cheap it is to buy yourself a UK politician.
