Re: Nothing in particular

'Katana Blade Vigilante Unleashes Fury On Bike Thieves'

https://funker530.com/video/katana-blad … e-thieves/

Wild footage is circulating on social media showing a bike theft operation being thwarted by a modern day Samurai.

CCTV security cameras show at least three wanna-be bike thieves breaking into the parking garage of an apartment building. The scumbag criminals can be seen grabbing bikes and wheeling them toward the door.

The footage then transition to an elevator as an old man, likely the superintendent, is watching the security cameras via his phone. With him is a younger man, armed with a katana blade, putting his beautiful flowing locks of hair up into a chonmage topknot before he goes into battle.

The vigilante samurai bursts out of the elevator like a blood drunk berserker and sprints toward the perpetrators. The thieves cannot believe what they are seeing and drop their stolen goods and run for their lives.

Aftermath footage shows the hero returning the bikes to the building. He has trained his entire life for this one moment, and he rose to the occasion.

Re: Nothing in particular

Perhaps one for SETI the Arty the AI and Computer people

Piet is a programming language in which programs look like abstract paintings. The language is named after Piet Mondrian, who pioneered the field of geometric abstract art. I would have liked to call the language Mondrian, but someone beat me to it with a rather mundane-looking scripting language. Oh well, we can't all be esoteric language writers I suppose.

These are sample programs for the Piet programming language I invented.
