I had a BĂĄthory-bathing-in-blood vibe when I first saw this. I havenât changed that thought yet.
On a painting criticism I donât mind the face, but the hands really are undead.
There is a UK court order in place until the outcome of her appeal.
I donât know all the details.
Private Eye, which has a whole page every fortnight dedicated to our NHS, written by someone with the pseudonym MD, has had to postpone MDâs article on the matter for this reason.

Two thoughts:
- What happens when that EMP hits other things? (Pacemakers!)
- How hard is it to add shielded wiring to ebikes?
What happens when theyâre generally available and people point them at cars? Cop cars? Ambulances? Cop radios? The cop shopâs computers?
Pointing something with a chunky coil barrel at a cop car probably will get a reaction.
Well, quiteâŚ

NPCC chair Gavin Stephens told media: âBasically, it interferes with the electric motor, to trick the electric motor into thinking it is overheating. It sends a signal to confuse the electric motor. All these electric motors apparently have an inbuilt safety system that if it thinks itâs overheating, it shuts down. At the minute, itâs like a ginormous backpack.â
Under the oversight of the NPCCâs chief scientific adviser, cops aim to have a weapon that is harmless to humans and other electronic devices. Because you donât want to accidentally brick a Tesla in the act of disabling a crook on an e-scooter, though thereâs a strong argument to be made that this counts as acceptable collateral damage.
Less acceptable would be to zap an elderly person with a pacemaker.
A victim of the crime told The Register: "From my London experience as a victim of phone theft by an e-bike and having witnessed it happen to others, I welcome this if it ends up being a practical âhit of a buttonâ solution and the motor shuts down. However, if they have to charge/setup the EMP and if the range is short, given how swift these criminals are on their e-wheels, this might not be effective at all.

7 weeks and while the remains of the bridge are being blown apart over the ship!?
Whoa, I thought companies learned how quickly isolation can become harmful to the crew of a ship during the pandemic:
What the actual fuck?!?!
