I've finally finished my Tinder bio, what do you guys think?

 

[Djoga'Ro]

Thinking: "What am I supposed to think?"

"What am I supposed to think?"

What I was asking was, do you think that my Tinder bio will attract any rich 40-55 year olds that live in the USA to be my "friend"?

 

[Djoga'Ro]

Probably. Though, I'm wondering why you don't mention Peony. Ain't that a bit sneaky?

She didn't seem too bothered when I showed her the bio. She's out shopping at the moment due to needing a few things (some rope, bleach and a knife apparently).

Quote: "In a Wuhan-esque study, Chinese scientists are experimenting with a mutant COVID-19 strain that is 100% lethal to “humanized” mice. The deadly virus — known as GX_P2V — attacked the brains of mice that were engineered to reflect genetic makeup similar to people, according to a study shared last week out of Beijing."

I just heard on the radio Pakistan responded Iranian attacks with missiles against Iran. I think Pakistan was a nuclear power, and Iran might be ?
Too sad to look for sources, sorry. So there's war in Palestine, Israel, Lebanon, Iran, Syria, Pakistan, Yemen, Iraq, not to forget Sudan, Ukraine, etc.

It's not a source for my previous post, and I haven't read it all, but this report from CIDOB (ca, es, en) is frightening:

2023 has been one of the most conflictive years in the world since the end of World War II. In just twelve months, political violence has increased by 27%. It grew in intensity and frequency.

It is estimated that 1 in 6 people in the world have been exposed to conflict in the last twelve months.

Summary: Boeing 737-9000ER uses the same plug design as the 737-9 (MAX), which was in the news for losing a door panel mid flight.

Title: "FAA Statement on Recommending Visual Inspections of Boeing 737-900ER Mid-Exit Door Plugs"
Statement: "As an added layer of safety, the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) is recommending that operators of Boeing 737-900ER aircraft visually inspect mid-exit door plugs to ensure the door is properly secured. The Boeing 737-900ER is not part of the newer MAX fleet but has the same door plug design. In accordance with their Safety Management Systems, operators conducted additional inspections on the Boeing 737-900ER following the loss of a mid-cabin door plug on a Boeing 737-9 MAX airplane on January 5th."

I prefer the butler cafe because it's more sedate, Peony prefers the maid cafe because in her words it's "fun and energetic". She quite fancies working in a maid cafe so has been practising on me. I'm not sure she's quite got the hang of it yet because I doubt that the maids are allowed to sit on your lap or drink your drinks/eat your food.

Summary: In the US the state Texas clashes with the federal government regarding closing/opening the border. A deadline was set for Friday (26 Jan) to provide access to the border to the federal government, we'll see what happens afterwards.
Quote: "President Joe Biden is facing renewed calls to federalize the Texas National Guard after Governor Greg Abbott published an explosive open letter accusing the White House of having 'broken the compact between the United States and the States' with its immigration policy."

Tentacle robot can gently grasp fragile objects

Taking inspiration from nature, SEAS researchers designed a new type of soft, robotic gripper that uses a collection of thin tentacles to entangle and ensnare objects, similar to how jellyfish collect stunned prey. Alone, individual tentacles, or filaments, are weak. But together, the collection...
