This is for strictly mildly interesting material. If it's too interesting, it doesn't belong. If it's not interesting, it doesn't belong.

This is obviously an objective criteria, so the mods are always right. Or maybe mildly right? Ahh.. what do we know?

Just post some stuff and don't spam.

In Norway, laser weapons are being used to remove sea lice from farmed salmon. The Stingray Laser System uses cameras to scan the fish, identify lice, and then deliver a laser pulse to kill them. (files.catbox.moe)

I can see a day when we the non-rich have tattooed barcodes, implanted chips, and god knows what else about our persons, we will be scanned to death, system would choose who to zap (kill) or just persecute in some manor.

I had this job where a idiot director thought about forcing us workers to wear wrist bands with barcodes, our timecards have same barcode, everything we do is tracked by barcodes, thankfully was rejected.....but upper management considered it to much for us workers comfort ๐Ÿ˜ž
