What is the highlight of Cinco de Mayo?
Let's check your stocks. Stocks are down, so don't check your stocks. Yeah, don't do that. All right, we'll do a show as soon as I got my comments working here. Do-do-do-do-do-do. Do-do-do-do-do-do-do. Bom-bom-bom-bom-bom-bom-bom-bom. Good morning, everybody, and welcome to the highlight of human civilization, Cinco de Mayo version. If you'd like to take this experience up to levels that nobody can even understand with their tiny, shiny brains, all you need is a cup or mug or a glass, a tank or chalice, a stein, a canteen, a jug or a flask, a vessel of any kind. Fill it with your favorite liquid. I like coffee. And join me now for the unparalleled pleasure of the dopamine hit of the day, the thing that makes everything better. It's called the simultaneous sip. It happens now. Go. Ah, terrific. Well, you'd be surprised to hear that according to Daily Coffee News, There was a study of 6,000 adults, and they found out that coffee does have a protective effect against dementia.
So if my audience has a low level of dementia, now you know why. It's all the coffee. I saw a post on X from the government office of nuclear energy, and they were touting this microreactor, a nuclear microreactor called the Marville. And it's the size of a car, and it has enough energy to power 10 homes. Now, does that sound like something that could be practical? So it's only the size of a car, but it's a nuclear power plant. But it can only power 10 homes. The question that jumps out is, how long does it last? How hard is it to do maintenance? And then what do you do with the waste when it's done? I'm sure they have answers to that. But... I don't know if I would do the nuclear microreactor before I did the solar panels on the Tesla battery.
I might go for the battery first. Although I was a little afraid of batteries because there's a small but real risk of fire from a battery. I don't know what the odds are, but not very high. Speaking of batteries and speaking of Tesla, Wonderful Engineering is reporting that There's a new Tesla 4680 battery that was, I think, first teased in 2020. So if you're looking for how long does it take a technical breakthrough to become a product, about five years, even if you're Tesla. So apparently this battery is way more efficient, and it's simpler to assemble, and it boosts your energy efficiency, and it's going to be in Tesla soon. So every time you hear me say, there's another breakthrough in battery technology, you can add five to seven years before you'll see it.
corey i saw a post by mario and awful i i see a lot of the news on his posts on x they're very excellent by the way you should follow if you're not following mario norfolk n-a-w-f-a-l you really should because uh he summarizes the news better than anybody i've seen Anyway, one of the things that he highlighted was there's an AI scanner that can identify disease in people before they even feel bad. So I guess it takes 2,000 images in 20 seconds. It's got 70 sensors and 50 million data points. And it's already worked. It's flagged major health problems in people who looked totally fine. I'm not sure I want to know. You know, there's always, for a while now, there's been a technology where you can get a private full body scan just in case there's anything going on in your body that you didn't know about. But a lot of people found that when they did those scans, they would kind of routinely find things they didn't know about. And then they'd be all panicked about, well, no, what's wrong with my liver?
Even if there's nothing wrong. Well, Target, the store, according to the Postmillennial, is going to cut back on the self-checkout. Guess why? Why do you think Target stores are going to get rid of their self-checkout? Now, they say cut back, but I think that means in certain locations they'll get rid of it. It's because of theft. So apparently people just pretend they're self-checking and then just take their stuff. it's theft yeah so i think that probably has everything to do with the location of the store and you know in my neighborhood Probably even in Mind Everyone, there'd be a little theft, but probably not a lot. Here's an update on TikTok. Does it seem like the TikTok story just sort of disappeared?
