The blue lit one looks cool from a design standpoint. No idea how functional it will be.
Those look easier to climb than ordinary stairs. You don't need to move your leading foot forward as much.

Walk down them while carrying a laundry basket. Or with your eyes closed.
Or with a brace on your foot.

A former uncle of mine actually owned a radio similar to that orange one in the middle. It had an AM/FM radio and cassette deck, but I can't recall if it had those specific sliders.

Hey, say what you will, but at least electronics had some personality in the late 60's and early 70's. Now everything is a flat black slab with an invisible grill. It's gotten to the point where you have to practically ask because everything looks nearly identical (and soulless)

He has a point, though. The Desert Eagle .50 cal is, what, about 40-50% more powerful than a 44 Magnum? Given that the latter is already a freaking hand cannon, it takes a special kind of genius to pull this stunt with the former.

Just ONE of several Hangzhou police yards holding over 23 K bikes:
The city has a public program with at least 86,000 bikes to be used by anyone with 3,000 docking stations around town, but people have gotten into the habit of abandoning the bikes wherever they were finished with them.

Another ding is that this very young couple, with one child and another on its way own a $2000 handgun.
That, in and of itself demonstrates their priorities were already way out of wack.
That is awesome!
In case anyone here needs a nice reference picture of Poison Ivy I thought I would share a picture of the Poison Ivy patch just outside my back-door.
